"On arriving in Aston before the game it was clear that locals weren’t taking any chances. On Witton Road groups gathered in the streets ready to respond to any threats to their community...." A report back from Villa FLAF at Villa v Maccabi last night. https://t.co/2SIqEhIlA7

Condemn the violence of the far-right and their supporters, but questions need asking as to the wisdom of #SUTR in returning only two days after being attacked at the same spot? This is suicidal without the necessary political strategy & tactics to counter it in that community.
Police vans attacked outside the Bell Hotel in Epping during an anti-immigration protest. Comes days after two security staff were attacked near the hotel in what is being treated as racially aggravated assault. Some in the crowd lobbing objects at police and counter protestors

Muhannad al-Lili, a footballer for Nadi Khadamat al-Maghazi, has died from injuries he sustained when Israel bombed his family’s home in the Maghazi refugee camp, Gaza. He’s the 439th player killed. Human dignity should not be confined to one side of a line on a map.

Tim Davie's face would've been quite the picture yesterday. Censoring Kneecap from the live coverage only for Bob Vylan to come on and do this. The moral panic from the establishment is a sign of how fragile they are. They know they're on the wrong side of history here.
While the BBC skipped Irish band Kneecap in its live broadcast from the Glastonbury Festival due to their pro-Palestine stance, British duo Bob Vylan appeared on iPlayer, the BBC’s online streaming service, chanting “Death to the IDF” and “Free Palestine.”

The Terrorism Act has been criticised in the past because the broad language it uses leaves it open to government abuse. This is an example of that. Pal Action haven't blown anyone up. They've damaged military equipment used to commit and facilitate crimes against humanity.

Ballymena Burning Some of the comments, if you can pick up the lingo, are revealing. Allegedly, police originally suggested people mark their homes with union flags to avoid attack, neighbours “ratted” neighbours, “only Protestants are safe?” #BallymenaBurning #HillbillyRacism

The creepy AI aside there is a genuine safeguarding issue here. These groups have consistently attracted predators. Wronguns like Andrew Rogers (pictured), Billy Charlton, Richard Price and others who've been close to the EDL/DFLA shouldn't be anywhere near children or survivors

The washed up ex-Spurs hooligan who's organised this demo famously had to issue a plea to BLM a couple of years ago when he said him and his mates were just "protecting statues". We all know what happened then....this is why he has AI make his posters. https://t.co/O8G1SucvqS

I don't know what's creepier, a bunch of middle aged men with public order offences coming out to "protect children" or the AI commands they're putting into their posters. There's more diversity here than any EDL/DFLA demo we've ever seen.

More on the two tier service that a celebrity grifter like Yaxley-Lennon gets while inside. These are privileges not afforded most prisoners. https://t.co/YFDT11DHP3

The activist has a ‘substantially more permissive’ segregation regime than other prisoners

4 hours of phone calls a day, more visiting time than any other prisoner, several hours of daily exercise, access to a laptop, emails, TV and he comes out looking like he's spent 6 months stranded on an island. His act is really coming along, now cough up so he can buy a razor.

It was sickening to see far right trauma vultures immediately jump online to speculate about the drivers ethnicity and motivation, without a single shred of evidence. Using other people's suffering to promote your own twisted and divisive agenda is disgusting and has to stop.

Our thoughts are with all those affected by the horrific car ramming at Liverpool's title celebrations yesterday. We wish a full recovery to those still being treated for their injuries. No one should suffer such trauma while out celebrating their teams success

You might have thought what kind of idiots call a "national strike" on a Saturday, but you didn't consider the cake sale did you. Who's the stupid one now eh?

With the grift artist known as "Tommy Robinson" soon out of prison and free to return to his life in Spain, it's worth reminding everyone of who he is and how he came to prominence.

We understand that Dave is currently working on a cover of Chumbawamba's Tubthumping with the alternative lyrics, "I get knocked down and I get knocked down again"

Banner outside the Emirates stadium today in support of Mark Bonnick. The 61-year-old was kitman for Arsenal for over 20 years when he was fired on Christmas Eve last year for posts opposing Israel’s genocide against Palestinians.

"Big diddy" Dave Oldershaw, of Chelmsford, got put on his backside after confronting anti-fascists during a UKIP rally in Bristol on Saturday. Embarrassingly for Dave he then claimed the grazes on his arm that he sustained when hitting the deck were a result of being stabbed.

Fair play to this bloke. It shows how easy Golding has had it when a couple of honest words from the British public has him flapping. https://t.co/I1TEyqIxUq
