Say "Hello" to Olivier The Northern Hawk Owl. Very elusive, he spends most of his time, in the Boreal Forests of the Great White North. One of the most incredible hunters that I have ever witnessed.🦉

“I think the [winter fuel payment] means testing was too tight..to set it at pensioners who have annual income of less than £11,400 is too tight”
Martin Lewis says the winter fuel payment should have been extended to those pensioners with around “£20,000-25,000” annual income

It’s been 24 hours & neither Keir Starmer nor David Lammy have commented on the ICC’s decision to issue arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu & Yoav Gallant for war crimes & crimes against humanity.
Perhaps they could apply the same standards as the ones they outlined below:

Whereas in the UK we are just pretending it hasn't happened.
A reminder today, as US politicians including the President fall over one another to attack the ICC over arrest warrants and defend Netanyahu…

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?

NEW: Keir Starmer must apologise for 'having condoned the Israeli government’s war crimes in Gaza', the SNP have said.
The SNP’s Westminster leader Stephen Flynn said Starmer must confirm the UK will 'do its bit to enforce the warrant'.

There is a very simple reason why the UK government refuses to acknowledge the genocide in Gaza.
If they did, they would be admitting their own complicity in one of the greatest crimes of our time.
End all arms sales to Israel, now.
