With Tukwini Mandela, at the same spot her grandfather, Nelson Mandela, delivered his famous Make Poverty History speech. And 32 years on the day he was freed from Robben Island prison. A day I'll never forget.

Israel’s parliament has passed a controversial bill that seeks to impose the death penalty on Palestinians convicted of killing Israelis in acts of terror, but not on Jewish Israelis who kill Palestinians in similar circumstances. ft.trib.al/iabissb

In reality, the headline should read: “Israel tortured and starved Palestinian child, Walid Ahmad, whom it held hostage under administrative detention, without charge, in its prison.”

To anyone who has ever been called a “Paki” or told that “They don’t belong here” this one is for you. This is our home, we do belong here, and we ain’t going anywhere…🤲🏽 Me and @rizwanahmed hope we made you proud 🤲🏽 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇵🇰🇮🇳🇧🇩🇱🇰🇳🇬🇯🇲🇸🇴🇾🇪🇵🇸🇬🇭🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 BAIT is on @PrimeVideo now 🏆

When Jewish volunteer ambulance services (which serve all communities) are attacked simply because they are Jewish, these are acts of antisemitism & should be condemned by anyone who considers themselves an anti-racist. We should be consistent in calling out all forms of racism.

I don’t get it. If Hezbollah had flats in this block (unlikely in central Beirut but not impossible) why did the Israelis give everyone inside an hour to get out — including those they wanted to kill? And if there weren’t any Hezbollah people there, why destroy a building with dozens of civilians in it?

And there it is….The real Israeli objective.

Funny how many self-proclaimed ‘patriots’ spend huge amounts of time and effort avoiding taxes that pay for 🇬🇧 hospitals, schools, roads, defence and all the rest.

Richard Tice’s tax avoidance is legal. So is registration of corporations like Amazon in tax havens so they can avoid paying a penny in the UK. THE SYSTEM IS RIGGED - the rich get to mug us all off & point at immigrants & Muslims for our problems. We’re not buying it anymore.

US bombers loading up on UK airstrips before raining down bombs on Iran. Parliament wasn't consulted - and polling shows huge numbers oppose it. When do MPs get a say over our involvement in this war?

Wait, I thought it was about rescuing the Iranian people???

Dear @ShabanaMahmood, Let's clear some things up around migration and remember we're talking about people's lives.

'This is not intelligence, this is fabrication' Robert Malley, the lead negotiator on the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, tells @SkyYaldaHakim: 'There's no way that Iran would have been two weeks away from developing a bomb' Iran latest: trib.al/uBSfoFL 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602

The world, Europe, and Spain have faced this critical moment before. In 2003, a few irresponsible leaders dragged us into an illegal war in the Middle East that brought nothing but insecurity and pain. Our response then must be our response now: NO to violations of international law. NO to the illusion that we can solve the world’s problems with bombs. NO to repeating the mistakes of the past. NO TO WAR. lamoncloa.gob.es/presidente/int…

Rubio says US launched strikes on Iran because Israel planned to attack ft.trib.al/TwI3i2M

New: Pentagon briefers acknowledged to congressional staff in a briefing Sunday that Iran was not planning to strike US forces or bases in the Middle East unless Israel attacked Iran first, multiple sources to @NatashaBertrand, @jmhansler & me. Why this matters: It undercuts Trump admin’s argument on Saturday that Iran was planning to potentially strike the US preemptively & posed an imminent threat: #cmm8g18pb00003b6s68xqscio" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">cnn.com/world/live-new…

Keir Starmer calls on *checks notes* Iran “to get back around the negotiating table.” That’s where they were, then the US and Israel started bombing. The words of a pathetic vassal.
