@GiveDirectly has sent $1 billion in cash directly to people in extreme poverty. Their model has no middle man and study after study shows it works. Any billionaire could call them tomorrow and help pull an entire country out of poverty. For some, it would cost about a year in the stock market. I’m honestly baffled: why is there not a single billionaire who just makes the call to @NickAllardice, GiveDirectly’s CEO? Instead, they fund vanity projects and call it philanthropy. The solutions exist but the ambition is pointed in the wrong direction.

When Labour claim to be the party of workers, remember that they have spent over £33.4 million so that they could cut workers’ pay by £8,000, potentially saving them no more than £1.2 million. This is cruelty for the sake of it targeted directly at the working class.

Rutger Bregman@rcbregman·
The New Yorker article about Sam Altman has SO many insane anecdotes. Take this one: "As the technology became increasingly powerful, we learned, about a dozen of OpenAI’s top engineers held a series of secret meetings to discuss whether OpenAI’s founders, including Brockman and Altman, could be trusted. At one, an employee was reminded of a sketch by the British comedy duo Mitchell and Webb, in which a Nazi soldier on the Eastern Front, in a moment of clarity, asks, “Are we the baddies?” It's incomprehensible to me how anyone with good - or even normal - ethics can still work there. How many warning signs do these people need before they realize that yes, they ARE working for the baddies?

Susan Abulhawa @susanabulhawa talks about what she saw and felt during her visits to Gaza during the ongoing violence. She went there twice. On her second visit, she also organized writing workshops. In these workshops, she helped people, especially young writers, express their thoughts, pain, and hopes through writing. Video: tehreer.o.tasweer

It’s shocking how openly and repeatedly the Western media tells you that they simply don’t consider brown people to be human. Among the first casualties of this war were 160 Iranian schoolchildren, but it takes a lost US pilot to bring a human dimension to the slaughter?
Hamza Yusuf@Hamza_a96

“It brings a human dimension to the war…” says Sky News’ military analyst about a missing American pilot from an F-15 jet. Has Sky News ever raised that same human dimension about the US and Israel’s carpet bombing of Gaza, Lebanon and Iran?

The left-wing actor and playwright Wallace Shawn, currently in two plays in New York, describes a harsh midlife conversion to class politics — transforming from a disengaged liberal to someone who sees himself as “a participant in the world struggle.” jacobin.com/2026/04/wallac…

The Guardian’s support for the appalling Starmer was so uncritical that they not only turned down a massive story about the malfeasance vehicle that brought him to power, but threatened to ‘expose’ the independent investigative journalist who uncovered the story with lies. Shameful!
Andrew Feinstein@andrewfeinstein

‘When Will the Guardian Admit Its Part in the Labour Together Scandal?’ ⁦@PippaCrerar⁩ & ⁦@GdnPolitics⁩ have a lot to answer for. I assume like all mainstream media they’ll think they’re above criticism & do nothing! novaramedia.com/2026/04/03/whe…

The bombing of the biggest bridge in Iran that Trump was bragging about today was a “double tap” strike & the second strike occurred while emergency responders were assisting the wounded. Targeting rescue workers and civilians is a war crime. The US and Israel are the terrorists.

So, let’s get this straight: it’s perfectly legitimate for a judge who is an open enthusiast for genocide in the Levant, to preside over a case of two people arrested for protesting against the genocide in the Levant? Surely genocide supporters should be disqualified from being judges at all?
Anti-zionist Movement@azm_org_uk

Judge was Daniel Sternberg. Sternberg is a board member of the movement for Reform Judaism, which elects Rabbis for the Board of Deputies of British Jews. Reform Judaism’s website shows clear links to ‘Israel’. Sternberg previously dismissed a case against Tommy Robinson.

Esta noche, el canal británico Channel 4 emite un documental en exclusiva que podría cambiar muchas cosas Han conseguido que varios soldados del ejército de Israel les cuenten qué han hecho, y lo que describen es bárbaro Básicamente, y en contra de lo sostenido por el Gobierno de Israel, afirman que Israel utiliza un sistema de inteligencia artificial que asigna puntuaciones a los palestinos y que, si esa puntuación supera un umbral concreto, la IA ejecuta automáticamente una orden de asesinato Es decir, que Israel estaría cometiendo un genocidio con un sistema de inteligencia artificial que no está siendo supervisado por seres humanos, y con un saldo que, según dicen, aceptan de un soldado por cada 20 civiles muertos, o de hasta 300 si se trata de una persona relevante Básicamente, una doctrina Dahiya con esteroides y, claramente, una atrocidad sin parangón desde el uso de armas químicas
Channel 4 Dispatches@C4Dispatches

‘There was permission to kill 300 people as collateral damage.’ Israeli intelligence whistleblowers expose the ‘non-human’ targeting system in Gaza, where strikes are approved in minutes, as more than 70,000 have been killed in Gaza since October 7th.

Terrifying revelation. A prominent British journalist concludes that Israel's cruel closures and economic strangulation are a deliberate attempt to drive Christians completely out of Jerusalem and Palestine. It is a systematic ethnic cleansing of the Holy Land.
