Literally the only time he mentions Israel - the actual perpetrator of these crimes - is to state that Israel has agreed to air drops. These air drops are a tiny pin prick, inefficient, and literally kill Palestinians when falling on them. Completely and utterly deranged
The appalling scenes in Gaza are unrelenting. The UK will pull every lever we have to get food and lifesaving support to Palestinians, and we will evacuate children who need urgent medical assistance. This humanitarian catastrophe must end.
From the man who said Israel had the right to cut off power and water to Gaza.
The suffering and starvation unfolding in Gaza is unspeakable and indefensible.
He has quite the neck, hasn't he?

'A Textbook Case of Genocide'. This was an article written by Raz Segal, the towering Israeli-American associate professor of genocide and Holocaust studies. Guess when it was written? October 13, 2023. This crime was obvious from the very start. jewishcurrents.org/a-textbook-cas…
Al Jazeera Media Network urgently calls upon the journalistic community, press freedom organisations, and relevant legal bodies to take decisive action to halt the forced starvation and crimes against journalists and media professionals in Gaza. The journalists on the ground,…
I have never felt so shaken. Children are dying of hunger. Falling one after another, like petals of a dying flower. Under our watch. How do you sleep, Presidents, Foreign Ministers, political leaders, diplomats, civil servants - doing nothing to stop Israel’s starvation…
The sheer intellectual collapse you have to experience to be faced with 122 international aid organisations telling you the same thing... ISRAEL IS STARVING GAZANS... only to decide they are ALL lying & that actually Benjamin Netanyahu, on trial for fraud, is telling the truth.
For every politician and journalist who supported Israel's onslaught, or stayed silent: This photograph should haunt you for the rest of your life. You will never scrub the shame away. No future achievement, however great, will ever erase what you helped inflict on Gaza.
Remember, the bands and the chants are the dangerous ones, not a state openly murdering civilians in aid lines (and admitting it) and starving a population
Starvation in Gaza is destroying communities – and will leave generational scars theguardian.com/world/2025/jul…
Would give the world to see my Son’s records from Bessborough.
So experts can view the files...but what about the people who they relate to? When do we reach that point? irishexaminer.com/news/arid-4166…
This is devastating. Over a hundred BBC staff have signed a letter declaring they've been forced to do PR for Israel. Just the latest chapter in the biggest scandal of Western journalism of our time owenjones.news/p/bbc-staff-we…
What an absolute farce. And this is just one site that has driven the media coverage, everywhere else is ignored to begin with. Zero political will and we will be how many more years waiting for the modicum of human decency towards people

Thankyou! hundreds still missing completely at Bessbrough where are they? No relative should be left not knowing or being forced to leave an infant or mother behind institutions walls
With a superb 58-second last lap, European U-23 champion Sophie O'Sullivan closes her college career with the NCAA 1500m title. She joins her mother Sonia, Rhasidat Adeleke, Valerie McGovern and Mary Cullen as the only Irish women to have won at the event
How many years did it take? And not a peep about a single other site. Tuam was not the only Mother and Baby Home where large numbers of children died. x.com/rtenews/status…
Preliminary works to enable the excavation of the former mother and baby home in Tuam, Co Galway, are due to begin today rte.ie/news/ireland/2…

I regret some of my posts about President @realDonaldTrump last week. They went too far.
