Alex Karp: "I am the most publicly supportive CEO of Israel. Israel is on the side of good."
Cool. You're also the most publicly complicit CEO of a genocide.
When Sir Jon Cunliffe helped the government @Defra carry out a fake independent review of itself, he relied on water company bosses (who break the law and dodge regulation for a living) to tell him how to make that regulation more attractive to them..
And he did!
But will we all be stupid enough to let that be made law? @WCL_News@foeeurope@GreenpeaceUK
The newest regulation cannot even control water bosses bonuses, let alone the privatised gravy train.
There is no way regulation can control private equity running a monopoly.
But Gov is frozen with fear so the public will have to sort this dangerous mess out

UK police have stopped enforcing Keir Starmer’s insane proscription of Palestine Action
People power has defeated the state
Inspiration for us all going forward
Avustralyalı oyuncu Guy Pearce:
-Hayatımda İsrailliler kadar hiçbir milletten bu kadar tiksinmedim.
-Her gün Filistinlilerin hayatlarına karşı kayıtsızlık ve küçümsemelerine bizzat tanıklık ediyorum.
Nearly 10,000 Palestinian detainees are held in Israeli prisons—most without trial—including hundreds of children, doctors, and academics. They are subjected to the most brutal forms of torture, and no one in the world speaks about them.
Be their voice.
And as if by magic now @Keir_Starmer is standing down the MSM are finally going after Farage in a significant way. How long have they been sitting on these stories.
Farage is corrupt and so is much of our media.
Reporter Nate Halverson took to the sky to get an aerial view of forestlands sprayed with the world's most controversial herbicide, glyphosate.
The imagery from above was startling, as the extent of the barren land sprayed with glyphosate became apparent.
The practice of spraying glyphosate—AKA Roundup—in the woods is now the fastest-growing market for the world's most widely used herbicide, according to 5 million state records analyzed by Mother Jones.
An April investigation by Halverson that revealed the extent of the spraying has sparked a national debate over the practice and elicited pointed questions from members of Congress overseeing the Forest Service, leading some to call for an end to spraying in sensitive forestlands.
The World Health Organization has called glyphosate a probable carcinogen, and the EPA has said it likely harms 93 percent of endangered species and is especially detrimental in areas like forests.
The manufacturer Bayer says it is safe when used as directed.
The United States Forest Service and timber companies say they use the controversial herbicide to reforest land that has burned in wildfires or been harvested by loggers. These foresters believe that by killing all other plant life, they help trees regrow faster by reducing competition for sunlight, water and soil nutrients.
Record amounts of it have now been sprayed across the forest, according to state pesticide reports. In Lassen National Forest, the federal government plans to spray about 10,000 acres with the herbicide. Halverson flew over the area to see both the land planned for spraying and the private timberland where extensive spraying has already taken place within and surrounding the national forest.
Sierra Pacific Industries, a timber company, is the second-largest user of glyphosate in California, according to state records analyzed by Mother Jones.
BREAKING: WE LOVE IT! Members of the European Parliament travel to Albania to investigate Jared Kushner's corrupt resort deal — and deliver a stunning warning about the "Trump clan."
This deal is really circling the drain now...
“If [Prime Minister Edi] Rama is really serious about his EU ambitions, he should step back from this trajectory and say to the Trump clan, ‘sorry, the EU is my first priority’,” said Dutch MEP Tineke Strik, head of a fact-finding delegation sent to Albania for four days.
“Right now, they’re endangering a process that is so dear to them … They’re playing with fire," Strik added.
The EU has warned Albania that Kushner's plans for a $1.4 billion development on the island of Sazan and a $4.7 billion project along the protected Zvërnec coastline could endanger the nation's entry into the Union because the plans run afoul of environmental regulations. Protected wildlife, including flamingos, inhabit the earmarked coastline.
This entire saga boils down to environmental protection for the public good against crooked private profits.
The people of Albania stand in staunch opposition to Kushner's plutocratic designs and have repeatedly taken to the streets en masse in recent months to protest. The widespread upheaval has been nicknamed "The Flamingo Revolution."
As it turns out, Albania isn't too enthused about the idea of Kushner and his wife Ivanka building a proverbial playground for the pedophiles, war criminals, and money launderers of the Epstein Class.
Meanwhile, 92% of Albanian citizens support joining the EU. Rama has defended Kushner's deal in the past, but now he's being forced to choose between the incredibly popular EU integration and the incredibly unpopular resort.
“If they go ahead, they’ll have a big problem with the EU during the negotiations – especially on Chapter 27 where they have to meet all the benchmarks of EU environmental policies," said Strik. "The planned construction of such large-scale real estate in such a fragile area is an immense threat.”
She added that the work that has already been completed in Zvërnec has inflicted massive environmental damage, with forests being destroyed and gravel road being paved over previously pristine ground.
Strik's delegation was "encouraged and reassured by the Albanian people" because working people are taking to the streets to defend the values that the EU holds dear. At the same time, Strik is concerned by the government's continued stonewalling on the issue and allegations of corruption.
“I left today’s meeting with the impression that they intend to continue with this project before they have to be aligned with EU law and this, of course, is not a way of loyal cooperation,” she said. “They cannot say now ‘we can do more damage and then we’ll see at the end of next year where we stand’. That’s not a way to go and we will call upon the EU commission to follow this up very strongly with the Albanian government.”
“Albanians are protesting every day because they want to have a proper democracy, which really strengthens my trust in the process and in their desire for accession," said Strik. "What I am not so sure about is whether the government of Albania is taking at all seriously the concerns of the Albanian people, of us [MEPs] and the European Commission – which is why I have called on it to change course and take its citizens seriously.”
These Albanian politicians now have a choice. They can either side with their people and stand up to Kushner, or they can flush their futures away on behalf of the world's worst family.
Please ❤️ and share if you stand with the proud Albanian people!
British Museum colludes with pro-Israel lobby to erase Palestine from historical exhibits
——
An investigation by Middle East Eye has exposed the British Museum for covertly removing the terms “Palestine,” “Palestinian,” and “Israeli occupation” from its historical displays following intensive lobbying by pro-Israel activists. Internal emails obtained via a freedom of information request reveal that the London institution rapidly altered descriptions of artifacts dating back to 7,500 BCE to appease political pressure groups, including the Board of Deputies of British Jews and high-profile figures.
While museum director Nick Cullinan publicly claimed the changes were part of a standard curation refresh and backed by audience testing, the newly released disclosures confirm that no visitor research regarding the term "Palestine" was ever conducted.
The internal correspondence details a frantic effort by museum staff to pacify complaints lodged between October and December 2024, with one directive explicitly ordering curators to remain hyper-conscious of the anniversary of 7 October. In one instance, a panel describing ancient rulers of “Palestinian descent” was scrubbed and changed to “Canaanite origin” within five hours of receiving a complaint from the Board of Deputies.
Middle East Eye cross-referenced the redacted emails to identify key lobbyists, including right-wing commentators and historians who weaponized access to the museum's leadership to argue that historical references to an ancient Israelite occupation would stoke modern antisemitism.
The targeted erasure has sparked a severe diplomatic and cultural backlash, with Palestinian Ambassador to the UK Husam Zumlot accusing the public institution of betraying its historical integrity to serve political ends. Cultural figures and human rights defenders have condemned the museum for complicity in what the United Nations classifies as an ongoing genocide in Gaza, noting that the bureaucratic deletion of Palestinian history in London directly mirrors the physical destruction of heritage sites on the ground.
Despite photographic evidence showing that references to "modern Palestine" were replaced with "Gaza and the West Bank" at gallery entrances, the British Museum has refused to answer specific inquiries, issuing a blanket denial to Middle East Eye that any erasure took place.
The question is, which Labour Party? The overwhelming majority of Labour Party members yes. But as Gaza was being reduced to rubble, the leadership refused to call for a ceasefire, & the Labour Party machine suspended & then blocked MP candidates and councillors who spoke out.
