FIVE Cobra meetings Johnson skipped at a critical time at the start of the Covid epidemic. His delay in instituting the first lockdown caused tens of thousands of unnecessary deaths. He should be in prison. Not being paid truckloads of cash as a columnist by our ridiculous right-wing media.

Marcus Chown@marcuschown.bsky.social

Yes. Hard to imagine a worse PM to have than Johnson during a pandemic. Didn’t he miss the first four Cobra meetings?

On Monday, Andy Burnham announced Britain has supported Saudi Arabia with "air defence" and at least 14 refuelling aircraft missions. Britain is supporting Saudi as it bombs Yemen, which has killed 107 people in one month alone. Stop arming Saudi.

Notable that whilst they won't be very specific about the threat, they're often very precise about where the money needs to come from (cuts to the welfare state)

Could we be more specific about the imminent Day Of Reckoning when everyone will be forced to sacrifice and do things they don’t want to do, for the army. Much, much more specific than this, please.

“When Welsh politicians call for more funding from England, they’re not calling for charity, they’re calling for restitution." This is fantastic stuff from George Monbiot.

Banning all shooting estates, killing wild animals, and birds is necessary. It is not a sport, it is a bloody barbaric, unnecessary killing done by rich, sadistic nutters for fun.

Reminder that the EU had no compunction about banning Russia Today. If anything, Musk’s behaviour is more egregious - directly assisting a foreign enemy's military attack. And this is on top of his support for race riots, Nazis and CSAM! By any measure, a threat to national security.

Steve Peers@stevepeers.bsky.social

It's legitimate for the EU, the UK, Canada and others to support their Ukrainian ally. If Musk is going to (in effect) assist Putin's invasion of Ukraine, Ukraine's allies should sanction Starlink, X and Tesla. At the very least, governments (and people) should stop using his fucking site already.

Norway has removed all of its $2tn Investment Fund from Israel linked banks, as it continues its policy of BDS against Israel. Well done Norway.

Company behind Scotland’s biggest data centre proposal is owned by the treasurer of the UK Conservative party via British Virgin Islands. It could receive £23m public subsidy. BVI facilitates opacity and tax avoidance. Successive UK govts have defended the use of tax havens by wealthy elites.

In South Korea, supermarkets often offer bananas at varying levels of ripeness so customers can eat them over several days and reduce food waste. Original post

Anyone outside the US should assume that all US based social media sites are currently controlled by Nazis… because they are. Act accordingly.

On the day he is a main candidate in a very important by-election, Facebook has *suspended* Zack Polanski’s account. This ON ITS OWN should be reason to vote Green in Holborn & St Pancras. This is foreign interference in British democracy. And guess what, the media (and Labour) is silent.

Do you know why I think every prisoner should get to vote in prison? Not only are prisoners counted in the census and are most affected by policies (check out prison gerrymandering), but also if you don't, regimes could simply round up 1,000s of dissidents and minorities to reshape the electorate

Zionism is racism. The United Nations voted to declare it as such in 1975, half a century ago. This isn’t new, and this isn’t controversial.
