With a very few exemptions, Big Pharma is not interested in antibiotics because they don’t make them the super profits they’re addicted to. Their aim is not better drugs, but higher profits.

The US’s critical minerals club will undermine the green energy transition.
It is a colonial vehicle which will shore up supplies for US digital and military sectors and divert resources away from cleantech.

"If governments work together outside the coercive US trade bloc, they may be able to draw local benefits from their mineral wealth and build a genuinely fair trade in transition minerals."

‘I stand with Iran. Unequivocally. Any regimes that need changing, including the US, Israel and ours, need to be changed by the people, not by some bloated, lying, cheating, greedy, resource-grabbing, bomb-dropping imperial power’

At least 83 children killed and 254 wounded in Lebanon alone in the last week. It is such unimaginable evil.

Governments have gone all-out to suppress, marginalise and lie about us. But the movement just grows and grows.
The People’s Congress for The Hague Group rally tonight in Amsterdam.
End the Nakba. #FreePalestine
Yep it’ll get them even it goes out from GJN accounts. I can’t do it from here though.
At the People’s Congress of The Hague Group to stand with the people of Palestine, to challenge Trump and Netanyahu’s brutality. We will not let hope die. #FreePalestine
‘Genocide in Gaza is only the first step of showing us that we are all disposable... Standing up for Palestine is vital to ending the spiral into US-led chaos’
Omar Barghouti of the BDS movement opens the People’s Congress of The Hague Group #EndTheNakba
Today I’m at the People’s Summit of The Hague Group. 40 government representatives have been meeting this week to discuss action to stop Israel’s brutal genocide, and End The Nakba. Today, movements from across the world join them. #FreePalestine
Just turned up at the People’s Summit of The Hague Group to discuss how we can work together to stop Israel’s brutality and End the Nakba! Nice to be sitting next to Sally Rooney and Jason Hickel #FreePalestine

This is brilliant by @transitionsec.bsky.social. By investing in US-controlled military systems and failing to invest in clean energy, we are deepening our dependence on Trump. We must reverse course. Compare European with Chinese energy & military spend 👇

Israel has killed 120 people Lebanon, and displaced at least 100,000 people who are now in shelters. Lebanon is a sovereign country. But this is just normal now right?

I think theyre definitely alarmed
The increasing hysteria from the White House only underlines how badly Trump has miscalculated. He can kill a lot of people, but he can’t win. And the chaos unleashed will create a global crisis. European leaders could try to halt it, but will instead be remembered as appeasers.
So pleased to talk to Omar Barghouti, a founder of the BDS movement, on Palestine, Trump’s ‘board of war’, and where we find hope 👇

Trump says countries that have signed trade deals with him will now be looking at higher tariffs. Of course. If you do what he wants, he’ll come back for more.
Learn the lesson. Stand up to him!!

Israeli map showing all of southern Lebanon in red with yellow arrows pointing to north of the Litani river
The IDF just ordered the *entirety of south Lebanon* to be forcibly displaced.
They are emptying the land of its population, creating a massive crisis, and will now proceed to further annihilate large parts of Lebanon.
The very nation state of Lebanon is being destroyed.
It’s truly incredible that with the Americans and Israelis making up claims of potential Iranian WMDs, there is virtually no mention anywhere in most of the mainstream coverage so far that the *only* Middle Eastern state with undeclared nuclear weapon is Israel.
US officers telling soldiers they are involved in a religious crusade that will bring about Armageddon. Anyone backing Trump, you’ve been warned. This is religious fundamentalism, and it’s as dangerous as it gets.

Big Tech + Big Ag = tech feudalism. Algorithms dictating what crops farmers should grow and for whom, locking them into chemicals, seed types & machinery which big business wants to sell, fuelling over-consumption by the rich while the poor go hungry

The head of NICE is right - the Starmer-Trump trade deal is a huge step backwards. Yet the poor guy was summoned to a dressing down by Trump’s Ambassador.
Guess what Trump – he doesn’t work for you!
We need to stop behaving like a US colony.

Starmer’s Pharma deal with Trump is woefully short-sighted. It will mean massive prices rises for very little in return. And MPs haven’t even been given a say.

With the tariffs repealed, the promised benefits of the proposed trade deal have vanished for Indonesia, while the costs remain: painful concessions to Big Tech, Big Pharma, and a colonial-style resource grab.
Pleased to sign this 👇 The government’s data centres will blow our climate goals out of the water. We can’t keep pretending there’s no contradiction here.
If there’s one thing that unites Western politicians, it’s the belief in their god-given right to subjugate the Middle East.
The barbarism Europe & the US have visited on that region, just in my life time. And always for ‘their own good’.
It’s abhorrent.
Hands Off Iran.
Britain must clearly oppose the US and Israel’s illegal aggression and refrain from any action which supports the attacks
