New: Bishop warns asylum plans will fuel division A senior Church of England bishop has criticised government asylum reforms, warning they will make integration significantly harder

The Bishop of Norwich has taken aim at the Home Office’s asylum reforms, warning they’ll make integration harder and deepen division. A rare intervention – and a sharp one.

"In its daily report, the ministry said that hospitals received the bodies of 23 civilians as well as 83 wounded people during the past 24 hours.

Since the ceasefire agreement took effect on October 10, 2025, at least 339 Palestinians have been killed and 871 others injured."

"Instead of unbroken golden sand, the shoreline is littered with millions of tiny plastic pellets – bio-beads – spilled into the sea by Southern Water and now washing up in waves. They are a chilling reminder of how fragile our environment is, and how carelessly some treat it." Worth a read ⤵️

Transcripts of a 2019 phone call between President Trump and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman would "shock" Americans. @repvindman.bsky.social is urging Congress to declassify this "highly disturbing" conversation. He joins me at 11 a.m. EST to explain why. #Velshi

Epstein Files: How making the conversation about Clinton or Trump is an injustice to the victims There’s a weird conversation surrounding the Epstein Files as people coalesce around the “If Bill Clinton is guilty” narrative.

We're still focussing on the wrong things with the Epstein files. It shouldn't be about getting any person. It should be about getting justice for the victims. open.substack.com/pub/kellysca...

The Confidence Trick That Put Boris Johnson Into Power Is Now Being Used on Nigel Farage The same people who convinced the British public to back a catastrophic Boris Johnson premiership are now pulling the same trick again with Nigel Farage

In the same week that new revelations broke of Farage’s long history of outright racism, & a court found one of his closest associates literally in the pockets of Vladimir Putin, senior commentators still pretending this is a man who we should somehow take seriously as the next PM of the UK

Nigel Farage needs investigating by the police for the same reasons as Nathan Gill.
His whole party is rotten and the rot starts at the top.
No Russian money can be allowed in British politics.

Israel is building a new wall, miles deep into Lebanon, as part of its greater Israel project- breaking all international laws.

FFS 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

And the international ‘community’ says what???

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.

We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.

We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

Phone flashes an Haaretz alert. Israel bombs Southern Beirut.

Just another day when Israel bombs the fυcκ out of whoever it sees fit.

It's exhausting.

Israeli forces launched an airstrike on Beirut’s Dahieh district.

Forest City 1 Britain needs millions of homes. We have a plan and a team to build them, east of Cambridge, as a beautiful, permanently affordable city.

What have I been warning about for the last several years?
Tories and Labour's collusion on freeports and SEZs would form stepping stones for charter cities.
The latest proposal for a new city named "Forest City" exemplifies the stealth trajectory of the zonification of Britain. www.forestcity.uk

"You Have Arrived in Hell": New Evidence Confirms Torture of Deported Venezuelans in El Salvador A new HRW report confirms what I warned about in March: Venezuelans deported to El Salvador were systematically tortured. Half had no criminal record. Many were asylum seekers. We paid for this.

He’s right, I’ve checked.

Meanwhile, a new report from Human Rights Watch finds the Israeli government’s forced displacement of 32,000 Palestinians in three West Bank refugee camps in January and February amounts to war crimes and crimes against humanity.
