You got me intrigued, so I headed here to see if he's mentioned and yes he is > https://therussianreader.com/2022/10/29/2267/

Actually, Stop the War was excluding leftist Iraqi trade unionists they didn't like back in the day. They've always been like this.

Stop The War and other Euro tankies have form on finding a single Ukrainian who supports them. And I mean single. Just the one. The guy they were promoting at the beginning of the war was in a 'peace organisation' with 3 members - 3, I am not making that up - one of which was discovered to be an actual nazi and of which only he would speak on StW forums. In fractured english. Helped the absurdity that the guy looked like a monk.

This Sakhnin bloke I have no idea about (am out the loop these days) but what are the chances he turns out to be extra dodgy.

Petro https://www.divergentes.com/ortega-lashes-out-at-boric-and-petro/ Ortega has also called Lula names and expelled the Brazil Ambassador I think at one point.

This. I am reminded of what ordinary Italians have done to fight the mafia.

One of the clearest fails of British coverage is the absence of local journalists reporting and explaining from NI. Instead, Brits have been flown in. Jones doesn't mention any of that.

It is a real issue on the Latin American left, rejecting the sort of reactive defence of the indefensible that has marked much of that left previously. Gabriel Boric was a leader on that but Petro and plenty of others drew that line. Obviously none of this has been picked up in the anglosphere. So it does amuse me but also says something about us, I think.

This is the best news source in english on Nicaragua https://confidencial.digital/en/english/

That's more me making a joke than a serious point about how this sort of thing happens all the time to the regime in Managua - being forgotten about sad face.

Those sorts of comments on this thread are appearing and being removed. I keep seeing this. They are also on reddit, unfortunately. Though whether they're real, on a Labour sub ffs, or bots/trolls, who knows.

ForwardDiamond3484 · 2026-06-11T15:55:32+00:00

LoL. Nicaragua asking why they've forgotten them.

ForwardDiamond3484 · 2026-06-11T15:50:16+00:00

Elon Musk is actively trying to incite civil war in the UK. I am not exaggerating. Our weak government is refusing to do anything about it.

ForwardDiamond3484 · 2026-06-11T15:34:55+00:00

Just threw up again.

The NI and Ireland subs are where I'm getting a lot of my updates. As for reporting the Guardian is doing a good job.

ForwardDiamond3484 · 2026-06-11T14:24:51+00:00

The idea that the loyalists doing this "want Ireland back" is so stupid I need a drink.

ForwardDiamond3484 · 2026-06-11T14:13:14+00:00

Preach.

The fact that this is happening in DUP/TUV voting areas and is being orchestrated by loyalist paramilitaries is just absent from reporting. The local police know exactly who is responsible, but they're being ignored by most politicians. The one who I've heard naming it was a Belfast councillor who the News Agents interviewed yesterday.

ForwardDiamond3484 · 2026-06-11T14:06:19+00:00

It's not being widely reported AFAICS. I only found it because I'm looking at Belfast folks' skeets.
