Netanyahu is trying to replace social media images of suffering Palestinians and the destruction of their homes… with those of suffering Israelis and their destroyed homes. So he needs to: 1) bait Iran to attack and 2) cut all comms out of Gaza. Our mainstream media will swallow it whole.

Prof Deenan Pillay @deenan.bsky.social , former chair of @independentsage.bsky.social , is an expert virologist never afraid to call things out. He was right to oppose arbitrary reductions in COVID isolation times, and he's right about this. £bns wasted on private industry, no UK legacy 🤬

"Shameful" The Inquiry hears from expert virologist Prof. Deenan Pillay that the Government chose to spend billions on private consultants from Deloitte instead of listening to experts. The labs they set up have since been dismantled. 'We've been left with nothing'.

My Dad died 15 months ago & spent last year of his life in a London nursing home. He was bed bound, blind, deaf, with dementia and various health issues. Almost all his carers & nurses were non UK born and they were all brilliant. They treated my mother like family (and still do to this day) 1/3

Amos Goldberg, Professor of Genocide Studies at The Hebrew University in Jerusalem "Yes, it is genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion. Jewish history will henceforth be stained" Is there anyone more qualified and unbiased?

Two German tourists went on holiday to Hawaii for 3 weeks. But they never left the airport. They were arrested, interrogated for 7.5 hours, accused of intending to work illegally with zero proof. They were held in prison for 3 days then deported. DO NOT TRAVEL TO THE USA.

Trump’s tariffs and Brexit red tape are hammering British manufacturers—I saw it firsthand today with @iansollom.bsky.social at a factory making vital components for the car industry. We need to stand up to Trump’s trade war and secure a UK–EU customs union to protect British businesses.

Middle-aged and older adults who sought hospital or emergency room care because of cannabis use were almost twice as likely to develop dementia over the next five years, compared with similar people in the general population, a large Canadian study reported on Monday.

Children’s squeaky plastic toys, trucks, blocks and dolls contain chemicals which are harmful to health, such as PFAS, also known as ‘forever chemicals'. This deal is a win for EU lawmakers, who have been pushing to ban PFAS in all toys sold in the bloc in the future, despite industry backlash.
