I want to honour those who are standing up to say compassion is stronger than division. They are correct and I am so grateful they have been taking this stance.

This is representative of the public’s mood today. It is likely to send support for Labour spiralling down in the elections in Scotland next year. Unless KS has a rabbit to pull out of the political hat. In your dreams comes to mind …
My conference pass was revoked for asking difficult questions: this is Keir Starmer’s Labour | Owen Jones

It makes you think. Food is “medicine” and therefore matters a lot. So Devi suggests that more yoghurt and less ultra processed foods is a worthy course of action.

We need to be under no illusion that there’s anything for ordinary people in the interventions of Trump, Musk or Farage. They are in it to grab POWER. They will change things but not in the interests of working people or pensioners. Once let them in -end of story

Tesla’s boss has already done his best to destabilise the US, Canada and Germany. Keir Starmer needs to push back, says Guardian columnist Arwa Mahdawi

Jonathan Liew is right to address what is the endgame. His analysis is perceptive. He hasn’t pointed out that so called remigration is a delusion. We must prepare to accept refugees as the flow will grow as things become increasingly dire elsewhere. Invest now.
What is the endgame in this toxic immigration debate: is it friends and neighbours thrown out of the country? | Jonthan Liew
The notion of remigration was abstract, but the right is dragging it towards respectability. If the goal is homogeneous whiteness, they should say it, says Guardian columnist Jonathan Liew

Thinking about the St George’s flags springing up in England I’m beginning to wonder what this looks like to those of us in other parts of the United Kingdom. Is England declaring independence? If the Union Flag is no longer needed then perhaps Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland will be set free!

Good advice for Sir Keir! It’s just a pity it’s from one of the old guys. Are the young guys more interested in climbing the ladder than making a difference? If so Go Greens Go Go Go!

Once again Nesrine Malik gets it bang on!
The right wing extremists like Farage, Trice and many sympathisers in the Tory party and its supporters will never be appeased by measures to cut immigration. We mustn’t play to their agenda. Think differently!
Vote Brexit, stop the boats – the goalposts on immigration keep moving, and those who oppose it will never be appeased | Nesrine Malik
The facts and the numbers are irrelevant: Donald Trump and Nigel Farage just find new excuses and increase the toxicity, says Guardian columnist Nesrine Malik

Let’s put an end to this and press our MPs to support recognising Palestine. That’s the first step. Creating huge pressure on the Israeli PM to make peace and let food aid in. Then the real work could start.
