"Hundreds of thousands of displaced Palestinians in Gaza have suffered another wet miserable night in makeshift shelters and there's worse to come.. Israel is still severely restricting humanitarian aid, including shelters, in breach of the ceasefire it agreed to 2 months ago"

Solidarity with the hunger strikers. It is an egregious violation for them to be held on remand - without trial or conviction. All for protesting against a genocide. Shameful.

Horrific

Time works in spirals & what is not learnt/changed repeats in different guises. If we don’t dismantle empire-think & listen to distinct cultures/wisdoms, humans are doomed to repeat horrific inhumanities like Gaza & elect monsters like Trump, Farage, Ortega etc. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Contrary to what some claim, many British people do care about Nigel's Dulwich School days. The only group shrugging it off are the Reform/Nigel Farage die-hards, and that’s because they behave like a cult. But that’s all there is, Reform has already reached its polling ceiling.

Excuse me!!?? Promote the reduction of all our human rights to appease fascists!!?? We all know where this has led before. Stop appeasement and stand firm!! www.theguardian.com/law/2025/dec...

Huge £9m donation to #Farage #ReformUK risks further undermining trust in all British political parties, says letter in The Journal. Voters are urged to keep signing - and sharing - a petition calling for an inquiry into Russian interference in UK politics. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/744215

Ofcom is reviewing how one major platform is dealing with hate crime - including antisemitism and anti-Muslim prejudice. It does not want to publicly say which platform. It is opaque as to whether all forms of racism have similar or assymetric levels of priority www.politicshome.com/news/article...

Today House of Commons will debate Railways Bill Great that franchises are coming into public ownership but we also need 🚄 Publicly owned rolling stock (trains) 🚄 An end to competition + private profit 🚄 Accountable passenger watchdog 🚄 Lower fares, new lines, investment!

WHEN THE HELL ARE THEY GOING TO RELEASE THE COMPLETE, GODDAMN EPSTEIN FILES????? 🤨

Is anyone asking for the Epstein files anymore? That’s what I thought.

The government's climbdown on day one rights against unfair dismissal was sold to us as a way out of the impasse on the Employment Rights Bill. Pragmatism, eh? Well guess what? The business lobby (via the Lords) isn’t giving up & is pushing for more concessions. Funny that. 🤔

www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... Thanks for going to the trouble of explaining all this @stellacreasy.bsky.social I can’t forgive Brexit, those who facilitated it or those who voted for it. However, this does shine a light on a way forward. I/ppl I still talk to, hope the PM listens to you.

In the last year, Israel averaged nearly two daily attacks on Syria and grabbed more land in the occupied Golan Heights.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

@vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu @eucopresident.consilium.europa.eu @president.europarl.europa.eu @kajakallas.bsky.social European Union's "good ally" #Israel has killed at least 110 Palestinian political prisoners in three years. Some directly, some slowly by indirect means. EU couldn't care less.

Good. War criminal is shunned. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The U.S. is mirroring a pattern that has happened in authoritarian regimes around the world. When a government erects barriers to reproductive care, it doesn’t just cause death and suffering for women and their families. Such policies are often a first step in the gradual decline of democracies.

OK team, time for a reminder that if you want to change the Government, financially supporting your chosen opposition party is vital. We've seen how much National is spending on ads - set up an automatic monthly donation you can afford to Labour/Greens to boost their fighting funds #nzpol

The Epstein Files STILL have not been released. If he wasn’t in them. He’d have released them.

Disgusting and should be investigated as hate crimes. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Israeli settlers on Saturday attacked Palestinian-owned land in Mekhmas, northeast of occupied Jerusalem, and targeted Bedouin shepherds near Khan al-Ahmar to the east

Dislike the sound of plans for a digital ID roll-out? There are good reasons!! Immigrants in the UK are already subject to a digital ID system & it's been a mess since day one. Very important report here from brilliant Migrant Voice with @openrightsgroup.org explains the key issues 🤓👇

Playing the "Good/bad migrant line helps spread further division and racism. As @migrantvoice.bsky.social points out in this piece "People do not check what job someone has, or how they arrived, before attacking them". Labour knows this and just carries on. www.migrantvoice.org/home/editori...
