The escalation between Iran and Israel is a tragic & entirely predictable consequence of Israel’s attacks on Friday. UK govt must make clear it will have no part in this aggression and explicitly rule out any military support for Israel.

BBC News at 9am. We're shown a video of Israel during an Iranian air strike & we're told 5 people have been injured by shrapnel. We're then told about Israeli attacks on Iran
No mention of Gaza. Israel has just massacred at least 50 Palestinians there while they waited for aid

Trooping the Colour, how much do you pay for this ridiculous charade?
£20,000,000
That is 800 Nurses, 500 Doctors or 1000 Teachers.
We need all of them, we don't need this.

The UK is supposed to be a democracy, Parliament should vote on any potential action that could lead to war with Iran.

Every bomb dropped, every child killed, bears the stain of British complicity.
This genocide is made possible by the UK, US, and EU — arming, funding and shielding Israel as it massacres with impunity.
How do those responsible sleep at night?

BBC is full of coverage of trial of some people for cutting down an old tree. Fair enough. But nothing about latest mass murders in Gaza - nor about trials of Israeli war criminals visiting UK, as the govt won't put them on trial...

It is unbelievably counterproductive to fund increased defence spending by cutting aid to the most fragile countries, or by squeezing stretched departmental budgets. Why does the PM not fund this by increasing taxes on the most wealthy rather than further burdening the poorest?
