How far is the Labour government prepared to allow its morality to fall, in its uncritical support for Israel.Yet another day of starvation,bombing,death and destruction…..a horrifying spectacle…..

The image is a poster with a bold message painted in large, green, brushstroke-style letters on a dark background. It reads:
β€œFIGHT POVERTY NOT THE POOR”

The style is raw and expressive, conveying urgency and social activism. At the bottom, it includes the text β€œPoor People’s Campaign | poorpeoplescampaign.org” and credits the design to Jesse Purcell, 2017.

The independent regulator has announced a Β£2,500 pay rise for MPs.

At a time when disabled people are facing the biggest cuts to disability benefits on record, this is simply wrong.

I’ll be donating mine to charities supporting disabled people in Coventry & across the country.

South Africa needs our solidarity and its President need to refrain from going begging to Trump for 'forgiveness'. South Africa must build up its home grown industries while continuing to confront the Apartheid-loving Trumpists with moderation & courage www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPRZ...

UK billionaires added Β£182,000,000,000 to their wealth last year. That’s Β£35,000,000 every single day.

Their combined wealth is Β£795,361,000,000.

So don't let anyone tell you austerity is a β€œnecessity”. There’s more than enough wealth to fund our NHS, public services & welfare.

Learning from an awe-inspiring immense ecosystem that has returned to life Rewilding ecologist and author Eoghan Daltun visited Costa Rica to see first-hand how the country has managed over the last 30 years to reverse one of the worst deforestation rates in all Latin Americ...

Costa Rica has massively rewilded over recent decades. Has this led to the collapse of farming, rural society, or national wellbeing?

Totally the opposite, and we in Ireland have SO much to learn from their example. My piece for the @irishexaminer.bsky.social

As Israel intensified its bombing of Gaza in 2024, it also increased its repressive measures in the occupied West Bank, which saw record numbers of attacks by Israeli occupation forces and violent settlers

Israel has chosen to mark the first days of Ramadan by blocking humanitarian aid to Gaza.

Still, our government refuses to implement sanctions and defend international law.

There is no other way of putting it: this is a resumption of genocide β€” and our government is complicit.

It’s scary figuring out that the system is rigged.

It’s easier to believe that you’re just not working hard enough than it is to accept you’re being screwed over by those at the top.

As some Jewish philanthropists withdraw funding, others are standing up for Palestinian causes (RNS) β€”Β A newer group of Jewish philanthropists has begun to challenge restrictions in funding to organizations critical of Israel.

A recent full-page ad in the New York Times that stated, β€œJewish people say NO to ethnic cleansing!” was paid for by In Our Name, a Jewish-led effort to raise money for organizations that support Palestinian safety and self-determination.
