It was obvious Matthew Doyle didn’t belong in the House of Lords. As I wrote just over a month ago app.prospectmagazine.co.uk/story/72007/...
The PM vowed to abolish the Lords. Why is he stuffing it with allies instead?
In Matthew Doyle, we are about to get another less than stellar peer. Now is the time for change

My piece in Middle East Eye on Wes Streeting and what he said on Israel. www.middleeasteye.net/opinion/wes-...
Wes Streeting has utterly exposed the UK's complicity in Israel's crimes
In messages last summer, the Labour minister acknowledged that Tel Aviv had gone 'rogue', even as his government continued shipping arms

🚨 #Sudan #LestWeForget 🚨

Particularly moved by #Amal's story: "..she and her husband resisted [the #RSF]. He was shot dead, she was beaten. Their house was destroyed. Two of their sons are dead...she struggles to get out of bed each day. *💔I was a big woman, now my health is not like before*💔 "

I think this is the most important article I've written for a while: a trip to Sudan to report on the UN's refugee agency.

Battered by Trump's cuts and western retreat, can humanitarianism survive?

Renée Good and Alex Pretti were murdered for daring to interfere with the Trump administration’s efforts to normalize abductions and state violence.

By searching for "Farage" in the Epstein Files database (justice.gov/epstein), 38 results come up.

In one, Steve Bannon suggests to Epstein that his advisory roles to European political parties means he can influence European Parliament…. 1/3

"If you want to set aside resources for your future productivity, that means setting aside consumption" @gilesyb.bsky.social is right: gileswilkes.substack.com/p/be-more-ro... I suspect decades of mass unemployment has blinded politicians to this awkward implication of full employment.
