The #Mosque in Hartlepool that was attacked by far right thugs.
Last year it gave £25k to the British Legion through the sale of poppies
Cooked over 25k meals for people in Hartlepool who were hungry
Anybody got a list of what the far right thugs have done for their communities?
Today, I'm thinking of all those in Israel and Palestine suffering unimaginable pain, trauma and fear.
The horrific attacks on civilians in Israel were deplorable. This cannot justify the indiscriminate killing of Palestinians, who are paying the price for a crime they did not commit.
Half of Gaza’s population are children. Trapped in an open-air prison without food, water, gas or electricity, they are watching their homes turn to rubble with nowhere to go.
We should condemn the use of violence against all civilians, Israeli and Palestinian. And we must renew our calls for an immediate ceasefire to prevent any further loss of life.
In times of war, we need more voices for peace — and the only way to achieve peace is to end the occupation.
@HenryNormalpoet Listened to the show tonight on a long journey home. Loved it - made my journey less boring. Love to hear more about Japanese poetry - your version. Was it Haiku? The poem you read at the end about treasuring the moments we have already experienced was especially beautiful ❣️
I just signed the campaign calling on water companies to stop the unjust act of hiking our bills while allowing water companies to pay shareholder dividends. https://t.co/lEg0jYFMZ1

Incredible video. Afghan dad jokingly says school is only for boys. Watch his remarkable daughter - who can’t be more than 5 or 6 years old - respond with these arguments.
Afghan girls have been denied access to schools and universities. This little girl's courage represents the collective voice of countless Afghan girls who yearn for equal educational opportunities.
As an advocate for girls' education the father's teasing is simply to highlight an important message: that the Taliban - another backward regime - are harming the people of his country.
It’s time the world is done with them.
Ditto the “Islamic” Republic in Iran #regime
Wild. Rafat Sublaban, whose home was stolen by army-backed settlers, screams “we want out medicine! We want our furniture,” as Jewish settlers taunt him from his own windows.
How do Israelis let themselves live among the memories and belongings of the families they expelled?
It has just been announced that 2-year-old Muhammad has died of his wounds, four days after Israeli soldiers shot him in the head while he was outside his home in Nabi Saleh.

It’s a scam. Nationalise water
