And here's what I would say to the senior executives of Lidl, Morrisons & Sainsbury's... You're very highly paid & presumably intelligent people - no one believes your supermarkets are selling Israeli goods by accident. You are choosing to sell Israeli goods and that can sit on your consciences.

But it hasn't stopped Morrisons, Lidl and Sainsbury's highlighting Fairtrade products when it has suited their PR goals. The Israeli gov' has killed 70k+ Palestinians since 2023 & these supermarkets don't think that's important enough to stop selling Israel products...

UK Labour deserve this take-down. And while we're talking about Palestine, in recent weeks I've seen Morrisons, Lidl and Sainsbury's selling avocados from Israel. Maybe they don't think ethics is their remit...

Tourists to US would have to reveal five years of social media activity under new Trump plan Proposed plan would apply to tourists of all countries, including those not required to get a visa to visit the US

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Presumably, tourism isn't an important part of the US economy, because if this is implemented a lot of people will avoid visiting the US.

Zelenskyy ‘ready for elections’ after Trump questions Ukrainian democracy Zelenskyy says he would hold wartime elections within months given help from allies and Ukraine’s parliament

www.theguardian.com/world/2025/d...

Strange how Trump isn't also calling for free and fair elections in Russia.

Could it be that the call for Ukrainian elections doesn't come from Trump's love of democracy? Anyone remember what happened after the 2020 US election?

Tim Davie resigns as BBC director general after accusations of ‘serious and systemic’ bias in coverage Davie says departure is ‘my own decision’, while head of news also quits. Insiders say it ‘feels like a coup’ by broadcaster’s enemies

Trump described the BBC as “corrupt journalists”, posting on his Truth Social platform: “These are very dishonest people who tried to step on the scales of a Presidential Election."

From the man who tried to overturn the 2020 election. He's a vile human being.

The war zone in Portland is out of control.

Congratulations, Trump Supporters, You've Owned the Libs Well, Trump Supporters, as a member of the woke radical Left, it kills me to say this, but you win.

Congrats, Trump supporters, you’ve owned the Libs—and all it’s cost you is a functioning government, a working democracy, human rights, national peace, economic stability, inexpensive groceries, affordable healthcare, qualified leaders, and global standing.

Netanyahu suggests ‘weakness on terrorism’ led to UK synagogue attack Israeli PM calls for ‘strength and unity’ while foreign minister accuses UK of inaction against antisemitism

www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

All murder is tragedy, including these in Manchester. But here we have Netanyahu & Gideon Sa’ar, who've overseen more than 60,000 deaths in Gaza, condemning 2 deaths. It's almost like they think Jewish lives are worth more than Palestinian lives...

#warcriminals

I’m confused how it is despicable to ask that question. These are exactly the kinds of questions we have been begging reporters & TV hosts to ask. You see when they do get asked how sensitive they are about it. Much, much more of this. More crypto questions, Qatar, UAE, etc bsky.app/profile/atru...

But it kind of proves my point - Labour aren't bothered about Bluesky because they no longer care about left and left-centre voters!

Couldn't agree more. It's a shame that Labour dropped all its principles to attract swing voters and soft Tory voters.

The international community has to secure a Palestinian state. Israel is not going to do it for them.

Netanyahu vows to ‘finish job’ in Gaza during UN speech as delegates walk out Israeli prime minister said recognition of Palestinian state is ‘insane’ days after countries such as UK and France did so

www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

The obvious problem with Netanyahu referring to October 7 is that his gov' has killed WAY more people since. He's a war criminal. Those who support/tolerate him should remember how apartheid South Africa is now viewed. Karma has no loopholes.

If you voted for him, you've done this.

Feel like both Republican and Democrat politicians should be making a lot more noise about law enforcement wearing masks. If Maga really believe the ICE policies are warranted why would officers wear masks?

I honestly don’t care about James Comey.

But I want to live in a democratic republic.

His indictment proves we live in a banana republic, where the autocrat personally orders indictments of his political enemies, and when his own officials refuse he finds new ones that will.

Is Trump right that Russia’s economy is on the brink of collapse? While VAT is going up to finance the war and fuel is in short supply, few expect Putin to adjust his war plans

IDF may attack camps of displaced people after Gaza City, says ex-general Yaakov Amidror says ‘central camps’ could be next target, as aid workers there say they have been warned of attacks

www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

The flip side of Israel giving Gazans only days or weeks to evacuate their homes in Gaza is that they set a precedent for how long Israelis should be given to leave illegal settlements in the West Bank when a just two-state solution is implemented.
