UK: Joint Statement – Trans+ Solidarity Alliance, Scottish Trans, & TransActual – EHRC’s Code of Practice Comes into Effect! (5.8.2026)

However, we decided to just turn-up at the UNITE double-decker bus (I was a member of that union at the time) – and see if we could blag our way through – and blag we did. If we had not taken direct action – Gee is very gay-friendly and the crowd took to her – we would not have been able to attend. I think the fact we are mixed-race couple acted as camouflaged for our presence (everyone thought someone had okayed it previously). As a straight couple – we were not permitted on the bus by the lesbians who occupied and controlled it. At one point, I was kissed by a gay Asian man – which was not traumatising to me at all. He asked Gee’s permission first. Later, as a straight, mixed couple, with mixed kids, the gay and trans people that sat in and around London landmarks with us – looked at us with such love that I cannot deny the experience. I am not telling you how to think – indeed – I would advise thinking for yourself by reading all the evidence and weighing things-up. As workers living in a capitalist society – we are already oppressed. Granting (or withholding) access to toilets will not change that – even if it might be seen as “progressive” and a “movement in the right direction”. A genuine Red Army soldier fights to defeat capitalism and fascism for ALL people – not just those the bourgeoise establishment decide are acceptable or persona non grata.

Tourist Caught Breaking Car Side Mirror In Swieqi

Malta: High-Caste [Brahmin] Indian Tourist – Rohit Uniyal – Filmed Vandalising Vehicles! (5.8.2026)

Rohit Uniyal has been remanded in custody after being charged in connection with the vandalism of a parked vehicle in Swieqi.

I have always stood by the same principle: whoever is charged before the courts for wrongdoing should be named and shamed, regardless of their nationality, background or status.

I’ve been told by some that he is a different person when not under the influence of alcohol. Whether that is true or not, alcohol is never an excuse for damaging someone else’…

UN: War Crime Report – Zionists Deliberately “Targeting” Palestinian Children at School! (5.8.2026)

Although PA is said to support Socialism – it has lost ground amongst ordinary Palestinian people due to its perceived and actual cooperation with Israeli Forces. As it conforms to Israeli dominance – PA is seen as being privileged by the West. This has led to widespread campaigns of non-tax paying across Palestine – and other civil disobedience campaigns. The US and Israel simply diverts funds to PA to prevent it from collapsing. It is a shame as PA, instead of following a neutral position – has actually adopted an antagonistic stance toward Hamas – and to be quite frank – comes across as completely compromised at times. Historically, of course, Socialist movements have resorted to armed conflict – so the position of PA is peculiar to say the least. Even if PA disagrees with Islamic-inspired militancy – it does not have to disagree with armed self-defence in principle. As matters stand, the US-backed Israeli Forces routinely break International Law – committing war crimes and crimes against humanity. As the UN has ruled – Israel is committing “genocide” in Gaza and it is doing this in-part by deliberately targeting Palestinian school-children.

UK: Parents & Pupils Took on “Cruel” & “Authoritarian” Devon & Cornwall “Athena Academy Schools” – & Won! (4.8.2026)

And Zara says her autistic daughter Hannah, who has hearing difficulties and attends Ilfracombe Academy, was repeatedly removed from class because her needs were not recognised.

“Behaviour is just put down to persistent defiance and bad behaviour, and they’re punished for it,” she says. “It’s never recognised as being linked to their disabilities.”

Athena told us that children with special educational needs are “not routinely sanctioned for behaviours associated with their needs”.

A lot of the anger we heard in Devon and Cornwall is, we were told, down to the lack of accountability.

Academy trusts do not have any supervision from local councils, meaning only central government can intervene.

One of the biggest weaknesses of the trust system is that it complicates the complaints process, says education journalist Laura McInerney, who co-founded Teacher Tapp, an app designed to track educators’ wellbeing, classroom practices, and opinions on education policy.

If parents are not satisfied with a specific school’s response, she says, they have to contact the trust, which could be miles way, and which “you may or may not hear from in anything other than a letter”.

The government says parents can take complaints about academy trusts to the Department for Education.

Across England, there is growing concern about punitive disciplinary practices in schools.

The U.S. dollars - Essence of Capitalism!

China: The West Wanting to “Decouple” from the PRC is Simply Impossible! (4.8.2026)

Meanwhile, the US is paranoid about the Chinese people possessing high IQs and being able to see things the average Westerner may not. This is believed to the basis of advanced technology hidden in plain site – and voluntarily imported into the West (through the agency of Western greed). In other words, the Americans are paranoid that the Chinese are exporting to the West a “hidden” computerised technology that can, when remotely triggered from Beijing, render useless all US technology and power-generating capability (the National Grid, for instance, could be instantly “turned-off” and Defence Computers short-circuited). Just as China can pursue any path it wishes – it is also true that so can the West. Decoupling, at least for the Westerners, is viewed as a logical strategy of self-defence. It is as if the West believes it has been caught unawares by the “cleverness” of China – and is belatedly doing something about it. Unless there is a change of leadership and thinking in the West (which is unlikely) – this policy will be pursued regardless of the cost. For the (bourgeois) West, the cost is worth the West retaining a) its economic dominance, and b) its cultural independence. This is true even if the policy is illogical or even wrong – as “power” to create or mould material reality is the key operative here. The problem is that China can do nothing to prevent this “decoupling” policy if the West insists upon pursuing it – as “decoupling” is viewed very much as the “reversing” of Clinton’s (mistaken) pro-China policies.

UK: Undercover “Special Demonstration Squad” – Closed Down Over Unjustified Surveillance – Spycops Inquiry Told! (3.8.2026)

Around 20-years later, Starmer would order the quick round-up of 10,000 Brazilians in the UK for deportation – whilst illegally taking the British Citizenship of the children (so that entire families could be deported with no legal or moral issues resulting. To be clear, the Brazilians have done nothing wrong in the UK, and are here in relatively few numbers – and yet the British State has targetted this group whilst ignoring the groups that have caused trouble. Bear in-mind that the SDS came into being one year after the “Summer of Love” in 1968 – and was instigated by an incumbent Labour Party. It existed and weaved its evil webs throughout the UK until 2010 (between 2008-2010 it seems to have had a name-change to “National Public Order Intelligence Unit”) – and the election of a far-right Tory-LibDems Coalition (although it was during the outgoing of Labour Prime Minister of – Gordon Brown – that it ceased operations after years of complaints). I suspect groups like the Maoist Workers’ Institute were subject to its machinations over the years – machinations that are now considered both illegal and immoral. My views about the Guardian Newspaper remain unchanged. Stop lying about Neo-Nazi Ukraine and the Israeli Genocide and re-orientate your political compass firmly back toward the left.
