So many pictures of murdered and maimed children. So many.
But also there was a beloved music teacher, Elham Farah, shot in the leg by a sniper to use as bait, then run over by a tank, in November 2023. A beloved old woman. A teacher.

Brilliant.

What a duo of tweets.

Trump has clearly not spoken to a single Palestinian about this plan. Gaza is our land. Palestine is our home. Peace cannot come at the cost of our country.

I urge the UK and the whole international community to resist him.

Recognise Palestine now, before it's too late.

Crucial to be aware of this ongoing threat of ethnic cleansing.

In this moment, it's essential the UK govt turbocharges efforts towards Palestinian statehood and holds the US to account to ensure it keeps within the rule of law and respects human rights including self determination.

Another sewage leak is suspected as a massive turd is spotted floating down a canal.

Well deserved.

The truth. Stand up, speak out, boycott. We are in a dystopian place.

When is he going for Rebecca Wade?

She knew this would happen. That's what courage looks like. By contrast, look at the people in this shot. (With the possible exception of Vance's wife.)

Today and every day.

Repost if you agree! 🦋

James Watt Brewdog's CEO is worth £262,000,000 he is refusing to raise the wage of his staff in London by the £1 an hour to keep them at the National Living Wage.

Brewdog is apparently a 'nice' company, but wage freezes don't seem very nice.

Do they?

A tweet by Veronica Sixsmith reads: "The Carter Center posted some beautiful photos from President Carter's state funeral. I would like to commend the photographer of this shot for finding the perfect angle here. The right-hand column is doing the Lord's work." Below the tweet is a photo of previous and current presidents and their spouses in attendance at the funeral. There is a column blocking Donald Trump.

Give this photographer a bonus.

She cares. They don't. She does. They do nothing. She acts. They politicise. Shame on every politician and journalist staying silent while @jessphillipsmp.bsky.social is trolled by the richest man in the world. Musk could not give a toss about abused children.

Make no mistake. Every politician, pundit & online grifter amplifying Musk's dangerous lies will be aware of this intervention by now. Make no mistake, they are choosing to mislead the public & politicise the suffering of victims in the shameful pursuit of political advantage, attention & clicks.

@bbclaurak.bsky.social is a disgrace. Complicit in the demise of political debate and the rise and destruction of democratic politics. Shame on you.

Farage’s refusal to condemn Musk’s outrageous statements shows total unfitness for public office. But @bbclaurak.bsky.social fails to hold him to account & allows whole interview to be on his terms. No focus on Reform’s divisive policies & no effective challenge to his dangerous insinuations

This is important & necessary. I’d add only that a) It’s clear many of the political & media figures deliberately ignoring these facts are playing with the sort of fire we saw on our streets this summer & b) Laura Kuenssberg’s failure to point this out to Farage was an appalling dereliction of duty.

Possible new leaders of The Reform Party:
Alf Garnett
Ron Atkinson
Soapie Conkers
Biggins
A large potato
Morrissey
Arthur Lowe
Dan Wooden
Julia Fartley -Screwer
The fat dad from that ‘On The Beach’ commercial
Dame Andrea Jeggings
Moist bread
Gregg Wallace
A flea
Prince Andrew.

Some people in recent days have alleged a ‘cover-up’ over the grooming & rape of hundreds of young girls in predominantly northern UK towns, leading to calls for a ‘national’ public inquiry into child sexual exploitation

FWIW here’s a non-exhaustive list of inquiries into #CSE in last 12 yrs…

This is genuinely terrifying. With his endless wealth, he could have dedicated himself to building bridges and making the world a kinder, gentler place.

Instead, he is platforming Tommy Robinson a lot!

Sigh…

Huge thanks to everyone who’s chipped in to make LBD interventions happen this year. We’re 100% funded by small donations & refuse big donors to protect us from becoming reliant on any individual source. Wanna help? Link in bio👆

"It is “too early” to say whether the UK will strip the wife of Bashar al-Assad, Asma al-Assad, of her British citizenship, the prime minister has said." Guardian.

Shamima Begum also went to Syria to marry a terrorist & was stripped in 2024.

The Met investigated Asma for torture & terrorism

Doctors Without Borders is reiterating its urgent calls for the protection of civilians and for an immediate and sustained #ceasefire.

Nowhere is safe in #Gaza and no one is spared.
