Election note
I need to do a piece about expecting a UK General Election to be called soon.
There is no discernible difference between the main parties – the currently ruling Conservative Party under Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and the likely victors at the election UK Labour Party under “I support Zionism without qualification” leader Keir Starmer.
Both parties and party leaders actively support Fascist Israel’s genocide in Gaza and intend to continue destroying the planet for the benefit of the oil and gas industry. Both parties and party leaders are happy for Julian Assange to rot in a US prison for telling the truth and despite not committing any obvious crime and certainly not any crime under UK law. There are strong suggestions that Labour leader Keir Starmer was involved in the early persecution of Julian Assange.
Any half-decent responsible government would object instead of assist Israel’s Fascist Gaza genocide and take action on climate instead of promoting and accelerating climate destruction as they are actually doing. By assisting Israel in it’s Fascist endeavours, they are exposing themselves as being just as bad themselves.
If you agree with this analysis or even most of it I ask you to participate, take part in the election campaign by opposing the main parties that support Israel or climate destruction. It’s unclear where the Scottish Nationalist Party is on the climate yet. It is not enough to let Fascism go, it needs to be actively opposed. Creatives please get involved – you can always publish anonymously.
20/5/2024 I’m uncertain if we’ll have another chance like this to alter climate policy and it’s so urgently needed. The Tories and the Red Tories (Labour) have no intention to address the climate crisis with anything near the urgency that is needed. later: Ed: Correction: I would say no intention to address the climate crisis.
20/5/2024 later. It’s difficult to take the Lib Dems at all seriously when they don’t even proofread their website. https://www.libdems.org.uk/green “We urgently need to limit temperature rises to 1.5°C or we will face irreversible climate change which will cause catastrophic land loss and make parts of our planet inhabitable.”
