Death to the Labour Party
In the 115 years since it was formed, it has rendered Britain signal service, but now the dignified thing would be to call it a day

Don't let all the news distract you from the ongoing starvation and killing of Palestinians in Gaza.

The Israeli govt is deliberately trying to prevent news getting out . It dismisses what news there is as Hamas propaganda while refusing to let international journalists in. An information war too.
