    Here’s Gerald O’Conner CEO of Impact Plastics posing next to his Porsche 911 Turbo.

    He told his workers if they didn’t work during Hurricane Helena they’d be fired.

    6 workers died.

    Sure hope he has fun driving that Porsche around that his workers enabled him to buy.

    Iranian leader has given a speech about the Israelis and the West.

    A brief summation it’s a long speech link below:

    The West wants Israel to secure the regions oil and gas for the West.

    The West offers in return to produce goods to be sold in the region, for a profit. This last bit, is scarcasm.

    Khamenei: “Their policy is to turn the [Zionist] regime into a gateway for exporting energy from the region to the Western world while facilitating the import of goods and technology from the West to the region

    Ms Duffield accuses the government of pursuing “cruel and unnecessary” policies and attacks the prime minister for “hypocrisy” for accepting gifts.

    In her letter she accused the prime minister and his top team of “sleaze, nepotism and apparent avarice” which are “off the scale”.

    I saw that ALB. I actually scammed through it. Good point.

    Owen Jones on X, highlighting Starmers hypocrisy over intuition fees. Starmer was critical of the tory government over the spiralling cost of intuition fees.

    It’s today reported that Labour will now hike tuition fees by 13.5% to £10,500.

    Rachel Reeves has repeatedly said she didn’t want to cut the universal winter fuel allowance for pensioners but it was a tough decision forced on her because of the financial black hole left by the last govt

    Here’s Reeves 10 years ago:

    As we all know Labour will steal the tory party promise on cracking down on the long term, sick unemployed.

    Tories said anyone unemployed for a year and still out of work, will have their benefits stopped. The unemployed are not being paid cash into their bank accounts, instead receive vouchers.
    This last part, is due to the lie that people on benefits spend benefits on booze, fag’s, broadband, the latest mobile, have mobile contracts,
    Netflix and 43″ colour tvs.
    Let’s see if Labour bring in vouchers?

    Tesco lost its appeal against a Supreme Court ruling there practices were unlawful.

    Tesco dismissed workers then would rehire them on lower pay.

    The deformed UK held their conference this week, I got in the quib about holding their annual conference in a telephone box.
    At every opportunity when I see anything to do with Farage, and his joining the tory party, when he was still at Public school, Dulwich College,
    its youth wing,
    after listening to Keith Joseph, Thatcher favorite economic guru.
    Our party met Sir Keith Joseph as he became discussion: The Case For Capitalism.

    Last week l saw (X?) US military personnel saying they did not want to fight for Israel if there’s an all out war in the region.
    As usual skimmed past this, then forgot about it?
    Just had a quick look for it again?
    I might have bookmarked it

    In case you haven’t seen it….

    I’ve been devil advocate: UBI (Universal Basic Income) next.
    A number of posts on the BBC news website, have sighted a 4 day week means lower output…..

    Whether it is 5 or 4 days, workers will still be expolited.

    Someone on X trotted out the line, we need a new party, Labour are useless?
    I’m also concerned about the often trotted out “if Labour are Socialist. , l don’t want anything to do with Socialism “.

    I of course jumped in, we already have a party, that has existed since 1904.
    If there’s any misconceptions, I mentioned our Party object; is Socialism. We are registered with the Electoral Commission as the Socialist Party.
    The ex Labour Militant Tendancy, which has stolen our name, failed to put our party name, the Socialist Party, on the ballot paper for their candidates in the election. Were forced to use their new name “Socialist Alliance”.
    They also use under the umbrella organisation, TUSC, a left wing grouping, including SWP mob, and Trade union supporters.

    Screenshots sharing is everything.

    Yesterday one twit user was condemning police, police tactics always the victim, the jailing of far right facists and racist rioters.

    When JSO members were being jailed the same twit was full of praise for the police.

    Hypocrisy much.
    I’m going to find it and share it with you all….

    Big anti Facist demonstration in Walthamstow tonight.
    I suggested on X Twitter people go along to the William Morris Gallery.
    I got a reply, the William Morris Gallery was mentioned by another user. However, I didn’t mention William Morris was a Socialist, nor did this other user.
    Made amends in another Walthamstow thread that William Morris was a Socialist.
    Not sure of the numbers of AF who turned up, looked quite a large crowd or whether these people were local to the area?
