While the world argues about AI replacing jobs, an old Chinese craftsman casually turns steaming wood into a solid stool in minutes... with no nails, no glue, and no machines doing the hard work.

Just heat, skill, and centuries of tradition that still leave millions impressed.

Amos Goldberg, Professor of Genocide Studies at The Hebrew University in Jerusalem "Yes, it is genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion. Jewish history will henceforth be stained"

Is there anyone more qualified and unbiased?

[Yanis Varoufakis @yanisvaroufakis]

Tony Blair is the living embodiment of what happens when political office becomes a down payment on future plunder. Ejected in 2007 by his own MPs as a massive liability, he bequeathed Britain a wild casino economy primed for the 2008 crash. And when the British economy crashed and burned, Mr Blair kept quiet while honing his skills at securing power by other means.

His first job, after his ejection from 10 Downing Street, was as the West’s Middle East envoy, with a supposed emphasis on Gaza. It took six painful years for Mr Blair’s tenure to prove a failure so profound it amounted to active complicity in Israel’s ethnic cleansing, in Palestinian erasure, and in paving the ground for the ongoing genocide.

Soon after, the Chilcot Inquiry demolished Blair’s Iraq lies, exposing him as a liar, a chancer and a war criminal responsible for countless corpses of Iraqis, but also of British soldiers.

Then came Blair’s real innovation: the financialisation of the ex-premiership itself. The Tony Blair Institute, fuelled by £130 million from Oracle's Larry Ellison—coincidentally, the largest individual donor to the Friends of the IDF—became a shadow state, brokering governance contracts for autocrats and companies like Palantir that weaponise AI to produce mega-death abroad and full-on surveillance of Western populations.

Now, in May 2026, this corporate fixer issues a 5700 word tantrum demanding that Labour embrace Trump even more than Starmer already has, denounce what is left of Labour’s betrayed Green New Deal, and trash the remnants of workers' rights. This is not the wisdom of an aging statesman. It is the frantic squirming of a man fearing his grip on oligarchic power might soon wane and whose entire post-10 Downing Street existence depends on preventing the many from ever reclaiming what the few have plundered.

Starmer's resignation is not enough. What needs booting out is the politics he represents: corporate greed, anti-migrant rhetoric and endless war.

Israel has blown up 10,000s of homes in south Lebanon, erasing dozens of villages. It has ethnically cleansed some 14% of Lebanese territory. It has destroyed bridges, cutting civilians off from help.

For how much longer are media and human rights groups going to suggest these "could be" war crimes?

Such terminology makes them utterly complicit in Israel's atrocities.

Hay una pandemia que nadie quiere frenar: la del egoísmo. Y esa, también se contagia.

El mayor riesgo para la salud global ya no es la falta de ciencia, sino la falta de conciencia. Por eso, cuando otros recortan, España duplica su ayuda.

Porque ninguna sociedad merece llamarse civilizada si abandona a los suyos. Cuidar de quien no puede cuidarse no es caridad. Es lo que nos hace humanos.

Banksy has unveiled a new sculpture of a man stepping off a stone base with his face obscured by a flag.

The overnight installation in Waterloo Place, London, was revealed in a video shared by the artist, and has drawn fans of his politically charged works.

UK Jewish MP: "Israel acting like Nazis in Gaza"

"Israel was born out of Jewish Terrorism - Tzipi Livni's Father was a Terrorist"
Astonishing claims in the House of Parliament. SIR Gerald Kaufman, the veteran Labour MP, compared the actions of Israeli troops in Gaza to the Nazis who forced his family to flee Poland.

During a Commons debate on the fighting in Gaza, he urged the government to impose an arms embargo on Israel.

Sir Gerald, who was brought up as an orthodox Jew and Zionist, said: "My grandmother was ill in bed when the Nazis came to her home town a German soldier shot her dead in her bed.

"My grandmother did not die to provide cover for Israeli soldiers murdering Palestinian grandmothers in Gaza. The present Israeli government ruthlessly and cynically exploits the continuing guilt from gentiles over the slaughter of Jews in the Holocaust as justification for their murder of Palestinians."

He said the claim that many of the Palestinian victims were militants "was the reply of the Nazi" and added: "I suppose the Jews fighting for their lives in the Warsaw ghetto could have been dismissed as militants."

He accused the Israeli government of seeking "conquest" and added: "They are not simply war criminals, they are fools."

This was in 2009 when the truth could still be spoken in the UK Parliament

La situación que hoy atraviesa Oriente Medio demuestra que la ley del más fuerte no trae paz, seguridad, ni estabilidad. Solo nos hace a todos más débiles.

La fuerza bruta no es el camino. España seguirá defendiendo el derecho internacional.

[Philip Proudfoot @PhilipProudfoot]

Gaza levelled, snipers on elevated mounds built from the pulverised earth, shooting anyone who crosses an unmarked line, including children.

What word would we use to describe the concentration of a people into a small camp under threat of death?

Forza Europeans!
Only 200,000 signatures needed to push EU institutions to suspend the indecent partnership agreement with Apartheid Israel. Bcs it is not OK to make business with a State that commits intl crimes on a daily basis.
Power to the People.

🇪🇸 BREAKING: Spanish PM Pedro calls for the IMMEDIATE ARREST of Netanyahu

He said: "Netanyahu launched the worst possible unjustified attack against Lebanon. His contempt for life and international law is intolerable. He is a criminal that must be arrested immediately.”

He also adds that the EU will suspend its Association Agreement with Israel very soon.

This is what true leadership looks like.

[sarah @sahouraxo]

This is horror in real time.

The moment Israel started dropping bombs on CIVILIAN AREAS in Lebanon.

Without any warning.

Israel dropped 160 bombs in the first minute alone — massacring over 250 civilians, dozens of them children.

People are still buried under the rubble.

For people in Europe, one of the most important objectives for political mobilisation now is to remove the US military bases. They are a menace to humanity, they are a threat to popular sovereignty, and every one of them must be closed.

[Edwy Plenel @edwyplenel]

La loi votée par le Parlement israélien (62 députés contre 48) instaure « un régime de peine capitale raciste » qui ne s’appliquera qu’aux Palestiniens. L’État d’Israël est bien devenu un régime d’apartheid, violant les droits humains fondamentaux. https://t.co/gi2k9GCCwu

[Jason Hickel @jasonhickel]

Two years of live-streamed genocide and now this. Just horrifying levels of depravity.

[Jason Hickel @jasonhickel]

I'll never forget how the Israelis bombed al-Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza in October 2023 and the world was shocked and horrified. Israel denied it, saying they would never commit such a heinous crime.

Then they went on to bomb every single hospital in Gaza.

Now they are doing the same in Lebanon and Iran. The Israelis have bombed at least 128 medical facilities and ambulances across south Lebanon. In Iran, the US and Israel have bombed 25 hospitals and medical centres.

In Lebanon, they are committing double tap strikes to kill medics and rescue workers, just as they did in Gaza. Medics are forced to delay their responses.

These monsters are normalizing war crimes that were once unthinkable.
