Unelected Conservatives Distort Our Democracy
It’s funny old times in that unelected conservatives are running our democracy. And the local elections are a prime example. The unelected mainstream media [MSM], which is rightwing, spin tales of failed Labour, ignoring legitimate voters being turned away in...Anti-Semitism and Windrush The Hierarchy of Race
The British media briefly turned its attention to the Tory government’s policy to deport Black British citizens of the Windrush generation. Then the British media returned its focus to anti-Semitism in the Labour Party. Both stories look at racism in...How Tories Created Our Hostile Environment
The British government enshrined the British Citizenship of the ‘Windrush Generation’ and their scions in law. That included those without migration papers like children. So, like any white British Citizen, they were legally resident without the need for paperwork...Hurling Cruise Missiles On Syria
