My tribute to my dad, who passed away last month in the UK.

He was a proud Indian immigrant *and* a proud British citizen.

His life story is one long rebuttal to the nativists, bigots and xenophobes.

"Washington has become the court of Nero, an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers, and a jester high on ketamine in charge of purging the civil service.

This is a tragedy for the free world, but it is first and foremost a tragedy for the United States."

No aid has entered Gaza in 2 months 🚨

Since 2/3/25 Israel has blocked all aid from entering Gaza.

The people in Gaza are desperate. Food prices have soared up to 1400% compared to during the ceasefire. One of the only protein sources available, eggs now cost up to £36 a dozen.

Terrible to take money from ID to fund defence. Sad and confused: Trump says we rely too much on US for defence but who does he think we need to defend ourselves against? He is actively supporting Putin at the same time as demanding more defence spending in Europe…to protect ourselves from Putin.
