The BBC always emphasise Israeli government's denial of killing journalists - particularly galling, having witnessed BBC representatives attempting to water down statements calling for killing of journalists in Gaza to stop.
UN say 248 journalists killed in Gaza.

Absolutely disgusted listening to Stephen Jardine on BBC Scotland trot out BBC twosidisms, ending every allegation of #Genocide in Gaza with 'Israel denies it has committed Genocide" and 'the UK Government does not call it Genocide' ignoring that UK is legally required to act in case of Genocide.

This morning I have written to the Cabinet Secretary for Justice @angelaconstance.bsky.social MSP to register our concern over plans by the Home Secretary to provide new protest policing powers to police forces in England and Wales and to ascertain if the CabSec intends to mirror this in Scots law.

In support of their opposition, Defendants also rely on occurrences of violence elsewhere in the country and the risk that peaceful protests in Portland might escalate into violence βat any moment.β Resp., ECF 35 at 13. But violence in a different state and the mere potential for future escalation do not provide a colorable basis to invoke Section 12406(3). To accept Defendantsβ arguments would be to render meaningless the extraordinary requirements of 10 U.S.C. Β§ 12406 by allowing the President to federalize one stateβs National Guard based on events in a different state or mere speculation about future events. In other words, violence elsewhere cannot support troop deployments here, and concern about hypothetical future conduct does not demonstrate a present inability to execute the laws using nonmilitary federal law enforcement.

NEW: Judge Immergut BLOCKS Trump's federalization of the Oregon National Guard, writing that the govt has "made a range of arguments that, if accepted, risk blurring the line between civil and military federal powerβto the detriment of this nation." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The interaction illustrates how federal law enforcement officers do use aggressive tactics against protesters who yell and needle officers but donβt appear to present clear physical threats.
Gyles Brandreth's daughter said, among other things, that the Chinese "don't care about reducing greenhouse gas emissions". In fact Xi Jinping is committed to cutting China's greenhouse gas emissions by 7-10% by 2035. 10% equates to 1.4bn tonnes a year, four times the UK's total annual emissions.
