The humanitarian system in Gaza is facing a total collapse with unimaginable consequences for more than 2 million civilians. Needs are growing ever more critical & colossal. Food, water, medicine & fuel must be allowed to reach all civilians swiftly, safely & at scale.

The Geneva Conventions "clearly distinguish between...a country’s right to fight in self-defense...and...how a country conducts that fighting....The crux of this is that however legitimate self-defense may be, it can never justify barbarism." theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

Civilians, patients and health workers in Gaza spent the night in darkness and fear. World Health Organization (WHO) reiterates its calls for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire; protection of health facilities, workers and patients; and urgent access for life saving supplies into and throughout Gaza.

“There is no safe place in Gaza & there is no way out” says Volker Türk. Last night’s bombardment & ground operations in Gaza by Israeli forces were reportedly the most intensive yet, taking the crisis to a new level of violence & pain. Continued violence is not the answer.

Something that will make you sick. Both Liz Truss and Boris Johnson are entitled to a £80,000 salary, and £115,000 expenses, every year for the rest of their lives as ex-PM's.

UN Human Rights Chief Volker Türk calls on all parties as well as third States with influence to do all in their power to de-escalate this conflict, and to work toward the goal where Israelis and Palestinians can fully enjoy all human rights and live side by side, in peace.

Sam Smith from medConfidential explains how your private medical data is at risk:

When Sunak promised to cut the NHS waiting list, 7.2 million were waiting for care But right now 7.8 million are waiting In a few months it will likely be more than 8 million We need a Government whose words actually mean something - RT if you agree theguardian.com/society/2023/o…

Urgent - the Palantir NHS data deal is a huge threat to the NHS, but it still hasn’t been signed, and there are reports that the government is now wavering. This is our chance to get it dropped - sign the petition to the health minister now: foxglove.org.uk/campaigns/pala…

The protection of civilians is paramount. The Laws of War establish clear rules to protect human life and respect humanitarian concerns. Those laws cannot be contorted for the sake of expedience.

Nigel Farage, Jacob Rees Mogg, and their friends in Tufton Street, the people who screwed the economy with Brexit, now want to take control of the National Trust. No doubt there's more asset stripping to be done.

Dominic Cummings is going to give evidence to the Covid Inquiry this week. Will he mention how a Covid testing company with just £85 in the bank made £20m in profit after he referred it to the VIP lane? Remind yourself of the details here 👇 goodlaw.social/y6t

This isn’t a freak accident of war where kids are caught in the crossfire or are regrettable collateral damage. This is a strategy Netanyahu is pursuing…indiscriminate bombing to inflict maximal damage and destruction to all in Gaza. It’s what makes it particularly abhorrent.

A political leader who cannot find it within themselves to say clearly that this is wrong has lost their humanity.

Dear GOV.UK I do not consent

Conservative Friends of the Countryside group is more like friends of hunting & landowning elites - seeking to poison agriculture, threaten animal protection & pollute the planet. Why is Chair of *Environment Select Committee* associated with this group? theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/o…

"Please vote for dying with dignity." Well said Prue Leith Tomorrow's landmark vote puts the Isle of Man on a path to become the 1st part of the British Isles to legalise assisted dying. It is up to Tynwald to act and make choice at the end of life a reality. #YesToDignity
