Every day, Israel deliberately massacres unarmed civilians it has deliberately starved.

How is this possible?

Because instead of framing Israel’s atrocities as obscene outrages demanding urgent action, the Western media has normalised Israel’s atrocities.

“Israeli officers and soldiers said that they were ordered to deliberately fire at unarmed civilians waiting for humanitarian aid in an investigation published by the Israeli newspaper 𝘏𝘢𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘵𝘻 on Friday; the military prosecution has called for a review into possible war crimes.”

Almost every paragraph of this article describes another atrocity or war crime, with first-hand testimony from Israeli soldiers.

Beyond obscene, and the callous indifference of the UK political and media establishment equally so.

Opinion | Musk Said No One Has Died Since Aid Was Cut. That Isn’t True. (Gift Article)
A journey through the front lines of global poverty shows that when the world’s richest men slash aid for the world’s poorest children, the result is sickness, starvation and death.

Here is the CEO of NHSE, soon to be part of the government - the same government that receives VAT payments and promises to improve workers’ rights - advising trusts to perform a costly re-organisation in order to, erm, avoid VAT and reduce workers’ rights.

This is madness. Management slashed in half at national and ICB level, in a service already hideously under-managed. We could reduce admin costs by investing in management and tech, not with a chainsaw. NHS is about to get much less efficient.

NEW: “Eat What You Kill”

Hailed as a savior upon his arrival in Helena, Dr. Thomas C. Weiner became a favorite of patients and his hospital’s highest earner. As the myth surrounding the high-profile oncologist grew, so did the trail of patient harm and suspicious deaths. @davidmcswane.bsky.social

As a GP, I believe these are both true:
1) Sickness benefits are often too low and difficult to access for those who need them
2) Too many have been permanently signed off without a decent attempt to address their health issues or encourage them into work. This is often disastrous for their health.
Just incredibly bleak that when a Labour government is finally in power, disabled people still have to wake up to front pages calling them a blight on society.
