In 1993 IRA bomb attacks killed 2 children in Warrington. The bombings were roundly condemned by everyone -except the Revolutionary Communist party who said — “we defend the right of the Irish people to take whatever measures are necessary in their struggle for freedom”.
One of the leaders of the RCP then was Claire Fox. Claire is now standing for the Brexit party in NW England which includes the town of Warrington. What an insult to the people of that place.

It's like a calculated insult and nobody seems to care @warringtonnews @BBCPolitics
Sorry to bang on about this but it makes my blood boil. The abject fucking hypocrisy of these ersatz patriots. Now going to do some work

So I made a FOI request about James Dyson's farm and how his water reservoir was funded and guess who paid for it ladies and gentlemen?
Taking back control .....
As the Brexiters are always eager to tell us "the EU has no money" so that's OUR money being taken by billionaire Mr Dyson to fund his water reservoir.....

How to spot a Russian bot. A linguistic guide. Russian bots tend - like many Russian speakers - to be unusually direct and aggressive when trying to speak English.
Russian bots will often defend Putin/Crimea/ conspiracy theories somewhere in their feed. The Russian language has no articles (a, an, the) so they often muddle these
Finally there's the "so called" thing. Russian speakers overuse the phrase. And wrongly. It's a mistranslation.

I've been sent this horrendous story:  UK TEFL teacher Andy Russell. Lived in Far East - met a local woman called Molly, married, had kids. 1/5
They eventually return to UK in 2012. Under stringent laws - introduced under May - Molly is then obliged to return to China while Andy searches for job that will earn at least £18,600 – the minimum earnings threshold for his wife to be allowed to stay. 2/5
They are forced to communicate through Skype and Molly becomes known as “computer mummy”. Eventually she is given permission to stay but guess what?

A short thread about Nigel Farage’s new Brexit Party candidates from Spiked (Claire Fox & Alka Cuthbert - also active in the Full Brexit pressure group), their Northern Ireland backstory, and the crapness of our media:
1/ A while back I looked at Sunday Times allegations about Jeremy Corbyn’s IRA links brockley.blogspot.com/2018/09/jeremy… with a follow up about the Warrington bombings and the general climate on the left at the time brockley.blogspot.com/2018/09/three-…
2/ I noted that most of the left were broadly pro-Republican in the 1980s, for good reasons, but that the Warrington bombings & similar atrocities turned the tide. Even the most hardcore pro-IRA groups supported the peace process.

With the news that "ex-communist" #ClaireFox is standing for the #BrexitParty of #NigelFarage (with the backing of @spikedonline - Ed. Brendan O'Neill), let's have a look at the views of the RCP/LivingMarxism/Spiked on Irish Republicanism over the years. 1/11
The RCP (aka RCT then) refused to "condemn or criticise the Birmingham bombings". (The Next Step. No. 3 1980) 2/11

Indeed they held the view that only when "large numbers of British workers respond to IRA bombs with jubilation" would they consider criticising the Provos. (The Next Step No. 10. 1981) 3/11

The idea of ​​unrestricted warfare has always run through the Chinese #Communist Party’s military practices, and has these characteristics: “a war beyond all boundaries and limits,” “forcing the enemy to accept one’s own interests by all means, including…theepochtimes.com/chapter-eighte…
…methods of force and non-force, military and non-military, killing and non-killing.”

“The means are all-inclusive, information is omnipresent, the battlefield is everywhere” — “beyond all political, historical, cultural, and moral shackles.”
Unrestricted warfare means that “all weapons and technologies can be used at will; it means that all the boundaries between the worlds of war and non-war, military and non-military are broken.”

From 'How the Specter of Communism is Ruling Our World,' Ch. 18.

1) is it really right wing rhetoric and conspiracy theory to call the leftist mob in the streets Communists?

lets take a look
2) i wasnt a partisan in 2016 and had not watched television for 2 1/2 years by the time the election was going on. scanning headlines was the only news i received. if you know what to look for thats enough
3) when i first heard about the trump protests i was almost indifferent to #trump (that changed), but i didn't think it was random organic activism

99% of protesters are the lowest common denominator. and LCD's need to be shepherded. i wanted to identify the shepherds/sponsors
