The US intervened in foreign elections at least 128 times between 1946 and 2014, to sway outcomes in its own interests, usually to prevent left-wing parties from coming to power. Link in next tweet.

I have a court date: May 27 My case centres on the disgraceful way The Green Party punishes members who challenge the trans mantra. The core of politics is debate over disagreement, but this is forbidden in a Party dominated by the dogma of #believemenindresses.

I brought a motion titled "Ensuring sex and Gender are not conflated when gathering data" to The Green Party conference in 2021. Former co leader Sian Berry lobbied against it & called it transphobic. The motion was taken off the agenda and I was suspended a day later.

The word "preemptive" is propaganda. Iran wasn't about to attack Israel & doesn't have a single nuclear weapon. It's an NPT member. Israel just initiated a war of aggression - the supreme international crime - against Iran. Israel has a nuclear arsenal & is not an NPT member.

On this day in 1954, the United States orchestrated a coup against Jacobo Árbenz, the progressive and democratically-elected leader of Guatemala, because he sought to restore land to small farmers and Indigenous communities that had been dispossessed by US fruit companies. In

This coup was carried out only a year after the US-backed coup in Iran, and was one of dozens that would be inflicted against progressive, socialist, or otherwise anti-imperialist leaders across the global South over the decades that followed.

Israel and the United States are together the single greatest threat to peace and stability in the Middle East. This is obvious to everyone in the region, and to any sane observer.

"‘Climateflation’ could push up UK food prices by more than a third by 2050, report says" As people know, I have been warning of "climateflation" food shocks for a very long time. Unfortunately, this study makes the same mistake others make. theguardian.com/business/2025/… 1/🧵

We’re told that the wealthy are society’s great entrepreneurs. Without them, we’re told, there would be no jobs, no business, no innovation, but that’s a myth. The rich aren’t entrepreneurs. They preserve, protect and hoard instead. It’s time to stop believing their PR myths.

"Water companies enforcing hosepipe bans leak over one billion litres of water a day." Yep, you can't water your plants but they get to leak over 1,000,000,000 litres of water per day from their badly maintained, underinvested, cracked old network of pipes. Ho hum.

Your 'bonus moment of doom' for today: "Is the necessary zero-carbon transformation to our societies, economies, industries, entertainments and sports likely to happen in time to stop the shit from really hitting the fan? Honestly, no, it’s not likely at all. "
