About time.

Must attend to causes of homelessness - poverty, power of landlords, low benefits.

Must provide public shelters for those on hard times, reintegrate people on hard times.

No actual writer wants this shit. Please stop forcing it on us.
The new Google AI functionality in Docs is total mind-ruining shit. Hit enter in docs, it takes over your cursor to offer to help you write. Every. Time. You. Hit. Enter. Do you know how annoying that is when you are writing something? It's someone interrupting you every minute. MAKE IT STOP.

This is awful. Is the government/DFE seriously considering removing statutory support & plans for children with special needs in mainstream schools? It would cause extreme issues for the children involved

People in Gaza are struggling to access vital care. The remaining hospitals, mostly partially functional, are constantly overwhelmed.

Repeated strikes on healthcare facilities are yet more examples of the Israeli authorities making the Strip unlivable.

Doctors Without Borders-supported Nasser hospital is now the only public hospital in Khan Younis, southern Gaza.

It was also hit on the same day a few hours before the Gaza European Hospital for the second time in less than two months.

#Gaza: The Gaza European Hospital, in Khan Younis, the last facility providing cancer-treatment across the Strip, is now out of service after Israeli forces struck it on May 13.

This was one of the last remaining lifelines in Gaza's shattered healthcare system.

Thames Water’s CEO defends £195,000 bonus just three months into the job.

Shameless.

The cult of bonuses is nothing to do with performance. It is for boosting profits by fleecing customers.

Nothing will change until water is nationalised and customers vote on exec pay.
Thames Water apologises to customers but defends bonuses
Bonus payments were defended by company management as the chief executive can receive up to 156% of their salary as a bonus, while frontline workers can only earn between 3% and 6%.

I think it's important the media start discussing the character, morals and beliefs of Starmer, a man complicit in genocide. What sort of person is complicit in genocide? & How does the act of that further affect someone's character. All his decisions stem from his character.
