@AndyBurnhamGM is an absolute disgrace.
If you can’t judge those who flagrantly commit genocide when Jewish scholars, the ICC, Amnesty International, The UN Human Rights Counci, Human Rights Watch, Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention, and The International Network of Scholars and Activists for Boycotting Israel's Genocidal Regime unequivocally do, that’s all you need to know to pass judgement on Andy Burnham.
Non si parla più di Palestina? FALSO.
Forse certi media e politici hanno voltato pagina, ma il popolo italiano resta vigile, come testimoniano i presìdi che da oltre un anno tengono viva la coscienza collettiva.
Lieta di incontrarli il 19 giugno. Il silenzio non è un'opzione.
An audience member at a Q&A recently asked me why I'm so apocalyptic. The genocide in Gaza, beyond being a tragedy, marks an irreversible shift in the global world order. Before the genocide, the imperialist ambitions of the Western oligarchic class were partially constrained by the utopian ideal of the rules-based order. Now that ideal is gone, and unrestrained barbarity will characterize the methodology of the war-making ruling class. In other words — our future is an apocalyptic one.
CNN: Ayub Junaid, 6 years old, Gaza. Neurological condition. Specialized glasses - broken. Can't replace them. Surgery not available in Gaza. Displaced. Lost in a maze of tents
Israel agreed to evacuate 50 Gazan patients per day as part of the ceasefire. Average since October? Fewer than eight per day. Eight. Out of 50.
Every year the Westminster Treasury deducts a sum from Scotland’s block funding grant to pay for a share of the UK’s rising debt, none of which Scotland ran up. Since 2012.2013 the amount removed from Scotland budget is over 60Bn

This is so insanely corrupt, I can’t even believe it.
More than half the donors to Trump’s $400 million White House ballroom just won over $50 billion in new federal contracts in six months.
And here’s the part that should make your blood boil.
Sixteen of these 27 donors were facing federal enforcement actions, antitrust reviews, labor cases, securities charges. Many of those cases have been quietly dropped or scaled back since Trump took office. You write a check, your legal problems disappear. That’s not a coincidence.
The White House won’t even release the full donor list. They’re hiding it on purpose, because daylight is the one thing pay-to-play can’t survive. A federal judge already ruled ballroom construction has to stop until Congress authorizes it.
Government is supposed to serve the people, not auction itself off to the highest bidder. When access goes to whoever pays the most, working families always end up paying the price.
We either end the corruption, or the corruption will end us.

Elements in Britain’s pro-Israel lobby are worried about our campaign to investigate UK nationals who have served in the IDF.
So worried they’re resorting to ludicrous anti-semitism smears.
It’s not going to work. Pls add your name to our petition:

Great to be in the Strait of Hormuz today where Iran now has leverage to put an end to unfair treatment by Western Powers. Iran has to maintain control of the Strait of Hormuz or the US + Israel will continue bombing them whenever they feel like it...
A complaint has been lodged with the BBC after James Cook claimed the SNP's auditors resigning was a warning sign that there was something awry with the party's finances.
The auditors confirmed the resignation had nothing to do with the party's finances or the police probe.
Thank you President 🇸🇮.
Palestine is the moral compass of our time.
From Spain to Slovenia there is hope for Europe. A Europe that puts people above banks and markets, rights above profits, and respects int'l law regardless of political calculus.
“It’s insane, we have a rogue US military contractor handling our most sensitive data. Palantir has a contract running our nuclear missile program. We have no national security.”
Palantir. IT'S WORSE Than You Think @carolecadwalla
Since the claimed ‘ceasefire’ in Gaza 🇵🇸
Israel 🇮🇱 has annexed 70% of Gaza 🇵🇸
Israel 🇮🇱 has murdered over 900 Palestinians
There is no ‘ceasefire’
It’s an apocalypse
It’s a land grab
It’s genocide
Expel 🇮🇱 from the UN now.
