Lib Dem Leader @eddavey.libdems.org.uk:

"A great British institution is under attack from a foreign government. President Trump is trying to destroy our BBC... Trump has undermined press freedom in America. Now he's trying to do the same here, disgracefully egged on by the leader of Reform."

Exactly. Trump's supporters certainly felt encouraged to march on the Capitol, according to their reported, repeated cries during his speech: "Fight for Trump, fight for Trump".

Have a look at Trump's speech in its entirety and see what you think.

For someone with #dyscalculia, 47.75 looks totally dominated by the sevens, which are surely higher than the four and the five.

This morning, armed settlers in the West Bank attacked @standing-together.bsky.social activists & Rabbis for Human Rights as they were helping Palestinians harvest their olives in Qarawat Bani Hassan.

Please donate to protect the harvest.

Standing Together is the biggest peace movement in Israel, mobilising Israeli and Palestinian citizens against the occupation.

Please support their bravery.
We just finished up two student leadership seminars. These seminars are a place for Jewish and Palestinian students to learn how to make change on campus: how to fight discrimination and silencing as well as the occupation and horrors in Gaza. (1/2)

Crackdown on international students could hurt struggling UK cities.

Billions lost to local economies.

Education is a major export, being systematically harmed by xenophobic policies of successive govts.

Students going elsewhere, loss of UK soft power.

Exclude students from immigration total.
