The first state police were created in Penn, meant to crush immigrant miners’ strikes in the coal fields. The Penn state police was inspired by the US colonial state’s Philippine Constabulary meant to crush the Filipino insurgency against US rule. So yeah, this tracks. UT Austin

Greater Manchester Police chief Stephen Watson, who unexpectedly reopened the investigation into Angela Rayner’s addresses, spoke at the last Tory conference.

The appearance raised questions about his political impartiality, as since the event he's garnered Tory support for

Mazel tov to Summer Lee and the bad ass organizers who faced threats & smears driven by right wing billionaire money machines, and won. No better way to celebrate the liberation story of Passover than to again have a liberation Congressmember at work for PA.

A reminder that there were practically zero small boat crossings before Britain left the European Union. There are reasons for that, but no one talks about - one of them is the Dublin agreement that allowed returns.

Just when you thought the Tories couldn’t sink any lower…

They claim forcing refugees onto flights to Rwanda is the compassionate response to a 7-year-old drowning in the Channel.

Give me a BREAK.

How are news outlets dedicating wall-to-wall coverage to campus protests, but not the discovery of mass graves in Gaza of people with their hands tied & clothing stripped?

Why do we not know more?

Where are the journalists and resources being dedicated to that story?

Super-rich landlords and property firms help bankroll the Tories

Today they've got their payback.

The Tories have tabled more than 200 amendments that have gutted the Renters Reform Bill that's in Parliament today.

The whole thing stinks.

This is absolutely right from Sadiq. Susan Hall is completely and utterly unfit for such office. A real danger.

A very wtf response from Rwanda's top official in charge of the UK deal, when asked if refugees sent there would be able to criticise the government and hold protests if they wanted to:

Lou Calvey Zoe Gardner Really appreciate Zoe getting in right at the end there that this will be violent. It involves use of brute force against vulnerable people.

This is a huge setback for anyone who believes in the rule of law. Its implications for our constitution can’t be overstated.

But I promise you, this isn’t over yet. We are not going to abandon refugees without a fight.

Refugees welcome here always ✊🧡
