  4. So Nigel Farage has beaten a man in a bin. But he's in deep trouble, and he knows it | Owen Jones

  5. I want to like #CliveLewis MP more than I can manage. Somehow, he always disapoints as more cautious than I expect.

    But I did hugely enjoy his description of #Starmer’s "reset" speech. Vogon Poetry is the 3rd-worst poetry in the world, which is roughly where Starmer fits in a ranking of leaders.

  6. #WesStreeting for leader of the so-called "#LabourParty"?

    #AngelaRayner's tax tangles are unresolved. #AndyBurnham is still out of Parliament. Of the three main leadership hopefuls, only #Streeting is ready.

    So if #CatherineWest triggers a leadership contest, Streeting may win.

    I hate Streeting's politics, but I was struck by #OwenJones & #AaronBastani toying with the idea that a Streeting leadership might be helpful, since it would speed the destruction of the rotten Labour Party.

    > Raffi Berg may be fighting for damages, but it's really the #BBC in the dock – for being utterly wedded to an editor whose objectivity on Israel is so clearly in doubt

  8. Jonathan Cook: Breaking Out of Media Group-Think

    The Western media’s failure to report the reality of Gaza didn’t start on Oct. 7. It’s always been like this. Here’s why journalists won’t tell you the truth about Palestine. By Jonathan Cook Jonathan-Cook.net [This is an adaptation of a…
