Do not forget that #PoliticalParties under #capitalism always betray the workers. On #ThisDayInHistory in 1924, ~200,000 British dockworkers went on #strike, and the #Labour party under #RamsayMacDonald invoked Emergency Powers to suppress it. They failed and workers got a raise.
A Socialist in Palestine penned by #RamsayMacDonald, celebrates the #zionism to come. That was 1922
Fast fwd 104 years, #zionist Starmer, the #LabourFriendsofIsrael cabal are still at it, choking on the fact #israel is a genocidal apartheid state
All depressingly familiar & unacceptable
Just some of the monographs consulted for my "stupendously well-researched" (West Highland Free Press) book, An Odious Campaign, available now from @tippermuirbooks.bsky.social

From 1931 it looked as though Britainβs first #Labour prime minister would be its last. Is it time to reappraise the political reputation of #RamsayMacDonald?
