We have to accept that millions of Americans are misogynistic, climate change denying, racist fucking lunatics who don't give a single fuck about anything apart from the price of gas in their tanks.
Having done that we need to stop caring about America and build a better Europe.
An important reminder today for Londoners: our city is - and will always be - for everyone.
We will always be pro-women, pro-diversity, pro-climate and pro-human rights.
These are some of the values that will continue to bind us together as Londoners.
Earlier this morning Janey passed away in her sleep. Her family were with her.
The love and support from all her friends and fans during this cancer journey brought her enormous joy. It has also been a huge comfort to us, her family and close friends, thank you.
Krishnan Guru-Murthy, "As we speak tonight.. Israel has hit a school, a hospital, a food distribution centre, its fired on UN troops, and is said to be considering starving northern Gaza.. Should there be any red lines for Britain's political support of Israel?"
Emily Thornberry, "Israel has the right to defend itself.. Within the confines of international law.. And proportionate.. All civilian life is equal"
KGM, "That policy isn't working... Is there anything Israel can do which would mean Britain's political and diplomatic support for Israel should be withdrawn?"
ET, "The question I think should be asked, how do we get this to stop.. I'm not interested in gestures.. I want invasion of Lebanon to stop.. A ceasefire in Gaza.. Not cutting off the top third of Gaza which looks like Israel general plans are"
KGM, "Do you agree that would be a war crime if northern Gaza is starved?"
ET, "It is a war crime to forcibly move a population from one part of a country to another.. It is a war crime to starve people.. Any war crimes should go before the courts.. There are war crimes on both sides.. By Hamas.. By Iran"
"The European Union has been right to condemn Israel attacking UN in Lebanon"
Disappointing @EmilyThornberry you were able to say Iran and Hamas commit war crimes but were unable to say Israel has as well - From your body language it's obvious what you think, but you can't say it. It's almost as if you're a hostage unable to speak your mind, when you're actually the chair of our Foreign Affairs Committee, but can't express yourself - sad for us as a country and sad for the people of Gaza and Lebanon who continue to suffer
How TF is this not collective punishment?
How TF is this not a war crime?
You were supposed to be a human rights lawyer @Keir_Starmer
What about their rights?
I pay tribute to Olivier Bancoult and Chagossian communities who have been disgracefully treated for so long.
Following decades of campaigning, this long overdue settlement at last includes the right to return. A milestone for decolonisation.

"We stand with Israel, and recognise her right to self defence in the face of this aggression."
UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer is addressing the British public after Iran launched missiles towards Israel.

It is not an incursion. It is an invasion of a sovereign country. Made possible by the US, which just wrings its hands at every outrage, then ships more weaponry.

Interviewing me on @TheNewsAgents Emily Maitlis claimed that @jeremycorbyn was too close to Putin
But there were British politicians who were much closer to Putin than Jeremy
@maitlis
This right here.
Murderers pure and simple. It was never about Palestinians.. Israel has a superiority complex and a bloodlust that is being sponsored by the West. Disgusting and may God punish all who support these monsters.
Yesterday Palestine , today Lebanon tomorrow the whole Middle East and after tomorrow the whole planet . Because Israel needs to be safe even if the whole world is destroyed.
