Given the £22 billion of unclaimed benefits apparently in the system, there is absolutely no need whatsoever for the government to reduce benefits for people with disabilities or who develop a life changing illness in two years time. #KeirStarmer #Disabled #LabourParty #LabourCuts #WelfareNotWarfare #welfarereformBill Liz Kendall is a listening kind of woman but can’t seem to hear Labour discontent on welfare bill | John Crace | The Guardian
People objecting to this kind of mass murder are what Starmer and the current Labour administration are calling ‘anti-Semitic’ or ‘terrorist’. He’s got a very twisted view of justice and rights - particularly offensive govern his previous career as a ‘human rights lawyer’.
Looks like proscribing #PalestineAction may not be the quick solution Starmers government would like. It seems similar lack of consultation and engagement as that not done with Human Rights, medical and trans groups and supporters is happening. And it’s markedly similar to the lack of consultation over the negative effects of the proposed slashing of PIPs and other benefits for disabled people. A wake-up call to people, not to let an authoritarian government ride rough-shod over all our basic human rights. As a former Human Rights Lawyer, this should be elementary for Kier Starmer PM. #HumanRights #Autonomy #Starmer #Labour #UKPolitics Judge grants Palestine Action urgent hearing to try to stop ban taking effect | Counter-terrorism policy | The Guardian

Do fvck off Bridget. That’s a choice people make, and the Labour government is ensuring it’s financially impossible. Add in the lack of decent homes, high rents, job insecurity, two child allowance cap, health service, etc ad nauseum. Here’s an idea for Bridget - give up her highly paid employment and stay home popping them out, one every twelve months. Her predecessor, Rees-Mogg fathered six, and then his wife clearly and unequivocally said ‘ENOUGH’. When multi-millionaires aren’t prepared to have vast families [with the notable exception of Elon Musk], why should the rest of us? #Autonomy #ProChoice #MyBodyMyChoice Bridget Phillipson says she wants more young people in UK to have children | Bridget Phillipson | The Guardian
Oh dear, Glastonbury have caved and are concerned by what Bob Vylan said on stage. This isn’t good. As for the cops - there’s nothing to find, as all the viewers know. But the thin-skinned Starmer and the JB of D want heads on spikes. Kneecap, Bob Vylan Glastonbury shows examined by police
Seems the thin-skinned #Starmer really is digging into his authoritarian tendencies. He’s now got #MetPol investigating #Kneecap and #BobVylan after their stage performances at #Glastonbury. He’s learned nothing about Irish history, or oppression anywhere in the world, or how the British State creates heroes by attempting to suppress people fighting for rights and the truth.
