Glad to see the representative of the Quakers at Catherine Connolly’s #inauguration ripping gently into politicians.
No Quaker would ever use the expression, but basically she asked the politicians present to stop
“Smearing the BeJaysus” out of refugees seeking safety in Ireland.
A good day.

Welfare is not a competition – both young and old need protecting from poverty
The benefits system is often pitched as a battle between young and old. Independent Age's Joanna Elson says no one should be in poverty

Protesters gathered today outside Truro Cathedral in Cornwall, holding signs reading "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action."
Similar demonstrations also took place across the UK, including in London, Manchester, Edinburgh, Bristol, and Derry.

A screenshot of a Written Parliamentary Question submitted by Carla Denyer MP. The text of the question reads: To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, pursuant to the Answer of 11 June 2025 to Question 56822 on Israel: Military Aid, if he will make it his policy to stop this training.
Below this is text reading: Due for answer in 3 days (by 16 June 2025)
A screenshot of a written parliamentary question from Rachael Maskell MP, which reads: To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, when the last time was that a member of the Israel Defense Forces was trained by the UK armed forces.
And the answer from Luke Pollard MP, which reads: As part of routine Defence engagement with Israel, the UK is currently training a limited number of Israel Defense Forces personnel on UK-based training courses.
This week a question from @rachaelmaskell.bsky.social revealed that the UK is training Israeli soldiers - making us actively complicit in the Israeli government's genocide in Gaza. I've asked the Defence Secretary if he'll put a stop to this - there is no excuse for letting this go on.

Churches 'dismayed' by the police raid on a @quaker.org.uk Meeting House
CTE General Secretary Bishop @mikearoyal.bsky.social has written an open letter to the Metropolitan Police requesting a review and a meeting to prevent such an incident from happening again.

Solidarity with @yuanfenyang.bsky.social and Abtisam Mohamed.
I can hardly think of two Members of Parliament less likely to 'spread hatred', but that's what they've been accused of by the Israeli government.
