I see that Led by donkeys is asking people not to purchase Tesla cars, but have considered the 1000’s who work for Tesla? They aren’t responsible for the ravings of Musk. The cars reduce environmental poison, Musk spouts poison but you don’t have to breathe it in!

Why are these people called ‘settlers’ not terrorists? bit.ly/4junJp6 they are motivated by religion - as I understand it they believe the Bible gives them the right to this land - and they use violence to terrorise the people who live there
Radical Israeli settlers get ‘free rein’ to raid West Bank
Terrifying attacks on Palestinian villages offer evidence the far-right feels emboldened by Donald Trump lifting sanctions on settlements

With billionaires buying up and using legacy media as mouthpiece’s for their fascistic agendas, this is incredibly concerning. Feels like the Guardian/Observer is the last bastion of trustworthy journalism, and it’s in great peril. Please boycott during the strike days!!
So here’s the update. The billionaire owner of the Guardian preparing to get rid of a core part of the news org + 100 journalists.
If you’re a Guardian or Observer reader, please share this. The need for a strong, free & independent press couldn’t be greater. Yet, here it is.

@theguardian.com is wrong to be considering a sale of The Observer to Tortoise Media. Our oldest Sunday newspaper is better aligned to The Guardian. It's wrong to be considering this change of ownership.

Had lunch at the Clink in Brixton prison today - superb food, lovely dining area, and great service, all done by the inmates, who get great training which helps them in the labour market upon release. Do spread the word, and give it a try yourself - details here: theclinkcharity.org/restaurants/...
