For every dollar spent on protecting nature, $30 funds its destruction. Humankind is on a path to destruction and it's hard to argue that we, as a species, don't deserve it. As David Attenborough once said, the best thing to happen to planet Earth will be the disappearance of humankind.

IF U HAVE EVER WONDERED WHAT YOU’D DO DURING SLAVERY, THE HOLOCAUST OR CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT YOU’RE DOING IT RIGHT NOW! Did u know that Anne Frank was born🇩🇪citizen in Frankfurt in 1929—but she became stateless in 1941... Just coz you're a citizen now does not mean you're safe in a fascist country.

Feels like something cracked today in the transatlantic alliance. Europeans have been swallowing their pride, bitting their tongues, and bending the knee. That strategy may have bought them time but it has now clearly failed. It also had a major cost - it has made the WH think Europe will cave. 1/

Who’s going to enforce it? Because until authorities are brave enough to enforce this ruling, we’re going to keep seeing this abuse. This is who they are when the cameras are on. Imagine who they are when they think no one’s watching.

This is absolutely pathetic. She is still hanging on to the notion that Trump will reward her for being servile and submissive. This sycophantic gesture will make no difference whatsoever. The fact that she thinks so makes me inclined to believe Donald Trump when he says she is not up to the job.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Israel created and is creating conditions of life in Gaza calculated to destroy Palestinians as a group. www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

Corbyn, afundamentally decent man, scandalously treated by British right-wing media. But he would have been a disastrous PM. This new left-wing party, a left answer to REFORM, has been an unmitigated disaster from the start. It’s the Judean People’s Front. Pathetic. observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

This proposed name change of Herzog Park in Dublin is unnecessary, deliberately provocative, anti-semitic and counterproductive to reasonable people who criticize Israel's genocide while remaining respectful of Jewish people in general. It should be rejected. www.irishtimes.com/ireland/dubl...

Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

This is an extraordinary piece of film making. The Pentagon and White House are mighty pissed off about it. It's up there with Fail Safe for dramatic tension. Brilliant stuff from Katherine Bigelow.

These people would make you sick. Speech after sycophantic speech praising a man who has forced Netanyahu to a tenuous peace deal for one reason only: so he can win a Nobel Peace Prize. Meanwhile the Conquest and killing in the west bank continues at pace and the future of Gaza is still in peril.

If an Israeli tourist behaves this way toward UNICEF volunteers in Milan, imagine how a settler stealing homes and land in the West Bank or a soldier murdering children in Gaza acts knowing they can get away with it. Or an entire powerful state like Israel, with its well-oiled genocidal machinery.

Miriam Margolyes denounces Israel’s treatment of Palestinians, sharing she has lost friends and family members over her outspoken views.

CNN says Minneapolis is the 44th school shooting in America so far this year …

The entire British Media handed itself to Nigel Farage and his one issue party yesterday. From morning til night wall to wall Farage and Reform. I cannot think of a similar event in media history. This wasn't 9/11. This was a political circus. One of the saddest days in British media history.

Emmeline Pankhurst, founder of the women's social and political union in 1903. Named by Time Magazine in 1999 as one of the 100 most influential people of the century. A lawbreaker in support of a political cause. A terrorist in the eyes of the 2025 Labour Party.

"Breaking the law to achieve a political goal is terrorism." British Home Secretary, Yvette Cooper. Behold Britain's most famous terrorist. Emmeline Pankhurst, suffrage founder. A lawbreaker in pursuit of a political cause:votes for women. A terrorist in the eyes of the 2025 Labour Party.

Benjamin Netanyahu pouring out the lies, the misinformation, and the victimhood as we speak. This man deserves to be in The Hague and deserves to spend the rest of his life in prison for his war crimes. Https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog-august-10-2025/

On Gaza.... "From what I see a lot of these people need to lose some weight anyway. You have obese mothers with supposedly hungry children. Seems to me they are eating their children's food." Shimon Riklin Israeli journalist And one of God's chosen people. www.instagram.com/reel/DMqU2sc...

What the hell kind of horror Story is this? Whatever about EU Israel trade agreement generally, the idea of an Israeli Arms from getting an EU Grant? The story is not whether they could lose the Grant it's why they even qualified for a grant! And why it was awarded. Ursula has a lot to answer for.

Best response Grok has ever given.

The most predictable relationship breakdown since Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn. And the fallout is almost as severe. Just shows you, fall foul of a dictator, it's "off with your head". And NO second chances. This is why the GOP is so disgustingly servile. They haven't a backbone between them.

Nothing impresses more than the current European leadership's inexhaustible capacity to humiliate themselves so as to retain the right to be Trump's vassal... www.ft.com/content/ce9e...

If you would prefer them to ban selling arms to Israel and providing air support to them. RT

Miko Peled: Are we out of our minds? Condemning the resistance of the people who are being oppressed and killed? Subjected to genocide for 75 years! Are we out of our minds? His grandfather signed Israel’s Declaration of Independence

This must be true, I cannot believe that the majority of British people would support this move. Is the UK really going to allow itself to be dragged into this totally unnecessary conflict? If Israel wants to imperil the region, let it take the consequences.

This is so nasty. And yet, somehow, entirely plausible.

Every good person in America has all the evidence they could ever need that Donald Trump poses a clear and present danger to our democracy and must be legally and peacefully removed from power using the processes we already have for doing so. At this point, those who object are simply bad people.

Note: It is more likely Netanyahu attacked Iran now because he feared another nuclear deal would be reached than for any reason having to do with recent advancements in Iran's nuclear program.

Back in beautiful Strasburg. Tart flambe in Maison Kammerzell, the old city, Petite France, and Hospices Wine Cellars. Glorious.

I think a lot about this quote from Anaïs Nin’s diary from 1939-1944: “America is in even greater danger because of its cult of toughness, its hatred of sensitivity, and someday it may have to pay a price for this, because atrophy of feeling creates criminals”.

George Monbiot hits the nail on the head once again. Kier Starmer may not be the worst British PM of all time. We cannot forget Truss or Johnson. But he is certainly the worst Labour PM. And he more than anyone will be responsible for Labour's descent into political oblivion in four years time.

No one who cares about wildlife and ecosystems is now likely to vote Labour in 2029. Or about Gaza. Or poverty. Or inequality. Or international aid. Or corporate power. Or democratic reform. Or racism. Or trans rights. So that's goodbye to just about its entire vote. What are they playing at?

An anti-Hamas and anti-Israel protest in Gaza. Women and children are calling for an end to the war, Hamas rule, and Israeli crimes. Since the October 7 2023 Hamas terrorist attack more than 50,000 people have been killed by Israel's genocide campaign. Protestors: "Long live the women of Gaza" #3E

There is no bar too low for Donald Trump.

It is astonishing that Ireland has not progressed beyond Catholic only education at primary level in 2025. Ireland is a multicultural Secular Society and continued control of the Catholic Church of primary education is ridiculous. Even the teachers believe this is the case. Diversement now!
