@ExploringSlo So beautiful - been up there a couple of times although not all the way to the top

@ExploringSlo Magical

@RestPoliticsUS @KattyKay_ @ScarboroughNow With all due respect, @ScarboroughNow please don’t refer to such an odious tyrannical leader as the Trumplet as going “full Clement Attlee” who was a great, respected Labour leader and brought in the National Health Service

@RestIsPolitics @campbellclaret @RoryStewartUK Such an impressive politician and person - thank you for giving Ms Frostadóttir an opportunity to reach a wider audience / awareness

[David Thomas @dcshifty]

@RestIsPolitics @RoryStewartUK @campbellclaret I hadn’t heard about St Mungos (I no longer live in the UK), but I’ve donated to the organisation after listening to this episode - thank you for showcasing their excellent work

[David Thomas @dcshifty]

@RestPoliticsUS Such an insightful episode on the Trumplet’s failings and the root causes of America’s forever wars

[David Thomas @dcshifty]

@EmpirePodUK This is such a fascinating and important series, amongst many others you have done. Listening should be part of the national curriculum 🥰

@ExploringSlo Such beautiful landscapes; I never cease to be amazed by the colour and clarity of the water

@RestIsPolitics @mehdirhasan Loved having @mehdirhasan co-hosting and calling out Starmer over Gaza amongst other things

@ExploringSlo Spectacular

@RestIsPolitics so, 4.5 years on, the EU is spending billions to help Ukraine while still buying billions of Russian fossil fuels to attack Ukraine… madness

@AlisonFisk Beautiful photo

@RestIsPolitics I’m very anti Liberal, but Mr Turnbull is one of the few of that persuasion who is worth listening to. A good interview containing a lot of sense…

[David Thomas @dcshifty]

@RestPoliticsUS @KattyKay_ @Scaramucci @Scaramucci details why he is pro Israeli - fair enough. But Palestinians have suffered dispossession expulsion genocide and lost hopes and dreams too. Why aren’t you pro Palestinian? Their children deserve safety childhood and futures too

[David Thomas @dcshifty]

@RestIsPolitics @RoryStewartUK @campbellclaret Important correction - energy prices didn’t soar because of Ukraine’s war; it’s Russia’s war against Ukraine

Find time to read this quite astonishingly good piece by
@ArwaM Mahdawi. Brilliant on our government's appalling moral confusion over Gaza

"Why is Hasan Piker ‘not conducive to the public good’? Because on Gaza, we punish the witness, not the crime"

Today is Nakba Day. You cannot understand what lies at the heart of conflict in the Middle East unless you understand what happened to 85% of Palestinians in 1948. Here Eugene Rogan explains how hundreds of thousands of refugees ended up homeless in Gaza

@RestIsPolitics if you complain about how much free publicity Farage gets from the BBC, don’t put his mug on your latest episode cover…
