If we commonly describe Caesar’s campaign in Gaul as genocidal, following Pliny, how can it be controversial to use that word for Israel’s campaign in Gaza? andreacapussela.substack.com/p/caesar-gaz...

lets see the level of cheating that this bastion of middle eastern democracy will bring out
Israel is just 2 days away from a critical election, and thousands of protesters are filling the streets of Tel Aviv demanding Netanyahu’s removal! They’re demanding accountability for October 7 security failures and an independent commission of inquiry.

The numbers aren't capped as such under free movement, but people cannot move solely to claim benefits and serious criminals can be expelled or refused entry - so "unlimited" is misleading
Laura Kuessenberg promoting her morning programme on BBC News attacks Andy Burnham's comments on renewing relationships with EU stating this will mean 'unlimited immigration going backwards and forwards.' How does she get away with that?

We need to distance ourselves from them, it’s worried me for a while, how reliant and somewhat subservient we’ve become with them. It won’t be easy but we need to cut the apron strings and build better, more equal ties with Europe and even Canada and Australia/New Zealand.

European Union cares nothing about what happens to Palestinians at the hands of genocidal Apartheid #Israel. EU cares only about next aid package for Ukraine, next round of sanctions in support of it. Europe is racist & Zionist. www.middleeastmonitor.com/20261023-net... #FreePalestine #Zionism

Nigel Farage’s attack on the RNLI and co is a new low even for this bottom-feeder. He wants to prosecute anyone who saves lives of people that he doesn't like. Desperate Farage diverts attention from investigations by pledging laws that can't work. archive.ph/5UYnG/

Perhaps an "honest discussion about freedom of movement" could start with the Home Office. Will the EU listen while the UK has such cruel & archaic immigration policies, especially towards EU citizens already supposedly "settled'? www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Corporate penetration of the NHS’: Revolving door raises concerns over ADHD review. Instead of expanding NHS capacity, govts hand contacts to private providers making vast profits. The same providers meet ministers to influence terms of reviews. More privatisations follow. Public money buys less.

How the FUCK is this legal?
Beware of finance industry lobbying. It hired PwC (the firm that delivers dud audits) to produce a report, claiming that UK banks face highest rates of tax. The report included taxes not borne by banks. Omitted countries that levy higher rates of taxes. Integrity never gets in the way of profits.
