The UK must end all support for Israel's genocide, military occupation and apartheid. Use @PSCupdates online action to ask your MP to sign EDM 221, which calls for sanctions on Israel: https://t.co/nwtnyVhUDU
Please do everything you can to stop this. We Israelis whom oppose Netanyahu’s regime cannot stop this from within. There is no formal opposition.
Help.
Please share.

Continued inaction & backtracking from @scotgov means that Scotland’s cultural landscape is at risk of collapse.
It's repeatedly promised to address arts underfunding, pledging “at least £100M more annually” by 2028-9: just 0.17% of current budget.

🚨🏴 Scotland’s cultural landscape is at risk of collapse.
Vital support for freelance artists has been shut down and core funding for nearly 300 organisations hangs in the balance.
Please sign our new petition to urge the Scottish Government to act now.

A good time to let the Scottish Government know the importance of cultural activity. Survey deadline 29 July.
Gov needs to value culture with sustained financial support over platitudes. The sector can’t cope on ‘stand still’ funding let alone cut budgets.
What matters to you when accessing culture? Do you face any challenges or barriers?
We're encouraging our followers to take part in @scotgov Cultural Engagement in Scotland survey to ensure the voice of the sector is heard loud + clear
Deadline 29 July: https://t.co/hD96Q3xEoD

Baillie Gifford’s PR team must be rubbing their hands w/ glee after pulling-off a nifty exit from festivals w/out answering a single question. Climate justice and human rights campaigners have been thrown under the bus while Baillie Gifford slink away.

BREAKING:
The media won’t tell you this but Israel just killed 150 Palestinians in Nuseirat refugee camp today.
150.
Mostly women and children.
This is a massacre.
Israel is committing the worst crimes in modern history, and Western regimes are calling it “self-defense”.
