What a union!
Our delegation is off! #WeDemandBetter 🛤🚆📢
Your media round this morning was nothing but weak statements of mild mannered measures and some performative hand-wringing. It’s been 20 months. For as long as you continue arming Israel you cannot wash the blood of Palestinian children from those hands.
The horror in Gaza must end. We're stepping up our humanitarian efforts with new healthcare, food and water for Gazans. We need an immediate ceasefire now, the release of all hostages and a surge in aid.
Solidarity to Resident Doctors @BMAResidents striking this week in defence of pay, conditions & our NHS! #PayRestoration They’re not just facing down Starmer, Streeting & the Labour Government - but also the media determined to demonise workers exercising their right to strike.
... the grotesque spectacle of a Labour council – a Labour council - scuttling to the High Court so that it can hand out redundancy notices to its own workers. Victory to #BrumBinStrikers Birmingham bin strikes lorry blocking sends council back to court share.google/fyYl842sXKzgJn…

Your move @Keir_Starmer
Fidèle à son engagement historique pour une paix juste et durable au Proche-Orient, j’ai décidé que la France reconnaîtra l’État de Palestine. J’en ferai l’annonce solennelle à l’Assemblée générale des Nations unies, au mois de septembre prochain.…

Another nuclear flight to RAF Lakenheath and Keir Starmer still hasn't come clean to the public about the presence of US nuclear weapons in Britain. It's time to #EndNukeSecrecy
Well, well. The C-17 that last week flew a direct flight from the US Air Force’s nuke storage site near Albuquerque to Lakenheath, possibly with a load of B61-12 bombs, has just left Albuquerque again heading east on what appears to be another “hot cargo” mission to Europe.
A week on from the arrival of US nuclear bombs to RAF Lakenheath and Keir Starmer still has not made a statement to the public. 61% of us don't want US nukes on British soil. It's time to end the secrecy and for MPs to vote on this dangerous deployment. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
The average EU govt spending on social welfare is 19.2% of GDP, ranging from 8.1% to 25.7%. The UK spends 10.6% yet govts constantly cut benefits and right wing media says welfare is unaffordable. Taxing the UK rich is off the political agenda. ec.europa.eu/eurostat/stati…

Imagine a massive post-Oct 7 Cablegate-style document drop. It would undoubtedly show direct US management of Israel’s Gaza genocide, from the initial phases of mass murder to the minutiae of the current starvation policy. It would expose top Biden and Trump officials as the…
🚨Tory MP Kit Malthouse asks UK foreign secretary David Lammy about Britain's complicity in the Gaza genocide: "Can he not see the personal risk to him given our international obligations that he may end up in the Hague?"
David Lammy says it would be wholly inappropriate for the British public to know if US nuclear weapons are now stationed on UK soil.
This law is going to become unenforceable and then @YvetteCooperMP will have to resign.
BREAKING: Four arrested on terror charges in Liverpool, including local legend Audrey White, her brother and a local priest. They were detained for holding signs during the local protest which said "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action."
