I’ve heard ‘Death, death to the IDF’ umpteen times now, mostly because of all the hand-wringing around it. Ignoring it might have been a better option. #c4news

Israel is out of control. #c4news

Say what you like about Rod Stewart, but he’s got a hell of a back catalogue. I can’t believe how many of these I know most of the the words to. #glastonbury

Every single day Israel is committing Genocide, and the only thing that happens is the Government goes after people opposing them because they are 'terrorists'.

The energy pouring out of Ezra Collective is a joy to behold. #Glastonbury

My Nan has robbed an off-license and is trying to get into #Glastonbury. If you see her, please let the authorities know. Don’t approach her, she’s mental.

Protest is terrorism. Genocide is defence. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.

Yvette Cooper always felt (to me at least) to be one of Labour’s proper grown ups. This is disappointing from her.

A perfect summary…

It’s pretty telling that Israel allows journalists to talk to Israelis caught in bombing from Iran, but won’t let journalists into Gaza. #c4news

Fuck Netanyahu. Fuck Trump.

Your occasional reminder that it’s OK for us to have nukes because, in our own opinion, we’re the good guys. Iran are ‘bad guys’ so they aren’t allowed to have nukes. #c4news

Your occasional reminder that less than a dozen countries in the world have nuclear weapons. Obviously we’re allowed them because we’re the good guys, but other countries (like e.g. Iran) can’t possibly be trusted. 🤷🏼‍♂️

The BBC News coverage of Israel vs Iran seems already heavily skewed towards garnering sympathy for Israel (conveniently forgetting that it was Israel who started this particular episode).

He’s not a real colonel. #totp

I’m not convinced that the U.K. has any business sending jets to the Middle East just because Israel is bombing Iran.

Good to see David Lammy finally find some backbone. It’s too little and too late of course, but welcome nonetheless.

That’s a hell of a lineup to be fair. #totp

More like it! #scoisl

The sight of Richard Tice grinning like a Cheshire Cat after the Hamilton, Larkhall and Stonehouse by-election gives me the boak. WTF are the flute shaggers thinking?

Really shocked that an admin filled with podcasters, social media influencers, reality TV participants, indicted felons, crypto bros, drunks, Fox hosts, drug addicts, weirdos, and unqualified ass kissing toadies can’t keep their shit together for 24 consecutive hours.

Great stuff from Roz Atkins…

Thank you @channel4news.bsky.social for keeping a focus on #Gaza. As harrowing as the reports are, it’s vital that the world doesn’t forget.

The Israeli spokesperson on #c4news was doing quite well until he claimed that the IDF operates under international law.
