Four people accused of spraying red paint on two military planes at RAF Brize Norton, face 18 months in prison before trial. That far exceeds the 6 month pre-trial custody time limit. This is how Britain treats those accused of disrupting the Gaza genocide.

Happy 60th birthday to Dame Evelyn Glennie, one of the most inspirational figures of her generation and a champion for the power of music to transform lives for the better. I really enjoyed talking to her! pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/lifestyle/5…

Conditions in Gaza are beyond disastrous, beyond catastrophic, beyond horrendous, beyond words. May the pain & fear in the eyes of forcibly starved & displaced children & families who have barely survived the genocide haunt all those who are actively committing these atrocities

I don’t understand how we can remain silent when we see images of Palestinian children, women & civilians emaciated & malnourished because of the Israeli Government’s blockade of humanitarian aid entering Gaza. How can our hearts not urge us to at the very least vocalise outrage?

There is no food. Gaza is starving. Gaza is being starved. One baby at a time. One child at a time. Organised famine. A crime of historic proportion. Supported by the European establishment. Downplayed for the Western audience.

If, by some chance, you find that you also have been out of touch, it's not too late to rectify... 😊 shearsman.com/store/Geraldin… Don't be out of touch!! 😊🙏🔰❤️💙

Mass starvation in Gaza and over 1,000 Palestinians killed while seeking aid since May. The government says the situation is intolerable yet they continue to tolerate it. The UK needs to stop all arms exports to the Israeli Government - today.

I'm sorry to say I'm in a fly-murdering mood 😩It's basically me or the flies at this point (they gravitate towards my eczema wounds & that is 😖😖😖)

There are no words. Only rage. Children turned into skeletal frames before our eyes. Emaciated families in tents. State death by starvation. Bombs dropped on aid seekers. Bullets fired at kids with empty pans. Humanity turned on its head. The world shows its depravity

That was torture! Can't listen live at the moment so relying on (excellent) live text & it felt like the longest moment EVER until the post loaded to save Joe Root #bbccricket
