Ex-BBC presenter exposes how the BBC gets you to care about Israeli victims, but not Palestinians.

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine.
ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about?

VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

Blumenthal: "What world is he living in? It is not only contrary to the facts and the truth but utterly despicable. A disgusting betrayal of a country that has bled and fought and died for freedom ... the president's surrender is pathetic and weak."

East Lothian Council confirmed they’ve only had ‘one informal brief discussion/meeting’ with the Scottish Government about teacher numbers since 2022, with ‘no minutes or notes’ taken.

They also state workforce planning discussions ‘are not routinely held’ with the Scottish Government or COSLA.

I really like this resource. One of those resources which immediately prompts thinking on the part of children, whether they want or not! You can’t help but engage.

"Gaza had a functioning education system. Prior to October 7th 2023, children in Gaza were attending school."

Palestinian children have been without school for more than a year, and the impact is enormous.
