There'll come a time, sooner rather than later, when Benjamin Netanyahu bitterly regrets winning the election that saw him 'respond' to the horrific Oct 7th attacks with an actual, honest to goodness genocide. When he's arrested and charged, and esp. when he's convicted of crimes against humanity.

1. Replying to a question on my MMT101 Substack. "What happens to tax money if it is not used to fund government spending?' Good question. One a lot of people have in their head. However, it's based on the wrong premise: the idea that paying taxes is giving the govt. money.

The Serbian Far Right has now been ousted from govt. Time for the same filthy operators to be ousted from Israel, severely restricted in the US, and prevented from returning in Brazil. Here's hoping! ๐Ÿคž

Since I posted, Brazil - a country for which I seem to have a great affinity, even though I've never been - has been saved from iniquity. Lula faces big challenges, and I think it's obvious he won't run again next time. So who to replace him? But for now - victory! Next up: Israel.

1. I'm late to this, but there's still time for a word on James Talarico's appearance on Jimmy Kimmel's show. It's important, because I don't think most people on the left appreciate how threatening he is.

Danny Tommo's 'patriot platform' vigilantes were refused service in The George Inn, Portsmouth. They demanded to know why, despite the fact they do not have to be given a reason. Always make bigots feel unwelcome. Show the pub some love for doing the right thing. Things you love to see โœŠโค๏ธ

In other incredible headlines, some senior journalists are waking up to the fact the far right saying themselves they are not far right might not have been the truth Truly astounding not to be ashamed at admitting waking up to this is 2026...

What mask?

For the same reason they're pretending ITV didn't drop a hayloft load of shit onto Farage and Reform's head the other night...

This is a non story. The police chief cites actual figures. Farage challenges actual figures. Farage has no basis for doing this. Why did the BBC run this?

On this day in 1929, a Czech Jewish boy was born. On 20 November 1942 he was deported to Theresienstadt with his father, and on 4 October 1944 to Auschwitz, where he perished. His father had left for the camp on 28 September 1944. His name was Jiล™รญ Bondy Support @auschwitzmemorial.bsky.social

The Exposure documentary showing undercover footage of many Reform officials being racist and sexist is on ITV at 10.20pm tonight, so whatever you do, don't watch it.

2. In this article I examine why we need a new approach; I suggest what that approach should be and how we can get there. We are facing huge challenges right now โ€“ itโ€™s long past the time for excuses. Read on: tinyurl.com/fyhzbu5h

60 YEARS OF BLACK PANTHER HISTORY! They stood up to police brutality, fought racial injustice, and did a hell of a lot more than history books acknowledge. They fed hungry children, opened free health clinics, educated communities, and built more than 65 survival programs.

Thereโ€™s too much caution about calling Farage and Reform racist. They have no such timidity when they threaten to strip us of our rights and protections, to mass deport people and kill them at sea. They routinely insult, perv, vilify and hate people. You donโ€™t โ€˜niceโ€™ that away. You call it out.
