Gross disparity between coverage of luxury yaught sinking and refugees dying regularly in Mediterranean (3,041 last year). All such deaths are tragic but the difference in coverage is dystopian.

Israel detonating thousands of bombs in Lebanon knowing that this will harm and kill children, civilians, medics and passersby going about their daily lives in markets and on the street is in fact an act of terrorism.

Israel’s genocidal mayhem has given me a hideous understanding into the great horrors of the past. How could so many people who regard themselves as decent, humane, ‘moderate’ become complicit in unspeakable atrocities? It’s something I’ve always wondered. After all, only a

My former student, Yousef Al-Helou, shot many hours of footage of Gaza in the years before the genocide. He has turned it into a film, to help preserve the memory of Gaza. youtube.com/watch?v=xpdFJT…

The world has witnessed the government of Israel’s genocide against Palestinians in occupied Gaza. Month after month, the government of Israel has treated Palestinians in Gaza as a subhuman group unworthy of human rights and dignity, demonstrating its specific intent to

Hear from our Reader in Political Economy, Gareth Dale for his insight into the Great Depression. How did it come about about? How did it change both the lives of ordinary people and capital accumulation? 🎧shorturl.at/M8ovx

Proud to see hat tmy undergraduate student Lana has summarised her brilliant dissertation - on the strategic crisis in Germany's Letzte Generation climate activist movement - as an article in The Ecologist. theecologist.org/2025/jun/20/af…

This, I co-wrote with Marianne Brown, argues the UK-EU trade deal - being negotiated this summer - should be used to close the border for soil imports/exports. Keir Starmer's govt, ofc, will do the opposite. theguardian.com/environment/20…
