Wonder if Jacinda will use the opportunity to ask Macron about police brutality used against the Gilets Jeunes. Plenty to challenge about France’s abandonment of civil rights.
Remember Douma. Only a few years since the last US false flag.
Keep posting
And just as we just this confirmed, the US instigates another false flag. Now Iran is under Bolton’s beady warmongering eye.
False flag.
There is no middle ground. It is 31 degrees in north Russia in May. Time to enact wartime regulations and rationing. Time to enforce a non consumer eco socialist programme.
As a matter of interest, what do you believe the punishment should have been handed out to war criminals in WW2 for genocide?
Do you have as strong an opinion on people being called ‘cockroaches’ or ‘industrial waste.’ ? Just wondering how selective your outrage is.
Soltka your memory betrays you. It was recommended by Ed that Simon Doull go to Bangladesh to help build walls against the floods. That might prove to him climate change was real. For some bizarre reason that earned a life ban. Meanwhile today, Sacha ...
As we are talking about people being censored for opposing group think, have you noticed Rachel Stewart has left Twitter after outrageous online bullying. As George Orwell said, “The further a society drifts from the truth, the more it will hate those that...
An excellent article by Christine Rose. The most powerful section was this. “Photos from space show us how fragile and finite is our beautiful planet. But if survival depends on us sacrificing growth and middle class quality of life luxuries and ...
Now we have a Labour Party that fawns at the feet of the new Bonaparte, as his thugs crack open the heads and shoot at the eyes of working class French citizens.
I agree with you about our reckless consumerism. As Christine Rose wrote over at the Daily Blog, “Heaven forbid that they might forego cell phones to save ancient rain forests in the Congo. Or products with palm oil to save Orangutans, or give up net ...
I don’t imagine people will be given the choice soon. The world will not tolerate the middle class’s refusal to make sacrifices over their luxuries while our future is forfeited.
George Monbiot attempts to answer the problem you pose. What to replace capitalism with. You may not agree with his position, but his hypothesis is thought provoking. He recommends we look the ecological civilisation proposed by Jeremy Lent, Kate Raworth’s...
59% of the UK’s population support radical action to mitigate climate change.. 8% oppose it. I’d call that a strong mandate! https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/climate-change-greenhouse-gasses-public-support-poll-greta-thunberg-a8909641.html
Great support for the Palestinians today in London. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2019/may/11/israel-end-attacks-on-palestine-london-protest-demands I recommend those who support civil rights read John Wight’s letter to an Israeli soldier. https://t....
I agree. And we have to abandon capitalism. You can’t have perpetual growth on a finite planet. Have you read Derrick Jensen?
There is no middle ground. Either we abandon capitalism or we become extinct. Nature bats last. You can’t negotiate with it.
From Radio New Zealand. Time to wake up New Zealand. This is NOT normal. “Temperatures across New Zealand will reach the late teens and early 20s today - that's 5 to 8 degrees above normal. Weather commentator Richard Green said that, unusually, it's most ...
The Zero Carbon Bill is a pathetic attempt to tackle climate change. What is more important? Big Ag or our children and grandchildren.
The government must declare a climate emergency. Today.
Well for a start the Standard could look in the mirror.’ It should not ban people who disagree with Te Reo Putake. Bring back Ed. Bring back Bill. Bring back Paul.
I think we should be very concerned about climate change. Scientists are now telling us we’ve 12 years left. Shouldn’t we all be passionate about that? Indeed, is there an issue more important?
“How dare he declare a state of emergency before me.”
Will do, greywarshark !
I love the way the U.S. complains how other countries interfere in their elections, yet they openly get involved in coups against democratically elected governments. The irony is too much.
Great idea.
I read a book - can’t remember what’s it called now- about this couple from the Bay of Plenty, who had their business destroyed by the Red Sheds. The more I read about them, the more they sound like Walmart.
At least you continue to connect us to George Galloway and other brave, independent spokespeople from the left. Thanks Maui.
I disagree. I just think we should be a bit more honest about the societal cost of big box retail. And I don’t think the owners should be honoured for the damage they did.
Cats, with their independent spirit and beguiling purrs, have captured the hearts of humans for millennia. In New Zealand, felines are no exception, boasting the highest national cat ownership rate globally [definition cat nz cat foundation]. An estimated 1.134 million pet cats grace Kiwi households, compared to 683,000 dogs ...
