A country that has nuclear weapons is threatening to use its nuclear weapons on the country it won’t allow to have nuclear weapons because if they had nuclear weapons they would ‘use them.’

Congratulations to @ZohranKMamdani!

You ignited a grassroots campaign, built on the radical idea that everyone deserves to live in dignity.

This is a seismic victory — not only for the people of New York, but for all those who believe that humanity & hope can prevail.

I don't understand how a person who is a wanted ICC fugitive is allowed to address the United Nations

BREAKING: Palestinian education ministry confirms the death of Sufian Tayeh in an airstrike, he was director of the biggest university in Gaza and had been appointed UNESCO chairperson in astronomy, astrophysics and space sciences in the Palestinian Territories.

This testimony from Paul Ley, a doctor at the European Hospital in Khan Yunis, Gaza, is absolutely sickening:

“I have worked in hospitals in Afghanistan, Uganda, Ethiopia, Sierra Leone, Sudan, Cambodia... but I have never operated on so many injured children as I am now in the Gaza Strip. In the burns unit of the European Hospital we now have 78 patients, nearly two-fifths of them children under five. I have never seen anything like it. I have been in many war contexts where the type of wounds are the same but the number is huge. We never leave the hospital. We work round the clock. We do operations with minimal anaesthesia. If we run out, we can’t operate but there is no clear line. There are a lot of people crying, screaming with pain, but we don’t have enough analgesics. We keep them for the kids or very severe cases. Normally we would change dressings on patients with 40% burns with them under sedation and minimise the time by using more attendants... Now it has to be done with a lot of pain. We try to keep our heads cool and steady, but for local staff this is their families, friends, their people. They never want to amputate. They say: ‘I can’t do it any more’ and so I say: ‘OK I will do it, don’t worry,’ and you can feel the relief”.

HS2, a train that travels only 120 miles on Earth, was more expensive than the International Space Station which took 10 years and 15 countries to build.

In Space.

The Metropolitan Police say there has been "no issues" with the protest for Palestine, which was repeatedly called a "hate march" by Suella Braverman.

Meanwhile hundreds of far right thugs are "intent on confrontation" and violence against the main march

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

The population of Gaza is about 2 million. Nearly half are children.

Millions of innocent people cannot be made to pay for Hamas’ horror.

Collective punishment is a war crime. So are blockades to food and water.

We cannot allow dehumanization to descend into further atrocity.

Word of the day is ‘mumpsimuses’ (16th century): those who insist they are right and apportion blame to others without looking at themselves.

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

It's awful to see people responding to this thread by blaming either staff or patients for what is happening to the NHS. In other words, repeating the falsehoods spread by the government and the billionaire press. Don't you realise what they are doing? They *want* it to fail.

[Chris Bryant @RhonddaBryant]

So far this is the most embarrassing budget statement I have heard in 20 years in the House. Sunak keeps on calling every announcement ‘the biggest sum in a decade’ thereby exposing the fact that the Tories have starved every element of the public sector every year since 2010.

In the 1960s humans going to space felt like a collective endeavour. Something that advanced the whole of humankind. Billionaires going to space in 2021 just feels like first class passengers on the Titanic hogging the lifeboats.
