Palestinian, Jewish and Indigenous groups say they will launch constitutional challenge to laws described as 'rushed' https://aje.io/965lyf

Merry Christmas! Here’s the gift you definitely didn’t ask for… the penultimate part of the 25 Worst Columns of 2025 brokenbottleboy.substack.com/p/the-25-wor...

"Joshua's winnings don't even put him in the top 1%. That space is occupied by [list of billionaires], almost all of whom have specialist tax advisors to ensure they pay as little as possible, despite living here, using our roads, street lighting, emergency services... Who are the real parasites?"

The anti-tax lobby is right wing and, whilst I think that the MEN's intent here is more about a clickbaity headline, it's irresponsible to frame it like this.

He isn't "losing" this money. This is called "paying tax like a responsible citizen and not hiding your money offshore" and we need to start recognising and applauding it.

this is an incredible and very touching story but unsure what the BBC felt those weird AI images added to it?

"Judges and prosecutors at the International Criminal Court are trying to live and work under the same U.S. financial and travel restrictions brought against Russian President Vladimir Putin and Osama bin Laden." Putin in turn has also sanctioned one of the ICC judges, who is now doubly sanctioned.

It takes balls of titanium to pull this one, after spending years loudly bragging to journalists about how how your clever wrecking project tanked your party against Boris Johnson and hard Brexit so you could get your clout and status back

In Jerusalem, Germany signs a new multi-billion arms deal with Israel. Merz shakes on it with the fugitive from the International Criminal Court, as the Court's judges and staff are hit with Israeli-inspired sanctions disrupting their everyday lives.

“In Görlitz, locals say the change in factory production from civil to military production has uncomfortable historical echoes. In the 1930s, during the build-up to the second World War, Nazi Germany ordered the plant to manufacture armoured personnel carriers.” www.irishtimes.com/world/europe...

Israel admitted it bombed a wedding in Gaza and killed 7 but nobody in the UK or Australia or anywhere else will clamor to ban the phrase "Israel has a right to defend itself"— again I have to wonder why.

Breaking | Israeli occupation forces open fire directly at Palestinian displacement tents in Al-Mawasi area of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.

Turning Point USA was founded in 2012 by Charlie Kirk and Bill Montgomery Two of their major policy pushes were a more prominent gun culture and zero COVID restrictions Bill Montgomery died to the COVID virus Charlie Kirk died to gun violence

Hmm. What is this rage I feel

Just want to point out that this man was leading the whole Turning Point USA crowd in prayer last week. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crim...

When he comes, he should be arrested for inciting genocide (as declared by the UN). But given the current climate, it is more likely we will be arrested for protesting him.

Albo is going to alienate the entire country to try and appease the people who booed him. And they will never accept him.

My god how quickly we have capitulated. This is a man who was happily photographed signing bombs to be launched on Gaza. Pandering to this man does not help Australia’s Jewish community one bit.

Another double act

A double act.

"City of London Police said a 22-year-old woman has been arrested for displaying a placard in support of proscribed organisation, Palestine Action, contrary to Section 13 of the Terrorism Act 2000." Her sign reads: I support Palestine Action prisoners I oppose genocide

Swedish activist Greta Thunberg was arrested by UK police under the Terrorism Act at the Prisoners for Palestine lock-on protest outside the offices of Aspen Insurance in London, which insures the Israeli weapons firm Elbit Systems.

My favorite Christmas thing of all time are the cats who take one look at the holiest scene in Christendom and say "That baby's in my spot."

“I don’t need to express my utter disgust for the UK government.” Greta Thunberg condemned Britain’s “criminalization of empathy” at a London protest for hunger-striking prisoners, warning the state is letting political prisoners die and standing on the wrong side of history.

From Sama’a (to avoid deletion): “My house was destroyed in the war, and today I need $500 to rent a place that will protect me and my children from homelessness. This amount means a safe roof and sleeping without fear. Who can help… your support is life for us." 🤍 tinyurl.com/SamaasFamily

the guardian completely rewriting a news story bcos jk rowling threw a hissy on twitter was censorship by oligarchy.

We in the European Union watch as the Union supports Israel unconditionally, defying both EU and international law, as well as its proclaimed values.

NYT journalist Frank Bruni is platforming anti-trans troll Katie Herzog at Duke next month, so I profiled Bruni (even read Bruni's 'Grievance' book). Bruni is very enamored with "gay erasure" conspiracists like Herzog and Andrew Sullivan. www.transgendermap.com/people/frank...

Helping a baby in the Holy Land seems like a good thing to do this season ❤️

Some of you have forgotten that only three years ago you were perfectly capable of writing a text, writing an email, telling a bedtime story to a child, and it should worry you that powerful companies have convinced us we can’t do things we’ve been doing since the dawn of time.

DOJ during Biden's term sat on absolutely damning evidence against Trump and former DOJ officials should be asked to testify re. this decision

The Biden DOJ had a perfectly legal avenue to release this to the public—a response to a FOIA request. They may have even been legally obligated to produce it in response to the FOIA request. And they decided not to, to protect Donald Trump’s reputation? What?

Found the Associated Press article where the existence of this letter was first disclosed two years ago, in response to a FOIA request It's definitely real apnews.com/article/jeff...

As a formerly huge fan of the MCU who fell out of love after Disney showed their asses in supporting Israel- I simply cannot give a shit any longer.

Our movement is building. And in 126 days in May - we're going to elect Greens right across England & Wales. Replacing Labour - and taking the fight to Reform. youtu.be/S5SB2mp0mss?...

Israeli forces on Monday bulldozed agricultural land in the town of Silat al-Harithiya, west of Jenin in the occupied West Bank, Palestinian media reported, quoting local officials. The mayor of Silat al-Harithiya, Samir Zayoud, told local media that Israeli bulldozers began early in the morning,

look at how little effort it takes for someone on the conservative grievance circuit to destroy a life millions of college kids have half assed an assignment at the last minute, you eat the F and move on but the effort to push trans people out of public life will use whatever it can get
