Nigel Farage & Alex Phillips have been awfully quiet about Nathan Gill pleading guilty to eight counts of bribery relating to pro-Russia statements made in European parliament and articles. Just wanted to refresh their memories about how they were all a team through that period.

Israel has continued to deny Palestinian doctor Hussam Abu Safiya legal representation and medical treatment during his detention, an Israeli rights group said, warning of his "alarming" health condition. www.middleeasteye.net/news/palesti...

Phrases we don't say enough: "I don't know." "It depends." "I don't have enough knowledge to form an opinion yet." “I don’t have any expertise in that area.” Modern interaction incentivizes false certainty and having a take on everything.

Tony Blair had Peter Mandelson. Boris Johnson had Dominic Cummings. The power behind Starmer's throne, Morgan McSweeney, may have even bigger skeletons in the closet than his predecessors, as Peter Oborne explains: www.middleeasteye.net/opinion/mcsw...

The Medical Practitioners Tribunal has rejected the application to impose interim restrictions on Dr Rahmeh Aladwan for her allegedly anti-Semitic social media activity. No patients complained about her work & it would not be proportionate to restrict her practice while an investigation is ongoing.

This is MASSIVE!! The Italian navy has dispatched a ship to protect the Freedom Flotilla carrying food and aid, trying to break the siege. The Flotilla was attacked last night, and it has Italian citizens on board. Someone is going to help them.

Please, @theguardian.com, stop writing headlines that give credibility to Trump’s baseless medical misinformation. The way you’re reporting this makes you part of the problem.

At least 8 attacks and 6 explosions have been reported. An unidentified chemical device was poured onto Yulara via a capsule that...

Why did all of us never realise the greatest medical breakthroughs were this easy! Evidence from controlled studies with a sample size of millions falls away in thrall to a ‘feeling’ that it was the mothers’ ‘fault’ all along

Thousands of Londoners have indefinite leave to remain. They have legal rights and are our friends, neighbours and colleagues, contributing hugely to our city. Threatening to deport people living and working here legally is unacceptable.

It is still a global problem. Along with many infection threats to health. We need peace, intelligent informed dialogue, open culture of disagreement not being construed as hate, factual integrity and genuine fairness. These foundations are being eroded at scale and pace. Only the bugs win.

Eternal gratitdue to Keith aka JD Twitch for so so many things, and my heart goes out to all those close to him. There’s so much to say about him but one thing I’ll hope he is remembered for is as a model of wise leadership. He built communities and guided with a sense of “pragmatic anarchism”.

“Fascism is a temper tantrum disguised as an ideology” Like cruelty, hypocrisy is the point. Don’t look for logic, the only logic is domination. Their placards not yours. Their genocide not your peace movement

Exercise is great for keeping you humble as you age. Coming to terms with the fact you may never run as fast can be a blessing. It can shift your motivation away from achievements, and towards the intrinsic joy of running.

“This denazification process must begin now, and it starts with refusal. Refusal not only to take an active part in Gaza’s destruction, but to put on the uniform at all — regardless of rank or role. Refusal to remain ignorant. Refusal to be blind. Refusal to be silent.“ - Orly Noy, Israeli
