One Canadian Israeli, who stayed away for 20 years, is returning because “the Israel that I grew up in is disappearing.” Like us, they are done with the corruption, the far-right policies, and the endless wars. And they’re paying their own way to end it. How powerful is that?

🔥 HOLY HELL: 1000s of Israeli expats are flying home from Canada, the U.S., and Europe — spending thousands of their own money — to vote Netanyahu out.

Labour now briefing young people won't get the same minimum wage uplift. Even Starmer didn't break this pledge. Workers rights mean same rights, pay & conditions, same rate for the same job. What does this Labour government have against young people? inews.co.uk/news/politic...

I live on doorstep of ‘cluster’ of Data Centres, in Blyth Northumberland. I only learnt recently a previously planned energy site was to be used to house these toxic monsters. An area of high poverty levels… Most locals even now know nothing about them! europeanpowell.substack.com/p/zoned-by-t...

Respect to you for making the attempt. Naomi Klein had the opposite problem: being held up by Israeli forces when trying to get out, after a visit to talk to the Palestinian people (as explained in her book Doppelganger). Perhaps Israeli paranoia will be the undoing of their genocidal maniacs.

What's happening here in Palestine is unjust. We've just witnessed what Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch and many others have called a genocide unfold in Gaza. We came here to show the world, and to show solidarity with the Palestinian people. The Israeli government didn't allow that.

Sky News inadvertently exposes the #ZionismIsRacism in control of the 4th Estate
Ali Fortescue to Ellie Chowns on the group Greens4Palestine: "This group obviously has a big influence over your partys direction... do you think they should be kicked out of the party?" Can you imagine a journalist asking, should Labour Friends of Israel be kicked out of Labour? Of course you cant

Antisemitism reviewer David Bell said Muslim schools could threaten UK's 'coherence' As the UK antisemitism report in schools falls apart, complied by Bell, it it worth noting only 3% of Muslim children attend Muslim faith schools. www.middleeasteye.net/news/antisem...

The Labour Party is now the enemy of the NHS.
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.

First they erased a ‘Protect the Dolls’ t-shirt from Strictly Come Dancing. Now they’ve erased Pride badges from University Challenge. The BBC are saying that our visibility as LGBTQ people is a political issue. Meanwhile they’ve commissioned a 2-part series on JK Rowling. Impartial? My arse!

Oh no 😭 One of the last members of the USS Enterprise has left. RIP Walter Marvin Koenig (1936-2026) Star Trek, Babylon 5, Moontrap, The Starlost, The Questor Tapes, Futurama... What a career in sci-fi. I will miss Pavel Chekov. Again 😞
My pal Danielle Koenig shared that her father Walter Koenig passed away last night at age 90. A performer whose kindness and warmth shone through the screen. He will be well remembered.

The media does a terrible job of explaining about NHS privatisation, and this is awful because it’s so important that the public knows what’s going on🚨 I’ve started a series of videos explaining the situation. If you click here you can watch the 1st one! jujuliagrace.substack.com/p/a-light-up...
