I need you to understand what this country feels like right now for those of us who look different. I'm sitting here, trying to plan for Saturday, make sure I don't even need to go to the corner shop for milk, like it's Christmas Day or lockdown. Why? Because I live near where Yaxley-Lennon will 1/

Dear

tens, maybe a couple of hundred thousand, marched completely peacefully as far as I saw against the bombing, starving and endless killing in Palestine. Not news enough?

The Cameron-Osborne years offer an important reminder that it is possible to excel at the theatre of politics - to "look prime ministerial", to dominate the "media narrative", to project "competence" and to communicate a clear political "story" - while being strikingly inept at governing.

Here's a fact for you all. Prior to 2017 there was not a single documented case of any individual travelling by small boats across the English Channel to caim asylum in the UK. Not ONE. This current 'boats' crisis has been largely caused by Brexit. But for some reason NOBODY is saying that.

All famines are man-made, all famines are political. Historians of empire and humanitarianism have known this forever. Gaza is not starving, Gaza is being starved, by Israel, and this starvation is enabled by our government and by every other government that does not step in to force food and aid.

Hi
@florenceeshalomi.bsky.social
as a Camberwell resident please can you tell me how many more civilians have to die in Palestine before the govt will condemn what’s going on and take action to stop it?

Personally, I'd reserve overheated rhetoric like "national shame" for our (and the international community's) failure to take action to halt systematic war crimes and the deliberate murder of starving civilians, not what some rappers said at a music festival.

Something to fill in a ‘few’ gaps in my architectural education. It fell open at this, which is just over the hill from here, so I think we will get on just fine. Thanks for the tip
