The last photo of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, detained after refusing to abandon his colleagues and patients.

In just one image, we see both the power of Palestinian humanity and the moral weakness of all those complicit in genocide.

End all arms sales to Israel, now.

Israel has destroyed the last remaining hospital in northern Gaza.

We have witnessed the total decimation of Palestinian healthcare, met with silence from political leaders who refuse to acknowledge the horrors they have enabled.

This is the dehumanising reality of genocide.

The WHO said Israel’s 'systematic dismantling' of Gaza’s health system is a 'death sentence for tens of thousands of Palestinians,' after Israeli forces stormed and burned Kamal Adwan Hospital and detained many of its staff.

So it turns out they spent £715 million on sending a grand total of FOUR volunteers to Rwanda.

For comparison, this is more than you could expect to spend on building an entire brand new hospital in the UK
In July, I FOI'd the Home Office for the full breakdown of spending on the Rwanda scheme

I was refused because the government planned to publish the data in future, and today is the day. These numbers are in millions

The ICC’s arrest warrants are long overdue.

The Prime Minister & Foreign Secretary must immediately endorse this decision. That is the bare minimum.

Will the UK government now, finally, honour its international obligations to prevent genocide and end all arms sales to Israel?

We have never had a serious, sustained conversation in the UK about reclaiming the billions stolen from the taxpayer through corporate tax evasion, and reinvesting that stolen money in housing and public services. Never, ever. I keep hearing “it’s complicated” but it’s really not. It’s theft.

Dawuna is fast becoming a 1/1 artist for me. When he releases, you listen!
This is so good, Dawuna returns with a new LP, nodding to Black-album era Prince, Jai Paul’s scrappy pop perfection, and so much more beside that. Unforgettable DIY brilliance - a huge tip if yr into Prince, Jai Paul, Tirzah, Leila, D’Angelo ✨
