Starmer going going gone

Starmer is on his way out. I for one won't shed a tear, he's a singularly duplicitous individual, who has been an absolute shower of shit - I will never forget him endorsing a siege on Gaza in his LBC interview. Burnham will be a bit more charismatic, end of. I don't expect him to privatise water or energy, or ban selling weapons to Israel. You can tell by all the Labour establishment figures, and zionists supporting him now. Josh Simons gave up his seat for a reason - the zionists will expect a return on their investment.

RE: Attack on Iran

Can the US stand up to Israel re the MOU with Iran? We will see. No doubt Israel will try to reignite the war with Iran, probably by attacking Lebanon, using any flimsy pretext. The US is at a crossroads in its relationship with Israel, they either leave Israel to continue fighting Iran on their own, (because they won't stop) or continue to be led by the nose and inveigled into Israel's military bitch.

Now May 30th and Trump is still spewing bullshit about a "deal" with Iran. At this stage it does seem ridiculous that the media is still reporting every contradiction that Trump makes, which happens multiple times every day. Trump will eventually have to really make a deal, but only when every other avenue has been exhausted.

Helen Mirren

Helen Mirren is a self confessed zionist, and she is not jewish, but a strong, long time supporter of Israel. Surely calling her a "zionist bitch" doesn't meet the threshold of "hate speech". The rightwing press seem to be making a huge deal out of the fact that Mirren is 80 years old and therefore shouldn't be shouted at in the street. Once again some people seem far more concerned with people shouting at supporters of a genocide, than the actual victims of a genocide.

RE: Eurovision

Well Eurovision has gone ahead with Israel competing, albeit with the boycotting of Spain,Netherlands,Ireland,Slovenia and Iceland. Hopefully many individuals will boycott and viewing figures take a big hit. Germany and Austria have both said they would boycott, if Israel were banned....here's hoping!

UK local elections

Looks like both Labour and the tories are going to get an absolute drubbing at the polls today. I'm hopeful that the Greens and Independents will do really well, but unfortunately Reform probably will as well.

RE: Recommended books on history

One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This by Omar El Akkad, is an excellent and moving book, about the author's own personal experiences of racism against Arabs in the western world alongside the genocide in Gaza.

Both Helen Mirren and Boy George signed a letter in support of Israel participating in Eurovision. At this point you have to ask what does Israel have to do, to receive any punitive action whatsoever? Seems that by its supporters there is nothing heinous enough.

Somethings gotta give, and I don't think it will be Iran. The US has two choices, either escalate or negotiate, and a limited window based on the global economy. Escalation would be the totally wrong thing to do, and counterproductive, but who knows with Trump and the Israelis.
