The idea of putting a 'like' made me hesitate. Since it is appalling. I have long long since abandoned the whole idea or concept of patriotism (and not because of feminism either!), as I firmly believe borders and barriers create a false argument for saying "You don't belong here". It didn't take a lot of deep thought to understand the statement 'All private property is theft from the community', and understand how that works out over time and history, especially when it results in colonialism, imperialism, the House of Lords, the balance of land ownership being a total imbalance between wealth and poverty, and power staying fast in the hands of those who have the land, or the wealth, or the influence, or the friends, or the inherited power. And the sad thing is - I was encouraged to respect and congratulate those who desert us and joined their ranks. In other words, school taught me I should be subordinate. Just as well anarchism taught me different.

Nice bookend as it would have been, the Labour party wasn't started by a Keir and ended by a Keir. It was ended by a Tony. Give him the award. All the Jeremy did after that was try to reinject a bit of socialism into the socialist party.

A shock, yes. But you're right on one thing: no surprise.

There's no end to this vile imperialism and genocide. I'm left wondering how on earth can we help the people left suffering Gaza? If we state we support them, we are labelled as terrorists. We contribute to aid and the aid is blocked. How the TBI and Isreal et al can sleep at night is beyond me. I lie awake at night feeling the pain of the Palestinians. Wake up world.

When there is a devastating natural disaster, or even just a big accident, there is a great deal of weeping and wailing and rending of clothes. This is to remind us that death is awful, and human lives matter. The authorities we elect to care for us show how much they care for us by lamenting the disasters they could do little to prevent. But, but, but. Suddenly, when there are even bigger disasters, such as genocides, and famines, and one-sided wars, suddenly we're supposed to forget that lives matter. The training we've had about caring for others has to be undone. Accidental deaths are tragic and governments mobilise to help, deliberate deaths are to be ignored, and the media mobilises to hide them. We are supposed to care, but only when our leaders say so. Empathy's okay, but not for everyone. Tony Blair's complicit in a genocide? Are you surprised? The lesson of Gaza is that poor people can be extinguished. Just as easily as humans can be encouraged to empathise with the victims of, say, a flash flood, we can be made to not think at all about people being murdered with the weapons our taxes provide. Resistance is contemptuously criminalised and ignored. And, if life only matters when our controllers say it does, who's going to care when they decide ours doesn't?

If You look at Starmers Inner Circle it is full of Bastard Blair HAGS and Blair Whoremasters and Pervs. This insidious creep just as Starmer did promised the Labour Membership and the Country the Moon and the Stars and gave them Fuck All. The only Labour Leader since Thatcher and her government Fit to Lead the Country as PM has been Jeremy Corbyn and if the English Voters get another chance they had better Take it with BOTH HANDS and Save England and the Rest of the UK. “JC For No 10”

Very good, as always – thank you. And an excellent setting of the context in the opening para. As obvious at it seems, many people still don't seem to understand that this is all about Western imperialism and the capitalist monster that supports this agenda.

Living in the US I don’t follow UK politics but I am not surprised because the Elite Globalists have no real loyalty to anything but power and money. I think they believe the world belongs to them. But they are wrong

I think Bob Vylan is the best guy to come up with a suitable refrain on Blair and UKs supposed political elite.

What a vile and heartless idea! Straight from the bowels of the avaricious Roman Empire. When Tony converted to Catholicism everyone should have sat up and taken note.... does anyone else remember the wars in the middle east being nicknamed the Final Crusade?

Starmer is clearly a TBI stooge, what with Petie (Mandelson- Epstein's affectionate name for the Dark Lord) being appointed Ambassador to Washington. AND Trump accepting him? So the Dubai Riviera in Gaza was probably always the plan that sparked the genocide. All that oil and gas just off its coast? It belongs to the Palestinians but £9000 will buy them off? There is no limit to the greed, or the measures taken to feed it! No words suffice!

This is is so sick and wrong that it sounds exactly like what we have come to find out is true about the West
