In September, my Gaza (Independent Inquiry) Bill returns to Parliament.

Its purpose: to uncover the full scale of British complicity in genocide.

The next Prime Minister has a simple choice: will they support this inquiry, or will they block our efforts to expose the truth?

Please keep your creepy meta pedo glasses far away from me

[Novara Media @novaramedia]

What's the point of a ceasefire with Israel?

More than 1,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza since a ceasefire was declared in October 2025.

Israel is using the same playbook in Lebanon, continuing to bomb and occupy the country regardless of whether it scuppers a US-Iran peace deal.

@harriepw explains.

Didn't take long. This is why anon briefing needs to be taken with a big handful of salt

I'll celebrate the booting of Palantir from our NHS when it actually happens. There's been no commitment from Burnham himself, just unnamed allies briefing.

[Dominic Penna @DominicPenna]

*EXCLUSIVE*

Andy Burnham is set to ditch Palantir from the NHS, @Telegraph can reveal

The prime minister in waiting did not grant the US tech giant any contracts in Greater Manchester and is minded to take the same approach in No 10

A new report reveals Israel’s use of sexualised violence against Palestinians as a military strategy and tool of repression. @harriepw reports. https://t.co/0KrGWWULZd

For those interested in facts …

[Palestine Solidarity Campaign @PSCupdates]

We've sent our poll to all Labour MPs, showing that support for Israel's genocide has been a major factor in voters ditching the party.

The next Prime Minister must dump Starmer’s shameful policy on Palestine to have any hope of winning back these voters.

New favourite genre of tweet is the pope dunking on AI

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

We cannot consider #AI to be morally neutral. In reality, every technical tool embodies choices and priorities through what it measures, ignores, and optimizes, and how it classifies people and situations. Ethical discernment cannot be limited to asking whether we are using a system for good or bad purposes. It must also examine how that system is designed and what vision of the human person and society is embedded in the data and models that guide it. #MagnificaHumanitas

[Harriet Williamson @harriepw]

The briefing also contains separate polling of current Labour members who similarly support a stronger approach on Israel & say that policy on Palestine will be a significant factor in who they support in any upcoming leadership contest

[Harriet Williamson @harriepw]

NEW: @PSCupdates has sent Labour MPs a briefing outlining that the party’s record on Palestine is a major factor for progressive voters ditching Labour & they overwhelmingly support tougher policies on Israel

Oxevision – a controversial surveillance technology that films patients 24 hours a day in their bedrooms – is currently used in around 40% of NHS trusts’ mental health inpatient services, including children’s wards.

Following a ruling from the patient complaints watchdog, a senior lawyer has warned that NHS trusts continuing to use the technology are opening themselves up to “clear legal risk”.

NEW: NHS trusts that continue to use a controversial surveillance technology in mental health inpatients' bedrooms are opening themselves up to “clear legal risk”, according to a senior lawyer representing campaign group @StopOxevision

[Harriet Williamson @harriepw]

The ICO is currently investigating Oxevision's developer after campaigners called for an examination of the legality of its collection, processing, retention and access to patient data gained from use in the NHS.
