"A Gaza ceasefire without justice or Palestinians at the table is a betrayal" - Ruth James, Oxfam's regional humanitarian coordinator in @middleeasteye-rss.bsky.social
A Gaza ceasefire without justice or Palestinians at the table is a betrayal
Palestinian families have been starved and bombed for two years, their lives and livelihoods shattered. Without true accountability, there can be no healing

Today in Edinburgh, we joined @patmillsuk.bsky.social to bring the ‘Tax Us, the Super-Rich’ bus to town.
Millionaires have a message for the UK Chancellor: Tax us more.
Fairer taxes on wealth could help lift people out of poverty and fund the future we all deserve #TaxJusticeScotland

Ten years ago in Paris, every country pledged bold action to cut emissions and tackle the climate crisis. Since then, the super rich have burned through twice as much carbon pollution as the bottom 50% of humanity combined.

Out of the 50,000 attendees at COP29 last year, we saw only 180 indigenous representatives.
How can we fairly discuss real climate justice when this tiny fraction represents the people who protect 80% of Earth's biodiversity?

Did you know you pay more fuel tax on a single car journey than a billionaire does on a private jet flight?
Right now the gov is subsidising tax breaks, when they could be using that tax to generate billions for public services.
