Tens of thousands of Palestinians are dead, but that isn't the focus of mainstream media, or of Sir Keir Starmer, who completely erased Palestinian suffering in his response to the proposed 'ceasefire' (which is yet to take effect). Utterly disgraceful!
I see numerous, in-depth, personalised stories like this about individual Israeli victims in mainstream media, but Palestinians are always depicted in a more generalised way, as though they are an amorphous group who are expected to suffer... www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-m...

"The private sector needs NHS funding to be diverted and NHS staff to reduce their NHS hours in order to staff ‘spare capacity’. Feeding the [private sector] parasite undermines the health of the NHS host.”

And there it is.

Netanyahu's govt has put sanctions on the Israeli newspaper Haaretz for its criticisms of Israel's behaviour.

Sanctions include prohibiting all public institutions from communicating with the paper.

This profoundly undermines democracy.

I live in literal Pontefract. Your colleagues are correct.
I just offered my colleagues some black liquorice (Haribo Pontefract cakes) and no one wanted one.

Cutting off aid for the victims of genocide because a court said something you don't like about the state genociding them is pretty evil.
