The documentary that the BBC refused to air showing the targeting, detainment and torture of medics in Gaza by Israeli authorities was broadcast by Channel 4 last night. Amnesty International researcher, Budour Hassan, explains the use of secret sites by the Israeli authorities.

There will be no security without peace, and no peace without justice. The more the Israeli state kills, the more it erodes its own security. Stop the killing. End the occupation.

After watching a screening of Basement Films' remarkable documentary, Gaza: Doctors Under Attack, a profoundly moved Gary Lineker says, "The BBC should hang its head in shame" for censoring the film.

Great piece here on Bohemians - genuinely can't think of many other comparative success stories of pure innovation in any walk of life in Ireland

I'm surprised this has not happened earlier. I am not sure what I would describe Keir Starmerโ€™s government as - but it is certainly not social democratic.

Iโ€™m no political strategist. But the Democratic message should be simple: Trumpโ€™s Republican Party is by the elites, for the elites, and only about the elites.

Some of us stopped taking the BBC and Labour seriously after Blairโ€™s illegal war in Iraq. Two decades on, itโ€™s clear neither has learned a thing.

This 83-year-old priest has just been arrested for holding a sign which read: โ€œI oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action.โ€ According to Starmerโ€™s new law, this puts her in the same category as an ISIS or Al-Qaeda terrorist, with a prison sentence of up to 14 years.

Good read: The roots of the British malaise lie in a sick economy. There's a critical variable that Martin Wolf leaves out: Unequal/concentrated growth and regional inequality. UK growth = London City. That's the source of the UK's problems. ft.com/content/8a4995โ€ฆ via @ft

How will Trump's Republican Party get away with a bullshit narrative about being the working class party while advancing the interest of the super rich? By talking about transgender mice, woke universities, and mythical threats from non-white immigrants.
