“The drones would come down and pick off civilians – children.”
A former NHS surgeon, Nizam Mamode, who spent a month working in Nasser Hospital in southern Gaza, broke down while testifying about children in Gaza being shot by drones.
"a medical student.. described how the women had all been lined up & been told to strip.. made to stand for hours like that.. when they told her she could go they wouldn't give her a clothes back"
Professor Mamode on how the Israeli army humiliates healthcare workers in Gaza
"It's the equivalent of just putting a blockade around London, saying you can't leave, & then dropping bombs month after month, & then closing down all the healthcare facilities, that's what's happening"

Until my dying breath, I will fight for the imprisonment of every single Western leader who provided political cover, weapons and military intelligence to Israeli génocidaires.
Even as a politics lecturer in a Middle East department, I am lost.
Israel has a right to self defence, but Lebanon does not?
Israelis have the right to be safe, but Palestinians do not?
Iran can’t launch missiles into civilian areas, but Israel can?
None of this is coherent.
It is beyond belief that the government has still not ended arms sales to Israel.
What on earth are they waiting for?
This shameful cowardice must be called out for what it is: complicity in genocide.
🧵 about #class#privilege and #privateeducation. Watching the Olympic swimming last night and Clare Balding said something in such an incredulous tone which summed up the establishment perspective and how their experience differs. 1/
Spain’s Ione Belarra:
“Seeing the US Congress applauding a true terrorist, a child murderer like Netanyahu, gives me chills. That support is what allows him to do what he does. The US is as responsible as he is for the genocide.”

The next generation of nurses are considering walking away before they graduate - this is a tragedy.
The new Prime Minister must act urgently to turn around a failing NHS workforce plan.
We need government-funded degrees and proper maintenance support.

The Prime Minister is wrong. RCN members REJECTED last year's pay offer and are still in dispute. Worst still, they haven't even received an offer for this year, 3 months past the deadline.
Nursing staff need negotiations to restart immediately after the election. #SkyDebate
