The Tories are keen to highlight Labour Birmingham and Nottingham for having to issue S114 'bankruptcy' notices, but eerily quiet about Tory Northamptonshire and Thurrock.

Neither party is new to bad governance.

Keir Starmer lied shamelessly on national TV this morning.

He claimed he'd never supported Israel's right to commit war crimes, after being shown a clip in which he did.

Why?

Because he thinks the general public is thick 👇

An invasion of Rafah will complete the total destruction of Gaza, rendering it uninhabitable.

It means mass slaughter through violence.

It will stop aid getting in, and along with mass displacement to other destroyed areas, meaning humanitarian calamity.

A genocidal act.

Today marks 61 years since the Bristol Bus Boycott. It began after the Bristol Omnibus Company, with the support of the Transport & General Workers Union, refused to employ Black & Asian crews. The boycott lasted 4 months until the company backed down & overturned the colour bar.
