Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
Courageous move by Keir Starmer, in the Yes Minister sense.
Seriously though it's just such an absurd overreaction. They hemorrhaging off their own politicians! They're arresting 84 year old upper class priests!
I think it's a massive misstep by the govt. They are pushing PA organising underground for the moment, but dont seem to acknowledge how it will just re-emerge with a new name and new spokespersons just like National Front did.
All the while they've publicly and openly shit the bed trying to look tough like a school prefect who got picked on a few too many times. It doesn't make them look good to the fascists, their own base, or anyone really.
I don't think he expects to get re-elected anyway.
oh he will get re-elected, no different to how the neoliberal and fascist caucus won reelection in the US for over a generation.
most polling orgs are predicting a reform win
they are the overt fascists
Who'd vote for Reform-lite when they can vote for Reform?
