.@rachshabi: "What else is [Streeting] going to come up with, what policy is he going to come up with, what policy has the Labour right come up with for years? Nothing. Zip. Zilch. They've got nothing.. what has he got to offer... except for regurgitating.. brexit again"

Apparently our calcified, disconnected and incompetent political class is not to blame for this crisis. Oh no, it is the public’s fault for being “ungovernable”

One Quaker in the audience said: "It was the best description of the challenges in the Middle East and their sources that I have ever heard."

The number of lies being told about @aoc - her politics, her views, her record - on this website this weekend is insane.
Some self-proclaimed leftists want to undermine and taint the most viable and popular potential leftist candidate for president in 2028. Also insane.

I never thought I would say this but the blue flak jackets that are meant to protect journalists reporting war are now putting targets on our backs pressgazette.co.uk/news/christina…

I urge everyone to watch this report by Channel 4 News about Israel’s killing of Lebanese journalist Amal Khalil.
“Under international humanitarian law, journalists are afforded the same protection as civilians… If that journalist has a particular sympathy with a particular cause, that doesn’t mean that protection is removed…
… the IDF said the incident is under review. Don’t hold your breath…”
Providing the necessary context and not taking Israel’s claims at face value.
This is how every journalist should be reporting.

#C4News last night reported on the wholesale targeting of ambulances & paramedics in Lebanon by Israel, including the recent 'triple hit', when Israel attacked an ambulance, then attacked paramedics who went to help, and then attacked further paramedics also trying to help.

Lebanese journalist:
“What I see on the ground is families terrorised, videos of people jumping from balconies to escape, images of children wounded by shrapnel and trapped under rubble”
They are repeating Gaza because the world taught Israel that there are no consequences. Today, Lebanon pays for that lesson.

Barack Obama reached a deal that prevented Iran from getting a nuclear weapon.
Trump ripped up that deal.
Now we are at war with Iran to prevent it from getting a nuclear weapon.

Every journalist should be reporting the facts, as Jeremy Bowen just did on the BBC:
🚨 This is a war of choice, not a 'pre-emptive' war
🚨 It's against international law
🚨 Trump and Netanyahu don't care about that
🚨 It threatens the security of the world

@NadimJBaba Similar to Iraq in that the mainstream political class just doesn't get why we care so much...

Bingo. It's bigger than the illegal invasion of Iraq, which saw millions protest. It's not rocket science, people.

Nick Robinson on BBC fairly said many will dismiss the Gorton & Denton result by pointing to a “large Muslim vote still motivated and angry about what happened in Gaza”. Many are wrong. It is not just Muslims that are motivated by the treatment of Palestinians, and these voters are not just angry about what happened in Gaza, but about what is happening in Gaza. Maybe this vote is not as big as the stop the boats lot, but Gaza is still a large part of what is driving the alienation from Labour. Little sign in the foreign office or No 10 of any recognition of this.
