ex Labour. Socialist. Teacher. Refuse to trust Tories or New Labour.

We will not forget: Trump started his illegal, genocidal war against the Iranian people by slaughtering these innocent children, their teachers, and elementary school staff in Minab. He, his allies, and accomplices will always be the enemy.

Socialism doesn’t work because as soon as a state turns socialist they randomly get invaded and bombed

Remember who you are, what you are and who you represent.

Ahead of tomorrow's historic parade, think of north London’s local residents, communities and businesses and respect the area  ❤️

[Alaa From Gaza @alaafromgaza92]

The current reality in Gaza is, in many ways, Israel’s best-case scenario.

Israel has recovered its living hostages and the bodies of those who died. Hamas no longer holds a single Israeli hostage, alive or dead.

More than 80% of Gaza’s homes and infrastructure have been destroyed. Israel now controls roughly 60% of the Gaza Strip and, according to its own officials, plans to expand that to 70%. If that happens, more than two million Palestinians will be squeezed into just 30% of the territory they once lived across.

Israel is carrying out its campaign in full view of the world, justifying it as an effort to disarm Hamas, dismantle its military wing, and target Hamas and Islamic Jihad operatives.

At the same time, it enjoys unprecedented support from Washington. Netanyahu appears able to do virtually whatever he wants, with little sign of meaningful pressure or consequences.

Hamas, meanwhile, has almost no leverage left. Its role has largely been reduced to sending reports to mediators about Israeli violations and issuing statements of condemnation as Gaza continues to be devastated.

The world is distracted by economic crises and political turmoil. In less than two weeks, global attention will shift even further as the World Cup dominates headlines and screens.

For Gaza, that may mean even fewer eyes watching as Israel continues to shape realities on the ground.

That is the tragedy of this moment: Gaza is being transformed before the world's eyes, and yet much of the world has already looked away.

En Italia en los años 1940 decían:
“Hay tres cosas incompatibles entre sí: inteligencia, honradez y fascismo. Quien es inteligente y fascista, no es honrado.
Quien es honrado y fascista, no es inteligente.
Y quien es inteligente y honrado, no es fascista".

[Aidan Regan @Aidan_Regan]

Ireland should refuse to play Israel. You don’t share a pitch with a genocidal state and call it sport. Forfeit the 6 points. Rally the world. Embarrass UEFA.

[The Receipts UK ♿ @david_hollas]

I've obtained the master contract between the Ministry of Defence and Palantir Technologies UK Ltd.
It covers 2026 to 2029. It was signed on 30 December 2025 — while Parliament was in recess. There was no competitive tender. Here's what's in it. And what they don't want you to see.
The contract is administered through Defence Digital at MoD Corsham, the nerve centre of UK military digital and intelligence infrastructure.
The contract number is redacted. Not the value. Not the scope. The contract number itself is classified.
The entire pricing section is gone. Redacted under Section 43 of the Freedom of Information Act, commercial interests. So is the IP clause. So are the key liability figures. So are all the contract schedules.
A US company is embedded into UK defence infrastructure for three years. The public cannot see what we are paying for it.
Now here's the clause that should be getting more attention.
Palantir staff working on classified MoD sites must hold Security Check clearance as a minimum, with Developed Vetting available when required. The contract says personnel should be UK nationals where site classification requires.
Should. Not must.
Palantir was founded by Peter Thiel. It grew out of a CIA seed investment. Its largest shareholder base is American. Its founders have direct relationships with US intelligence going back two decades.
The contract does not prohibit non-UK nationals from working on classified UK defence environments. It expresses a preference.
Condition 14. The media clause.
Palantir is contractually prohibited from communicating with press, television, radio or other media about anything in this contract without prior written MoD consent.
That is why Palantir UK has said nothing publicly about this deal. They are legally barred from doing so.
The contract was signed on 30 December 2025. Parliament was in recess. No tender process. No public announcement at signing. The contract number is a state secret. The price is hidden. And the contractor is gagged.
This is how £240 million of public money gets committed to a single American company with no scrutiny whatsoever.
Section 43, commercial interests, is a qualified exemption under FOIA. That means a public interest test applies.
The argument that Palantir's commercial sensitivity outweighs the public's right to know the cost of a no-tender three-year defence contract is not a strong one. I'll be filing for an internal review.
I'll be publishing the full analysis on Substack. If you think Parliament should be able to see what we're paying Palantir and why no other company was given the chance to bid, share this thread.
The document is real. The redactions are real. Draw your own conclusions.

🇨🇺 No suelo hacer este tipo de publicaciones, pero siento que esta vez no puedo quedarme callada. Cuba, igual que Palestina, está sufriendo un genocidio impulsado por el bloqueo de Estados Unidos.

Quiero pedirles algo, de corazón, a quienes me siguen y también a los que no nos seguimos. Necesito su solidaridad. Cuba se está quedando sin combustible. Sin combustible, los hospitales se apagan, la vida cotidiana se detiene y todos los procesos esenciales para sobrevivir están en riesgo extremo. Los más vulnerables: los niños, los ancianos, las embarazadas son quienes más lo están sufriendo.

Cuba necesita combustible YA. Por justicia, por humanidad, por el derecho a vivir. Ayudemos a que esta realidad no quede en silencio.

You insult by calling people "European"? Some nerve.

[Rick Victory 🍉 @RickVictory67]

@JonathanLitvak @Arabian__KGB @LindseyGrahamSC The surname Litvak (and its variant Litwak) is of Eastern Ashkenazic origin. It is a habitational and descriptive name derived from the Yiddish word litvak and Polish Litwak, which translates to "Lithuanian".
