“Words exist for these actions, even if the corporate media censors anyone who dares to use them. War Crimes. Terrorism. Ethnic cleansing. Crimes against humanity. Genocide.” mailchi.mp/commondreams...

Yes: “The world should be watching closely: it may be witnessing the start of a very different kind of politics.” But also very reminiscent of the 1960s, such as the Provos in my mother town, Amsterdam. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Disgusting and close to corrupt: “38 ministers, senior civil servants and SPADs [took up] positions in AI companies between Jul 2024 and Sept 2026 [while] government departments [did not] engage meaningfully with stakeholders outside the technology industry.” www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

I've just signed the petition demanding the PM scraps rip-off daily standing charges on gas AND electricity bills. Want to see your energy bills go down in an instant? Add your name:

Vučić out! Serbian people showing how it is done. Corrupted autocrats can be ousted by democratic forces. Determination, stamina and courage carry the day!

“90% of young Europeans favour greater unity and 78% want the EU to have more resources to act. This gives Europe an opportunity, but also a responsibility, to turn that support into tangible improvements in their lives. That is the real test in the years ahead.” www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

“We face such a daunting array of external and internal threats, that everything we’ve achieved since 1945 – the Europe which many in your generation took for granted – is now existentially threatened.” timothygartonash.substack.com/p/lionel-mes...

I just signed a petition calling on the EU to defend the International Criminal Court against Trump’s attacks. The EU has a powerful tool that could protect international law - mass public pressure will force them to act. Join me and add your name now: action.wemove.eu/sign/2026-10...

Perceptive: “[The Putin-Xi-Trump summit may] come to define this era when the rules-based international order was torn apart and a new, uncertain period began to form.” www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Ik tekende zojuist een petitie die de EU oproept om het Internationaal Strafhof te verdedigen tegen Trumps aanvallen. De EU heeft een krachtig middel om het internationaal recht te beschermen – massale publieke druk dwingt ze tot actie. Doe mee, teken nu: action.wemove.eu/sign/2026-10...

Well said. @MichaelHiggins: “The European Union, both as it is and into the future, has been severely damaged by the absence of any moral position [on #Gaza]. How can these people be aware of all of this and not call it a #genocide?" www.irishexaminer.com/news/spotlig...

@mark-carney.bsky.social supports genocide

The EU prefers to support Israel.

This was always the folly of Rutte's PURL program, in which Europeans act as a middleman buying US weapons and sending them to Ukraine (to make up for the US not sending them aid any more). Europeans paid for these weapons. The US isn't delivering them.

"The 'Stolpersteine' (stumbling stones) serve as a daily reminder of individual fates. This is so important. Such personal remembrance and commemoration must not disappear from public life."

“[Foreign students] come, fund our universities, spend money in the UK and then go. What kind of country would not want that? A mad country, and that indeed is what we have become.” iandunt.substack.com/p/the-fall-i...

Transatlantic relations are rapidly changing, but one area escapes “de-risking” from the US: controversial data transfers and law enforcement arrangements. On the contrary: they are shifting into higher gear. Why is Europe quietly surrendering? My blog: sophieintveld.substack.com/p/the-quiet-...

Not only is Israel an Apartheid state, but it’s an Apartheid state that committed genocide and is led by politicians who openly advocate ethnic cleansing, including of Palestinian citizens of Israel. Israel is so far worse than ‘just’ an Apartheid state.

Deborah Lipstadt is engaging on a Twitter-brain level of discourse with maps that look like they were made by small children because that’s the only avenue left for anyone who still seriously believe that Israel isn’t an Apartheid state

Imagine thinking that ‘Arabs can vote’ isn’t something that all those lawyers and human rights researchers have taken into consideration.

Worth noting that folks like Lipstadt never actually engage with the legal definition of Apartheid. There are multiple extremely well-documented reports produced by Palestinian, international and even Israeli human rights orgs that concluded that Israel is an Apartheid state.

“The new report by Amnesty International adds to the growing body of evidence illustrating a systemic effort within the higher education sector to clamp down on Palestine solidarity.” secure.declassifieduk.org/page/email?m...

@australianlabor.bsky.social @albomp.bsky.social #FreePalestine

Yeah. The USA’s largest nursing union is engaging in civil disobedience to protest Palantir. So even more bizarre Europe can’t do more. Actually in general more nurses, more unions, less AI, everywhere please… www.nationalnursesunited.org/press/nurses...

Palantir’s leaders are on record opposing democracy. They hate the EU because they view it as too democratic (which is saying something). The fact that the EU still decided to make deals with that evil company is damning in itself. The only way forward is away from Palantir and their ilk.

There is absolutely no reason to believe anything Palantir says. It is extremely frustrating that all of this shit was predictable, and so many people warned against depending on US tech, and we still got here.

So good to hear @zackpolanski.bsky.social cut through the misinformation on LauraK this morning. The Green Party is the only party that fully supports Palestinian Liberation. join.greenparty.org.uk
