WE CONTINUE. It would be so easy to slow down, but we’re needed more than ever 🚨

These six families will remain in emergency—in need a LOT of extra help in the coming weeks for food, supplies, transport, more.

So we stay bold, RIGHT? 24 hours left ⚠️ 0/640: chuffed.org/project/hope...

A square white graphic. On the left is a stylized ink illustration of a kestrel falcon in black on white, without outline just the black marks on its wings and face, drawn from behind. His wings are partly open and his head is turned to the right. In his beak is an anemone poppy in red ink with a green stem. On the right is the title "Keep hope alive: a gaza giving circle" in ink-effect font. The text says "We are a team of volunteers in the US and UK helping our friends on the ground keep their families and neighbors alive with food, water, & shelter. We distribute your contributions equally every week for sustainable support." In the bottom right corner in green text is the link https://tinyurl.com/HopeGivingCircle.

The citizens' assemblies on climate action and biodiversity loss gave government overwhelming undivided feedback from the public on what kinds of action they would like taken on both emergencies. They understood the benefits of taking action.

Our political leadership prefer the status quo...

‘“Wanker” or not – a term that sounds over-familiar and informal given the context – Glasman’s willingness to engage with Yarvin around their shared interest in AI is indicative of how those with race science beliefs are being normalised, unwittingly or not, in elite company.’

Peter Jukes @peterjukes.bsky.social · 14d

Lord Glasman "sought out, and was sought after, by some of the most important Trumpworld movers and shakers" JD Vance, Steve Bannon... Curtis Yarvin and "as @bylinetimes.bsky.social can reveal – the tech baron and Palantir data firm founder, Peter Thiel"

The ideology of the ‘Make America Great Again’ movement, which has transformed politics in the United States, is having an impact in the UK. But how is this influence being transmitted?

Fine Gael’s Heather Humphreys has avoided a property tax on her old constituency office after failing to declare she’s no longer entitled to an exemption.

For failing to make this declaration Humphreys could face criminal prosecution.

Just when the world thought we were safe in Gaza after the ceasefire was declared, the occupation is now committing a massacre in Gaza, with more than 70 martyrs under the rubble.

Here again with hope because that’s our duty—not to cede a single second to the occupation’s death-making project, not to take a rest because the news says so—and because for 22 weeks you’ve brought reliable help to six families to survive.

That’s the opposite of hopeless.

Palestinians agreed, as Israel stands on their neck with a loaded gun pointed at their face, Trump gurning in the background, that all hostages will be released in exchange for Israel withdrawing from less than half of the Gaza Strip. This is not negotiation; it is holding an entire people hostage.

Norway should give Trump the Nobel Peace Prize to actually make him try to be more peaceful.
