This whole Epstein File episode has really brought home how much we’ve lost our empathy on a massive scale. There is actual evidence both documented and verified by survivors of horrific crimes. Committed by people at the highest levels. Yet not one of them has been punished.

Fucking BBC news reporters fudge Palestine, and meanwhile, settlers burst in and forcibly occupy Palesnians' houses in Al Khalil (Hebron), and take over land and monuments using the alibi of "preservation" of Jewish heritage (erasing when it is Palestinian history).

We don't have to choose between the economy and the planet.
The UN reports that nature-based solutions (restoring forests, sustainable agriculture) can provide 37% of the climate mitigation needed by 2030.
Investing in green jobs isn't charity,it’s the most intelligent long-term investment.

It's depressing that ministers ever thought this was proportionate, and disgusting that they haven't immediately accepted the judgement.

I expected such levels of knee-jerk stupidity from Braverman. But we voted Labour because we wanted better.

Be better.

This week, Israel returned 54 bodies to Gaza along with 66 bags of human remains, including skull samples. The International Committee of the Red Cross handed them over to al-Shifa Hospital, where forensic teams are now trying to give these Palestinians back their identities.

This is the second account - the first being in Chicago - of DHS agents mass detaining people and then *sorting them by race*.
More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...

I hear from people who are surprised I'm still talking about ICE, they thought they'd withdrawn from MN.

No, they have not. In some respects they've escalated.

Some asked why MN is a target. Are there are there a lot more illegals or criminals here?

No, it's not about that. It's about a grudge.

Israel is moving forward with its plans for mass execution of Palestinian prisoners without appeal or even a fair trial. Canada, France, UK, etc will all tut when they hang doctors for the crime of not abandoning their patients, and then move on to signing their next free trade agreement with Israel

Reform politicians are happy to throw insults from a distance.

But when it comes to debating their ideas? No show.

Richard Tice pulled out.
Farage won’t face me.
Now their candidate in Gorton & Denton has ducked our candidate Hannah Spencer.

Israeli forces killed nine Palestinians in the Gaza Strip on Monday, amid daily violations of a ceasefire agreement.

Since the “ceasefire” began on October 11, Israel has killed at least 587 Palestinians. Over 1,550 have been injured. Death toll figures are tentative.
