I don't know what to say about the images of the burning dead in Gaza this morning. The vocabulary of outrage and disgust is exhausted. Shame at the moral nihilism of my country's government and so much of its press.

Climate groups and unions coming together to fight for a just transition. @hmtreasury we need investment in future proofed jobs for workers and communities now

The Danish left bucked Europe’s shift right. Turns out that trying to out-do the far right by blaming immigrants for problems a wealthy few are creating, & then worsening inequality with kickbacks to the 1% – as the centrists did – is a losing strategy. Here’s what we learned: 🧵
