Working from the principle of supporting ‘Black History Month’ – with the added ‘twist’ of those ‘people of colour’ who continue to betray the international working-class by collaborating with the bourgeoisie – the ‘White’ class that gave us ‘capitalism’ and ‘institutional’ slavery! !
Football: Leagues to Sue FIFA Over “Abuse of Dominance”! (23.7.2024)
This is the nuclear option. It is the red button the unions and leagues hoped not to press but they feel they have been left with no alternative.
Unions, by reputation, do not need to be asked twice to fight for the rights of their members but that fact the leagues – including the Premier League – are backing this action makes it significant.
The threat of legal action has been spoken about in football circles for over a year and there is now a united front, one the Professional Footballers’ Association wanted to ensure before progressing.
Fifa’s response and argument against accuses some clubs of hypocrisy – taking their players around the globe on summer tours – while also saying Fifpro is consulted over the calendar so expect a strong defence from the world governing body.
Yet there is a determination from all the complainants to follow both cases through if a resolution outside the courts is not found. Unions and leagues want to see a change from Fifa and, if not, this will go the distance.
Declassified: ISRAEL LOBBY FUNDED HALF OF KEIR STARMER’S CABINET! (20.7.2024)
Pro-Israel lobbyists have donated to 13 out of Labour’s 25 cabinet members since they were first elected to parliament, Declassified can reveal.
The list of recipients includes prime minister Keir Starmer, his deputy Angela Rayner, chancellor Rachel Reeves, foreign secretary David Lammy and home secretary Yvette Cooper.
Jonathan Reynolds, who will oversee arms exports to Israel as UK trade secretary, is another beneficiary, alongside Labour’s election mastermind Pat McFadden, whose responsibilities now include national security.
Some of the donations were provided by Labour Friends of Israel (LFI), a lobby group which takes MPs on “fact-finding” missions to the region.
Reeves, McFadden, Reynolds and technology secretary Peter Kyle were recently listed as vice-chairs of LFI.
Other major funders include pro-Israel businessmen Trevor Chinn and Stuart Roden.
The total value of the donations amounts to over £300,000.
UN: ICJ Calls on Israel to End “Unlawful” Presence in Occupied Palestinian Territories! (20.7.2024)
On Dec. 30, 2022, the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution requesting the ICJ to provide an advisory opinion regarding the legal consequences of Israel’s occupation of Palestinian territories, including East Jerusalem.
In February 2024, the ICJ held public hearings at which Palestine, 49 UN member states, and three international organizations presented oral statements regarding the issue.
At the hearings, Palestine’s UN envoy Riyad Mansour urged the ICJ to declare Israel’s occupation of Palestinian territories illegal, emphasizing that such a ruling would pave the way for an immediate end to the occupation and the establishment of a “just and lasting peace.”
Without participating in the hearings, the Israeli Prime Minister’s Office issued a statement rejecting the legitimacy of the hearings, accusing them of attempting to further undermine Israel’s right to survival and self-defense.
Email: Romany Community Accuse British Fascist State of Child Kidnap and Sexual Abuse! (19.7.2024)
The Romany are opposed to the LGBTQ+ community and lifestyle – associating such ideas with paedophilia and paederasty. The fear is of child sexual abuse being facilitated by the British State – a deficient activity outlawed in the USSR and Socialist Romania. Indeed, many of these Romany attitudes, which may or may not be correct, might stem from the times of Socialist reconstruction – 1945-1989 – and reflect a progression away from pre-modern modes of thoughts and behaviours.
Email: East Leeds [UK] – Harehills – Civil Unrest! (19.7.2024)
When Social Services visited the home to take the other children into care – locals gathered outside the house in a rare show of solidarity in the UK. The Police were then called to keep the peace – which they failed to do as the concerned crowd soon turned violent and apparently outnumbered the Police. The participants resorted to attacking a bus, a police car and a long fridge. Those rioting have not covered their faces whilst their friends have filmed their behaviour and posted it “live” on social media – so, some long prison sentences to be expected. No doubt, more details will emerge in the fullness of time, presenting the State as angelic and the rioters as Satan incarnate.
