“”I will not leave Gaza even if I am killed. I know I am on the assassination list, but I will continue to expose the crimes of the Israeli army against my people and show the world, and everyone who stands by them, the truth.”” - Anas Al-Sharif

As an Israeli I fully agree: sanctions across the board are the only way forward, w/r to the catastrophe in Gaza, but also the brutal war in the West Bank waged by the settlers/the Israeli Army (whose high command is dominated by settlers, which partly explains the genocidal nature of the Gaza war)
"The most important lesson emerging from this awful episode is not about Glastonbury or the BBC. It is about the moral test that our society faces."
The Chief Rabbi is right.
His endorsement of Israel's ongoing atrocities shows he's already failed that test. Up to the rest of us.

Israeli here (0.5 British): not only should the UK stay out, but along with the rest of the EU enact sanctions against Israel for the genocidal war in Gaza and assure that the war criminal in chief (who launched this war merely to escape the witness stand in his trial!) should make it to the Hague

Re Navarro as a quasi walnut, very unfair to walnuts---they are an important source of Omega3 to vegans
Linguistics 101: No Pierre, not all adjectives are subsective. Fake socialists are not socialists and wannabe prime ministers do not necessarily become prime ministers
This kind of smug know-nothing politics is distressingly popular because actually, nobody does the reading. Furthermore, they want to punish the people who do for being nerds.
"The Supreme Court’s decision regarding trans women has made me ashamed of my profession – and ashamed of what our law has become." www.independent.co.uk/voices/trans...
UCU stands with trans people, today and every day.
The Supreme Court ruling is not just wrong, it’s dangerous.
We will never stop fighting for trans rights and equality.

Israeli soldiers murdered these medical workers, buried them in a mass grave, libelled them as terrorists and then lied about it. One of the ambulance crews' last words were: "I only chose this path because I wanted to help people." www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

A minute's silence for each of the children murdered by Israel in Gaza would extend to over 300 hours.
Powerful speech to the UN from Daniel Levy, a former Israeli government adviser.
