Dear Shabana, Let's clear some things up around migration and remember we're talking about people's lives.

Final weekend. One last push. This is about whether you want local plumber Hannah Spencer or the extreme Reform candidate. It's hope vs hate. It's Greens vs Reform. Hope can win.

Never mind the Mandelson debacle, the new rules for child refugees are a far bigger disgrace for Labour. Inhumane

“We didn’t do all that because we are heroes and saviors. We did it because we understand the meaning of our faith: that we are all connected. We join together. We are a part of a people, a body of humanity that is made in the image of a loving and beautiful God that wants all God’s children free.”

“Frozen by the cold 🥶💔 Frozen by the cold 🥶💔 Winter storms hit our camp 🌧️💔 My kids are freezing,no dry beds 🥶 Zero jobs. Zero funds. Aid is no longer reaching us 💔 Desperately seeking$200 for shelte🙏 Your mercy might save my family 💔 Verified” gofund.me/5f2429cda

Cogent analysis of an ill-planned invasion with comparisons to the US invasion of Iraq and Russian invasion of Ukraine....

Spray paint a plane and they'll detain you without trial and call you a terrorist. Kidnap a foreign head of state - and Keir Starmer will make it clear we've played no part in it but will wait for the scheduled press conference in a few hours before potentially condemning it

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Nagham. Nagham is a journalist (if you click on her chuffed you can find links to some of her stories at the bottom), a very dangerous profession in Gaza. She has three children Amir, 9, Amjad, 7 and Ayla, 3. She also has an injury to her leg

If you can help with blankets ❤️

I felt I had to write something about Gaza, so I wrote about Poetry and Gaza. In a way, the topic seems ridiculous. How can poetry help Gaza? But a lot of poets have spoken and their word are interesting and impressive. www.culturematters.org.uk/hearing-from...

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Shadia. Shadia and her husband lived on a farm and grew their own crops prior to this. The farm and their home have been destroyed. Shadia is 72 years old and has both cancer and diabetes. She is trying to find her insulin and health needs.

I usually share a new Palestinian account every day but today I am going to do a thread of people I’ve already verified impacted by the recent flooding in Gaza. If you can help any of these families- many who lost everything again- please do. edition.cnn.com/2025/11/14/m...

Maybe Nigel Farage should refuse to appear on the BBC in protest.

Gaza’s destruction reveals urgent need for safe, unrestricted aid. Homes, culture, lives lost. These are the most recent satellite images from Google Earth. Clean water, food, shelter, and fuel are desperately needed. Donate now: bit.ly/48F6I8G

Echoing colleagues: Think before you (re)post. #Melissa is about to impact a relatively poor part of Jamaica. I doubt we will know the true extent of the devastation for days or weeks. Information vacuums fill with disinformation. Expect a lot of “breaking wind” on SM. Map source: World Bank

There's probably a lot of competition for this sad title, but here's more evidence that Israel's campaign in Gaza has been the most destructive in human history. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Eslam. It’s Eslam’s 34th birthday today. She worked in a hair salon before this started. Her husband had immigrated and since the war she has lost contact with him and is on her own with her three children Islam, 8, Yahya, 5 and Mohammed, 4.

Mohammed (Malmo) hasn’t reached out to me in a long time but his account was deleted and his family needs help.

Please help Ruaa and her family. Share her post, share her link, donate if you can. chuffed.org/project/help...

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Mohammed. Mohammed is 25 years old and had recently completed his studies in mechanotronics engineering. He lost his home and work and is struggling to survive in tents with his three small children Zakaria, 4, Mohammed, 3 and Elias, 1.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Kamal. Kamal has helped so many people I know in Gaza but never asked for my help before. He had a few careers before this including a tailor and a solar power tech. He’s helping his siblings including Aliaa, 25, Yasmin, 15 and Mohammad, 12.

Your soaring bills are much higher than elsewhere in Europe because of - privatisation - greedy millionaires Nigel Farage wants MORE privatisation Nigel Farage IS a greed millionaire (the greediest in Parliament) Reform polices are guaranteed to make you poorer #BlameMillionairesNotMigrants

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Hanan. Before this Hanan was a homemaker and her husband drove a taxi. Hanan asked me if I liked Bayern Munich- because they liked to watch soccer. They’re trying to keep their children Jihad, 16, Rima, 14, Abed, 11 and Sama, 8 alive.

Due to the expulsion from Gaza City there are a lot of new accounts from Gaza on here so feel free to send them this guide if you see them ❤️

Absolutely abhorrent how Bluesky treats people from Gaza. Help Reem if you can

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Saleh. Before this he was a taxi driver but he also was being treated for a severe back injury. He’s been unable to continue this treatment and is trying to take care of his family including Hamdi, 10, Enaya, 9, Laila, 6, Elham, 5 and Ahmed, 1

Spectacular article, all the major insights captured, but an early one here into how sincerely these men care about protecting our women and girls.

Migrants are not the problem – this is just another distraction The current situation is largely the creation of successive governments, argues Nadine Finch. The growth of activity by and support for the far right is at a level that has not been witnessed in Britain since the 1970s and 1980s. Its…

Saeb sent me many photos of him and his cat Simba

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Suad. Suad had recently graduated with a degree in accounting from Al-Asqa University before this. Her husband and her have been displaced the entire war and have two small children Yaqueen, 3.5 and her newborn son who is just 3 months old.

Ahmed has many unique photos and videos, social media in Gaza that predates the war and is friends with @ssaakkhheerr2.bsky.social whom I’ve shared before. Ahmed is under an evacuation order and is hoping to have enough money for a tent for his family as well as get medical care.
