The calm did not last: A massive Israeli terrorist strike targeted the old town center of my village. Many houses destroyed, civilians might be under rubble.

Justin King, the ex CEO of Sainsburys, says price controls on basic food items (so people can afford to eat) are a nonsense. In 2013 it was reported that King got an £8 million pay packet for the previous year.

@PJTheEconomist Yes

Lost for words. Never thought I’d see a British govt trying to set food prices. If there is one highly competitive sector it is food retailing. Do we really want to live in a country where the state sets these prices? thetimes.com/article/3ec704…

The current price for a seat in congress is a mere $34 million. That's the current price of democracy in the US.

During the last Labour administration, Andy Burnham’s principal adviser was Jennifer Gerber. In 2010, Gerber was appointed director of lobby group Labour Friends of Israel, which she led for the next decade. LFI refuses to reveal its donors.

Andy Burnham’s principal adviser for many years, Jennifer Gerber, officially stepped down from Labour Friends of Israel in 2020. However, Companies House still lists Gerber as an active director of the lobby group. What’s going on?

Some of us have been saying this for years One week of 40C+ temperatures will see millions camping in the streets as our poorly insulated homes become death traps Expect hospital and transport chaos and blackouts too, as unprepared infrastructure fails theguardian.com/environment/20…

The IOF are SHOOTING at innocent and UNARMED activists delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza. 📌They do this openly, in the exact same way they have been oppressing, attacking, and murdering the Palestinian people for decades. Is this the "most moral army in the world"?!

Today, the Zionist grip on mainstream media in the West is tightening. Mainstream media once challenged state power — now it increasingly protects and reinforces it, explains Prof. David Miller (@Tracking_Power). #Spinwatch

A rare film of Edwardian London filmed over a century ago, in 1902. The streets, the people, the pace of life, it’s incredible to watch.

My letter to @Arsenal about their appalling treatment of a long-time employee fired because of his views on Palestine:

Israeli asset Josh Simons will be rewarded for his altruism to Andy Burnham with a top “No 10 job.” Zionism and Labour together will be at the heart of a Burnham government. He promises change but nothing will change. It’ll be establishment business as usual in No 10.

Francesca Albanese just exposed the ugly truth: The New York Times ignored Palestinian rape testimonies for over a year. She gave them a lengthy interview in February 2024. Nothing followed. UNRWA detailed torture and sexual abuse. Nothing. B'Tselem. Physicians for Human Rights. The UN Committee Against Torture-which concluded torture is Israeli state policy. The UN Commission -which called it systematic, widespread, and an act of genocide. All ignored. But now the NYT finally publishes? Suddenly it's a scandal The rape didn't start when the NYT noticed. The silence just became harder to maintain

Any political party that supports the genocide in Gaza is not really going to give a fcuk about you.

israeli violence against volunteers who sailed with compassion and love in their hearts. With hands in the air, participants implored ‘do not shoot’. This is an attack on Gaza. This is an attack on humanity. This is what apartheid looks like: when those trying to save lives are met with bullets. When aid is blocked with brutality. When international law is made a mockery. israel openly bragged that they would target based on race. We cannot stand by while this is normalized. Repost. Contact Government officials. Rise up. gsumud.link/demand *as far as we know no one has been seriously hurt - updates to come

The third link in McSweeney’s inner circle is Matt Pound. Pound was instrumental in Labour Party rule changes that smoothed Starmer’s rise to power. He was previously head of “Labour First”, working to ensure the success of McSweeney-favoured candidates in “internal elections”.
