If there is war between #Iran and #Israel , the vast majority of the victims will be innocent civilians. I refuse to support the forces of either Israel or Iran. The people of all countries have more in common with each other than with rulers and generals who kill in their name.

God, grant me the serenity to tweet and engage in constructive, helpful and kind ways, the restraint to step away from trolls and unhelpful interactions, and the wisdom to know the difference

Amen

It's utterly hilarious that transphobes are STILL MAD at Daniel Radcliffe for supporting trans people and not changing his mind.

Is it just sinking in that everyone isn't going to roll over and surrender?

Ever since Brexit I’ve wanted to write this book. Very excited that this time next week it will finally be published! We need better stories about who we are than the exceptionalism & imperial nostalgia of the Right. This is hopefully a start url.uk.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/eegdCGv3jf18…

Week 295. Join us next Friday 19/4 for the global climate strike! In Stockholm we meet at 10 on Odenplan.

Another day under occupation

Conservative politician blusters over Thames Water sewage scandal & 40% bill increase with zero mention (or apology) that this results from Tory policy to privatise water.

The Green Party believes public services belong in public hands!

Is it too much to ask for any journalist to grill Wes Streeting on his substantial donations from Private Healthcare lobbyists and magnates??

This is the future Health Secretary ffs and if he's so committed to the NHS then he'd never accept such donations

Our public services are in crisis, there is a huge housing shortage, our transport network is shambolic, the planet is under threat and ordinary people are suffering a fall in living standards.
Now is not the time to increase military spending.

Join me and help get this petition for the UK Government to immediately revoke all arms exports licences to Israel to 100,000 which will force a debate in Parliament. To sign - petition.parliament.uk/signatures/141…

A few people’ve asked about the impact of the Daily Mail’s wokesconegate, on sales of National Trust scones. The ‘scone per visitor’ trends in the 10 days following the news were:

Cheese (non-vegan) = no change
Fruit = no change
Plain = 15% increase

Victory to woke scones 🫡

Tens of thousands of unpaid carers looking after disabled, frail or ill relatives are being forced to repay huge sums to the government and threatened with criminal prosecution after unwittingly breaching earnings rules by just a few pounds a week. theguardian.com/society/2024/a…

Twice during this interview - completely unchallenged - the Prime Minister referred to the ECHR as a “foreign court”

The European Court of Human Rights IS NOT A FOREIGN COURT - it’s an international court which we signed up to!

A new study has shown that the best way to cope with feeling angry is to write everything down then throw it away. Apparently it works particularly well with WhatsApps

Nuclear weapons are not safe in anybody's hands. They are a danger to us all. Every nuclear weapon is a threat not to one country or another, but to every human being and other life on Earth.
#ScrapTrident #EverydayMilitarism

Welcome to the #Labour Party, selling out to militarism since 1914.

Other parties only talk the talk and fail to show up for this crucial hustings arranged by Inclusion London. London Green Party mayoral candidate Zoë Garbett & two City Hall Greens Caroline Russell & Zack Polanski all show up.

The Greens care far more about inclusion in our city

So Zoë Garbett of The Green Party was the only actual candidate to turn up?! The other candidates just sent representatives.

A reminder that the vast majority of people whining about Universal Credit claimants have clearly never been on Universal Credit at all.

It's not a holiday or a doss, it's essentially a job in itself, it's demeaning and you're treated like inconveniences at every turn.

🚨A new report has found that 76% of online articles frame Israel’s genocide in Gaza as the “Israel-Hamas war”.

In TV reporting, Israeli perspectives have been referenced almost three times more than Palestinian ones.

👉UK media is on Israel's side
