Two governments took The News Agents to secret court for two years via a constitutionally unprecedented superinjunction to stop you from hearing this story.
The MoD is responsible for a data leak that put up to 100,000 Afghans at risk of death.

Social media has enabled everyone to be limitlessly creative. Little clips of fun, pranks, comedy; or short films crammed with information & advice. As ever, it's up to us as daily scollers, viewers, consumers to make a wise choice. When we do, it's a treasure.

I agree.
At our demonstration today, I'm holding a placard stating
"I support
Palestine.
Action
must be taken."
My aim is to highlight the absurdity of the government dictating what can and cannot be said by peace-seeking people

In this article I list ten things western govts could do if they truly cared. Inaction is a choice, and currently a massive moral failure. Here’s the list in summary - all drawn from previous examples of humanitarian intervention: 🧵

Ten things the UK could do if it truly cared about Palestinians
Israel is a clear-cut case of western leaders failing to live up to their stated commitment to human rights and the concept of 'never again'

Quick call-out to local journalists:
I’m working on a piece about the state of local journalism in the UK, and I’d love to speak to a few people with lived experience over the next couple of days.
Just have a few questions - nothing formal, just a chat.

The emperor is naked. We all see it. And yet the crowd roars.
Trump’s parade wasn’t just farce - it was a symbol of post-truth politics.

Astonishing evidence at the Covid Inquiry.
The Government repeatedly ignored offers from the Crick Institute to provide mass testing on a national scale.
Instead, the Government paid Deloitte consultants to project manage, not yet established, privately run labs.

Would anyone in NW3, or thereabouts, like a free sofa? I love this sofa a great deal but it's just too large for our flat so we're getting a smaller one. I cannot emotionally accept the idea of it going to landfill.
