"We're not disclosing her surname for safety reasons"

He means because Israeli might target her & her family, just like they've targeted and murdered hundreds of aids workers & their families.

People sheltering in damaged buildings are being killed as storms & heavy rain is causing the buildings to collapse. And why are people sheltering in dangerous buildings at all? Because Israel is blocking the entry of tents & shelters into Gaza

Solidarity with the eight Palestine activists on hunger strikes.

These are prisoners of conscience, being held for opposing UK complicity in genocide.

If they die while David Lammy continues to refuse to meet them he will be directly responsible.

He must free them, and unban Palestine Action.

@simonforstroud.bsky.social remember the coverage of Bobby Sands, an IRA member on hunger strike? So much that we remember his name >4 decades later. Shame on this gov’t for proscribing good people as terrorists; shame on your colleague for ignoring Corbyn’s request. Shame on the BBC for corruption.
Jake Richards, a Home Office minister has refused a request from Jeremy Corbyn for a meeting to discuss the plight of eight remand prisoners accused of offences related to Palestine Action who are on hunger strike.

2 of the 8 have been on hunger strike for 45 days and could die.

Shame on Labour.

Belgian commutes pay off: Employees earn up to €810 for cycling to work
One in five people in Flanders commuted by bike and received compensation last year, but this figure is significantly lower in Brussels and Wallonia.

And we all recall Trump's first mention in the New York Times.

Today, the Times might cover this story as "Trump's unconventional housing strategy draws government interest".
