40 years ago today Ki and Viv Stanshall booked me and Tony Slattery to do a midnight Halloween show on their theatre boat Thekla Bristol in Bristol docks. We stayed overnight and had a seance with Vivian & Ki to contact the boat's two ghosts, who had been disturbing the crew.

Devaststing news about Tony. We did our first show together in 1981 and we giggled like kids whenever we met up over the years. RIP.

⚠️ #WestBank update: 🔴 40,000 Palestinians have been forcibly displaced in Jenin, Tulkarem and Tubas. 🔴 On 9 February Israeli forces shot and killed a woman, eight months pregnant, as she and her husband tried to leave Nur Shams refugee camp. Her unborn child was also killed.

The doors to the Rambling Club have opened once again and this time Tony is joined by his friend and colleague, the wonderful Richard Vranch now posts on Bluesky! A rather special episode of Tony’s #Number1 podcast. Links in the first reply ⬇️

Steve Bannon, after calling for Trump to be President for life, did a Nazi salute on stage at CPAC. Nazism has officially taken over the GOP. The few remaining conservatives have a choice: either leave the party and obstruct it—or choose to be complicit. x.com/julianfeeld/st…

Israel’s decision to cut off electricity to Gaza’s main operational desalination plant, a week after it halted the entry of all humanitarian aid and commercial supplies, including fuel and food, violates international humanitarian law and is further evidence of Israel’s genocide

This week, Israel killed 4 more Palestinians in the West Bank as it continues its illegal invasion. Meanwhile, Israel settlers attacked Palestinians with clubs & batons. Israel is doing this so it can steal more Palestinian land. This is ethnic cleansing. ow.ly/Fi1N50Vgv7V

MAP is horrified by Israel’s renewed military bombardment on #Gaza. Israel has directly collapsed this fragile ceasefire in the most deadly fashion, plunging Palestinians back into an unrelenting assault. Read our full statement: ow.ly/7e6G50VjQa5

⚠️ #WestBank update: 🔴 Most in the northern Jordan Valley are suffering acute water shortages due to Israeli demolitions and settler attacks. 🔴 On 5 May, Israeli authorities demolished 85% of homes in the Khallet Athaba’ community, leaving them without water and electricity.

Israel is using starvation as a weapon of war in Gaza. More that ONE MILLION CHILDREN are facing hunger daily. The blockade on #Gaza must end now.
