"No amount of photoshoots featuring Labour MPs with hammed up indignation on their faces will erase the central fact. This government is helping to facilitate genocide. Under legal pressure, it has suspended fewer than 9% of arms export licences to Israel, and continues to send crucial components for F-35 jets to rain death and destruction on Gaza’s traumatised survivors"

The Guardian · Israel deporting two Labour MPs? The British government is finally outragedBy Owen Jones

The EU, China, Japan, Canada, Mexico, Vietnam and others, all hit back or at least done something. I defy you to find any semblance of meaning in this from Starmer. Any iota of an inkling of a plan. One sentence or even two words strung together that aren’t complete and utter political speak bullshit. The man utters a thousands words and never do they mean anything. Absolutely full of shit and I voted for him for context

The UK's murder prediction AI will create a dangerous, criminalising loop.

This tech repackages flawed police data as neutral. Then replicates itself.

The existing over-policing of racialised, low income and migrant communities will be hardwired into police operations.

We need #SafetyNotSurveillance

The Guardian · UK creating ‘murder prediction’ tool to identify people most likely to killBy Vikram Dodd

“UK creating ‘murder prediction’ tool to identify people most likely to kill.”

Hmmm. I’m sure I saw this years ago. Wasn’t it a tv series called Person of Interest? Or Spielberg movie? Or Philip K Dick novella?

Hmmm… UK’s Ministry of Justice seems to be developing Pre-crime which they called “homicide prediction project”.

We are really now living in the future.
