For years it has been obvious that if Israel was prepared to end occupation and recognise a Palestinian State on “67 borders which is official UK policy (in theory not practice ) then Israel’s neighbours / the region/ Muslim world all stood ready to defend Israel and it’s security.
There has been no partner for peace in Israel with Netanyahu at the helm and our appeasement of him and his far right extremist Cabinet has emboldened him to destabilise the region and everyone’s security including the UKs
It is morally right, legally right and in UK interest to stop their support for Netanyahu and that starts by stopping all UK arms sales

300 million people died of smallpox from 1900 to the disease's eradication. The eradication of smallpox was arguably the greatest public health endeavour of all time, and the key to its success was vaccination.

Since 2015/16, the local authority public health grant has been cut by 28% in real terms/person.

Today, we've published a new @HealthFdn long read setting out how the grant could be restored and more fairly shared between local authorities 🧵

@jeanmadams @Nina_Tr_Rogers @TarraPenney @ADMBriggs @stevencjcummins @Catrin_P_Jones @MikeRayner @Pete_Scarbs @ProfRichSmith @martinwhite33 @MRC_Epid well done for spotting this and maintaining your integrity. I am sure it was hard to see the key effect change but important the true values are shared.

“The most important fact in modern British domestic politics: in the 1990s, a first-time buyer couple on a low-to-middle income saving 5% of their wages would have enough for an average deposit after three years. Today it would take them 24 years.” https://t.co/Vy004BZDTq
