It looks like Trump's intervened and nixed (as Americans say) Hegseth's plan to livestream Nidal Malik Hasan's execution. A rare moment of lucidity from the Orange One. One to cut out and keep. thehill.com/homenews/615...

The Tories’ new idea for ‘welfare’ is actually an old idea that's been resurrected. In 2013, Alec Shelbrooke introduced a bill to put benefits payments onto cash cards. It failed and he withdrew it. I wrote about it here. buddyhell.wordpress.com/2013/03/16/t...

Everything good, worthy or born of the indomitable spirit of human kindness is ‘coming under increased scrutiny’, BBC. That’s the whole idea.
BBC News's Simons Jones says the RNLI is 'facing increased scrutiny'. It isn't 'increased scrutiny'; it's threats of violence and intimidation. This is how the BBC not only misinforms, but encourages scum like "Danny Tommo" and his clown army.

On the day that European Union again refused any sanctions against #Israel, EU 's High Representative & Commission VP Kaja Kallas (@kajakallas.bsky.social) preached once again in support of #Ukraine. Sanctimonious hypocrisy and racist double-standards are Union's forte. bsky.app/profile/kaja...
Russia bombed civilians at record levels this summer. Yet Russians continued to enter and enjoy the hospitality of European countries. There was broad support today among Ministers to move with an EU visa entry ban for Russian ex-combatants and tougher visa restrictions on Russian tourists.

"Keir Starmer Is Why Everyone Hates Politicians" The former PM misled his way to the top and now he’s walking away from politics altogether. His decision to quit Parliament so quickly is a reminder he was only ever interested in power. From Zeteo UK:

This is such an early catastrophic failure of leadership from Andy Burnham. It makes it very clear that ultimately he isn't serving people in this country (or nature), he is serving private equity and the interests of the super rich. This is why we currently live in Rip Off Britain.
Andy Burnham’s slippery approach to council housing (he isn’t shifting social housing spending to council after all) raises questions over what other campaign promises he will water down almost immediately (Thames Water feels like another) www.ft.com/content/ab1a...

Yes, it’s the whole herd of tame wingnuts that the British press keeps close at hand, in case they’re useful for kicking one minority group or another. This entire shitshow is helpfully illuminating on what’s been going on in Britain for at least ten years now, and who is to blame for it.

There's no need to perform indignation. It is plain and obvious: capitalists need racism, particularly in organic crises. They won't think twice before giving delirious racists like Cofnas a platform to cry victim. This has been THE central strategy of the right in the last decade.
WSJ giving Cofnas a platform to insist that he's just a brave truth teller but also a small bean birthday boy. People should lose their jobs over this.
