Reminded watching that Metropolitan Police threatened to sue socialists & Anti Nazi League members over this poster.
This, rather than hand over the killer of Blair Peach from the ranks of the vile Special Patrol Group.

I teach a course on anti-colonial archives. We read texts, recipes, poems, letters, memoirs. We watch films, listen to freedom songs. We talk about dreams, food, dust & soil as history. For centuries, millions of people on this earth have stood up for a world free of colonialism.

I grew up with the death of Blair Peach around us - my parents’ friends, a network of socialist teachers, collectively honoured their comrade. As a kid I’d heard Jo Lang tell the story of his murder but it was emotional and important to hear her tell it again this eve

Response by prof Donna Shalala, president of The New School NY, to Nancy Fraser's cancellation as visiting professor at Cologne University. Excellent and cutting through the double-speak

I have two tickets booked for this now cancelled event. I’ve always loved visiting HOME but this decision is a disgrace that will not be forgotten.

So I’m about to pay my bill for April which includes the new free hours for two-year-olds. Is Labour’s policy that my bill will go up when they get elected?

Diane Abbott is to be spoken about in Parliament but must not be heard. The Labour MP Hoyle is a disgrace on so many levels. Solidarity with Diane Abbott MP today and always, we hear you through the enforced silence.
