Israel’s war aims are “total annihilation” of Hamas. But assassinations of Hamas leaders has not led to their capitulation. Instead they react as “freedom fighters” and vow never to surrender. Given Israel’s brutality, is that a surprise?

There’s too much sloppy thinking in Labour. Pharma companies want to sell weight loss meds. Think how many people are overweight and unemployed! PS: what about the unemployed with mental health, alcohol, drugs and homeless? Ah not our problem.

How did we get to the situation where rioters are allowed to justify themselves as expressing “a reasonable point of view and those who have concerns over the ecology are thrown in jail for four years or more!

So many people and institutions are struggling with a lack of hope. And this @conservative government has squeezed out virtually every ounce of hope. So many charities are focusing simply on survival, there’s nothing left to try for. They’ve become “hopeless”

The Israeli government is launching the most dangerous stage of its genocide on Palestinians. 🧵

The UK Government is trying to pass new laws that would criminalise sleeping on the streets with a fine up to £2,500, or even prison.

Nothing angers me more than those who are using the plight of Palestinians for their own nefarious ends. This applies primarily to Iran and its proxies. The best way to pull the rug out from under Iran is to achieve an immediate bilateral ceasefire and a two state solution.

Quite staggering that neither the European boss of Fujitsu Patterson or the chief executive of Post Office Read could answer very basic questions from MPs about when their organisations knew about flaws in the Horizon system, when their managers were aware sub postmasters’ work stations could be accessed by remote IT workers and so on. The question for them is why they would not have personally have acquired such important facts if they want the world to believe their institutions are truly sorry and have learned the lessons.

One of the truly depressing aspects of the last fourteen years of Tory rule is the manifest lack of comprehension of or respect for the rule of law, the adversarial justice system, or the separation of powers between government and the courts. It worsens daily.

Just heard the Home Secretary stand up in Parliament and declare that "the British people support the Rwanda plan". I'm sick of these guys telling me what I support. I do not support the "Rwanda plan". If you don't either, please retweet.
