Ugh. More venal / effort to eliminate - by (re) imposing poll taxes to election rigging and prevent free, fair elections.

Today in Labor History November 28, 1990: Margaret Thatcher resigned in tears after a mass non-payment of her hated poll tax forced her out of office. The tax was a flat tax, hugely unfair, charging all adults, regardless of their wealth or income, the same amount. At the height of the campaign, nearly half of all British adults, 17 million people, had refused to pay the tax. The Labour Party refused to back any protest of the tax. But Anti-Poll Tax Unions formed across the country, and there were thousands of demonstrations, many of which became riots after mounted police charged the protesters. Over 100 were injured and more than 330 were arrested in the protests.

Farage “firmly opposed to @Keir_Starmer’s digital ID cards” | …I hate it when I agree with him:

“It will make no difference to illegal immigration, but it will be used to control and penalise the rest of us. The state should never have this much power.”

Though I suspect that he just wants to have his own (not “Starmer’s”) ID cards, instead. I wonder if this will be Labour’s “Poll Tax”?

#resist #actives #antifa #politics #palestineaction #refugeeswelcome #nrm #forevereuropean Is it me? It's that time of year when organisers get organised only to find just how many 'virtue signallers' there are amongst our numbers. Please note I do not march on Saturdays, only aggravates the tourists. I'm a 'stop the city' #polltax vet. Effective #NVDA needs to be targeted. Weds / Thurs best for #westminster

On 31 March 1990, Trafalgar Square saw its largest number of arrested protesters with a staggering 339 people arrested because they objected to paying the hated #PollTax.

That was until 6 days ago, when that ceiling of 339 was smashed!

More people were arrested for showing their support for #PalestineAction then there were who showed their disapproval of the #PollTax

I've not got a big history of protest, sadly. In my 72 orbits of the Sun I've previously only been on one march for #stopTheWar, I came close with the #pollTax and genuinely sad not to be one of the #PalestineAction 500. At least I can boost and give my virtual support.
