The UK Govt has still NOT imposed a total trade ban on what it accepts are Israel’s illegal settlements?

Please RT this until they do.

Thank you.

18,000 properties without water in the middle of an extremely hot week is incredibly dangerous.

We already knew that @sewateruk were abysmal but this is outrageous.

Water is too important to be run like this. Unacceptable.

The planet is burning. Energy prices are rising. The job market is under threat, and it’s never been harder for young people to get a job. But there is money for billionaires' mad projects. Nothing can justify this.

Yesterday Israel ordered the inhabitants of Nabiteh to leave (population of 100,000) They then ordered the inhabitants of Tyre to leave (pop of 200,000). Now they've ordered the entire south to leave - up to 300 towns & villages.

Amazing how Tucker Carlson, of all people, can succinctly sum up what happened with Jeremy Corbyn in a way that the media and political class here will still ardently deny

Metro Bank investors urged to reject executive pay report.

Bonus scheme could hand CEO a £60m windfall.

All approved by lackey non-execs and remuneration committee.

Employees/customer vote can check out of control exec pay, secure fairer outcomes.

Tony Blair thinks the answer to this country’s problems is AI, welfare cuts and endless spending on war.

Who benefits? Arms companies and tech billionaires.

Once again, Blair is wrong. The answer is a redistribution of wealth and power and the relentless search for peace.

[Richard Murphy @RichardJMurphy]

Pope Leo is right. We cannot allow a cabal of oligarchs to use AI to enrich themselves through war and exploitation. Society has to be in charge.

Tony Blair is personally responsible for much of the breakdown of trust in politics, years of instability in the Middle East and the deaths of hundreds of thousands in an illegal war.

It’s no wonder he is so keen to cosy up to Donald Trump.

£325bn dirty money flows through UK. Jumps to £788bn+ when UK tax havens added.

Linked to financial crime, corruption, illegal trades, narcotics, and tax dodging.

Banks, accountants, lawyers profit.

Govt deregulating finance industry, prosecutions rare.

@Ed_Miliband @LaindonFEMINIST When are you going to decouple electricity and gas prices?

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

No matter what deal they do, the war has effectively given control of the Strait to Iran.

What a masterclass in incompetence by Trump and his team.

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

Surely he was asked about this the last time he was on a major BBC programme? No??? Why not?

[Jon Harding @_i0n]

It's the hottest May on record, and the government talk about air-conditioning, while our mature trees are cut down, and our public fountains are taken away.
The government is controlled by the corporations who cause and profit from climate change, and do nothing for the people.

Hold up… spraying toxic GLYPHOSATE is bad… but spraying it on peoples private property and into front gardens without permission. WTF. @SheffCouncil 🤬

Robert Jenrick under investigation by Metropolitan Police re possible illegal foreign donation for failed Tory leadership bid.
Jenrick’s wife Michal Berkner lawyer for the donor, was warned the £40k actually came from a US fraudster. Where's the noise?

Obama stock trades as president: 0.

Biden stock trades as president: 0.

Trump stock trades in Q1 2026 alone: 3,600+.

When do we all just admit he is a grifter and half of the American population got tricked into thinking he'd help anyone but himself and his inner circle?

Man who worked for Murdoch bemoans interference.

As Ash said, "If you want to isolate one person in particular who is most responsible for this degradation of the public sphere, it is Rupert Murdoch"
