Entire family lines wiped out, anyone refusing to admit this is #Genocide is complicit. #Gaza #FreePalestine
According to recorded figures, Israel has slaughtered every single member of 2,700 families, with over 6,000 families left with just a single sole survivor.
And of course the actual death toll is far higher.

BREAKING: Labour position last night was that it was ‘categorically untrue’ party briefed before Andy Burnham was informed of decision to block him. Government now appears to be rowing back on that as Sophy Ridge interviews Secretary of State for Scotland Douglas Alexander

BBC News interrupting Tim Walz speaking live on the Minneapolis shooting to go to a commander from Ice speaking live on the Minneapolis shootings isn’t even both sides-ing anymore, it’s absurd.

The MAGA numpties and JD Vance were out marching and crying about fertilised eggs yesterday. Not a word about a little five year old boy kidnapped and taken to a camp in Texas. They don’t give a fuck about children.

To quote @goodlawproject.org we need to take personal responsibility in keeping the far right out of the Scottish parliament. Trump’s little puppet Farage wants to do to us what MAGA is doing to the USA. It can be so simple. We just need a good turn out in May. Make sure you’re registered to vote
People are scared of the spread of fascism, rightly so. We have 🏴 elections in May and it’s essential to keep Reform out. The far right thrive on apathy and hopelessness.
Good turn out almost always beats them. Register to vote. Why wait? Do it today

Sadly I'm gonna be re-upping this a lot until Trump's Presidency ends - or our next General Election.
Are you filled with righteous anger about Donald Trump's fascism in the States? Good, but not enough. Now, make it your personal responsibility to ensure Nigel Farage never gets to introduce it here.

People already working hard to prove how perfect Alex Pretti was. To show he didn't "deserve" to be killed. But it's a trap folks. You're only feeding into a dynamic where people who are considered lesser get no protection. You don't have to be an Alex Pretti to deserve to live.

Do I really need to see state-sanctioned murder from multiple angles again and again on every social media platform?
There must be a better way to hold power to account than traumatising everyone on social media. Leading to greater anxiety and reduced use of tools that help us to be in community.

They executed another person in the streets of Minneapolis today. Just 3 weeks after they murdered Renee Good. Mainstream media is already doing their work as police and fed stenographers to blame another victim for their own murder at the hands of federal agents.

When protesters are called domestic terrorists because they are standing up to fascism then the state (country) is a failed one.

I don't care how much you've paid out already, how much you like the particular place or sport- just don't travel to the #USA in the foreseeable future if you can at all avoid it. It's not safe and countries should be releasing travel warnings against going there. #AuthoritarianRegime

Well primary teachers we have a media literacy question for Monday!
"If Trump is threatening to take over Greenland, what is wrong with this AI image from the White House?"
Pretty sure most of my class of eight year olds with their actual knowledge of living things and geography will get this one!
