An Israeli human rights lawyer interrupts her own Al Jazeera interview for a tearful plea condemning Israel’s war on Gaza and Israelis attacking aid trucks headed for Gaza.
Dear 🇬🇧,
In 2024, it’s time to pick a side. Either you stand with a corrupt govt engineering the collapse of your health system, or you're with NHS workers as we fight back against the greatest assault on the NHS in its 75 years. I know exactly where I stand. Do you?

After watching US Ambassador to the UN Robert Wood raise his hand in support of Israel's genocide, I was reminded of a fine passage in W. E. B. Du Bois' biography of John Brown.
We say to the UK, American and Israeli governments: Enough!
Enough of the bombardment!
Enough of the siege!
Enough of the occupation!
We won’t rest until we have justice.
Until all people, Israelis & Palestinians, between the river & the sea can live in peaceful liberty.
Unfit for office.
How can you be Attorney General if you don't support international law? I know the office has been debased by Goldsmith and Braverman (among others) but you don't have to keep the bar low.
(great interviewing by @vicderbyshire too)
The UK government’s decision to approve Rosebank displays shameful disregard for future generations.
Some want to “give investors certainty”, but how much certainty will investors have on a burning planet?
#StopRosebank and invest in renewables instead!
Great Manchester Police thought it was acceptable to pull over our coach as we travelled from London to Manchester to protest the Conservative Party Conference
Heavy handed police presence to try and intimidate peaceful protesters

"I don't mean to deny a feeling of solitude. It is there, reinforced by the fact that radio contact with the Earth abruptly cuts off at the instant I disappear behind the moon, I am alone now, truly alone, and absolutely isolated from any known life. I am it.
If a count were taken, the score would be three billion plus two over on the other side of the moon, and one plus God knows what on this side."
