@paulmurphy68 I’ve often wondered about that. All those getting so agitated about Irish language signage would be well advised never to visit beautiful Wales!🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Our Government Doesn't Want To Know’” It’s time the U.K. Government fulfilled legal obligations & investigated. Please read and share. LINK HERE thenerve.news/p/sangita-mysk… @thenerve_news

It's creeps like Luke Akehurst that have ruined the Labour Party. Even the kid at the front thinks he's a joke. 🤡

“My name is Amos Goldberg. I am an Israeli Professor of Holocaust Studies. For nearly 30 years I have researched and taught the Holocaust, genocide and state violence. And I want to tell whoever is willing to listen that what’s happening now in Gaza is a genocide. A year ago when October 7th happened, like all Israelis I was in shock. It was a war crime and a crime against humanity. 1200 people - more than 800 of them civilians - were killed in one day. Children and the elderly were among those taken hostage. Communities were destroyed. It was outrageous, traumatizing, personal. Like most Israelis, I know people who were killed, who lost loved ones or whose loved ones were taken hostage. But immediately afterwards came Israel’s response and within weeks thousands of civilians were killed in Gaza. It took me some time to digest what was unfolding before my eyes. It was agonizing to confront that reality. I was reluctant to call it a genocide. But if you read Raphael Lemkin – the Jewish-Polish legal scholar who coined the term ‘genocide’ and was the major driving force behind the 1948 United Nations Genocide Convention – what is happening in Gaza now is exactly what he had in mind when he spoke about genocide. It does not need to look like the Holocaust to be a genocide. Each genocide looks different and not all involve killing of millions or the entire group. The United Nations Genocide Convention explicitly asserts that genocide is the act of deliberately destroying a group in whole or in part. Those are the words. But there does need to be a clear intent. And indeed, there are clear indications of intent to destroy Gaza: Israel’s leaders - including the prime minister and the minister of defence - and many high-ranking military officers, media personalities, rabbis, as well as ordinary soldiers were very open about what they wanted to achieve. There were countless documented incitements to turn the whole of Gaza into rubble and claims that there are no innocent people living there. A radical atmosphere of dehumanization of the Palestinians prevails in Israeli society to an extent that I can’t remember in my 58 years of living here. Now that vision has been enacted. Tens of thousands of innocent children, women and men have been killed. Over a hundred thousand were wounded. There is a near total destruction of infrastructure, intentional starvation and blocking of humanitarian aid. There are mass graves and reliable testimony of summary executions. Children that were shot by snipers. All the universities and almost all hospitals are gone. Almost all the population is displaced. There have been numerous bombings of civilians in so-called ‘safe zones’. Gaza does not exist anymore. It is completely destroyed. Thus, the outcome fits perfectly with the stated intentions of Israel’s leadership. Lemkin - that scholar who coined the term ‘genocide’ - described two phases of a genocide. The first is the destruction of the annihilated group and the second is what he called ‘imposition of the national pattern’ of the perpetrator. We are now witnessing the second phase as Israel prepares ethnically cleansed areas for Israeli settlements. And therefore, I have come to the conclusion that this is exactly what a genocide looks like. We don’t teach about genocides in order to realize it retrospectively. We teach about it in order to prevent it and to stop it. But like in every other case of genocide in history right now we have mass denial. Both here in Israel and around the world. But reality cannot be denied. So yes, it is a genocide. And once you come to this conclusion you cannot remain silent.” - Statement to Led By Donkeys, December 2024 - Photo: Parliament Square, London, 8.40am, 4th December 2024

A Labour minister unable to condemn Reform's plan for the mass deportations of our neighbours. Cowardly and disgraceful. Labour are incapable of standing up to Reform's divisive nonsense. Only the Green Party have the courage to do this.

The Labour govt of 1945 nationalised the entire commanding heights of the economy: steel, rail, shipbuilding, road haulage, coal, gas, electricity in 6 yrs flat, while setting up the NHS in its spare time. Burnham: "steady now. What's the rush?"
Andy Burnham@AndyBurnhamGM

@TheCanaryUK @willem_moore_uk I’m not doing anything of the kind. Just got to be realistic about how quickly it can be done.

Happy birthday Jeremy Corbyn. You have been the most influential and inspiring politician in my lifetime since I heard you speak so passionately and convincingly at the great anti-war march and assembly in London on 15th February 2003. Your determination to keep going in the face of so much adversity is truly inspiring. Always on the side of those disadvantaged and dispossessed, those who believe a better world is possible. Hope you enjoy your special day. 🎈🕊️🌹🌻⭐️🥂

While arguing that Next can't afford to pay 16-24 year olds the minimum wage, CEO Lord Wolfson forgot to say that for the fiscal year ending January 2026, Next reported an operating profit of £1.236 billion, marking a 13.4% increase from the previous year. #r4today

Surprised how much heat this is getting. For accuracy, the Greens are demonstrably already the party of the young working class, the inner city working class, the minority ethnic working class, the LGBTQ working class and the graduate working class. We’ll come for the rest too.

The Greens are the party of the working class. We are not here to play tag along to Starmerism with a northern accent.
