To be clear the International Criminal Court Act (2001) ,passed into law, makes clear the Home Secretary's responsibilities to implement warrants issued by ICC. What @YvetteCooperMP is saying is she is not certain whether the Gov might violate International and Domestic Law.

I should have been there, it's a travesty that I wasn't.

@danielelton @AaronBastani I'd say most, but of course not all demolition, isn't driven by the structure being in need of flattening but by changing fashions & greed.For every Euston Station torn down to much uproar, countless little-known Victorian gems have been lost to the wrecking ball up & down the UK

[Abbey Rees-Hales @Areeshales]

@DrSarahParker YES! Amazing, congrats.

🚨 Israel has killed nearly 119,000 Palestinians since October 2023, says a new estimate from US doctors.

99 US doctors and medical workers who volunteered in Gaza have written to Biden claiming the death toll is at least 118,908 - 5.4% of Gaza's population.

🚨 Israel has just bombed the very centre of Beirut — Bachoura — just meters away from Lebanese Parliament and United Nations Regional Headquarters

🚨 No warnings were given and this is a strike in an area considered “safe”

🚨 They are retaliating to their failure in the South by bombing civilians in the capital

[Philip Proudfoot @PhilipProudfoot]

Beirut now; they are carpet bombing the city.

100,000 people fled to Beirut from the South in search of safety

The Taliban are an abomination. An abomination created by the West in its crusade against the Soviet Union, of which entity no one needs to be proud of either. Solidarity to the women of Afghanistan, may the patriarchs perish.

[Stop the War Coalition @STWuk]

🌹Labour has committed to a 2.5% increase in defence spending, an “unshakeable commitment to NATO” and nuclear weapons.

☮️But we need a foreign and defence policy based on peace and diplomacy, not war and destruction.

Could France really make Jean Luc Melenchon Prime Minister?

It sounds impossible - but this is the same country that has small children with drawn on beards smoking fake cigarettes while singing Serge Gainsbourg. Anything is possible. https://t.co/77tIsWAW04

[Novara Media @novaramedia]

Novara Media has probed the financial affairs of Praful Nargund and found that should he become an MP, he may be in a position to legislate on NHS privatisation while also benefiting from it.

Labour are throwing resources at Islington North and Green target seats instead of Clacton and other reform potentials because it’s more important they extinguish hope for a better world than fascism.
