“I will not rest in continuing to pull out all the stops to crack London’s housing crisis.” @MayorofLondon @SadiqKhan announced at Royal Eden Docks this morning that we have hit the hugely ambitious 116,000 affordable homes target. More than 25,000 were started last year alone.

Don't even think about it: the @metpoliceuk are catching brazen criminals on our streets, and keeping the public safe.

Gaza is starving, and yes - Israel is responsible haaretz.com/opinion/editor…

💥Israeli Heritage Minister (I swear) Amihai Eliyahu says "Gaza is being erased, we're wiping out the population." That's a quote.

This week I published @FTMag a profile of Andriy Yermak, the Ukrainian president’s immensely powerful and controversial chief of staff. It was based on interviews with Yermak himself inside his office and at various events where I tagged along with him and his team, as well as…

Israel is a signatory to the 4th Geneva Convention, which explicitly lays out that expectation

So it played out exactly as the United Nations, the World Food Program, and 115 mainstream aid groups said: It was Israeli authorities who were holding up the aid; they held the power to keep it out or let it in.

“In fact, the Israeli military officials said, the UN aid delivery system, which Israel derided and undermined, was largely effective in providing food to Gaza’s desperate and hungry population.”

This is extraordinary. A GHF ex contractor, former US special forces lieutenant-colonel, tells @BowenBBC he never saw brutality against civilians like he did at the hands of the IDF and US contractors in Gaza - and he fought ISIS and the Taliban bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/w1…

AIPAC is spreading lies. The Israeli government is starving Palestinians and everyone knows it. How can we trust Democrats to fight for anything if they take money from people who lie like this about starving kids.

This is important testimony that cuts through all the bluster from the Israeli government and the American contractors

Air drops provide a fraction of the amount trucks do. If Israel allowed the UN to do its job, there would be no starvation. Trucks of food are there waiting to be delivered if Israel permitted.

I welcome this decision by President Macron. With unimaginable suffering in Gaza and no end in sight, now is the time for our government to do the same.

Israel is committing mass atrocity crimes in Gaza. Palestinians civilians are now facing a choice between starving to death or being killed waiting for aid. In Parliament I recently called for further concrete action, including the immediate recognition of the State of Palestine

Consistent with its historic commitment to a just and lasting peace in the Middle East, I have decided that France will recognize the State of Palestine. I will make this solemn announcement before the United Nations General Assembly this coming September.…

💥Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana can't differentiate between Palestinians and Hamas despite belonging to a government that referred to Hamas as "an asset" against the establishment of a Palestinian state. He accuses Macron of being "a collaborator with evil."

🚨 JUST IN: FRANCE to recognize Palestine as a state, major break with US, most powerful EU country to do so. al-monitor.com/originals/2025…

I’m delighted that @BarnetCouncil have tonight approved nearly 3,400 homes for Edgware Town Centre, of which 35% will be genuinely affordable. This partnership between @placesforlondon @ballymore will also deliver new green and open space, transport upgrades, and employment.
