Before I became an American, I was Lebanese. Parts of my family live in Lebanon. Anyway, you don't need those bona fides to feel this way, but what is happening in Lebanon right now is a complete outrage. The people there, who mostly are just trying to carve out a living, don't deserve this.

The Green Heat Network Fund (GHNF) - which already supports heat networks in England - is today (Tuesday 7 April) being expanded to fund projects in Wales, giving Welsh consumers the opportunity to access clean, homegrown energy, thereby reducing reliance on costly fossil fuels.

This is a point which could become a lot more pertinent for Downing Street in the next day or so.

It’s just mad how much money there is sloshing around on the right.

"The most practical resilience resource is an unconditional basic income (UBI) floor. Not a maze of conditional programs, not a temporary patch, not something you get only after proving you are sufficiently desperate. A floor that is there before people fall."

Do not forget the many courageous #Israelis who oppose the fascist militants in their government. They know l that there is an existential struggle for their country: Israel is being destroyed from within.

Living arguments as to why there shouldn’t be a united Ireland. Why should the Republic of Ireland have to take in these citizens of nowhere. Loyalists be damned.

The main beneficiaries of the rise of the Greens, oddly could be the Lib Dems Here's why. Green strategy is contagion from the left (like Reform's is on the right- no I'm not saying they are the same as Reform. That's silly.) It has a similar political contour to Corbynism *but*....

Excellent analysis of NATO's problems. Tl;dr: Trump is the immediate problem, but his leaving office won't end the problems. Europe needs to plan its defence on the basis that US help will be welcome, but not guaranteed. I'd add: which makes integrating Ukraine into European defence asap vital.

“It’s time for the Labour government to stand for truth: Israel is an apartheid state ... conducting a genocide in Gaza. Just like apartheid South Africa, it must be treated as a pariah state until the genocide is stopped, apartheid is ended, and Palestinians are granted the same rights as Israelis”

Zach. I hate to break it to you but Labour are already taxing the rich to pay for schools, the NHS and other services. All of which are slowly improving. It’s hard slog and they’re doing well. See new taxes they’ve already introduced. ⬇️
