Pausing to vaccinate children against polio so they can survive long enough to be bombed into pieces the next day. That’s not humanitarianism, that’s sadism.

The widespread devastation and massacres of the Israeli army in #Jenin and other parts of occupied northern West Bank, where Hamas is not ruling, are a powerful reminder that Hamas is just the last excuse for the State of #Israel to wreak the Palestinian territory havoc.

Justice for Grenfell. 72 people lost their lives in this preventable tragedy. Victims of corporate greed and institutional neglect.

No words can fully convey the depravity of what is happening in Israeli prisons where Palestinians are beaten, starved, tortured, sodomised and sometimes murdered. This is all well documented, yet silence from world leaders. My latest for DoubleDown News doubledown.news/watch/2024/sep…

Well said Ellie Chowns - this is a real litmus test to see whether Labour will stand up for civil liberties & human rights & repeal these draconian laws

Come work with me in this fantastic role, working on one of the biggest economic issues right now.

I'm no economist, but if cutting winter fuel payment saves £1.4BN a year, and the energy companies are raking in over £1BN a week in profits, maybe an 'easier decision' would be to TAX THE PROFITS OF THE F*CKING ENERGY COMPANIES to cover the cost, rather than freeze pensioners?!

Apartheid Israel is accelerating the ethnic cleansing of Palestine, and committing acts of genocide on the way. How long will it take to UN Member states to impose sanctions on this serial violator of int'l law?

This would mean just 0.3% of all UK millionaires leaving if taxes on the super-rich go up

"By organising across and beyond workplaces, trade unions can unlock new possibilities for a just transition to a sustainable economy" hilary wainwright and Jake Woodier on the crucial role of organised labour in decarbonization redpepper.org.uk/economics-unio…

We need to reject this individualist mindset that pits young against old and public sector workers against vulnerable pensioners. We have the resources in this country to ensure people are paid a decent wage and our elderly can retire with dignity. We lack the political will.

BREAKING: The British Trades Union Congress, representing 48 affiliated unions with a total of about 5.5 million members have unanimously passed a motion demanding an end to all arms trading with Israel over the genocide in Gaza. #TUC2024

"Overcoming the climate crisis requires a fundamental shift in the balance of power, both within production and in relation to the state." hilary wainwright and Jake Woodier on why organized labour plays a crucial role in averting climate catastrophe redpepper.org.uk/economics-unio…

Britain faces a pivotal moment. Our infrastructure is creaking, public services are collapsing, and we are falling behind other countries in the race to decarbonise. We can’t afford another lost decade. We need to start investing in the future.

How would the world react if hundreds of explosions went off in unison in New York City, Washington, Paris, or London? Eternal shame upon the news outlets framing this as an attack against combatants. These blasts all occurred in civilian areas. This is terrorism.

This is not a “privacy breach”: injuring 2750+ people as they go about their daily lives is an unconscionable terrorist attack.

There is no way that what Israel just pulled in Lebanon is not a war crime. It is 100% a war crime. It is an act of terror and attempting to justify it by saying the target was Hezbollah when they killed children, medics, doctors, civilians is not going to work. Horrific.

International Humanitarian Law has always been poorly enforced; Israel has forever ignored it. However, if Israel gets away with importing and exploding thousands of IED’s into a sovereign UN member state, this endangers the whole world. IHL will be unequivocally meaningless.
