CNN Finds Israel Killed Palestinian Aid Seekers and Bulldozed Bodies into Shallow, Unmarked Graves

The Bank of England has issued a stark new Financial Stability Report — and beneath the cautious language lies a clear message: the global risk environment has deteriorated sharply. A systemic crisis now looks more like “when” than “if”. youtu.be/NMDdkEZhNbI?...

Summing up the UK govt's budget: Inequalities, profiteering, regressive taxation and neutering of public investment do not provide firm foundations for the economy. We need a Budget for the masses, not just for the super-rich, bond markets and corporations.. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JULf...

If the line gets any steeper it’s gonna start going backwards in time.

The UK government is intensely relaxed about the ongoing imprisonment of Imran Khan by Pakistan, its military ally. By contrast, the UK issued numerous media releases demanding the release of Alexei Navalny in Russia. #DCUKparliament

And this week's episode of @boldpolitics.bsky.social is with @femi-oluwole.bsky.social Loved this conversation and welcome to the party, Femi! youtu.be/UTmCzWMalWA?...

The Ministry of Defence has enough public money to fund “an additional 26 PhD students” to work on Britain’s nuclear weapons programme. #DCUKparliament

💡 Social security isn’t a burden — it’s an investment. Ensuring children are clothed, housed, fed, and ready for school isn’t just a moral necessity — it pays for itself in the long run. 🎙️ Our ED, @faizashaheen.bsky.social makes it clear on Good Morning Britain.

My Q&A with this weekends Guardian! 👇🏼 www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

The RSF accused Sudan's army of the attack on a vital corridor for aid and Sudanese fleeing the war.

“Gaza now hosts the largest group of child amputees in modern history.” UNRWA chief Philippe Lazzarini says nearly 42,000 Palestinians in Gaza have suffered life-changing wounds in Israel’s war – and almost one-quarter of those are children. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/7eexx4

❌ Deep Sea Mining tests impact over a third of seabed animals. Machines mining minerals in the deep ocean have been found to cause significant damage to life on the seabed, scientists carrying out the largest study of its kind say. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... #deepseamining

Two weeks ago, we reported how the Countryside Alliance desperately tried to cut ties with the Coniston Foxhounds after Lake District Hunt Sabs filmed them digging out and killing a fox. Read how they reacted to breaking news that a second hunt were involved www.huntsabs.org.uk/too-little-t...

60% of the British public agree: our voting system is not fit for purpose. The upcoming Elections Bill is a chance to fix it. I just signed a @makevotesmatter.bsky.social petition to the Democracy Minister, calling for Proportional Representation. Add your name: actionnetwork.org/petitions/pe...

Baroness Sheehan, Chair of the Environment + Climate Change Committee has written to the EA expressing concern that the Agency had not shared information about some illegal landfill sites which the Committee learned of via reports in the press. 🧵 1/3 cdn.roxhillmedia.com/production/e...

No child deserves to go hungry. Full stop. But you should know despite all the headlines ⚠️ 70% of cash from scrapping the two‑child limit will go to kids with at least 1 parent in work. 💰 We can afford to lift kids out of poverty if we just tax the super‑rich. 🎙️ @faizashaheen.bsky.social on GMB.

Loved chatting to NPR about the Left and our Green Party plans to lower bills and tax billionaires. www.npr.org/2025/11/22/n...

My first long interview after prison — talking not just about ‘the climate’ but how we actually win. Mass mobilisation, repression, class, love, strategy. We’re out of time to keep getting this wrong. www.youtube.com/watch?v=UC2V...

‘Stressed’ trees share resources to overcome environmental challenges It’s less about ‘survival of the fittest’ and more about the mutual gains of existing in a network. Not something nature hater Trump would ever understand envirotecmagazine.com/2021/05/07/s...

Charlotte Hawkins: "4.5m children living in poverty right now in our country.. that shouldn't be happening" @adilray.bsky.social : "Its the very basics of society.. you'd have thought that's got to be the number one aim.. to make sure everyone can get fed & have the very basics in life" #GMB

Yesterday the organisers of Eurovision prevented a vote on whether Israel should be excluded. Four countries then announced that as Israel would be included they'd boycott the event - Ireland, Slovenia, The Netherlands and Spain. Boycott Israel. Back BDS #GMB

Sudan Doctors Network says 'deliberate suicide-drone attacks' targeted a kindergarten and several civilian facilities.

There are thousands of trained doctors in the UK right now — unemployed. Not because they’re unnecessary, but because the government refuses to fund the NHS roles we desperately need. If we have the doctors, we can fund the doctors. So why won’t they? youtu.be/jN42hYQsehU?...

I joined the Green Party, because if Zack Polanski isn't our next Prime Minister... I'll probably be dead within 10 years.

I felt compelled to write this piece yesterday. There are few things that make me angrier than patients being blamed for problems in the NHS: jujuliagrace.substack.com

"Israel has not been held accountable.. there are war crimes in Gaza.. if Netanyahu & other[s].. are never going to be held accountable this will just continue. Isn't the argument, at least in Russia's case there are serious sanctions.." @adilray.bsky.social on Israel & Eurovision #GMB

@adilray.bsky.social : "A lot of people think.. taking the right moral position when we can see children dying is the right thing to do" Flint: if you start taking a moral position on everything you'd have to look at every country How about we start with the genocidal apartheid regimes?

@adilray.bsky.social asks, is it right that people who benefit from the govt and public contracts donate huge amounts of money to politicians? No its not. In other countries we happily call it corruption #GMB

@faizashaheen.bsky.social on #GMB: its not the fault of kids they are growing up in poverty, & lifting them out of poverty means they'll have better outcomes in life. Faiza goes on to argue the govt should be taxing the super rich more & making childcare & baby formula cheaper for everyone

Human cost of the Post Office scandal. Sub-postmaster passed away from a heart attack at the age of 58 without receiving full compensation. A "constant cycle of stress" created by false prosecutions of many. Lives destroyed. No one charged.
