In 1981, the PLO laid down its arms in Lebanon, scrupulously upheld a ceasefire for nearly a year, and offered to recognize Israel via a two-state settlement.

Israel responded with an unprovoked invasion, killing 15-20,000 Palestinians and Lebanese.

This 600MW AI data centre is proposed on scenic farmland by the village of Auchtertool, between Kircaldy and Cowdenbeath in Fife.

The size of the data centre enormous and as you can see from the maps, it dwarfs the neighbouring village of Auchertool.

It has been calculated that this data centre will use the same amount of energy in a year than half of Scotland’s households, or 20% of Scotland’s total energy use. So the energy use of Achtertool data centre when built will use in a year the same energy as 1.34 million households – or 53% of Scottish households.

There will now be a period of three to four weeks consultation period when the public can comment or object to the planning application. Here’s the online link to leave a comment:

@MerrynSW "Never let me go" (Ishuguro) but it's not uplifting. His Dark Materials (Pullman) if she hasn't seen the series.

@Keith28007295 For me it has plenty to do with it. Will not be giving Labour my vote.

@LetAlbaFlourish @VoteAshRegan Ah thanks. That makes sense

[hillsiderunner @hillsiderunner]

@VoteAshRegan Hello. Can you explain why your name is not here: https://t.co/KRTsOISIF0 (I am also confused that I see Eastern/Musselburgh/Tranent in some places, and just "Edinburgh East" on others)

[hillsiderunner @hillsiderunner]

@RichardBurgon Thanks for doing this Richard (at last). Will chase my MP @ChrisMurrayMP on this, though not entirely hopeful given past correspondence on this matter with him.

@DI313_ Would they not be better applying a blanket ban to US military? How are they going to check which planes hit specific sites once they transit to Middle East?

Who needs sanctions when you can have deep concerns?

[Joni Askola @joni_askola]

It is beyond pathetic to watch European jets actively shoot down drones in the Middle East while refusing to do the exact same thing over Ukraine.

We are willing to militarily defend airspace on another continent but let a European nation face genocide alone

@Jonathan_K_Cook *unbelievable*. Almost everything they ever say is a lie. Sack @bbclaurak @BBCNews

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

Dear UN Member States,

As I prepare to deliver my 8th report to the UN, I reiterate: Israel poses a threat to international peace and security.

I have documented its most egregious crimes. Now the obligation to act, and stop it, sparing innocent lives, rests with you.
