No one deserves to be slaughtered or kidnapped. The failure to enforce UN resolutions and international laws lies with the international community.

Given how far reaching and the proven ability of Mossad to read who , what , where their enemies ( and so called allies ) are , it seems incredible that they wouldn’t be fully in the picture of what was about to happen next door. They must have known.

Bye ! The ToryGraph et al will scream disaster headlines at us because we aren’t encouraging tax dodging billionaires to stay in their Mayfair penthouses whilst the rest of us on PAYE keep funding the services that underpin the society where they sook their millions from..

Netanyahu openly says he "supports the idea of a 'Greater Israel,' which is a batshit crazy idea, which some people used to say was a conspiracy theory on the far right."

Me to Piers Morgan on his show today.

Take a chill pill mate - Hamas are a bunch of murderous fanatics. I’d never defend that mob.

What is happening in Gaza is Genocide summed up perfectly in 2 minutes while a stunned Piers Morgan sits in silence.

I look forward to Netanyahu being taken out of the picture and a sensible govt investigation taking place and the truth published. Bibi is probably going to jail …

I had heard rumours about this some time ago but the reporting and consideration of what happened on 7th October was overtaken by the ghastly events unfolding every day for the population of Gaza. Total nightmare all round.

I quit over a year ago - Facebook 5 years ago. Missed them at first but once you build up your community on here it’s brilliant. I love it here.

A paean to privatised public transport.

Today I had to go from Stockport to Salisbury. So I bought a ticket

Stockport > Bristol > Salisbury

The drive to Stockport should have taken 35 minutes. Satnav said it would take 2 hours, and I'd miss my train.

So I went to Macclesfield, where I found...

Maybe he had his pointy hood on back to front?

And how much did Netanyahu and his alt right cabinet know about the assault that was coming on that day , but welcomed it secretly as it would given them the chance to hammer Gaza ? I’m sure they didn’t realise how bad it would be , but still , I bet they are complicit.

Same old Tories - lying , gaslighting , hate propaganda for their own ends . They deserve to fade to obscurity.

This is a lie.

There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years.

But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

This is encouraging. Californians understood the assignment. We got loud and spread the word on Prop 50. This is a fight against Republican anti-democratic tactics, but we still have to vote.

Get those ballots in, early voting has started. We’re going to pass Prop 50.

He is the worst of the Tories who came out of the Johnson cohort. He’s desperate to sound tough and uncompromisingly hard right. Engaging in stunts like the fare dodging debacle, or depriving kids of a welcoming environment with his paint-over act, and his latest race based comments. Horrible Tory!

Yes - let’s hammer the pensioners again - anything but tax the billionaires and multi nationals that are taking the piss with their inter company charges that wipe out domestic profits ! No matter if they depart abroad - every penny profit made in UK should get taxed here.
