Happy Ed Balls day!

Long but important post. Please share!

I know Tumblr tends to be very US-centric, but there is something happening in my country that I absolutely have to share.

Soon, Brazil will host presidential elections. These are the first elections since the impeachment of our last president Dilma Rouseff.

The leading candidate is currently Jair Bolsonaro. Bolsonaro is a man who has made racist, sexist, and homophobic claims such as, “I would rather my son die in a car accident than be gay,” and, “my sons would not date black women as they were well educated.” He even said to a woman that she was, “so ugly” that she, “didn’t even deserve to get raped.”

A few decades ago, when Brazil was under a military dictatorship, the government tortured many people for speaking out against the regime. Bolsonaro has said that, “their only mistake was not killing those people.”

However, something incredible has been happening.

A movement called Mulheres Unidas Contra Bolsonaro (Women United Against Bolsonaro) has been surfacing. The hashtag #EleNão (#NotHim) has been getting popular and gaining international attention.

Yesterday, women all over Brazil (and the world!) protested against Bolsonaro.

Here are some pictures.

Brazilians living abroad also joined the protests!

New York City, US:

Protests occurred in over 62 cities around the world.

Even if you’re not Brazilian, please share this post! Show your support and raise awareness of the movement!

New research from Edinburgh and Cardiff university draw a rather bleak picture for the future of the “Disunited Kingdom”.

Holy guacamole and cheddy cheese!

“I mean, that’s not really that impres–JESUS FUCKING CHRIST.”

JESUS FUCK

1.1Trl £ in 15 years! - if only UK leaves EU without deal.

And BTW everybody will be a millionaire or a billionaire by then. Just like, for example, the people of Zimbabwe in the recent past. Everyone was a billionaire! And they were a UK colony - I’m pretty sure those guys learned some secret trick from their English overlords!

1.1tr over 15yr isn’t actually that much. About 73bn per year. That would bring the UK back to where it was before 2016.

An additional 73bn in growth on top, would of course be not bad. But he gives zero evidence that this is additional growth or how it can be achieved.

That's because the Tories don't like people with no money tree getting medical treatment that they PAID for through national insurance, the Tories are trying to secure contracts for their rich supporters that keep them in power, enough is enough and it's time to stop this class war and start supporting our fellow citizens instead of the get rich quick greedy fat cats.

Today marks the first working day since the East Coast Line returned, temporarily, to public hands.

This morning, Labour campaigned across the country for the whole railway network to be brought back, permanently, into public hands and run for people, not profiteers.

Happy Statehood Day, Slovenia!
