I just wrote to my new MP, asking them to pledge their support to #StopRosebank

For a safe climate and affordable energy, we need to stop expanding oil & gas production NOW.

Please write to your MP too. https://t.co/4t3iPMhnzB

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

URGENT! For any country where (from Italy to Thailand or Brazil) possible war criminals go on holiday and R&R. 🇮🇱 soldiers must be investigated, evidence assessed, and responsibility determined through DUE PROCESS.

This is not incitement to commit violence. It is accountability.

Israel deliberately targeted Palestinian children in its genocide.

That’s the findings of a latest UN commission.

Remember: if you oppose this abomination, you’re treated as a dangerous, hateful extremist

"A breast feeding baby was shot by a quad copter through the head"

Yesterday the UN commission of inquiry published a report detailing how Israel deliberately targets & kills Palestinian children

[Saul Staniforth @SaulStaniforth]

"The children you operated on, what did they tell you these quadcopters did?"

Nizam Mamode "One child who was 7, who described.. a bomb was dropped, he was knocked over by the blast.. he heard a drone above him, turned round, then it fired on him. We have many reports like that"

The media can obfuscate all they like, but this is Keir Starmer's epitaph:

Contender for the Darwin award?

[Andrew Bowie MP @AndrewBowie_MP]

"It is like banging your head against a brick wall"

That's what one of my constituents described trying to get this Labour government to understand the damage they are doing to the oil & gas industry. He was absolutely right.

Everyone else understands, why can't they? 🥀

Take action for the uncontacted Hongana Manyawa people! They could be completely wiped out by a massive Indonesian project to produce nickel for electric car batteries.

Powerful companies are involved. The Hongana Manyawa urgently need your support. https://t.co/qot3KhnfS9

[Paul Mather 🌍 @APMather]

Take action for the Shompen! They're one of the most isolated tribes on Earth and now at risk of being totally wiped out by a “mega-development” plan by the Indian gov to transform their small island home into the “Hong Kong of India.”

The uncontacted Mashco Piro people of Peru could be wiped out if their territory isn’t fully protected from logging!

I’ve asked @presidenciaperu to protect the territory and stop the logging - will you too?

[Amnesty UK @AmnestyUK]

Today's ruling by the Court of Appeal is deeply disappointing.

This case remains about much more than one group.

What’s important for all of us to understand is that proscription is one of the strongest powers the government has.

Treating protest as terrorism leaves the door wide open for governments to suppress other protest movements in the future.

We have long said that the banning of Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation is a grave misuse of counter-terrorism powers with serious consequences for human rights.

It is a huge overreach to treat direct action protest as terrorism.

Amnesty will continue to defend the freedoms that allow people to speak out and hold the powerful to account.

The last uncontacted tribe in South America outside the Amazon is holding out in an ever-shrinking island of forest, as bulldozers clearing land for cattle ranchers rapidly close in on them. Please email the Paraguayan authorities, urging them to act now. https://t.co/0A2ITMemfj

Israeli lawyer Ben Marmarelli says Palestinian prisoners he represents beg him not to visit because they're raped each time he is due to meet them.

This is a scene from Al Jazeera's shocking new documentary on Israel's systematic use of rape.

[Johan Rockström @jrockstrom]

New Anthropocene paper. Earth still operates in "Holocene logic", buffering heat imbalance. Anthropocene = Pressure. But, BAU, reaching 3°C in 2100 & we get "stuck" in a Hothouse trajectory for 1000 years. Anthropocene risks turning into a state. No Good.

Join me in writing to the Home Secretary to demand she takes action to stop the Great Israeli Real Estate Event 2026 from going ahead in London. This disgraceful event will involve the brazen sale of land stolen from Palestinians. https://t.co/GQcHSfITg0

If 9 Israelis had been burnt alive yesterday, they’d have called it a barbaric & savage antisemitic massacre.

When Israel burns alive 9 Palestinians to death, they call it a ceasefire.

[Paul Mather 🌍 @APMather]

After eviction and years of waiting, farmers in Bahia, #Brazil are restoring land with crops, trees, and rainforest. Their struggle is not over but their vision is clear. Support their petition. ✍️ #RainforestRescue #ActForRainforest https://t.co/d8D9rci7vS via @RainforestResq

[Mohammed El-Kurd @m7mdkurd]

What Israel is doing in Lebanon is unambiguously genocidal against Shias. And it is unambiguously an attempt to reoccupy and even annex a huge part of the country. It’s infuriating that we’re pretending that there’s a ceasefire. And even more infuriating that Western media continues to turn a blind eye to Israel’s endless colonial expansion and insatiable hunger for Arab land.
