• A RECENT puff piece in The Guardian on Tulip Siddiq clearly illustrated the flagrant triviality of what passes for British “journalism”, “politics”, “socialism” and “feminism”, as well as the collusion of the press in perpetrating mass stupidity.

We joined Jeremy Corbyn and John McDonnell’s Labour Party because we – and our children – support unconditionally a world based on human rights and the fair distribution of welfare and opportunity.

We expect our MP to promote the Labour manifesto, but we appear to have been instructed that her gynaecology issues are of greater importance. This is not so.

Tell Tulip Siddiq to walk down Kilburn High Road and she will find homeless, mentally ill, starving, and stateless people of far more importance than her own little diary delay.

What about women losing their children because they can’t feed, clothe and care for them on Universal Credit and slashed disability and mobility allowances? What about women sold into slavery and prostitution, murdered by violent men and their own families?

And how can she boast that she hasn’t spoken to the 25 per cent of leavers she believes may exist in her constituency? MPs have substantial support and incomes but little accountability.

Meanwhile The Guardian has become a cross between Hello magazine and The Daily Mail, with fawning articles on royalty, and the Kardashians (!!!) interspersed with opinionated trash from middle-aged women whose “Me Too” victim whining is pointless and frankly trivial.

Some of us realised that Bush and Blair and their murder and displacement of innocent people fed into a number of objectives, especially the benefits to the share-holders to be made by the military industrial profits of “civilised, democratic” states.

When you see a homeless refugee, please try to remember who desecrated their countries, families and civilisations. Wake up people. Take back our compassion, integrity and humanity.
