2 years ago we were told that it wouldn't be possible to get a Climate Change Bill passed this mandate so we started to explore the PMB route. ⛔️

What we have now is one of the most significant bills to ever come out of @niassembly

Theres more to do but today we celebrate! 🥳🍾

“If Israel can’t do the job without killing everyone else, he’ll do the job.”

➤ President Donald Trump criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during the G7 summit in Évian-les-Bains, France, saying Israel has been fighting Hezbollah “too long” and suggesting Syria could do a better job containing the armed resistance group.

➤ Trump expressed frustration over Israel’s recent airstrikes in Lebanon, warning they were causing excessive civilian casualties. He described the recent retaliatory strike on Beirut as “vicious” and “too much.”

➤ While saying he has historically had a good relationship with Netanyahu, Trump added that “Bibi has to be more responsible with respect to Lebanon.”

➤ Stressing Washington’s leverage, Trump declared: “Without the United States, there would be no Israel. Without me, there would be no Israel, because no other president was willing to do what I did.”

Israel is torturing a doctor to punish him for refusing to leave his town, hospital and patients - and it’s fully sanctioned by the courts

Germany's bid for a non-permanent seat on the UN Security Council ends in crushing failure

After Germany's reactions to events in Gaza, Venezuela, Lebanon and Iran, no one could believe that "its utmost priority will be respect for the rules of international law", if elected

“Increase control.”

BBC is beyond parody at this stage.

[Cenk Uygur @cenkuygur]

I’ve been banned from the UK. I tried to get on a flight to London to attend SXSW London and give a speech at Oxford. I’ve been banned for criticizing Israel. Are we free anymore? This is oppression of Western citizens by our own governments on behalf of a different country!

[Declassified UK @declassifiedUK]

The UK has barred Hasan Piker and Cenk Uygur from entering the country, with both saying it's in response to their criticism of Israel.

Yet Brits who have fought for the IDF can return home without any investigation.

Our campaign seeks to change that:

[Lewis Goodall @lewis_goodall]

This is counter-productive, authoritarian and chilling. The British state should not be in the business of banning commentators and journalists from entering the country, without compelling reason. Finding their views objectionable is nowhere near enough.

☀️ SIGNS OF POTENTIAL WARMER AND DRIER WEATHER MID JUNE AGAIN🌡️

There are some early signs that around the middle of June, we may experience warmer and drier weather again as higher pressure begins to build. The next two weeks are expected to be a bit unsettled before we see this possible change.

I'll keep an eye on this over the next week and will update you if my confidence in these trends continues to grow.

The data I’m using comes from a combination of the ECMWF and GFS models, focusing on their longer outlook trends.

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.

[Declassified UK @declassifiedUK]

The UK again condemns Israeli settlements while it:

❌refuses to ban trade with them
❌keeps military accord w/Israel
❌keeps trade & partnership accord
❌continues arms exports
❌refuses to mention Israeli nukes
❌refuses to respond to ICJ ruling on OPTs https://t.co/2UkE0LIxOH
