Congratulations to you. Children are innocent and lovable. Those 168 children that your boss killed in the school in Minab, and you justified, were also children. When you kiss your baby, think of the mothers of those children.
Remember around 2017 when Corbyn would say stuff like “payday loans are bad” and the Guardian would publish earnest counter arguments completely unprompted.
There is a myth, very widely held in Labour, that we achieved an huge popular victory in 2024 under Starmer.
In fact we won 9.7 million votes, over 3 million fewer than in 2017 and half a million less than the 'disastrous' 2019 poll.
We won because the Tories imploded in 2024.
A very happy 100th birthday to David Attenborough.
The whole world owes an enormous debt to David Attenborough for passionately defending the natural world and how we relate to it.
Let us heed his lesson of living with nature, not on top of nature.
I went to vote just now. I remembered that there was one party that was in favour of concentration camps at home and mass killing abroad, so I voted for them.
The stabbing of two Jewish men is horrifying.
So too is the attack on a Muslim man the same day, ignored by much of our media.
All human lives are equal — and we should oppose all hatred and violence wherever it appears. That’s how we build a safe & peaceful society for all.
BREAKING: The Israeli naval vessel that abducted the 180 Sumud Flotilla crews off the coast of Crete (an act of piracy and a gross violation of the Law of the Sea) is intend on victimising two of them: Saif Abukeshek, a Spanish citizen of Palestinian origin, and Thiago Ávila, a Brazilian citizen who has distinguished himself with repeated attempts to break the illegal, genocidal, Israeli blockage of Gaza.
Unlike the remaining abducted members of the Sumud Flotilla crew, which the Israeli navy disembarked in Crete, Saif and Thiago are detained and bound for an Israeli prison. This is a double violation of International Law: First, Israel abducted them illegally at sea. Second, Israel is now transporting them, violently, illegally, to one of its notorious prisons.
Meanwhile, the Greek government is cooperating fully in Israel’s criminal behaviour, effectively surrendering its search and rescue obligations and conniving with Israel to victimise the brave crews of the Sumud Flotilla who are steadfastly, through their activism, defending International Law as well as the verdict of the International Court of Justice which has clearly and unequivocally declared Israel’s continued naval blockade of Gaza and its occupation of the Palestinian territories illegal.
Through their complicity and their silence, the Greek government, the European Union, the mainstream media, the West more generally, are flouting, indeed they are trashing, their supposed, much publicised, ‘Western values’. Let us all demand:
· The immediate release of Saif and Thiago
· An end to Israel’s criminal behaviour in international waters
· The termination of Israel’s illegal Gaza blockade
· That the Greek government and the European Union cease and desist from lending logistical and moral support to Israel’s genocide in Gaza and its ethnic cleansing campaigns in E. Jerusalem and the West Bank
We extend our best wishes to the @AJEnglish team, who were attacked by Zionists in London, England.
We condemn the attack on the Al Jazeera team; the perpetrators must be brought to justice immediately.
This twisted Zionist mentality perpetrates such disgraceful acts wherever they happen to be; these individuals are by no means Jews—they are Israeli Zionist gangs.
Unfortunately, due to Zionists, the Jewish community in Europe is also under attack; Zionists are fueling antisemitism.
Whoever carried out this attack is by no means Jewish; they are godless Zionists dressed as Jews.
Hatzola, set up by the local Jewish community, provides life-saving care to people of all faiths and none.
It is appalling that this valued, volunteer-run ambulance service has been targeted. We must oppose hatred, and build a society where everyone can live in safety & peace.
