I can only imagine how frustrating it must be for Labour that voters refuse to recognise the difference between the government's progressive, well-intentioned racism and the destructive, toxic racism of Reform and the far-right.

Opposing genocide is the moral duty of our time.
Yet Palestine Action activists have been held in prison for over a year without trial. Six are now on hunger strike.
Detaining peaceful protesters under counter-terror powers is indefensible. This is political imprisonment in all but name.

<div class="content">
<div class="field field-field-text"><p>Since the Gaza ceasefire was signed last month, <a href="https://www.middleeasteye.net/countries/israel" target="_blank">Israel</a> has continued to violate the agreement.</p>
<p>From air strikes and shootings to arrests and incursions beyond the deployment lines, most of the violations appear unprovoked.</p>
<p>Israel has cited alleged breaches by Hamas and other <a href="https://www.middleeasteye.net/countries/palestine" target="_blank">Palestinian</a> groups to justify its actions.</p>
<p>Hamas, however, has denied the accusations, insisting it has fully complied with the terms of the ceasefire.</p>
<p>Many of the violations targeting civilians, meanwhile, have occurred without justification.</p>

Revealed: Israel demanded Google and Amazon use secret ‘wink’ to sidestep legal orders
The tech giants agreed to extraordinary terms to clinch a lucrative contract with the Israeli government, documents show
When Google and Amazon negotiated a major $1.2bn cloud-computing deal in 2021, their customer – the Israeli government – had an unusual demand: agree to use a secret code as part of an arrangement that would become known as the “winking mechanism”.
The demand, which would require Google and Amazon to effectively sidestep legal obligations in countries around the world, was born out of Israel’s concerns that data it moves into the global corporations’ cloud platforms could end up in the hands of foreign law enforcement authorities.

Court also found that Israel had a duty not to impede supply of aid by UN organisations including Unrwa
Israel must allow aid into Gaza, and its restrictions on doing so over the past two years have put it in breach of its obligations, the UN’s top court has found.
The stinging advisory opinion by the International Court of Justice in The Hague also found that Israel had a duty not to impede the supply of aid by UN organisations including the beleaguered UN Palestinian relief agency Unrwa, which has been in effect banned from the territory since January.

Idi Amin deported 80,000 Asians from Uganda in 1972. So although the Conservatives want to propose the first mass deportation of legal migrants since Idi Amin - especially with the retrospective changes in ILR - Lam is proposing to deport 20 times as many people as Idi Amin.

I have a whole range of observations about digital ID, but the main one is it's a mistake to launch a complex, measurable, highly scrutinisable infrastructure project to achieve a specific measurable target when there is no evidence that the complex project will result in the measurable outcome
