Could confirming King Charles’ visit to the US be a smart move on the part of the UK? Could it help exert good sense leverage over Trump? Very bad look if the Iran war is ongoing when Charles arrives.

The attacks on Iran by Israel and the United States are illegal, unprovoked and unjustifiable. Peace and diplomacy was possible. Instead, Israel and the United States chose war. This is the behaviour of rogue states — and they have jeopardised the safety of humankind around the world with this catastrophic act of aggression. Our government must condemn this flagrant breach of international law, and urgently pursue a foreign policy based on justice, sovereignty and peace.

@PippaCrerar That’ll be interesting… not sure how much progress he made with human rights and rule of law in Kenya. But maybe that’s the point?

Hey @Keir_Starmer - British-made military equipment has been found on Sudan battlefields, used by a genocidal militia. That same militia is committing atrocities in El Fasher right now. Stop selling arms that could kill children! secure.avaaz.org/campaign/en/el…

I'm Jewish So I'm apalled by the senseless murders of two Jews in Manchester But I'm equally apalled, each time I hear that two people have been senselessly murdered in Gaza, Ukraine, or anywhere else Why should I feel any different? We're all members of the same human family

The people protesting, many of them Jewish, are protesting against Starmer and the UK’s arming of Israel, a foreign government. They are not protesting against British Jews. It is Starmer here who is conflating British Jews with Israel - and doing the antisemites’ work for them.
Keir Starmer@Keir_Starmer

I urge anyone thinking about protesting this weekend to recognise and respect the grief of British Jews. This is a moment of mourning. It is not a time to stoke tension and cause further pain. It is a time to stand together. We are a country that welcomes all people, no matter their faith, to stand under the same flag as neighbours and friends. That is who we are and who we will always be. Hatred and violence will never win.

💯 Suggesting that you can make traumatised Jewish people feel better by stopping solidarity with traumatised Palestinian people is not just insulting and pathetic - it's downright antisemitic and will exacerbate hostility towards Jews.
Times Radio@TimesRadio

“It’s outrageous, it’s insulting, it’s divisive to pit one cause against the other.” The government is asking people to choose between having “compassion and understanding to support British Jewish people and Palestinian people”, says journalist @RachShabi. @Mulkerrins

EXPLAINER: @HindRFoundation Chairman Dyab @Aboujahjah outlines why #Belgium 🇧🇪 arresting two Israeli soldiers at the @Tomorrowland festival over Gaza war crimes is a landmark moment for universal jurisdiction. The arrests followed an urgent legal complaint by the HRF and @GLAN_LAW. Our resolve is stronger than ever. ‼️We are ready—with evidence, legal teams, and a global network—to challenge Israeli impunity. Full details ▶️ bit.ly/4ogNtrx
