Meet the Pro-Israel Lawyers Hounding the NHS | Novara Media Itโ€™s had childrenโ€™s artwork removed from hospitals, doctors banned from wearing watermelon pins and claimed craft pens evoked 7 October. Are UK Lawyers for Israel really the cartoon villains they appe...

I was a bit mystified as to why various Israel cranks were so heavily committed to badgering the NHS and the answer appears to be โ€œWe have to preemptively throw shit and smears at anything that has public trust and support, in case they e.g. start talking about children the IDF shoots at some pointโ€

Thereโ€™s renewable energy ads and thereโ€™s mother**cking wind farm ads. This, blissfully, is the latter.

We have learned nothing.

Vast cost overruns are not due to good design. They are due to no design.

Also, why is our political system so aggressively mediocre?

Israel kills innocent Palestinians. Activists spray-paint a plane. Guess which the UK government calls terrorism | Sally Rooney If Palestine Action becomes a proscribed group, writing these words of support could become a serious offence. Itโ€™s vital we fight this alarming attack on free speech, says writer Sally Rooney

Reminder that there are actual armed & active, white 'homegrown' loyalist proscribed terror groups w/ 12,500 members freely operating in N. Ireland. They are so embedded by UK Gov that they receive state funding, high level Government access and effective immunity from investigation & prosecution.

To the vatniks, campists, fascists and self-described "pragmatists" saying "maybe Trump has got a point":
There is one nation and one nation alone that should decide the terms for peace in Ukraine.

Here's something that takes seconds and could have actual positive outcomes.

There is an official 'citizen's petition' system in the EU. There's one open at the moment to ban conversion therapy for LGBT+ people in the EU.

Ireland can be 1 of the 7 nations needed
