Disgusting

Sounds like the UK

All week the pro-Israel and pro-Trump supporters screamed at us, in unison: why aren’t you celebrating the ceasefire??

Because we knew it wouldn’t last. But even I didn’t think it’d be over in less than a week. What a complete & utter humiliation for Trump, thanks to Netanyahu.

Labour's 'Farage is right, just don't vote for him' strategy is going about as well as expected

Also worth watching this interview with Greta Thunberg in Barcelona yesterday.

European leaders will now reveal whether they care about International Law as they’ve so far been pretending, or whether they are simply weak powerless nobodies.

What put the UK on the wrong track?

Hussam al-Masri, the Reuters journalist killed by Israeli fire in Gaza Hussam al-Masri, the Reuters journalist killed by Israeli fire on Monday while operating a live video feed at Gaza's Nasser Hospital, reported on the war's civilian suffering while himself living in a tent and struggling to find food for his family.

‘Hussam al-Masri, the Reuters journalist killed by Israeli fire on Monday while operating a live video feed at Gaza's Nasser Hospital, reported on the war's civilian suffering while living in a tent and struggling to find food for his family.’

Why, you might ask, do the BBC and Sky News, casting their editorial guidelines to the wind, keep giving massive airtime to the far right, while shutting out leftwing voices? Don't their bosses understand the likely consequences?
Only one explanation now remains.
They do.
And it is what they want.

Remember when people were outraged at the suggestion that Isra3l would bomb a hospital? This week, they did it twice. First to injure patients and healthcare workers, second to injure the journalists who responded to the first bombing. This is so obviously criminal it’s hard to know what to say.

Insanity speaks and has power. Shocking times.

Well isn’t this lovely.

Leader of the Liberal Democrats Ed Davey explains why he is boycotting the state banquet with President Donald Trump over inaction on Gaza

"If Donald Trump chose to act the killing would stop"

Trump chooses not to end the Gaza slaughter. That’s why I’ll boycott the state dinner when he meets King Charles | Ed Davey To refuse an invitation like this goes against all my instincts, but I want to send as strong a message as I can, says Liberal Democrat leader Ed Davey

Why is my Blue Sky news feed silent on Gaza whilst my Threads feed is full? I find it bizarre, is Blue Sky blocking pro Palestine posts? If so, I am out of here. Free Palestine, stop the genocide, feed Gaza!

Reform UK, which has a grand total of four MPs, was just given an uninterrupted platform for an hour and a half on the BBC and Sky News channels, in order to talk about its plans for mass deportations

When was the last time the Greens (with four MPs) or the Lib Dems (with 72) were given the same?

The Israeli government has adopted the double-strike tactic used by Bashar al-Assad in Syria: target a hospital or heavily populated area, then hit it again when rescue workers, reporters and medics turn up, to kill or maim them too. Hideous war crimes piled one upon another.

I find it weird how few posts on Palestine and Gaza show up on my Blue Sky timeline feed whilst significantly more appear on my Threads. I desperately want to use Blue Sky more but this is a subject close to my heart and Blue Sky isn't providing enough content

The State of Palestine must be recognised now — not bargained over.

No conditions, no delays. Here’s why 👇

I support Palestine Action in its judicial review of the government's ban.

All words. He needs to DO SOMETHING. ENOUGH!

Someone prove this wrong.

Dear UK Labour

**TAX WEALTH** you absolute planks.

Twelve days in Gaza: what happened while the world looked away? One of the consequences of Israel’s 12-day conflict with Iran was a drop-off in attention paid to the war in Gaza, where a terrible humanitarian situation deteriorated even further. This is a timeline of what happened

Not just excess, it’s a system built to keep people hungry so the rich can keep feasting. But the masses are waking up.

Powerful video…

The Chan-Zuckerbergs stopped funding social causes. 400 kids lost their school. Priscilla Chan and Mark Zuckerberg’s retreat from funding social issues forced the closure of a school Chan opened for disadvantaged families in Silicon Valley.

Priscilla Chan’s decision to stop funding the school she opened to help struggling families shows the risks for communities reliant on wealthy private donors.

Exactly. Why the fear of taxing the uber wealthy who won't notice much of a change if any to their lives? Taking the poorer and more vulnerable is insane and cruel. Leave them alone.
