Mark Curtis: Most key issues about UK foreign policy…

Most key issues about UK foreign policy are unmentionable in the ‘mainstream’. A major one is that Whitehall supports Israel’s gradual takeover of Palestine. The govt of course can’t say this because it wants to be seen to uphold the international law that it constantly violates.

Mark Curtis: Just think how much AgitProp has been...

Just think how much AgitProp has been done by the UK’s ideological media institutions over months and years to get the point where a party leader can actually propose to “cut welfare to fund defence”.

Mark Curtis: After Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya & Syria…

After Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya & Syria you might think it a tad difficult to justify the existence of the UK military at all let alone more spending on it. Shame we can’t transform the military from the armed wing of UK oligarchy to a benign national & int’l defence force.

I reflect on impunity for UK ministers and why defence secretary John Healey is still at large after authorising British military support for Israel during a genocide (begins around 14.30).

Mark Curtis: Major article by @StarmertheFraud…

Major article by @StarmertheFraud . “But Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s government is not really a Labour government; it came to power on the back of a secret project to wrest control of the Labour Party back from an ascendant left wing. This secret project was resourced by illegally undeclared money from wealthy donors, funneled through a seemingly anodyne think tank called Labour Together. It involved covertly seeding promiscuous claims of antisemitism against political opponents, attempting to silence independent media that threatened to expose its project, and—ultimately—developing the dishonest leadership pitch that allowed Keir Starmer to trick a left-wing membership to elect him leader”.

It’s so hilarious how the British corporate media report US/UK relations. The reality is that this is undoubtedly the world’s most violent and lawless bilateral alliance in global affairs since 1945. The British public is always fed fairy tales about it.

It’s quite funny that in the British system a PM is now under real political pressure over the issue of Mandelson’s vetting, after being firmly in position for nearly 2 years of complicity in genocide. Is there a German word for this?

Mark Curtis: The govt has appointed a new Prevent commissioner…

The govt has appointed a new Prevent commissioner who will no doubt look into the radicalisation of UK ministers backing Israeli terrorism. He was appointed by security minister Dan Jarvis, who is a Labour Friend of Israel. You have to admit, UK governance is genuinely funny.
