As the Soviet Union stood alone in the fight against fascism during World War II as Hitler's hoardes invaded Eastern Europe, Churchill’s refusal to open a genuine second front was echoed by Labour’s very own Clement Attlee.
Attlee backed Churchill’s decision to delay a western invasion. An act that cost millions of Soviet lives. This was more than tactical caution; it reflected a shared wish between the two men to watch fascism and communism destroy each other, while British imperial interests remained intact.
Attlee’s Labour Party gave no pushback and happily went along with it. Their objective, like that of all British capitalists, was to preserve British imperial dominance, not liberate the continent or protect their allies
The post‑war Attlee government remained deeply imperialist, no less than any British imperial administrations before or after. Those on the Labour left who dine out on the reforms of 1945–51 conveniently ignore this reality, along with countless inconvenient truths that shatter the tidy myth of a progressive Labour legacy

The money being thrown around by the oil states of the middle east in an attempt to build their leagues is ridiculous. They are playing monopoly with old Kent road and the whole bank balance.

Irish Free State Minister for Housing James Brown has launched his New Housing Strategy to keep rents from spiraling...
Well good auld Pinochio Brown the Minister for Landlords has came up with a scheme to make them even richer.
So here we go..
This is his plan
Pinochio is going to increase rents, yes increase rents which will attract more corporate investors to borrow money off the bankers to build more houses and apartments for rent which will expand the private housing portfolio.
Now this will increase the housing supply and reduce rents which will make the properties worth less so they can sell to other landlords and on and on and on. See wasn't that simple!!
Yea right Pinochio!!!
You're the Minister for Landlords quit the Bullshit

An update from the streets of Glasgow. Today Police Scotland arrested long time peace activist Sean Clerkin for holding a sign ennoscriptd "No To Genocide We Need Action for Palestine now!"
For a small demonstration of 15 people ten cops turned out. Funnily enough we were only two blocks away from a notorious crack dealing hot-spot where police action is non-existent.
