🚨 International Women's Day Rally - Stand with Palestinian Women
⏰ 6 March, 6PM
📍 Downing Street, London
Join us for our International Women's Day rally to stand with Palestinian women who are at the forefront of their people’s struggle for freedom. They need our solidarity more than ever.
The cruelty is the point. The government isn't just engaged in a desperate grasping at unwinnable Reform votes. They actively despise refugees and regard making their lives harder as desirable in itself. I find it hard to see another explanation at this point.

Senate Democrats are open to giving Trump more money for Iran war.

“Almost all the 165 people killed in the attack were girls aged between seven and 12, according to local officials. There were around 170 girls at the school in southern Iran’s Minab at the time.“
A double-tap strike on little girls at school.
The US and Israel killed 180 people in a primary school in Iran.
This was a 'double-tap' bombing - where the US/Israel struck the school a second time as the children were sheltering in the school gym.
This is the war that Starmer is fully supporting and sending weapons for.
Horrified by the death of our Massachusetts neighbor Emmanuel Damas in ICE custody. He was denied medical care for months.
I’m sending his family my deepest condolences. A family who has been robbed of their brother & son.
Emmanuel is at least the tenth person to die in ICE custody this year.
The same technological pinpoint accuracy that was used to slaughter children in Gaza now being used to slaughter children in Iran.

For a president who ran for office promising to keep the United States out of wars, Trump has already launched attacks during his second term in:
Ecuador
Iran
Iraq
Nigeria
Somalia
Syria
Venezuela
Yemen
and on civilians in boats in the Caribbean Sea and Pacific Ocean.
A little reported fact is that the Iranian frigate destroyed 2000 miles from the combat zone was carrying ZERO AMMUNITION (a condition of the exercise it was invited to participate in).
The ship was, by any definition, defenceless.
Much like the 80+ sailors left to drown.
Infamy.
The precedent is eerily, chillingly precise. What the current Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood is doing to immigrants and refugees today is almost a carbon copy of what Sir William Joynson-Hicks was doing 100 years ago. And that's not a good thing. My column.

NHS official pushed to add patient data to Palantir platform whilst also advising company
A lobbyist who worked directly for Peter Mandelson, on the Palantir board, and on the board of *four* NHS trusts.
Lobbying the NHS to hand over even more patient data to Palantir.
This absolutely stinks. Get Palantir out of the NHS. Sign my petition:

Labour's asylum proposals are cruel and racist, and based on lies. Calling these "Labour values" is grotesque. If Labour goes down thus route, it deserves to be obliterated at the next election.

Children are generally considered off-limits in politics, even if in practice they aren't. But in the war on immigrants, the administration and the larger GOP apparatus have placed kids squarely in the line of fire. theintercept.com/2025/10/19/c...

They are emptying the land of its population, creating a massive crisis, and will now proceed to further annihilate large parts of Lebanon.
The very nation state of Lebanon is being destroyed.
