Israel is shooting and killing civilians returning to their homes in Nabatieh, South Lebanon.

Read that again.

Invading Israeli soldiers are opening fire on Lebanese residents on Lebanese soil.

There is no “ceasefire” when civilians are being shot for going home.

This man just overthrew the Prime Minister.

But did you know that two weeks before Andy Burnham's by-election victory, Labour Together received a £125,000 donation?

Their former director, Josh Simons, is in line for a top job at No. 10.

The Burnham-Simons coup is underway:🧵

The great Israel Parliamentary debate stitch up

I've just totaled up the amount of time each side had to speak during the parliamentary debate yesterday on Israeli influence over UK politics.

The pro-Israel side had 1 hour and 9 minutes to put forward their pro-Israel views.

The anti-Israel side had 15 minutes only to put forward their anti-Israel views.

So in effect, the pro-Israel side had 82% of the speaking time during the debate, and the anti-Israel side had 18% speaking time.

This wasn't a debate, it was a forum for Israeli hasbara and propaganda.

And it proves exactly why 117,000 people signed a petition questioning Israel's influence over UK politicians.

A highly respected barrister who worked on the era-defining Stephen Lawrence, Hillsborough and Grenfell cases is now being hounded by a judge for mounting a legal defence of four activists who targeted an Israeli drone factory.

Stop and digest this…

I know it’s relentless and heartbreaking

But don’t just scroll past.

Labour being broke in 2019 is so obviously a lie it starts to become funny.

Another untruth that the media didn’t just fail to challenge, but repeated wholesale, from 2020-2024.

He started, and leaves, as a compulsive liar.

“I received direct threats targeting me on my phone from the Mossad, from the Israelis, and they threatened to kill me.”

A free press is one thing, but a billionaire-owned right-wing yellow press is quite another.

All newspapers should be public interest organizations, not propaganda arms.

now you know why governments around the world are trying to bring in digital id and social media bans.

What if I told you one study in Manchester found that shade from street trees reduced surface temperatures by an average of 12°C, and concrete surfaces shaded permanently by a bank of trees were cooled by up to 20°C during a heatwave?

You might not believe me. But it's true…👇

Project Crimson Thread is about to seal the fate of the Jordan Valley, cutting it off from the rest of the West Bank.

This may be the most important development happening in the region right now, and it is flying completely under the radar.

[The Fraud @StarmertheFraud]

There are many reasons why Starmer failed (and why he deserved to), but this is one: his leadership was born from a project run, endorsed and shaped by the most scandalous and despicable Labour figures in a generation.

He says “up the RA” for £86

…imagine what he’d do for £5m.

* Judge Jeremy Johnson had to rig two jury trials before he secured a criminal conviction for damage against four activists who targeted an Israeli drone factory in the UK.

* Johnson did not tell the jury he was going to sentence the four as terrorists – the first time such an "upgrade" has happened in British history.

* This week he's referred their defence barrister for contempt of court proceedings for a second time – again a British legal history first – even though the Court of Appeal rejected his previous application.

But hey, the government, police and courts' treatment of Palestine Action – the first direct action group ever to be proscribed as a terrorist organisation in British history – has been completely normal.

Britain will never look like this again because business rates/rent & Brexit's import duty are far too high to make a greengrocer's profitable, plus that pond is now full of shit for maximum water company profits, and lastly, Thatcher helped sell off all of our car manufacturing.

Speaking as someone who was an NHS doctor during Jeremy Hunt’s entire tenure as Health Secretary, I have absolutely no interest in what he has to say about the NHS. And I don’t understand why the Guardian is, either: https://t.co/Jwhi9dH3ha

Everywhere Starmer goes, this happens

Stay vigilant

It is vital the documents containing the full story of his government's participation in the Gaza genocide are preserved

Gaza is one of worst British state crimes ever - and there's a long, long list
