Nothing to see or everything to see
Palantir must be removed from the NHS
I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x POS convicted felon who incites political violence, adjudicated rapist & pedophile Trump did on J6 🩸🩸🩸
-Morgan J. Freeman
"I walked into a situation in which there was already a very, very strong expectation, coming from number 10, that [Mandelson] needed to be in post and in America as quickly as humanly possible," Olly Robbins tells MPs.
"There was a generally dismissive attitude to his vetting clearance"
'He said: ‘The recent spike in energy prices and disruption to supply chains will be the biggest jolt to the jobs market since the pandemic.
Faced with higher costs and soft demand, we think businesses will reduce headcount, causing almost 250,000 people to become unemployed.’
‘It means Rachel Reeves, the Chancellor, can expect to see a similarly dire outlook’ from her own government department.'
'A separate report issued yesterday by the giant accountancy company Deloitte found that finance chiefs at the biggest UK businesses are already cutting back spending plans and taking actions that will cut back on economic activity and hiring.'
'The working class has shown its determination never to be driven back to the conditions of the ‘hungry 1930s’ or the poverty of the 19th century.'
'The powerful working class will not accept the TUC passively allowing its wages, jobs and all the gains of the Welfare State to be sacrificed to keep a decaying bankrupt UK capitalist system from collapsing and taking down the working class with it.'
'No attempt has been made to even warn the working class that British capitalism is crashing under the impact of this crisis and that the ruling class will be demanding that the Starmer Labour government inflicts all the pain on the backs of workers and youth.'
'This barrage of dire warnings and predictions of a massive surge in unemployment and the UK plunging headlong into a recession from the IMF and leading capitalist economic analysts, has met with a deafening silence from the TUC.'
'With their profits threatened, the bosses are determined to make the working class and youth pay for the catastrophic crisis of capitalism through mass unemployment and wage cutting.'
Something extraordinary – yet predictable – has happened over recent days on Facebook.
Fake accounts that usually post anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim content generated using AI to fuel division and hate in UK are now pushing out AI-gen content asking:
"Should the UK produce its own fuel again?"
Literally devastating news
And almost certainly even worse because the models don't include the effects of huge volumes of Greenland meltwater pouring into the North Atlantic at a rate of 30 million tonnes AN HOUR

Astonishing to see how people with zero chance-and I do mean ZERO CHANCE-of ever owning a second home worth >$5mm in the 5 boroughs are parroting the doom & gloom about Mamdani’s luxury tax on such. Those same people-if they live in NYC-are the beneficiaries of the tax. YOU BENEFIT, KNUCKLEHEADS!
Our NHS is not for sale.
But when MPs accept large donations from figures associated with private healthcare, the public has a right to ask how that might shape future policy.

When great evil is in power how you oppose it is a test of your character that will define you. Trump is a liar, a bully, a boaster, a womaniser, a warmonger and a prejudiced hater. That is pretty much the definition of evil

This weekend in Barcelona, Pedro Sanchez gathered the world's left leaders for an anti-Trump rally - including the presidents of 🇧🇷🇿🇦🇲🇽🇨🇴.
But Sanchez was the only European leader there. Because he's the only real left PM Europe has.
Will the Trump effect end decades of conservative rule over the EU?
WATCH: Researchers at Stanford University modeled how many people could die or be disabled in 25 years if vaccines for polio, measles, rubella or diphtheria were no longer available.
Mayor Mamdani's new tax impacts 13,000 homes owned by the top 1.%, and will generate an additional $500M minimum in tax revenue for working New Yorkers.
Watching blue collar MAGAs panic over "higher taxes" is amusing. This Will HELP them. Here are the details:

Tice failed to pay £100,000 tax on profits of firms linked to Reform — story via The Sunday Times
Richard tax-cheat Tice.
And remember when Farage’s partner bought his Clacton house somehow, so he could avoid paying taxes on it?
That is all Reform UK Party Ltd exists for: money.
Just look at the markets tomorrow. Won't be surprised by some irregular activity before Trump makes a statement. Insider trading off of war crimes.

Mamdani is framing his still-fresh tenure not only as a measure of his ability to govern but as a sign that the ideology of democratic socialism can work in practice, not just in theory.

Israeli forces have destroyed over 1,000 homes daily since March 2, according to Lebanon’s scientific research council.
In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.
Apple is closing its first unionized store in the country.
Reminder that Apple spent $700B+ on stock buybacks over the past decade.
CEO Tim Cook raked in over $74M in compensation in 2025 — 650 times the median Apple employee's pay.
The greed of union-busters knows no end.
