“Welcome to the era of ‘hostage politics’, where Labour is apparently your only hope.”
“There is contempt here. Instead of changes to the tax system, and a commitment to thinking differently about an economic paradigm that has reached an undeniable dead end, Labour looks at the rising wave of populist politics and decides to tell voters that populism is the problem, not the world that created it.”
Nesrine Malik in the Guardian

Welcome to the era of ‘hostage politics’, where Labour is apparently your only hope
First it was the Conservatives and now Reform. The only thing the government has to offer is that it’s the least worst option, says Guardian columnist Nesrine MalikNesrine Malik (The Guardian)
[repost Legalna Aborcja] Nie mamy wątpliwości, że napis na tym transparencie to prawda. @abotakprzychodnia powstała właśnie po to by pomagać - bez względu na powód, bez oceniania - po to by każda osoba, która potrzebuje aborcji otrzymała wsparcie.
Powstała w tym miejscu, pod Sejmem, bo politycy i polityczki od lat udawali, że aborcji nie ma zakłamując rzeczywistość. Antyaborcyjne prawo jakie mamy w Polsce skonstruowane jest tak, by osoby, które aborcje robią zostawały z tym doświadczeniem same, wpędzane w poczucie wstydu, winy i strachu.
Ponad 130 osób dziennie robi aborcje tylko ze wsparciem #aborcjabezgranic, a 250-300 to liczba aborcji robionych w Polsce każdego dnia. 1 na 3 kobiety w Polsce ma doświadczenie aborcji. (CBOS, Doświadczenia aborcyjne Polek)
Prawo antyaborcyjne po wyborach z 2023 roku miało się zmienić, a jest coraz gorzej. Organizacje, które każdego dnia zapewniają dostęp do aborcji (wyręczając w tym państwo) nie otrzymują żadnego wsparcia od rządu. Stosunek osób u władzy do aborcji widać wyraźnie po tym co od dwóch miesięcy dzieje się pod @abotakprzychodnia - politycy i polityczki znów myślą, że jeśli odwrócą głowę to aborcja zniknie.
A aborcja jest. Nie wystarczy zamknąć oczu, by przestała być potrzebna, odwrócić głowy, by kobiety przestały ją robić. Aborcja jest, bo jest potrzebna kobietom, aby czuły się bezpieczne, aby mogły decydować o swoim życiu i o życiu swojej rodziny. Aborcja to doświadczenie wielu z nas, slogan wyborczy.
@abotakprzychodnia @aborcyjnydream dziękujemy, że jesteście! Trudniej nam jest pomoc Wam na miejscu, na Wiejskiej, ale wspieramy każdego dnia!

Myanmar's shadow government said an airstrike by the ruling junta had killed at least 17 students and injured 20 others at a school in an opposition-controlled area on Monday, despite a ceasefire being in place after a devastating earthquake.

Trump loses his mind over pushback to Qatar jet deal
Summary
Trump lashed out at bipartisan critics after reports revealed he plans to accept a $400 million Boeing 747-8 jet from Qatar for use as Air Force One.
In a Truth Social post, Trump dismissed concerns as “world class losers” complaining about a transparent gift. Qatar stated the plane is under legal review between its Ministry of Defense and the Pentagon.
Critics, including Sen. Bernie Sanders, Sen. Chris Murphy, and Rep. Jamie Raskin, accused Trump of corruption and violating the Constitution.
Even allies like Laura Loomer led the MAGA pushback to the jet deal.

L'immagine presenta un'opera d'arte in stile linocut, caratterizzata da un forte contrasto tra il blu turchese e il bianco. Al centro dell'immagine, un grande pesce, probabilmente un balenoptera, è rappresentato in modo stilizzato. Il corpo del pesce è decorato con piccoli punti bianchi, che suggeriscono le scaglie, e presenta linee bianche che delineano le sue forme. Il pesce sembra muoversi attraverso un'acqua rappresentata da curve bianche che si estendono in tutte le direzioni, creando un senso di movimento e dinamismo. Lo sfondo è uniformemente blu turchese, che accentua la figura del pesce e le curve bianche. L'opera d'arte è composta in modo da guidare lo sguardo del viewer attraverso il movimento del pesce e delle onde, creando un'atmosfera vivace e fluida.

In the center, there is a metal strainer with a white cloth placed over it, positioned on a glass bowl. A clear plastic bottle with a red ring near the neck is pouring a liquid onto the cloth. To the left, there is a halved lemon and a whole lemon, along with a small bowl of white granulated sugar. To the right, there are metal measuring spoons, a small bowl of white powder, and two corks. The background includes a white and black checkered cloth. The scene suggests a process involving straining a liquid, possibly related to making lemonade or another citrus-based beverage.
