The Israeli strike on a tent in Khan Younis today severed the foot of a one-month-old infant. The infant’s mother and a 6-year-old girl were also killed in the same attack. 🎥 Filmed by Ibrahim Muhareb.
🟢 EXCL: Senior Green Party figures have urged Zack Polanski to consider stepping aside for Andy Burnham in the Makerfield by-election if the Greater Manchester mayor commits to introducing proportional representation Green councillors, activists and former party leaders have signed a joint statement warning that the party should approach the contest with “trepidation” The letter, whose signatories include Jonathan Bartley, who led the party between 2016 and 2018, and Rupert Read, a former Green councillor and author, says that Burnham’s election presents a “unique opportunity” to secure reform “In all reality this is not a seat Greens can win.

@GreenJennyJones In case anyone here has been misled by the TIMES story today: HERE is who we are and what we said. Nothing about standing down: compassonline.org.uk/makerfield-gre…
The worlds going to end not with wailing and agony but with news presenters grinning talking about ice cream
Alongside @weizman_eyal, I won't participate in the #HayFestival because of @Airbnb being their main sponsor. Profiting from illegal settlements, advertising properties built on stolen land makes Airbnb not ''just a sponsor''. We must stop normalising Apartheid with a click!
