UK PEOPLE: this is REALLY IMPORTANT. If the government bans under-16s from using VPNs, then logically they must intend to REQUIRE AGE VERIFICATION FOR ALL VPN USE. Which will affect adults too!

Happy Sunday, as the UK's so-called " #LabourParty" blocks #AndyBurnham's return to the #HouseOfCommons. 👍
#UKLabour's National Executive Commitee has refused #Burnham's request to be allowed to apply to be the by-election candidate in #GortonAndDenton.
Blocking the party's most popular man will
1/ start a huge row in the #RedTories, between fans of hard-right #Starmer and fans of soggy centrist #Burnham.
2/ hand the seat to #GPEW leader #ZackPolanski.
Great work, Starmer! 😈 😂 🤣 #Popcorn

The real risk to the NHS, the real risk of harm to patients is fifteen years of decline, loss of staff and training places.
The real risk to the #NHS is #WesStreeting and #UKLabour not turning the tide.
In 2010 the NHS was both best in the world and best value (half the cost of the US insurance system that benefits corporations and bankrupts patients).
The Tories and this Labour government are knowingly destroying the jewel of UK public services.

# What if I don't want videos of my hobby time available to the entire world?
A new blogpost, pondering on something which has bugged me a bit recently.
Not enough for me to make a fuss, but enough to be on my mind.
@neil
I've read the replies but not your blog.
I resent that my privacy is routinely violated by anyone and everyone - because -commercial anti-social media has blinded everyone to its creating a place of no-privacy for reasons of profit and control.
I turn my face away from passers-by who want to photograph or video me as part of their 'day out', because I expect that content to be made available *globally* without a thought for me. Soon
#UKLabour will make live face recognition compulsory.
Report: The UK Labour Party conference has officially accepted the findings of a recent UN Commission of Inquiry report that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza....
...and has backed comprehensive sanctions on Israel & a full arms embargo.
"This must now become government policy", said Ben Jamal, Palestine Solidarity Campaign

VPNs must not face the chop 🚫
Next week the UK House of Lords will debate whether VPNs undermine the Online Safety Act.
Banning or blocking VPNs will shatter security, privacy and free expression in a self-defeating attempt to make the unworkable workable.

Anything that undermines the #OnlineSafetyAct is likely a very good thing.
I know this was a a Tory bill, but #UKLabour specialise in wrong choices and this was a doozy. But then there are so many others.

"Here is a party that wants to impose cuts on some of the most marginalised people in our society in order to please investors. Here is a party that, for the first time in British history, is criminalising a non-violent activist group, using the most repressive parts of the state to protect the profit margins of arms manufacturers. If these aren’t red lines for you, then frankly you don’t have any."

Any data that is collected will eventually be leaked, stolen or abused, so delete it as soon as the purpose of collection is completed.
We need strict limits on data retention for specific categories of use, not least by law enforcement.
Data collected for one purpose should not be allowed for another purpose without explicit consent from those providing the data in the first place.
#UKLabour are in breach of all these principles on an industrial scale.

80% of Israelis support #Netanyahu's #genocide in #Gaza - and are not troubled by innocent children being starved to death.
Israel is literally a genocidal state of war criminals and the UK should not be trading with them. This is far, far worse than even #Apartheid in South Africa. It is a new #holocaust.
#Israel's mass murder of civilians is supported by 80% of Israelis.
#UKLabour #KierStarmer and #DavidLammy are war criminals for their complicity.

#UKLabour:
- arrest peaceful protesters against *genocide* and threaten dissent with 14 year prison sentences for supporting #PalestineAction
- don't tax BigTech
- leave Russian oligarchs months to get their assets out before applying sanctions
- allow #authoritarian #surveillance using passport photos
- give our private #health records to #Palantir fascists without consent
They are not for us. They are for #capitalism and that becomes #fascism.
The UK government saying "delete old emails" to save water. 🤦♂️
Most emails average about 50k of storage even for someone who gets a lot of attachments, and will have exactly zero effect on data center consumption.
"Don't use cryptocurrency" and "don't use generative AI" would of course be thousands of times more effective.
It is fascism, authoritarianism, genocide - all in the cause of capitalism or wealth inequality.
I see the stasi… sorry I mean the police in London arrested this 89 year old terrorist yesterday. Thank goodness we could all sleep last night knowing we were safe from her. 😒 #PrimeMinister#KeirStarmer#YvetteCooper#Labour#LabourParty#UKLabour#Westminster#Stasi#Tories#Conservatives #SaorAlba

So many police officers in Parliament Square. Marchers joining them down Whitehall right now
