Never in a million years would I have imagined that it would be a #Labour government that would turn the #UK into a full-on 1984 state where the #righttoprotest would be stripped and #Newspeak would be so out of hand in the oligarchist and state #media that #antisemitism would be used to label #Jews who demonstrate against #genocide.

That being said, I'd known that #KeirStarmer was a danger from his #Corbyn backstabbing days and I refused to vote his party in.

Justice and the rule of law are essential for a democratic, trustworthy, and inclusive Europe.

The proposed EU budget will allocate nearly €800 million to the Justice Programme.

It will deliver:
⚖️ Faster cross-border justice
⚖️ Better access to justice for all
⚖️ Smarter use of digital tools
⚖️ Stronger support for victims
⚖️ More use of digital tools
⚖️ Cross-border cooperation to fight serious crime

Justice that works for people strengthens trust in our democracy.

@EUCommission

Seriously?
You can not speak of 'justice' and "strengthening trust in our democracy', while still pushing endlessly for chatcontrol.

It doesn't work that way!

One of the most important observations in 1984 is one of the least noted; NewSpeak involves disguising the workings of dictatorial power behind a pantomime of its opposite. The propaganda arm of the regime is called the Ministry of Truth ("Minitrue" in NewSpeak). The military arm is called the Ministry of Peace ("Minipax").

We need to keep this in mind when we see governmental entity called the Ministry of Regulation, or the Department of Government Efficiency.
