    Who said anything about tweaking?

    The point is - the #toriesOut are blinded by #populist emotional nonsense

    #labour are not

    I respect #green party - but they are not in the running to win the #nextGE

    Israel told Gazans to move to the south to be safe but they still get bombed there. I heard on the news some went back to the North because living conditions were so bad in the south & still not safe.

    62% of all ethnic miniority MPs in the current parliament sit for #labour

    Of candidates vying to be new MPs in #2024GE replacing retiring sitting #labour members, half are from ethnic minority backgrounds

    Certain amount of smoke-blowing going on here I think....

    yes, it all sounds familiar from the #healthservice doesn't it.... the #Tories small-state 'philosophy' (although its more like a prejudice to be frank) which underpins their agressive defunding of the #publicsector while syphoning off money to their chums is having widespread real wild consequences.... the difficulty is the media often don't want to put 2 + 2 to get 4!

    I kept seeing #RiotWomen being pushed on IPlayer and thought it would be something fairly sickly-sweet. But I watched the first episode today, and I realised how wrong I was! TBH, I’d have to make sure I was is a good place to be able to watch it.

    I’m hoping it keeps going like it started.

    Difficult decisions are going to have to made and there needs to be more of a national conversation I agree.

    At the moment we’re framing it around holiday homes, caravans and in this recent case in #Happisburgh - graves of the dead:

    These things are nice to preserve, but not vital. The risk will soon be to whole communities.

  7. @junesim63 Did you know that "nuclear" and "unclear" are #anagrams?

    Weather update.

    The day started dreich... this is 11.40 in #WhitleyBay which is 3.38 miles from #SouthShields as the crow flies (8 miles from the #Toon / #NewcastleuponTyne).

  9. @junesim63 Deaths in this war were, and still are, completely preventable.

    Sinwar and the other jihadis hide safely in their burrows and hijack food deliveries, while Haniyeh lives in decadent luxury in Doha, and their children are left to suffer.

    You can still save lives: Return the hostages and surrender now.

  10. @junesim63 “ An Israeli official, who spoke to NPR on condition of anonymity to offer a preliminary assessment, confirmed the strike and said the mosque grounds contained a tunnel shaft used by militants, and that Hamas fighters from the elite Nukhba battalion had regularly used the mosque for cover.”

    Why, whenever a privitised company fucks up, is the tax-payer expected to bail it out so that it can continue to trade?

    They should be put into administration, with the entire industry renationalised without delay.

  12. @junesim63 I haven't got around to listening yet, but #AviShlaim interviewed for Prospect #podcast - Why he is advocating a One-State Solution.

    sphinx.acast.com/p/acast/s/hea

    Emeritus professor of international relations at the University of Oxford, Avi Shlaim joins Ellen Halliday to discuss his experience as an Arab Jew and how it has informed his perspective on the Israel-Palestine conflict.

    Yikes!

    Enclosures are as much a modern theme as a medieval theme, it seems.

    Common land for common folk!

  14. @junesim63 Perhaps, June, the only advantage of being disabled is you get a sort of entitlement to have a go at strangers in public knowing they can't fire back.

    "You scab," I retorted.

  15. @junesim63 the hush hush way in which western media report about the daily attrocities #Israel commits in #gaza, #westBank and neighbouring countries is beyond me. Even dripfeeding media like #theGuardian do not directly charge #israeliGenocide for the crimes it commits daily. archive.ph/u3VGd

  16. @junesim63 first universities are (ridiculously) transformed into 'businesses', propped up in large part by the exorbitant fees charged to international students. (Don't get me started on the change in student attitudes as the fees increased, but that's a whole other topic.)

    Then the idiots in charge decide to change the business model without consultation or alternatives.

    'Tories REALLY don't know what the hell they're doing!

    Turns out I lied (unintentionally).

    I thought I wouldn't be able to cope with the tension. But in the end I watched it all.

    I feel so sad for #GarethSouthgate . He's a wonderful human being.

  18. @junesim63 @ChrisMayLA6

    Also, such reforms will make it harder for abuse victims to flee.

    ...and why on earth shouldn't people be allowed to move to another part of the country just because they want to.

    Just another example of #CruelTories

  19. @junesim63 Hamas should be there. Without their ideology and actions, it would not happened.

  20. @junesim63

    Not for nothing, but any attempt to legislate language fails.

    #sapirwhorfhypothesis #newspeak

    Perhaps you have in mind governmental policy.
