@TomGeorgeMEN @MENnewsdesk Can you stop putting images of the location on the internet? You are kind of endangering people, especially when you could easily just say, nothing is happening. You're showing people's houses and businesses around the area.
Don't hate on the people needing our help & support. Hate on the politicians who are diverting your anger onto others to detract from the fact they are getting richer and causing division amongst us mere mortals.
@florubyread have you heard of the @WorkersPartyGB sounds like you would be more comfortable there than the greens, home of the anti-war anti-woke left
👉NEW -- 60 British war planes have landed in Israel since Gaza bombing began
by @kennardmatt
Dozens of military transport aircraft have flown to Tel Aviv but the UK government refuses to give full details of what they have onboard.

Impunity for Israel; impunity for Israel’s defenders
Ahead of the ceasefire vote, Starmer consulted with the Genocidaire Israeli President Herzog

Yep. I'm still amazed all three of our kids chose to gestate inside me, because I thought it was 50/50 they'd come to term inside one of Neil's testicles. By coincidence, my father never gave birth out of his balls, either. Random luck or ancestral curse? I doubt we'll ever know.
Again with the legacy guff... if your friend History thinks women don't deserve sex-based rights, healthy kids should be medicalised and free speech needs stamping out, I'm not interested in being his buddy. He sounds a massive dick.
@JuliaHB1@IDF So that other foreign aid workers will not come, as they know they are a target. Don't pretend to be naive. You know this was on purpose.
Starmer is a member of Labour Friends of Israel.
Hence we get “thoughts and prayers" on Twitter while war crimes and even the death of UK nationals go unanswered.
Israel is laughing at us (and they’re right to) because we are led by weak saps like this man.
So if trans-identified men are pretty enough (as judged by you, a man) women ought to agree they're women?
Femaleness has no relation whatsoever to how well an individual - man or woman - performs femininity to male standards. This is the very definition of misogyny.
An out-of-control Israel, running amok, fanning the flames of generalised war in the Middle East, is given carte blanche by the Western media who are happy just to report that the Israeli gvt is 'investigating' its own atrocities. https://t.co/OxDuVPTnl0
Scotland's Hate Crime Act comes into effect today. Women gain no additional protections, of course, but well-known trans activist Beth Douglas, darling of prominent Scottish politicians, falls within a protected category. Phew! 1/11

Only kidding. Obviously, the people mentioned in the above tweets aren't women at all, but men, every last one of them.
In passing the Scottish Hate Crime Act, Scottish lawmakers seem to have placed higher value on the feelings of men performing their idea of femaleness, however misogynistically or opportunistically, than on the rights and freedoms of actual women and girls. The new legislation is wide open to abuse by activists who wish to silence those of us speaking out about the dangers of eliminating women's and girls’ single-sex spaces, the nonsense made of crime data if violent and sexual assaults committed by men are recorded as female crimes, the grotesque unfairness of allowing males to compete in female sports, the injustice of women’s jobs, honours and opportunities being taken by trans-identified men, and the reality and immutability of biological sex.
For several years now, Scottish women have been pressured by their government and members of the police force to deny the evidence of their eyes and ears, repudiate biological facts and embrace a neo-religious concept of gender that is unprovable and untestable. The re-definition of 'woman' to include every man who declares himself one has already had serious consequences for women's and girls’ rights and safety in Scotland, with the strongest impact felt, as ever, by the most vulnerable, including female prisoners and rape survivors.
It is impossible to accurately describe or tackle the reality of violence and sexual violence committed against women and girls, or address the current assault on women’s and girls’ rights, unless we are allowed to call a man a man. Freedom of speech and belief are at an end in Scotland if the accurate description of biological sex is deemed criminal.
I'm currently out of the country, but if what I've written here qualifies as an offence under the terms of the new act, I look forward to being arrested when I return to the birthplace of the Scottish Enlightenment.

This is a former director of Labour Friends of Israel.
He’s now a spokesperson for Israel’s far right government as it commits genocide, up to and including slaughtering British aid workers.
Nothing more to be said really, is there.
This morning began with the revelation of Israel’s gruesome Shifa Hospital massacre.
A few hours later, Israel bombed a diplomatic compound - an embassy - in Syria.
Tonight it has murdered several foreign aid workers in an airstrike on their car in Gaza.
Note the applause at the UNSC after the Gaza ceasefire resolution passed
This is extremely uncommon
Last time this happened was when de Villepin gave a historic speech against the Iraq war in 2003
It reflects the immense exasperation with Biden's efforts to keep the war going
.@AyoCaesar: "What Keir Starmer has shown is that he willing to backtrack and scrap his pledges when he comes under even the most miniscule amount of pressure..."
Chris Bryant: "He's pragmatic. Quite right too"
"Thats a nice way of saying liar"
"No its not, its not, its not"
