US Sanctions? Hear the case, then decide for yourself.
You may disagree with my words, my findings, or my work as a UN independent expert altogether. That is legitimate.
But using sanctions against me for fulfilling a mandate is not debate about opinions: it is an abuse of power.

EDITORIAL: The far right thrives when the state leaves communities to rot. In Makerfield, Reform UK is pretending to be the voice of the people while protecting the same old interests.

We have to vote against the right on July 4th. This is not because we love the alternatives. It is a strategic choice to stop the rot before we can build something better.

The Times editorial is correct. The assisted suicide Bill is a shambles and is very defective. Its key sponsors, ultimately the Government, know this but are pressing on regardless.

Editorial: Assisted dying bill is shoddy and riddled with defects

It's time to end it and that time is now.

“The judge’s repeated description in their review of Elbit Systems producing weapons used in an active genocide as ‘lawful business’ and of Palestine Action as ‘violent’ for disrupting it says everything we already know about the British state.” @LindseyAGerman

Mientras la política de asfixia y guerra económica estadounidense se recrudece y persigue limitar al máximo la entrada de insumos al país, fundamentalmente los destinados a la salud; la ciencia cubana continúa diseñando y creando productos que nos brindan más bienestar y soberanía.

Ejemplo de ello es HEBERSaVax, un novedoso candidato vacunal terapéutico cubano, único de su tipo en el mundo, y con grandes potencialidades en el tratamiento de varios tipos de cáncer.

Preservar el derecho a la vida es tarea principal del Estado y Gobierno de #Cuba.

Frente a la política criminal imperialista, aquí respondemos con más determinación, resistencia, creación e independencia.

Environment Secretary Emma Reynolds has just blocked a deal letting Thames Water dump sewage illegally until 2030.

We were on BBC News this morning to explain what this means.

We don't want US hedge funds and Trump mega-donors playing fast and loose with the water supply for 16 million people.

107 MPs have signed our MPs’ letter asking Ofwat to drop the deal and take Thames Water into Special Administration.

Has your MP signed the letter? https://t.co/7wSUOUPGvF

The first woman in space wasn’t a billionaire.

She was a Soviet textile worker.

The Soviet Union looked at a factory worker and saw a future cosmonaut.

Not even 24 hours since the ceasefire deal was signed.

And Ben-Gvir is already demanding:

'We must continue destroying houses in southern Lebanon. Continue pushing residents away. Continue eliminating Hezbollah'

🚨 WOW! Absolute chaos in Geneva as massive anti-G7 protests turn into full-blown riots. Demonstrators are actively targeting elite capitalism.

They literally set a Tesla on fire and smashed UN agency windows. The establishment is terrified as citizens rise up!

Lebanon files formal complaint with UN over Israel's use of cancerous herbicide, violating Chemical Weapons Convention
——
Lebanon has filed a formal complaint with the UN Security Council accusing the Israeli military of carrying out a chemical warfare campaign targeting agricultural lands near the Blue Line, Lebanon's Foreign Ministry confirmed. The diplomatic escalation follows a February aerial operation where Israeli aircraft sprayed southern Lebanese border villages, including Aita al-Shaab, with extreme concentrations of the toxic weedkiller glyphosate.

Laboratory analysis of soil and plant samples from the targeted zones revealed chemical concentrations reaching a staggering 22,750 micrograms per gram—more than 11,000 times the standard levels used in conventional farming.

The Lebanese government explicitly categorized the border spraying as a deliberate war crime intended to systematically poison the environment, destroy local livelihoods, and render entire border communities uninhabitable. The complaint states that the deployment of high-density toxins constitutes a flagrant breach of international humanitarian law and the Chemical Weapons Convention.

UN officials have voiced serious alarms over the long-term impact of the chemical assault, confirming that the operation threatens the health of civilians, risks permanently ruining vital farmland, and violates UN Resolution 1701.

Pearson Engineering is the UK subsidiary of Rafael, a weapons firm owned by the Israeli government.

Their director is John Hutton, a Labour Party peer.

The Israeli military used a Rafael spike missile to obliterate three British citizens working for World Central Kitchen.

The difference between Palestine Action the suffragettes is that the Suffragettes made and used bombs.

Palestine Action sought to disable arms factories producing weapons used by Israel in its genocide of Gaza.

Curiously, the suffragettes described THEMSELVES as terrorists. Pankhurst stated that the suffragettes committed violent acts because they wanted to "terrorise the British public"
