The UK Government claims that it is "doing all it can" to bring about a ceasefire in Gaza.
The truth is, it is complicit in Israel's genocide on Gaza: here's why.

Nigel Farage missed Keir Starmer's Commons statement on the UK-EU Summit earlier this week.
He's now missing today's Westminster Hall debate on the summit.
Because just a few days before parliamentary recess, he's on holiday.
(Which is his 10th trip abroad at least since the general election).

Thread on solving the 90-in-180 day problem π§΅
The solutions to the 90-in-180 day problem are many and varied. Politicians really have **no** excuse for inaction.
Any of the following provide models for solutions or are solutions in themselvesβ¦
The people behind Brexit are the same politicians now using immigrants as scapegoats to win power and divide our country. They trashed our economy and theyβve trashed our politics - donβt let them do it all over again.
14.05.2025 08:19 β π 120 π 37 π¬ 5 π 5One thing Iβve often commented on on social media is that thereβs actually only a very small cadre of people Trump can rely onβas he seeks out (and can work with) only the most corrupt, unscrupulous, venal, disreputable folks to do his bidding. Itβs no surprise he needs his lawyer to do double-duty.
12.05.2025 21:50 β π 408 π 104 π¬ 27 π 72025: Keir Starmer suggests that pressure on housing and public services is because of migrants
2020: Keir Starmer, "Poor housing, poor public services are not the fault of the migrants, they're political failure"
Migration is not the problem.
The two issues that need to be sorted out, but they won't get a mention, are:
Brexit.
Proper taxation of the rich, individuals and Companies.
NEWS: U.S. and China agree to a 90-day pause on new tariffs after shipping to U.S. ports plummeted.
Tariffs on Chinese imports will be cut from 145% to 30%. Tariffs on U.S. imports will be cut from 125% to 10%.
If tariffs should result in massive job growth and make the U.S. rich, why lower them?
Incredibly depressing day. I've spent my entire life being told by British governments how dreadful immigration is. New Labour did it. The Coalition. The Brexiters. Now Starmer. All of them accusing the ones who came before them of failing to clamp down. The same old vacant mean-spirited bollocks.
