The mentality we've seen lately with the Far Right is the same you see in prison. The lowest of us are never happier when they finally find some high ground. The moment they can attach their permanent rage to kids they see it as carte blanche for blind violence. "Touch my kids I will do time" being the classic. They spend so long at the moral bottom that they cannot wait to spring into action when they see something they perceive as open and shut. "kids are hurt, that means I can knock some heads". To them the worst thing known to the rest of us, children in peril, is just an excuse for them. It's not a tragedy it's a starting pistol. You see them on here all the time, the moment anyone disagrees with them within minutes the word 'nonce' comes out. The worst, lowest most vile thing is just a casual daily insult to them. Devaluing the word to almost nothing. They don't care about what happens to kids. What kind of animal brings a crate of beer and bricks to a vigil for murdered children? They see themselves as avenging angels, as judgement, as action. They are none of these things, and deep down they know what the reality is ; they are the same sort of animal who did the killing. They have to act or see themselves mirrored. It's the same a shivving a nonce inside, it makes them forget their own crimes. For a brief moment they get to be superior. Inferior is where they live the rest of the time. In the gutter.

Been listening to this brilliant album from @nevclay on @Bandcamp. Looking forward to spinning the vinyl too. A lovely antidote to today's troubled world. – at Newcastle Upon Tyne, England

You can be offended by a parody of da Vinci’s Last Supper because you revere da Vinci. But if you’re offended because it mocks Christianity, that’s a bit silly because it isn’t actually the Last Supper, it’s a painting, not a fucking selfie.

This shameful, misleading, irresponsible post is still up. Didn’t take long for Nigel Farage to misuse his position as an MP.
The politics of the subcontinent are currently playing out on the streets of Leeds. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

Football is a simple game. Twenty-two men chase a ball for 90 minutes and at the end, the G̶e̶r̶m̶a̶n̶s̶ English always win. All the best for the final on Sunday, England! #EURO2024
WE HAVE DONE IT 🤩 The #ThreeLions have reached the EURO final for a second time in a row… and in our history!

Boris Johnson put his own brother & the son of a sanctioned KGB spy in the House of Lords. On his *first day in the job* PM Sir Keir Starmer has promoted a former chief scientific advisor & a businessman whose work rehabilitating former prisoners has improved countless lives…

The Prime Minister has the power to appoint anyone as a Minister, first making them a peer if need be. Some have used that power to appoint friends, cronies, donors, even relatives. Starmer has used it to appoint people who are experts in their field @10DowningStreet

As Prime Minister, you can appoint almost anyone you like to be a Minister. And we’ve seen some truly outrageous appointments - mates, cronies, donors & relatives. It is such an abuse of power. To see @10DowningStreet today appointing experts in their field gives me such hope.

Now more than ever let's get behind & support these young people. We can all see what's happening & who's being set up to be the face of defeat. We are going to be gas lit with explanations & justifications, but those deciding who goes on the back pages know what they’re doing. Let's keep our energy focused on giving these players pure love & support throughout the tournament.
Saka came on the 65' minute. He only played 25 for minutes.

Don't celebrate too well just yet. These "martyrs" have a way of spinning their crimes. Hitler, in jail, 1925.

For the uninitiated; here's what @narc_magazine said about HMRC and their Boots on The Ground - "HMRC’s sound is a raw, powerful protest, articulated with a cynical wit, perfect for our troubled times." narcmagazine.com/track-revie…
Great energy from HMRC at @ASTfestival yesterday. Catch them supporting @ImperialWaxBand here on Thursday June 6th, not many tickets remaining though.
