Israel is moving forward with its plans for mass execution of Palestinian prisoners without appeal or even a fair trial. Canada, France, UK, etc will all tut when they hang doctors for the crime of not abandoning their patients, and then move on to signing their next free trade agreement with Israel

Sweden’s experience with midwives providing abortion care offers lessons for other countries. Swedism midwives have long led care for healthy women during pregnancy and birth, with doctors supporting when complications arise. Applying the same model to abortion care is both logical and effective.

Not least in the govt’s NHS data deal with Palantir – a spy-tech firm co-founded by a man who thinks the NHS should be ‘ripped up.’

The footage of Australian police acting like ICE agents is pretty shocking, but the media broadly stepping up to downplay, deny and mis-describe their violence in ambiguous terms is completely unsurprising.
It's an industry fundamentally incapable of ever assigning any blame to the police: ever
