Israel is keeping two hostages who they kidnapped in International Waters 1000km from Israel. Saif Abukeshek, a dual Spanish-Swedish citizen. And Thiago Avila, a Brazilian citizen. Don't let there be silence for this outrageous crime.

The Green Party has complained to the Times' editor about this cartoon which they say pushes antisemitic tropes against Zack Polanski by portraying him with a hooked nose. "Zack faces daily anti-semitism, and in the past six weeks two people have been arrested for anti-semitic actions towards him."

Actor Michael Sheen will star among other famous faces, including EastEnders’ Ross Kemp and The Last Of Us star Bella Ramsey, confirmed for the upcoming series of Celebrity Traitors

After the navy took control of dozens of boats in the fleet heading to Gaza in international waters & after the release of more than 170 activists, a number stated in interviews with Italian media that they were subjected to "severe violence and torture" by the Zionist army soldiers.

Happy #MayDay! Here's a Dior 1957 Lily of the Valley dress. Every May Day, Dior sent a bouquet them to all his workers. He loved the flower and it become one of his emblems. He sewed a little sashe into the hem of all his dresses as they went down the runway. #Fashionhistory #ootd

Not unlike the BBC where a Director General who should never have been there finally went, but leaving behind a raft of saboteurs, lingering in their own stink.

Another disgrace from the Starmer, Labour Together crew. Getting rid of councillors who don’t have the right face, for mates and relatives of the gang . Cronyism. Send Labour packing on 7th May. Vote Green

In case you’re wondering, this is a real post.

ITALY: Over 10,000 people take to the streets of Rome after the interception of 22 boats of the Global Sumud Flotilla and the kidnapping of 170+ activists who were on board.

Another side of the #IranWar people need to remember. Seafarers are stuck on metal boxes, low on supplies, low on information and essentially kept hostage until they can be saved. This is a war of choice and is killing innocent people for no reason other than greed and ego.

After all the outrage at destroying a statue of Jesus by an IDF soldier… IDF destroys a monastery and nun’s school in Lebanon. Up to 14 hours later. Crickets. Where is the outrage from Christians over this? @thetrawl.bsky.social are the only ones seemingly mentioning it. #LebanonWarCrimes

🇬🇧 Since Starmer is planning on banning peaceful protest, maybe he should also take a look at banning these uber-unionist Orange, sectarian hatefests ? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺😎

The Academy has banned AI from ever winning an Oscar. • Only roles “demonstrably performed by humans with their consent” can be nominated for acting Oscars • Screenplays “must be human-authored” to qualify for a nomination

Plaid Cymru remain the clear favourites with bookmakers to win the most seats in next week’s Senedd election, as recent polling suggests a closely fought contest

#Heatwave alert in #India! Hit by a severe late April warm spell, the peninsula has been record-breaking temperatures in some cities. The #Copernicus #Sentinel3 map on Apr. 26 shows Land (not air!) Surface Temperature reaching more than 60°C in multiple areas. #climateemergency

The PCR positivity map is out and things are looking good in much of England. One minor note of caution: I'll explain a way to double-check results for your area further down the thread. The Scottish data has not been updated. The map will update when the data is published. 1/7

Bonus: The Long Goodbye by Aneil Karia and the brilliant Riz Ahmed won the Best Short Film Oscar 2022. Content warning: Far right violence and the far right fantasy that's on the horizon. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lzz5...

Brilliant new short film Vote Gavin Lyle by award winning director Aneil Karia - a skewering of Reform type saddos, very timely. Kind of Alan Partridge meets Nigel Farage, except that Farage is already an extreme Partridge. #DontVoteReform #HopeNotHate #UKPolitics www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMFy...

26 unarmed civilians marching for basic civil rights were shot, 13 shot dead. Many were shot in the back as they tried to flee. Some were picked off by soldiers who waited for them to try to help those already shot. The UK govt lied that the victims were armed www.thenational.scot/news/2607115...

Good grief.

Beltane or Bealtaine was a Celtic/Gaelic festival held on the 1st May to mark the beginning of summer. One of the key parts of the festival (alongside massive bonfires, feasting & making merry with beer 👀) was the exchange of posies to bring good luck. Here's a Beltane posy for you from my garden 🌿

Please share. Young people have to choose to die because society chooses to not help them to live. Shameful

The day has come FENIANS 💚🤍🧡

We need to talk about the shortage of medication and the government needs to take responsibility. NOT dump the problem on your local pharmacy to absorb the costs and abuse.

A new month, a large new fire in Russia's Tuapse.

Absolutely scenes here. Hubbub of anticipation from the street.

Mark Rowley clearly not liking free speech & accountability. #RottenToTheCore

This was such a terrible case of an avoidable death. The parents have done remarkably to turn their grief into a practical scaleable intervention, which depemds for its effectiveness on being known about

In the centre of Oxford for a viva this morning. Nice morning for it.

Can someone explain to me why we shouldn't police incitement to hatred against some groups but we should against others?

Tonight, thousands of Jews and Palestinians came together in Tel Aviv for the People's Peace Summit in an urgent call for justice and peace. Our extremist government will keep choosing death over life and dragging us toward more loss to serve its agenda.

I’m still reeling from this one in GQ last month.

Israel must release Zeteo contributor Alex Colston and the rest of the flotilla activists and crew. This is piracy:

He should be locked up for foreign interference in a British Election.

Then they came for the octogenarian Gmail-using scientists...

The face of someone who’s devoted their life to service, science and space exploration needing to listen to some draft-dodging, out-of-shape bozo brag that he easily could’ve been an astronaut.

"There's a big difference between marble and onyx in price" -- i regret to inform you that Trump is now ranting about his ballroom

There’s nothing new about Reform UK. They’re a party full of ex-Tories – and we know they’ve never done Wales any good. Don’t let them take control of Wales – vote Plaid Cymru to stop them.

Rough day for vexillophiles.

The UK government must ACT NOW and: • Condemn the Israeli Navy’s illegal actions against the Flotilla • Demand the safety and release of all British Citizens involved in this mission • Stop all arms exports to Israel immediately • Do everything in its power to end this ongoing genocide

Simple but hugely impactful Banksy installation in Regent's Street. Make it permanent.

Presumably it has to be permanent now because if it comes down we'll all forget our history and who Banksy is

So, I've got some questions for Nigel Farage, about his £5m gift. Here's one: "You have previously stated that on police advice, you hold no parliamentary surgeries…Given that we now know you have a large private security budget, why are you unable to hold constituency surgeries?" Here's the rest:

Banksy confirms statue of man blinded by flag that appeared in London is by him
