#TheApprentice the least credible firings I’ve ever witnessed. Fredrick for “team dynamics”? Not firing Dean when the failure was undeniably his fault?

Yesterday David Lammy was unequivocal and clear that Israel is breaking international law in Gaza. Today Number 10 contradicts that and says it is merely “at risk of breaching” the law. It is an extraordinary position to put the Foreign Secretary in - who will now have to say why

Andrew Bailey also thinks the agreement is good. The idea that you and others perpetuate about achieving amazing deals just leads to no deals. And no, no deal is famously NOT better than an OK deal.

What an Orwellian world we live in. Israel launches a clearly illegal and unprovoked attack on Iran, in violation of the U.N. charter, and with no imminent Iran attack in sight, or any Iranian nukes developed, and its western allies come out to say they reaffirm *Israel’s* right

Manifestly unlawful. Israeli journalists, especially those working for public broadcasters, should condemn this immediately. Iran must not retaliate in kind. This downward spiral must end.

A generic reference to Israel's right of self-defense would be obnoxious. A specific statement that Israel's attack on Iran is a legitimate exercise of its right of self-defense would be disastrous. The entire UN Charter framework is at stake.

‘There’s only one reason for this - and it's race.’ Shelagh Fogarty explains why she is so ‘frustrated’ by the public’s reaction to the grooming gangs scandal.

Israel's letter to the UN Security Council is legal gibberish. There was no imminent armed attack by Iran on June 12, and Israel's use of force is not directed at Iran's support for Hezbollah, the Houthis, or Hamas. Israel's use of force was and remains manifestly unlawful.

For the record: A war of aggression against Iran, in violation of the UN Charter and basic tenets of international law, and in the absence of any imminent threat or concrete evidence from international inspection bodies and intelligence agencies of the existence of an Iranian

“Do you think Israel is committing war crimes?” “Yes, I do. I think it's absolutely plain that they are.” Despite Israel’s right to self-defence after Oct 7, its response is ‘entirely disproportionate’ and violates international law, says Lord Sumption. @AyeshaHazarika

Lammy "The grotesque spectacle of kids holding out their hand for food & being shot" Are you imposing sanctions on Israel? No Are you halting all arms sales? No Are you stopping all trade? No Are you ending all military assistance? No Are you expelling the Israeli ambassador? No

Those 40 'top lawyers' who claim to have discovered international law when it comes to recognising the State of Palestine; what have they to say about the breaching of international law every day by Israel? theguardian.com/world/live/202…

Natural disasters are terrible. But this is anything but natural. There is nothing more tragic than a world that passively observes the infliction of such inhumanity on a defenceless population for such a period of time. What’s worse, large swathes consider it justified.

“Our analysis of the food packages supplied by the GHF shows that their distribution plan would lead to mass starvation, even if it was able to function without the appalling levels of violence that have been reported,” the [Famine Review Committee] said.

Once upon a time the BBC would have been producing journalism like this. BBC Panorama would have been leading the way. With some honourable exceptions, mainly veteran journalists who know what they are doing, the licence payer has been badly let down by cowardly BBC bosses.

90% of the hostages that have been released were released under the 2023 and 2025 ceasefires. The previous 11-week blockage (March-May 2025), current restrictions, and continued military operations serve a different aim. Collective punishment has been plain since October 2023.
