Grew up near Boston, ripened in Montreal, now maturing in London along side my husband and cat. Hopelessly progressive and for now a full-time Unitarian (Social Action Officer for the UK National movement & Chair of my local congregation in SE London).
Israel plans to take over Gaza City. Starmer says their plan is wrong & they must rethink it, but the UK is still supporting Israel with arms sales, training, RAF surveillance flights & more. Sign the petition: tell Keir he MUST end this support: act.38degrees.org.uk/act/stop-isr...
Sign the petition: Stop all UK support for the Israeli military in Gaza
I've signed a petition calling for Keir Starmer to end all UK military support in Israel.

And they won’t be top of the class this year.

❌Work ban still in place
🤞Promising changes in asylum housing
🟡Rwanda scrapped, but hostile policies remain
❌Same scapegoating tactics

One good mark doesn’t fix a failing report.

NEW: 3 in 5 Brits would support sanctions on Israel, to exert pressure on it to stop its attacks on Gaza

65% would support a COMPLETE arms sales ban to Israel. And 60% would support an end to the trade deal between the UK and Israel.

Two thirds of Brits want Keir Starmer to end arms sales to Israel, poll shows
Polling by campaign group Global Justice Now found 65% if voters support an arm sales ban until attacks on Gaza end, with just 11% opposing the move

This regime is gutting vital services relied upon by millions...all to extend even more tax cuts (and subsidies) to the super-rich.

Millions of Americans — including many who have been purged from their positions of responsibility — are standing up to Trump and Musk’s tyranny. Congressional switchboards are ringing off the hook.

We are beginning to flood Trump and Musk’s zone. Let’s flood it out.

I am a climate scientist and this is correct ⬇️
Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.
