To ensure "this doesn't get out of control..." The students of Minab may haunt this man's sleep. Seriously, this kind of spinelessness is another major reason for democratic decline. Just say things that are true instead of these intricate evasions and people might start respecting you again.

What a great precedent to set schoolchildren

'It's OK to murder someone
as long as you say
the law doesn't apply
because he/she was a bad person' ...

Govt prefers to spend billions on armoured cars, fighter jets and more military hardware.

Nepotism, cronyism and the old boy network. In the permanent government I encounter arrogance and ego with a sense of entitlement. Not tarring all with the same brush.

Why is our government so out of touch with the people.

72+years on, US & UK attempt to repeat history
"On Aug19 1953, Iranian Premier Mohammad Mossadegh was removed from power in a coup organized & financed by the British & U.S. governments. The Shah ... [then] ... signed over 40% of Iran’s oil fields to U.S. companies"

If almost the entire world's media,
governments & education systems
weren't owned by profiteering billionaires
the popular votes for socialism
would be overwhelming

Fucking ouch!

Trump is going to war for himself and his boundless, malicious ego. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-war

"The lives of courageous American heroes may be lost, and we may have casualties,” he said in a video posted to social media early Saturday morning.

“That often happens in war,” he added.

‘People here are tired, scared and feel forgotten': Racism stalks UK towns As hatred is increasingly normalised and assaults rise, ethnic minorities are becoming hypervigilant.

Thousands of jute sticks float in the river, creating natural patterns in Bangladesh. Jute is soaked in water for 20-25 days to separate the jute fibre from the plant stem. The fibres are then sold for use in textiles such as yarn, sacks, carpets, and curtains – a vital part of Bangladesh’s economy.

Footpath parking is illegal and it's a blight on our towns. It reduces accessibility, visibility, and causes a serious hazard on our roads.

This video shows why it is so important that we respect the footpaths and highlights the need for more robust enforcement by local councils and the Gardaí.

This is quite nice. There are some really lovely people in here if you ignore Jon Voight eg Mel Brooks, Morgan Freeman, Ian McKellen, James Hong, to name just four. And I was over the moon to see Tom Skerritt is still alive ... I thought he was dead! 🙌🏻

Many people don't understand but the billionaires tax you every day by overcharging you and underpaying you

You controlling the Government via democracy and taxing and controlling the billionaires is the way of balancing this

In the last 50 years that balance has been destroyed

At least 37 killed in Nigeria mine carbon monoxide poisoning: Reports Illegal mining is a widespread issue in Nigeria, where operations lack both government oversight and safety protocols.

Unease from Fianna Fáil MEPs at EU plan to use 'third countries' to hold asylum seekers The plan would allow Ireland and other member states to use so-called ‘third countries’ to hold asylum seekers in immigration ‘hubs’.

This is a dereliction of responsibility, a proposal for concentration camps not subject to European standards and is unconscionable.

The stock market is not the economy. 🤷

The utter lunacy of Trump winding down the regulation of carbon emissions and pollutants and soon ending the Roadless rule to allow millions of acres of pristine forests to be logged is a recipe for disaster that will push Earth to the point of no return even faster in an unimaginable climate hell

Everybody should be on the Left.

Very true. I was discussing this with a policymaker recently.

Good news #Organic

Good morning! Taxing the wealth of the richest 1% of Americans down to the median wealth of the next-richest 9% ($5.2 million per household) would free up $48 trillion. Redistributing that to the poorest 50% of Americans would give *68 million households* an average of *$700k per household*.
