Rightwing media pander to thevprejudices of the ignorant and so manipulate them. They deal in fear and lies. Ref Germany in the 30s.

If you think this is vandalism, just wait til you see what they allowed to happen in Gaza 👊

The BBC just got what it deserved over Israel - thanks to Palestine Action

Palestine Action's protest today was driven by years of outrage over the BBC's refusal to cover the Palestinian struggle with the same urgency & accuracy as Israeli military actions

So sorry to
hear that Maestro Barenboim has Parkinson's. He is not only a giant of the musicsl world (my most intense musical experience was his Ring Cycle in 2013) but a fearless fighter for the commonalty of humanity with his wonderful orchestra of Palestinian and Israeli musicians.

I've just found out from this article that my whip still hasn't been restored.

Turns out speaking up for Palestine is still a punishable offence.

The US, UK, Germany and other Western nations have enabled Israel’s genocide in Gaza, eroding the rules-based international order established after WWII.

Yet millions worldwide understand: silence on Palestine is complicity in a system that will treat all of us as disposable.

This is ethnic cleansing, plain and simple.

But will the UK government condemn this?

Crucial to be aware of this ongoing threat of ethnic cleansing.

In this moment, it's essential the UK govt turbocharges efforts towards Palestinian statehood and holds the US to account to ensure it keeps within the rule of law and respects human rights including self determination.
Trump says US will take over the Gaza Strip, make it the ‘Riviera of the Middle East’ & permanently relocate Gazans > Extraordinary moment as Trump overturns decades of US policy in remarks that will anger US allies in region.

Trump's Gaza solution betrays his ignorance of history - and could make the conflict worse
Contrary to the US president's claim that many countries have offered to help take Palestinians in, none have done so publicly.

The death toll in Gaza has already been updated to 61,709.

The true scale of Israel's atrocities is only just emerging - and officials must face justice for every single life lost.

So should those who continued to send weapons, knowing full well they were enabling genocide.

The President of the United States welcome a leader wanted by the ICC and officially endorsed ethnic cleansing.

Now would be a good time for our government to defend international law.

If they won’t say it, we will: Palestinians aren’t going anywhere.

In 2018, the Prime Minister opposed a third runway at Heathrow.

Now, in the middle of a climate emergency, his government is backing it.

A complete U-turn at the expense of local communities and the planet.

Reckless, short-sighted and indefensible.

There is no more important challenge than the climate emergency.

That is why I will vote against Heathrow expansion.

Climate campaigners have defeated this before — and we will fight back again.

The climate crisis is here. So how can the Chancellor maintain that we can’t afford to uncancel the northern legs of HS2, which would supercharge low-carbon transport capacity around the UK, but claim that we can’t afford *not to* expand Heathrow?
