BREAKING: Taybeh, the last Palestinian Christian village in the West Bank, is on fire!

Local residents report that Israeli settlers torched the fields.

[Penny Mordaunt @PennyMordaunt]

This is illuminating.

“..oversaw..” that is an interesting choice of word. 

Because as Suella knows I did not draft that bill. I did not see it prior to its introduction. I was, as she knows, only asked to take it through the Commons hours before it was heard. Nor was I given any authority to alter it- but I did make asks to do so to the Cabinet Office- to change the gender-neutral language wording to female wording. 

All this is a matter of record. As are the names of those that drafted it. As are the members of the PLB Committee which would have cleared it, a Committee which included Suella as the Attorney General. Given that the Bill was about her maternity leave I assumed she would have taken an interest. 

Perhaps I was wrong to make such assumptions. And to take her thanks and delight at it being introduced that she expressed to me at the time- in writing- as her genuine feelings. 

As I say, illuminating.

What Ben Gvir did on camera is nothing compared to the murder, looting, arson and terror being perpetrated by his militias on the West Bank about which we are hearing barely a peep in Rome, London and other capitals

Precisely

[Kit Malthouse MP @kitmalthouse]

Interesting- surely sensible to release the legal advice received “at the time” to clear this up…

[Fraser Nelson @FraserNelson]

What's to celebrate? Harborne lives and pays his taxes in Thailand - his 'charity' involves a secret £5m (!) to Nigel Farage personally.

This degree of personal bankrolling and enrichment is unprecedented in our democracy. A scandal hiding in plain sight https://t.co/maRks88jMO

[Fraser Nelson @FraserNelson]

Also: gifts aren’t taxable.

So £5m tax-free personal “gift” to Farage will be the the biggest single sum accepted by any UK politician in democratic history.

Reform is lobbying for crypto tax cuts, forcing BoE to hold crypto etc. A scandal hiding in plain sight.

Three first responders from Lebanon’s Civil Defence were killed in an Israeli double-tap attack last night after racing to a bombed building in Tyre District. Two Leb army soldiers were wounded and the two civilian bulldozers sent to help at same time were also hit. Targeted during a so-called ‘ceasefire’. Hussein Ghadbouni, Hussein Al-Sati and Hadi Daher are among more than 300 healthworkers killed in Israeli attacks since Oct, 2023 while involv in relief operations

[Yehuda Shaul @YehudaShaul]

Lately, settlers have been systematically uprooting olive trees in Turmus Ayya. Bulldozers operate for hours openly, they don’t work under-the-radar anymore.

It is estimated that ~80% residents of Turmus Ayya are US Citizens or Residents.

🇮🇱🇱🇧 The scale of Israel's destruction of towns in south Lebanon is WILD

Why is the world sitting back and letting this happen?

[sarah @sahouraxo]

BREAKING

Israel is blowing up entire civilian homes in Aadshit al-Qusayr, South Lebanon right now — during a ceasefire.

Civilian homes.

No justification.

Just deliberate terror and destruction to ensure civilians have nothing left to return to.

A war crime in broad daylight.

[Sky News @SkyNews]

The solar panels destroyed by Israel's army are used to provide the Lebanese town of Debl with electricity, as well as supply power to its water station.

The IDF says the actions seen in the video do not align with their values.

Can we make this compulsory please

[𝓢𝓪𝓶 @samofsamshire]

It’s taken us 100 years but we’ve finally relearned now to mass produce beautiful homes.

Well done Welborne 🌳

[Kevin Hollinrake MP @kevinhollinrake]

Assisted dying is a highly emotive issue for people on both sides of the argument.

I am disappointed that assisted dying will not pass this parliamentary session.

It is my hope that it will be reintroduced in the next few months and that the will of the public and the their elected representatives will be respected soon after.

Former Home Secretary Lord Baker:

'I believe that the prolonged filibuster which they embarked on is a constitutional farrago, a denial of democracy, and it is a return to give to this House the wrecking powers that were taken away from us in 1912.'

"I'm not upset, I'm incandescent with rage."

Lord Markham honours terminally ill people who died during the passage of the assisted dying Bill, who were denied choice and compassion at the end of their lives.

[Sky News @SkyNews]

“We will go again… Please do not give up hope.”

@kimleadbeater shares her message to those who are terminally ill and supported her assisted dying private members’ bill.
