Palestinian families panic and flee after the occupation airstrikes a residential building in Nuseirat refugee camp. The ethnic cleansing of Palestine has not stopped in over 8 decades and this ‘ceasefire’ is yet another facade.

This, this, this. If journalists don’t scrutinize this and explain it properly now then they have failed on their duty and will bear a share of the blame if such policies are enacted (most of the public oppose them and don’t I think realise what is being proposed yet).

The authors of the book write: “Even Sir Tony Blair, a Labour prime minister, argued that if you look at the levels of direct taxation for people, they’re really high, and in historical terms, they’d be considered extremely high, and people feel they’re getting taxed highly

The authors of the book write: “Even Sir Tony Blair, a Labour prime minister, argued that if you look at the levels of direct taxation for people, they’re really high, and in historical terms, they’d be considered extremely high, and people feel they’re getting taxed highly

Just ignorant, ahistorical rubbish from Blair.

The average burden of direct taxes (income tax and employee NICs) has barely shifted in two decades. Was 21% of gross incomes in 2004, was 21% last year.

Apropos of nothing, I really do think UK journalists and politicians need some reminding that mass deportation of LEGAL immigrants, particularly those with permanent status, is far more extreme than even Trump's America and would basically place Britain completely on its own among democracies.

Palestinian leader Marwan Barghouti assaulted by Israeli prison guards, son says Family fears for 66-year-old’s life after assault while he was being transferred between prisons

This is the heart-wrenching story of a man who is uniquely capable of leading peace negotiations and who, for this precise reason, is held hostage and tortured repeatedly for more than two decades by Israel. With the West's connivance, of course... www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

‘So many similarities’: Rachel Corrie’s parents call for inquiry into death of Ayşenur Ezgi Eygi Cindy and Craig Corrie say they fear Eygi’s death at West Bank protest will go unpunished like their daughter’s

In 2003 American Rachel Corie was intentionally crushed to death by an Israeli military bulldozer. Then, there was no Hamas to blame. A stark reminder of a genocide that started too long ago and will continue even if Hamas disappears - unless WE stop it! www.theguardian.com/world/2024/s...

Nigel Farage schooldays letter reveals concerns over fascism Channel 4 News obtains a letter about Ukip leader Nigel Farage, from his days as a schoolboy, in which teachers are quoted as accusing him of being "racist" and "fascist".

“Another colleague described his publicly professed racist and neo-fascist views. Yet another colleague described how, at a Cadet Force camp organised by the college, Farage and others marched through a quiet Sussex village late at night shouting Hitler-youth songs.”
