I know there is a lot going on in the world right now but it pales into insignificance compared to the horror I have just witnessed in a #Newbury cafe this morning.
Someone is eating an iced pastry with a knife & fork!

The Palestine Laboratory – EP 1 Uncovering how Israel profits from surveillance technologies using occupied Palestinian territories as a testing ground.

Went last night to see #ThePalestineLaboratory, based on the book by Antony Loewenstein, filmed by Dan Davies, of Black Leaf Films.
How Israel has tested its weapons and surveillance equipment to expand its lucrative arms sales.
Tested on Palestinians.
A must watch.

There can be no *new* oil and gas drilling if we want a safe, habitable world.

Yet, a tiny club of wealthy countries – πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈUS, πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦Canada, πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊAustralia, πŸ‡³πŸ‡΄Norway and πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§the UK – are responsible for *51% of all planned oil and gas field developments* from now to 2050.

That's the real hypocrisy ahead of #COP28
