Lord Walney: "The UK is a friend of Israel"

Matt Shea: "Is being a friend of Israel the right position to have given the mass slaughter of civilians that has been going on in Gaza?"

"Well, what you say on that is highly contested"

Lord Walney is a genocide apologist.

Genuinely think this coverage is worthy of formal complaint – and if the BBC doesn’t take it seriously, it should be escalated to Ofcom.

The appearance of caving to the Trump White House, when the BBC is being sued, could be disastrous for public trust.
The BBC coverage is absolutely terrible.

It leads on "sharply contested narratives"

It has a dramatic skew to the US government

It has posted the video but has failed to report on what it shows: it shows the US govt account is untrue

The Ministry of Justice is still refusing to meet with the lawyers or families of hunger strikers being held on remand.

This is a shambolic dereliction of duty.

I have written to David Lammy, again, imploring him to do the right thing before it is too late.

The German police brutally assault an Irish woman protesting against Israel's genocide.

The German state is a disgrace.

It committed genocide against the Jewish people - far from its only genocide.

It forced Palestinians to pay the price, viciously silencing anyone who objects

What does it take for the UK government to get angry with Israel?

Slaughtering innocent people? Destroying hospitals?

Deliberate starvation? Torture? Rape?

No, it's two MPs being sent back to Heathrow.

Israel deporting two Labour MPs? The British government is finally outraged | Owen Jones
Eighteen months of slaughter in Gaza has resulted in little more than tepid official letters. It’s taken diplomatic humiliation to cause real anger, says Guardian columnist Owen Jones
