❤️🇮🇷 The Iranian delegation thanked Mexico for all the love and hospitality they received during the World Cup. 🤝🏼
“We suffered many injustices because of your neighbors to the north, but you made us feel supported. Our doors will always be open to you.”
Since we’re back on this subject, another reminder:
No Palestinian journalist has ever been filmed literally blowing up civilian homes while on the job. Can’t say the same for Israeli journalists.
BREAKING: Craig Williams, who was parliamentary private secretary to Rishi Sunak, has pleaded guilty at Southwark Crown Court to cheating at gambling with bets on the date of the 2024 general election.
🚨 BREAKING:
🇸🇦🇮🇱 Saudi Foreign Minister to Israel:
"You cut aid to Gaza and bomb them, yet claim they leave willingly!
There is no 'voluntary migration' for Gaza's residents. Any scenario where they leave is a clear forced displacement. This attempt is firmly rejected!"
Today I asked the Government why taxpayers are subsidising poverty pay.
The DWP says 1.2 million people are working full-time but still rely on Universal Credit because their wages are too low.
I asked whether large employers will be required to report how many of their workers need Universal Credit.
Work should pay enough to live on. No one working full time should go hungry.

Trevor Noah called out the double standard: African and Middle Eastern teams get grilled about their governments-while European and American players never do.
Iranian players had to fly to every match. Searched at customs. Interrogated in press conferences. Asked about the Strait of Hormuz-not football.
This week, I'm leading a Parliamentary debate on banning MPs' second jobs.
Nigel Farage has already taken over £1 Million from second jobs since becoming an MP.
I've invited him to attend the debate to explain why MPs should be allowed to rake in vast sums from second jobs.
Fatima, a beloved teacher in Luxembourg, was fired for speaking out against the kiIIing of children in Gaza.
Her students and their families organized a peaceful demonstration demanding justice and her immediate return to the classroom. ✊
Holy shit.
Maradona in 2018 on the day the World Cup 2026 was awarded to USA, Mexico and Canada, goes on saying:
“They will do 4 quarters of the game instead of two halves so to put commercials, you’ll see”
So i found out my husband has been telling his coworkers that he's lactose intolerant. He's not. He just doesn't want to participate in the office ice cream socials because he thinks they're "forced fun." Been doing this for THREE YEARS. His company just spent $4,000 installing a dedicated dairy-free freezer in the break room. There's a ribbon cutting ceremony next week. The CEO is coming. They're naming it after my husband. "Dave's Inclusive Freezer Initiative" is going to be used as a case study in their diversity training. My husband is spiraling. He's in too deep. I told him to come clean. He's considering just becoming actually lactose intolerant through sheer force of will.
Honestly, Covid made us realize that the people who stock grocery stores, drive trucks, farm, and work in hospitals are actually the ones actually holding civilisation together. If bankers, CEOs, billionaires, and entrepreneurs stopped working, the world would barely notice.
