‘We are dying slowly, save us’ How can the government stand by & not respond to this appeal from the mothers of starving children in Gaza. For humanity’s sake, if Netanyahu won’t open borders, UK should break the blockade by sea with a fleet of aid ships. theguardian.com/world/2025/aug…

Alongside nearly 200 other international journalists, I have signed the #FreedomToReport #GazaMission petition. Our Gazan colleagues are doing an amazing job, but we need Israel to allow us to enter Gaza now. To do our job - to report. freedomtoreport.org

This unfolding horror exposes the hypocrisy of our government, and condemns it for the ages. Meanwhile, the Met are preparing to arrest people for carrying placards in support of Palestine Action. theguardian.com/world/2025/aug…

I wish this man were the Prime Minister.

First govt claimed they got that ludicrous £100bn to nationalise the water industry came from a think tank report. Then it claimed didn't because the idea was totally rubbish, transpired the report had been bought and paid for by water companies. Then it claimed it had been

Netanyahu is a monster. Resisting his forced starvation of an entire people is the moral test of our times, and our spineless government is failing it.

I keep hearing “we want our country back”. Yeah we all do. How’s about being able to buy a home on one wage? Or wages even being liveable? What about same day GP appointments? Or ambulances arriving within minutes? Clean rivers and beaches? I could go on and on. But I’ll tell one

If Gaza were a European city and its people were European, the world would have hit the panic button long ago. There’d be emergency UN sessions, military intervention, wall-to-wall media coverage, and global outrage. But because it’s Palestinians, the world watches in silence

The The Guardian is 18 months late to this story, which is a national scandal. It neglects to mention Declassified UK and Matt Kennard have been reporting it throughout and Jeremy Corbyn has regularly asked questions in parliament. theguardian.com/politics/2025/…

Not a single new reservoir built in England for 30 years. ❌ 3 billion litres of water lost from leaking pipes every day. ❌ What's the private water sector's solution? Hosepipe bans and ruining rare river ecosystems. 🤯 We need public ownership now.

It’s not enough to condemn Israel's plans to occupy more Palestinian land. The government must apply concrete pressure to end this genocide: stop arms sales and military collaboration, impose sanctions on Israel's economy and recognise Palestine without further delay.

Why is Angela Rayner rubber-stamping the sell off of ANY allotments? We need more not fewer Allotments help with cost of living, food insecurity, physical + mental health, climate STOP SELLING OFF THE FAMILY SILVER, end austerity, fund councils properly weownit.org.uk/news/hands-off…

I am opposed to flogging off alotments. They are precious community assets - often in working class communities - which we have been bequeathed by previous generations and which we ought to hold in trust for future generations.

The IDF is engaged in a wanton slaughter of unarmed and starving civilians desperately seeking food- and we still do nothing concrete to sanction Netanyahu or treat him like the War Criminal he is.

Carl Sagan was so prescient🎯

This is exactly right, and it makes me despair. Part of the problem is the total absence of fair-minded but accurate assessment in the broadcast media of what is happening.

Golf has nothing to recommend it.

I've long campaigned for a Wealth Tax - and it’s great to see the call growing stronger by the day. A 2% Wealth Tax on assets over £10 million could raise £24 BILLION per year. And polls show that 75% of the public supports a wealth tax! Together, we can win this!

Utterly absurd. Appalling overreach by the Met in the face of peaceful protest at an increasingly incoherent govt position on Palestine. theguardian.com/world/2025/aug…
