Our PM keeps talking about people doing mitzvahs, to combat hate.
I wonder, was Rabbi Eli Schlanger doing a mitzvah when he raised money for weapons for the IDF to keep murdering Palestinians, and continue ethnic cleansing in the West Bank.

HMRC taking more than a year to pay tax rebates.

It is one-way traffic. People fined for late filing of tax returns and payments. Hard to get through on phone. Letters not answered. Poor public accountability.

Sweetheart deals with corporations/rich that parliament can't scrutinize.

Reminder that just a month ago the Swiss Government rejected using Palantir in any role in Switzerland's Government.

Because they posed a 'catastrophic' threat.

Palantir is working with ICE.

Why the hell are we giving Palantir our NHS information.

Palantir need to be banned from UK Goverment, just like the Swiss banned them from theirs.

When we said NATO wasn't working we were derided.

When we said a nuclear weapons system relying on the US is dangerous we were called stupid.

The truth is the establishment are more interested in kissing US feet than keeping the UK safe.

It's time for a rethink.

As true today as it was then.

“If you see anyone advocating for Israel on the TV or radio. One of their repellent spokespeople say, then they will be lying, because that’s what they do. They lie and they lie and they lie and they lie and they lie and they lie and they lie...”

Donald Trump has not assembled a “Board of Peace” for Gaza.

He has assembled a Board of Occupation.

The future of Gaza is not up to Trump, Blair or Netanyahu.

That is up to the Palestinian people.

Israel is escalating its assault on the Palestinian healthcare system, attacking hospitals and imprisoning healthcare workers.

Join us tonight to send a message to the government: end your complicity in these war crimes and take action to save human life, now.

Days after Israel confirms it is arbitrarily detaining Palestinian hospital director Dr Hussam Abu Safiya at a notorious prison camp, the UK government remains silent.

This is an unforgivable failure of obligations to human rights and international law.
