Really concerned about this new development waved through by Lewisham council late last year. @daviduw92 are you aware? standard.co.uk/news/london/de…

Condemnation is no longer good enough. Anything short of full sanctions has become complicity.

"I understand why you're doing it but for heaven's sake... ...and then you see the scenes in Spain." It's a relief to see @mrjamesob connecting the dots. So few journalists are. Direct action from ordinary people is needed more than ever to force those in power to act.

An important reminder today for Londoners: our city is - and will always be - for everyone. We will always be pro-women, pro-diversity, pro-climate and pro-human rights. These are some of the values that will continue to bind us together as Londoners.

Things have just got a lot more difficult . Here’s what I think . I had no control over what just happened . None . But I do have control over how I will react to it . And I am not going to give up on the beautiful and the good , the grip on my dreams just got tighter .

Urgent: Civil Defense in Gaza: - We have completely stopped our operations in North Gaza , and the situation there has become catastrophic, with citizens left without humanitarian services. - Israeli occupation forces present in the Sheikh Zayed area have arrested 5 of our personnel and taken them to an unknown location. - Israeli tanks targeted the only fire truck in the northern sector with shells and set it on fire. - Three of our personnel who were targeted by an Israeli drone in the Beit Lahiya project have lost communication, and their fate is unknown. #North_Gaza #Jabalia

🆘🆘 from our @UNRWA staff in northern #Gaza. Nearly three weeks of non-stop bombardments from the Israeli Forces as the death toll increases. Our staff report they cannot find food, water or medical care. The smell of death is everywhere as bodies are left lying on the roads or under the rubble. Missions to clear the bodies or provide humanitarian assistance are denied. In northern Gaza, people are just waiting to die. They feel deserted, hopeless and alone. They live from one hour to the next, fearing death at every second. Throughout the war over the past year, some UNRWA staff stayed in the north & did the impossible to provide aid to internally displaced people. We kept some of our shelters open despite heavy bombardments & attacks on our buildings. On behalf of our staff in northern Gaza, I am calling for an immediate truce, even if for few hours, to enable safe humanitarian passage for families who wish to leave the area & reach safer places. This is the bare minimum to save the lives of civilians who have nothing to do with this conflict. #CeaseFireNow

This is unprecedented! 1,000+ scientists and medics are calling on MPs to support—and help fast-track—the crucial Climate & Nature Bill. Email your MP now (action.zerohour.uk). Ask them to prioritise the #CANBill in the private members’ bill ballot. twitter.com/zerohour_uk/st…

We have changed the shape of the left and British politics forever. thecorbynproject.com/news/jeremy-co…

Where is the media @BBC @LBC @itvnews @MailOnline @itn when hundreds of thousands peaceful protests march for nature? @ChrisGPackham 100% correct when he said that the media only report whena bit of cornstarch is thrown on #Stonehenge #marchfornature

Safe and legal routes now. Keir Starmer has announced that the Labour party will fund a new ‘border security commander’ rather than opening safe & legal routes for people to claim asylum in the UK. Only the Greens are committed to a humane, common-sense approach to migration.

There needs to be an urgent and significant step change in the Government's approach to this horrendous conflict. The UK can no longer allow itself to remain complicit in the deaths of civilians. It must immediately end sales of arms to Israel.

@LiamShrivastava Is there anything we can do to stop it?

Tomorrow's rollout of Live Facial Recognition in Lewisham is deeply concerning LFR has serious racial bias and privacy implications, is legally dubious and has never been debated in parliament. Local consultation has been minimal, with elected members notified just 2 weeks ago🧵

“The neoliberal shift was never about shrinking the state… It was about crushing collective power.”

If you watch one video today, make it this. I could not agree with this more⬇️
