'Pasta Won't Help. Gaza Is on the Brink of an Exponential Surge in Starvation Deaths'. A conversation with Alex de Waal, one of the world's leading authorities on famine. What is happening in Gaza terrifies him haaretz.com/israel-news/20โ€ฆ

More I think about this ad the more I think it reflects a rubicon moment. Not because loads of Brits are going to suddenly invest in crypto. But because a US based company felt comfortable/able to market itself to Brits themselves on the basis of things in the UK being rubbish!

We are not stray dogs to be thrown scraps from the sky. Gaza does not need your degrading airdrops โ€” we need justice, freedom, and an end to your complicity in our oppression. Keep your aid. We are not begging. We are not just starving bodies โ€” we are dignified souls being

One of the most awful interviews of the week. Shall we put folk in stocks and let the locals throw crap at them too? People being put in restraints, shackled & benchlifted on to planes, self harm, suicidal ideation, all in a dayโ€™s entertainment.

Margaret Thatcherโ€™s sale of 1.9m council homes cost public purse ยฃ200bn. Tories bought votes. Policy fuelled shortages in social housing, turbocharged inequality. One in six private tenants in England now rents a former local authority home. theguardian.com/society/2025/aโ€ฆ

Every word of this is agony to read. What Israel is doing to Palestinians is pure barbarism... by far the greatest single crime of the 21st century. Every sane person must oppose this evil.

"Can we finally stop pretending that what we have been witnessing in Gaza over the past 22 months is a 'war,' a 'conflict,' or even a 'humanitarian crisis'?...W hat is being livestreamed to our phones on a daily basis is indeed a genocide." theguardian.com/commentisfree/โ€ฆ

if you use the old blair formulation of the difference between a 3 second, 30 second and 3 minute conversation (sorry!), suspect this is broadly where the public ends up on a 3 minute conversation vs a 3 or 30 second one

look carefully at this video captured by a French TV crew without the Israelis knowing it. A group of Palestinians are gathered for a protest, then four of them pick up rocks and throw them at the Israeli soldiers. But they are not Palestinian, they are Zionist Jews in disguise.
