Half the over 500 people arrested at the rally against the Palestine Action ban in London are over 60 years. On my UK visit in May I met many people of my generation & older who are standing up for Palestinians and demanding an end to UK govt complicity in the Gaza genocide. flic.kr/p/2rj99FQ

I always wondered what happened to the money people sent to people in Gaza- now I know- much of it is taken by disgusting people taking advantage of their desperation and charging a huge fee to cash it.

In sympathy of the Unbeautiful Bull of a bill the GOP are passing on this US holiday. To those Americans who voted otherwise- my sincere sympathies on the loss of your democracy. #BoycottUSA #FreeGaza #CanadaNotForSale

My take on #ElbowsUp Eve of #tRUMP signing his #UnBeautifulBull into on #July4 Not celebrating, millions of US people who will lose health coverage & food stamps etc. so his billionaire buddies get further tax breaks. U get what you voted 4 & Those who didn’t vote, you get what you didn’t vote for.

Danger due to #PeePee… could be referring to dog urine or Poilievre, or both, a sign on a bee friendly garden.

The right will agitate to tar Carney like they did Trudeau but no fake accusations will convince intelligent Canadians to vote for a slogan spouting creep like #Poilievre.

Israel declares that bombing a hospital constitutes a war crime. How many war crimes has Israel committed to date in Gaza and Iran that they will admit to? Or is it only a war crime when an Israeli hospital is hit?

Today 22 Palestinians were killed by the Israeli military while seeking aid. Yesterday, at least 69 Palestinians were killed by the Israeli military—29 while waiting for aid trucks in another death trap as they struggled to feed their families.

How does Israel restrict its media from reporting on the Iran conflict? The military censor has introduced a slew of new restrictions on journalists covering the unfolding war.
