If Labour loses the next election they’ll only have themselves to blame but WE will suffer the consequences. They will find themselves in the wilderness like the Tories, having failed to learn a wildly obvious lesson - that acting like Farage only benefits Farage. Fucking morons.

United Arab Emirates company Blue Carbon's plan to buy up rights to land in Africa as carbon offsets is really a plan to sell "permits to pollute" after "failing to mitigate at the source" says @mohadow, director of the climate and energy think tank @PowerShftAfrica.

🌹 Luiz, filho de Lindu. O menino teimoso que venceu a seca, o preconceito e o destino. O operário que virou presidente, sem coroa, sem farda, sem herança só com fé e coragem. Hoje o Brasil celebra não só o homem, mas a história que ele carrega no olhar. Lula é verbo. É

Zack Polanski is using a secret trick called "saying what you believe," and it is terrifying establishment politicians and their client journalists. Because they're more comfortable with "lying" and "pretending to not understand."

Nothing makes me angrier than seeing a people with centuries of culture, intellect, and pride reduced to hunger and ruin, by the same rabid squatters who spilled from their shtetls only because no Western capital would take them. The same parasites who cry “never again” while
