A study published in The Lancet by UNRWA & partners reinforces the confirmation of famine in #Gaza City and further underscores the need for immediate, unimpeded humanitarian aid.

Children in Gaza are suffering from preventable causes. This must stop.

Nigel Farage has not Tweeted about Michelle Mone once.

And in 2023 when the scandal first came up he said it wasn't a big deal.

He's not anti-Establishment he supports it more than anyone.

Man arrested after fire at London asylum seekers' hotel The blaze is being treated as a hate crime by officers investigating.

A 64-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of arson with intent to endanger life after a fire at a London hotel housing asylum seekers.

This is where we are now. Where are the politicians to call this out? Or do they not want to upset their right wing base?

One thing is true a lot of people are eating Nigel Farage's BS about foreigners.

And when other people reinforce or don't challenge this BS, it only makes the problem worse.

Condemn Farage he is a disgusting, racist man who is happy to spread any lie, racist, Tylenol or swan.

NOTHING will prepare you for this 45-second story arc. From "I'm just doing this because I love the flag, it's totally grassroots, and I'm not part of anything political"... to who actually gave him the flags the night before.

Anyone who believes it is an innocent movement needs to see this.

β€œGaza is hell on earth. Our own staff are fainting on duty from hunger and exhaustion,” says UNRWA Juliette Touma to BBC.

During the ceasefire, 500–600 trucks a day entered #Gaza with aid from the UN, including UNRWA. That’s what prevented famine before.

That system must be restored.

Fearless and independent investigative journalism is needed more than ever in these times. Attempts to suppress this story on Trump and the KGB demonstrate this ⬇️
