The story about Galloway's election isn't about Galloway himself; no matter how hard the ruling class press wants it to be. Rather, it's about the depth to which Starmer's center-right party (unworthy of the name 'Labour' now) has alienated the left it used to rely upon for votes and defense. The hubris of that decision will get only more expensive from here.

Agreed, and let's hope the lesson sinks in with all liberal/latte left sell-outs.

Good old George. He makes me proud DNA says I'm 57% Scottish. There's nothing like a stubborn Scot who sees through bullshit to shake up any pack of English establishment posers.

Mark Taylor your political cartoons are great … but take them up one notch now. You have the wisdom and the brilliance to ‘say’ in a drawing what words cannot do. Too many words … show the death. Show the cruelty. Show the trucks rusting and the food rotting. The damn MAGA people can’t read but they will look … show them the truth Mark. You are an old man now … what have you got to lose!?

I may be one of the few who has followed and like George G. But if he becomes just another talking head in a sea of talking head then…. . Hedges went to the Rafah Gate. In his role as MP George could take the Pope and the Dali Lama and other talking heads and stand in the street of Gaza or drive trucks into Gaza. Let’s do the brave thing …. This is no different than New Yorkers standing in a circle and watching a guy beat up another guy for his wallet. Damn it we have our own Auschwitz in operation and everyone is at the barbed wire watching. Fuxking let’s break through and save these children. I’ll go but I’m a no body George build an army and I’ll join!!!

And there are others of Israeli "Offense" Forces wearing bras from looted Palestinian homes. True monsters. Caitlan Johnstone's essay today -- "Ghost Town" -- addresses how we make it all possible...
