Two children have been killed every day in Gaza since the so-called ceasefire began.

Why has this disappeared from the headlines?

The genocide never ended — and our government is still complicit.

End all arms sales to Israel, now.

"All of this makes clear the fact that the “ceasefire” is not a ceasefire at all. The Israeli regime continues to attack Gaza, to starve the Palestinian population and to deny it access to proper shelter and healthcare." www.aljazeera.com/opinions/202...
No, there is no ceasefire in Gaza
Israel’s bombing of Gaza is not a ‘violation of the ceasefire'. It is a continuing genocide under diplomatic cover.

🚄Excellent news - the government is freezing rail fares!🚄

Next we need REDUCTIONS as UK rail fares are out of control

But this is a step in the right direction after 30 years of privatisation and a win for public ownership! 🎉🎉🎉

Regulated fares, which include season tickets and off-peak returns, will not see annual price rises for the first time in 30 years, the government announces.

Labour's manifesto promised the NHS would be "publicly owned and publicly funded"

It would be a massive mistake if the government introduces new private finance, breaking their promise and against all the evidence

WELL DONE to the 40 Labour MPs standing up to say NO to new PFI

Bringing back PFI to our NHS would be harmful to patients.

“Like a family using a payday loan to buy their home, yes, we’d end up with a building, but we’ll have to sacrifice meals to keep up with the payments.”

MPs are against those plans. Time to drop them, Wes Streeting.

Trump’s ‘peace plan’ will never be meaningfully realised – and was never intended to be. It is simply a way to justify prolonging Gaza’s living hell.

We won't stop until the govt has heard us: the only lesson that can be learnt from the disaster of PFI is a fully publicly owned and publicly funded NHS - like this government promised in their manifesto.
