🚨 Karen calls the cops on a man standing by his own car. Cop shows up, panics, and tases him for… existing. “You need to obey me.” Translation: I messed up and I know the lawsuit is coming.

As Israel continues to block aid from entering Gaza, Palestinians are now relying on recycled plastic gathered from rubble to produce water hoses for emergency water distribution. Al Jazeera’s Ibrahim al-Khalili reports from Gaza City.

Who knows how long the prison sentence will be before the evidence is heard? No matter how much they try to dress this up getting rid of juries is turning away from justice and a giant step towards authoritarianism. No Jury =no justice.
Defend Our Juries@DefendOurJuries

The Courts and Tribunals Bill will see a single judge replace a jury for cases where a prison sentence of three years or less is expected. “After 800 years of Trial by Jury, the government is dismantling this cornerstone of the British justice system” lancasterguardian.co.uk/news/people/la…

Israel expands the death penalty regime in the occupied West Bank. The law mandates the death penalty in military courts while excluding Israelis from prosecution under the same system middleeasteye.pulse.ly/qtsgokdzpp

The government banned 11 “far right agitators” from visiting Britain ahead of the Unite the Kingdom March. But it’s gone out of its way to issue special mission certificates for Israeli military leaders to visit Britain while engaged in genocide. declassifieduk.org/tag/israel/

THATCHER LIED TO PARLIAMENT AND THE WHISTLEBLOWER WENT ON TRIAL In 1982, Margaret Thatcher told Parliament that the Argentine cruiser General Belgrano was steaming toward the British exclusion zone and posed a direct threat to Royal Navy forces when it was sunk. That was the official story. It held for two years. The documents Clive Ponting leaked told a different story. The Belgrano had been sighted a day earlier than officially reported, was moving away from the task force, and was outside the exclusion zone when the submarine HMS Conqueror attacked and sank it. 323 sailors died. Ponting was not some disgruntled outsider. He was a young, high-flying Ministry of Defence official with Margaret Thatcher's ear, trusted enough to draft the government's own parliamentary replies on the subject. He recommended that continued secrecy was both unnecessary and "increasingly untenable." His advice was ignored. So he leaked his report, the documents that became known internally as the Crown Jewels, to Labour MP Tam Dalyell. The Defence Ministry identified him quickly. They offered a deal. He confessed and agreed to resign. Senior Thatcherite politicians still considered him a traitor and pushed successfully for his prosecution under the Official Secrets Act. His defence barrister said it at the trial: this case is not about spying. It is about lying, about misleading Parliament. It was, in his words, the case of Thatcher, Heseltine, and Stanley against Ponting. Ponting had brought his toothbrush and shaving kit to court on 11 February 1985. He fully expected prison. The jury acquitted him anyway. The Conservative government responded by amending secrets legislation and introducing the Official Secrets Act 1989. Because if the law does not get the verdict you wanted, you change the law. Ponting resigned. Lost his career. The ministers who misled Parliament kept theirs.

Irish President Catherine Connolly has urged world leaders not to "normalise war" or "slaughter" as she expressed concern for her sister who was on board a Gaza flotilla intercepted today by the Israelis.

Here's a radical idea for cutting the welfare budget, have big employers like Tesco pay their staff a living wage , so they don't have to claim benefits. Tax payers should not be subsidising Tesco and the like!
David__Osland@David__Osland

The boss of Tesco pays himself nearly eleven million quid a year while up to half his staff are so badly paid that they have to claim in-work benefits. Then politicians wonder why people are so pissed off these days.

Absolute trainwreck on BBC. UK MP Kemi Badenoch is completely exposed. She outrageously defends far-right marches, claiming no one is targeted, only for footage to reveal terrifying calls to eradicate Islam. The establishment's double standard is fully unmasked.

Israeli soldiers keep filming their own crimes, because nobody stops them!!! Israeli occupation soldiers continue documenting and publishing videos of abuses against Palestinians with complete impunity, amid ongoing international silence over Israel’s crimes in the occupied territories. In the latest footage, Israeli soldiers were seen singing and celebrating inside a vehicle while blindfolded abducted Palestinians were held in the back seat. The scenes add to growing evidence of systematic violations committed by Israeli occupation forces under the protection of a "government" committing ethnic cleansing and war crimes against Palestinians without accountability.
