Gaza death toll in early part of war far higher than reported, says Lancet study
Research suggests more than 75,000 killed in the first 16 months of conflict, 25,000 more than announced at the time More than 75,000 people were killed in the first 16 months of the two-year war in Gaza, at least 25,000 more than the death toll announced by local authorities at the time, according to a study published on Wednesday in the Lancet medical journal. The research also found that reporting by the Gaza health ministry about the proportion of women, children and elderly people among those killed was accurate. Continue reading...

New petition: Review the digitisation of UK telephone lines
Copper land lines, while ‘old technology’, provide resilience and mitigation for poor cellphone signal in many rural areas, and work during power cuts. We think digital rollout is a national strategic risk and should be subject to a review.

I was a Labour Party member almost all my life. I am not now. There are 2 things Starmer needs to do for me to rejoin: 1. A clear stand and more sanctions against Israel. 2. A change of direction and a firm commitment to no airport expansion. Oh and GET OFF TWITTER!

I am also in the same cult. However, I believe it is an evidence-based cult. Starmer is managing home and foreign policies equally well. Manifesto pledges are now enacted, NHS, Education, Infrastructure, Energy, etc. The ability to deliver actions is what I look for and his Cabinet is delivering.
