“most British Marxists have long ceased to attend to British actualities and, at a time of unparalleled socialist opportunity, play to each other their amateur revolutionary theatricals” - E.P. Thompson in 1975 - I'd say "Marxists", but otherwise, plus ça change ...

I understand where this line of thought comes from but i don't think it's useful at all. Putting aside existing literature, what's happening in Palestine is dependent on and structured by capitalism sure but we still have to describe it as something, if not genocide then what?

So Dr Jason Arday subscribed to Novara, only to see them call him a conman and mock him, same as the fascist and liberal press. Bastani couldn’t give two fucks what he helped do to a vulnerable man, he was back on his bs in record time. And it was all cover for Salem / Gove
On the latest @ATTRITIONPod, @comrade_kumar_ recalls @novaramedia’s role in the lynching of Jason, and why ‘leftist’ media who participated in the smears are particularly culpable.

“Hes got to…” does he? Does he got to, because I think either way he’s going to be fine. Worst come to worst he won’t be PM, he’ll cash in on his contacts and live extremely well.
So he hasn’t got to anything really had he.

@OfSymbolsetely moved on from arday and is back to denying he has ever done anything wrong. idk if i agree that the others are free of responsibility though. michael walker is also a massive cunt and all of them are willing to work with these people, and never criticise each other even when they should, for personal gain. i do like some of them but it becomes harder everyday to give them the benefit of the doubt.

We're right back in last decade's stupid and discredited argument that the global financial crash was caused by too many libraries in Wolverhampton.
The bond markets turned on Truss because she promised huge unfunded tax cuts for the super rich, i.e, unproductive spending.
The bond markets turned on Truss because she promised huge unfunded tax cuts for the super rich, i.e, unproductive spending.
EXCLUSIVE:
Andy Burnham must “take the knife” to public spending in the budget or risk a Liz Truss-style crisis that will “crater” the economy and the government’s popularity, an ally of the prime minister has warned
Andy Haldane, a former chief economist at the Bank of England, said he feared the government would deliver a “mañana budget” that deferred the difficult decisions on public spending and “doesn’t speak to the urgency of now”
In an interview with The Times, he said that Britain was “close to being taxed out and maxed out in terms of borrowing”. He spoke of concerns that the government was failing to grasp how “precarious” the fiscal position was
He said that the government needs to cut the size of the state and reduce taxes if it were to “unleash the animal spirits and generate growth”
Haldane warned Burnham that he cannot “vibe-code” his way to growth, and raised concerns about the gap between the government’s rhetoric and the reality. He said that the government was effectively deferring the “day of reckoning”
He also said that the decision to increase taxes on banks could show that the government lacked the courage to cut public spending. He said the move was “penny wise, pound foolish” and sent a broader economic message that if businesses make profits “the taxman cometh”
Haldane said that while Burnham had the potential to be a “great prime minister” who could serve two terms, the economy was his “blind spot”. He said that the fiscal situation facing Britain was “precarious”
“The penny has not yet fully dropped, including in Downing Street,” he said. “You see that in us having the highest borrowing costs in the G7, despite not having the highest debts and deficits.
“It’s the old Hemingway [Ernest Hemingway, the author] thing, isn’t it? How do you go bankrupt? First slowly, then very quickly. The biggest risk to Andy not transforming Britain, to not serving two terms, to not being seen in the history books as a great prime minister, is not political risk.
“It’s not those who sit behind him. It’s probably not even those who sit opposite him in Westminster. Keir [Starmer] lost the dressing room. Andy’s biggest risk is that he loses the dealing room. And then that’s an even more painful way to go, as Liz Truss would tell you.”

Funny how The Mail On Sunday don’t quote my official response but only from my liable letter.
My official statement: Zionism will join apartheid and Jim Crow in the ugly dustbin of history, and no amount of crocodile tears will change that.

Lib Dem @michaeljswalker sits down for a chat with Gordon Brown's former economic advisor (and good friend of James Meadway). Here he outlines the economic philosophy of Novara which is 'feasible radicalism' which just equates to centrism. Same media for the same politics.

We should nationalise the land in Britain with no compensation; doing so is a basic prerequisite for economic development & re-industralisation, anyone who suggests otherwise is telling porkies. It's a finite resource & a common treasury for all.

More great work from @newscord_org, this time looking at the media response to the Green's Zionism is Racism motion. Crazy findings.
The past 20 days have marked one of the most monolithic pushes by British media to vilify the Zionism is Racism Green Party motion.
Imbalanced coverage would be an understatement.
The papers wrote 447 articles on the Greens' Zionism vote. Israel, pro-Israel groups and the Chief Palestinians got 3,173.
Any institution that parades as a "news outlet" can no longer be taken seriously if it covers this motion without also covering the people, Palestinians, who have endured, suffered and been oppressed the most by the ideology in action.
What the figures show:
• Israel's government alone got 3,904 words. More than every Palestinian put together.
• 2,422 of the 3,173 Palestinian words came in stories tying Lubna Speitan, the Palestinian who proposed the motion, to al-Qaeda.
• Apart from Lubna, two Palestinians were quoted across 436 articles, for 76 words between them. Nobody in Gaza, the occupied West Bank or Lebanon was quoted at all.
• Lubna told the Telegraph that 56 members of her family had been killed in Gaza. One article mentioned it: the Telegraph's own al-Qaeda story, in paragraph 44 of 51.
• Lubna has received death and rape threats since the vote. Al Jazeera reported it. None of the 447 British articles did.
• 43 articles said, in the paper's own voice, that the motion meant the destruction or abolition of Israel. The motion calls for one state with "equal rights for all".
• 36 headlines said antisemitism. Not one of 447 said genocide.
• 304 of the 436 articles we read in full never mentioned the genocide at all.
• 0 of 89 comment pieces backed the motion.
• The Daily Mail ran 38 articles on the motion, and in that time, just 2 on Israel's ongoing attacks across Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon.

Has anyone else noticed how the two main presenters of @novaramedia, Bastani and @michaeljswalker are constantly hammering the message “Be happy with Burnham…take the win…” when he backs a Genocide and ratchets up authoritarianism and neoliberalism at home?
“alt.left media”?

Basic education piece:
Not all Jewish people are Zionists.
Lots of Zionists aren't Jews.
The Board of Deputies largely self identity as Zionists.
The Media often report the Board of Deputies as the opinion of Jewish people.
Yet many Jewish people say #NotInOurName
