It has taken over five years of murderous chaos for Republican voters to start to see what was obvious all along: that Donald Trump should not be trusted with a box of matches, let alone the most powerful office on Earth. That's the power of propaganda for you.

Lord Mandelson is gone. The trouble is that his allies, acolytes, confederates, proteges and bag carriers still dominate the Labour Party.

White House sends delegation to deliver war ultimatum to Cuba While the last visit took place under conditions of a temporary diplomatic reopening, the latest delegation presented an ultimatum under threat of military aggression.

The US is giving Cuba an ultimatum: enact market reforms and open your economy to foreign investment or face a military invasion. This is a continuation of American attempts to reimpose colonial shackles on Latin America. www.wsws.org/en/articles/...

Private firms providing services to NHS made £1.6bn profit in two years, research finds Exclusive: MPs say profit-making levels in England are ‘scandalous’ and call for cap on amount private companies can make from NHS

Private firms got £12bn NHS contracts.

Private equity, offshore tax haven firms big winners. Donations to Ministers pay dividends.

£1.6bn profit in 2 yrs. Enough to pay for 9,178 doctors or 19,428 nurses

Health service “taken for a ride”.

Say NO to privatisation. Must expand NHS capacity

Why is the Labour government preparing a crackdown on protests against the illegal war it’s enabling – and the cost-of-living crisis it risks fuelling – instead of acting to stop people struggling?

No longer can Labour claim to have the odd minister who "gets it."

They're bought and paid for.

Reform: Starmer’s cap on expat donations breaches human rights.

Ridiculous accusation.

Reform wants money from tax exiles who don't live in the UK.

Must ban all political donations/bribes. They enable the super rich to hijack public choices, destroy our rights.

Spain closes airspace to us military over Iran war, widening rift with US

Spain closes airspace to us military over Iran war, widening rift with US

Labour saying Starmer 'keeping Britain out of the war' will be part of their local elections campaign.

But it's untrue. There are 27 US B52s at RAF Fairford, launching bombing raids. Starmer has made Britain part of Trump's war.

He could have just said no, like Spain's PM.
