The first time in British history that the Greens have topped a national poll for Westminster. Despite whatever talking points you’ll hear in legacy media my sense is they are gently nibbling into people who were considering Reform.

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 ultra rich are hiding away colossal wealth in offshore accounts. Oxfam's 2026 investigation shows untaxed wealth by the richest 0.1% exceeds the entire wealth of the poorest half of humanity (4.1 billion people)--more than the GDP of France downtoearth.org.in/governance/unt…

I’ve seen someone else on here suggest that the retired doctor who wrote this was a “junior” doctor in 1974 when he was “happy with £7,500” Just so we’re all clear on the maths: £7,500 in 1974 in today’s money is: 🔹 £114,756 by RPI inflation. 🔸 £72,046 by CPI inflation.

A surgeon at my gym took early retirement to go to Palestine & operate on 150+ kids. He’s a maxillofacial specialist & said he’s never seen cruelty like it; the IDF’s ‘game’ is to try & shoot children in the head without killing them. Why won’t you denounce them @Keir_Starmer?
Musafir@MusafirNafar

A BBC investigation confirms it: IDF snipers are systematically targeting and killing Palestinian children, including infants

Should Keir Starmer send the King to honour Trump with a state visit? Absolutely not. Time to stop appeasing the President who is causing so much harm to the world.

The best time to transition to a majority renewable national energy model was any time in the last couple of decades. The next best time is now.

🚨 BREAKING: The European Commission has urged people to work from home, drive and fly less, and for EU countries to urgently roll out renewables, as it warned of a prolonged energy crisis as a result of the conflict in the Gulf. Full story: politico.eu/article/europe…

“They say that Spain is alone. They said the same when we recognized the State of Palestine, and then others followed. We are not alone. We are the first. Those defending the indefensible will be the ones left alone.” — Sánchez, March 9
Idrees Ali@idreesali114

MADRID, March 30 (Reuters) - Spain has closed its airspace to U.S. planes involved in attacks on Iran, a step beyond its ‌previous denial of use of jointly-operated military bases, Defence Minister Margarita Robles said on Monday.

In shock at the grocery store? In tears looking at your bills? “It’s because the wealth of this country is being hoovered up by a corporate elite who are extracting it from you every single day,” Avi Lewis says. “It’s immoral. It’s unreasonable. It’s un-Canadian. And we cannot let it stand.”
