Palestine is the test of our age, and we're falling horribly

I can't recommend this We Are Not Numbers enough - written by the young people of Gaza. Pre-order now - let's make it a bestseller 👇 bit.ly/4hiPzT2

Nigel Farage has told ITV News the first thing he would do as prime minister if he won a general election would be to remove the UK from the European Convention on Human Rights That alone is good reason never to vote for Reform UK. THIS IS WHY youtu.be/MdiDDJrQUJA?...

Given that Sky News has found Israel lied and then lied again about killing aid workers, and given this pattern repeats itself over and over again, wouldn't it be nice if, going forward, the media assumed the IDF was lying, instead of always giving it the benefit of the doubt?

🔴 'Trump says baseline tariffs will stay in blow to UK hopes of deal' Right, probs best to just do a better deal with the EU then... www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Sounds like a plan

Chemical burns, assaults, electric shocks - Gazans tell BBC of torture in Israeli detention www.bbc.com/news/article...

New horrific footage shows that Israel lied through its teeth about its massacre of paramedics and rescue workers. But still Western media outlets will keep treating Israeli lies as credible. Accessories to genocide 👇 www.owenjones.news/p/israel-lie...

The UK government is saying it'll continue to cosy up to Trump to try and get a deal. ❌ But this isn't what the public want. ✅ Our polling shows 43% of Brits believe increasing trade with our main trading partners like the EU is the best way to respond to Trump's tariffs.

They're letting Israel quite literally get away with industrialised murder.

It should be obvious by now that Netanyahu won't stop until every Palestinian in #Gaza (and perhaps the West Bank) has been murdered, maimed or expelled. He wants it all. Governments like ours should cut off all military equipment, diplomatic support and other relations until the genocide ends.

If 20,000 American children had been kidnapped and taken out of our country, I would imagine I'd choose to not wear a suit either.

Trade barriers with the EU are stifling the UK defence industry. The government says it’s something they’re “very conscious” of. ❗For both our national security and economic growth, the government's reset with the EU has to break down these barriers.

As mass murder and genocide escalate in #Gaza, the UK government should denounce them, cut off all support to Netanyahu's government and assist in its prosecution. Instead, Starmer silences his ministers. In doing so, he facilitates the crimes.

In every atrocity in history, the silent are always principal players. Those who remain silent over Israel's genocide are enabling it to continue. Their cowardice is paid in the blood of thousands of innocent Palestinians. New column 👇 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

A message from Spain's left-wing government to the UK: take heart from our success on workers' rights. Raising living standards is the key to combating the far right. "If you fall into the dialogue of the far right, the far right wins." www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Israel has resumed its genocide in Gaza. But the Western media has overwhelmingly suppressed the truth. New post 👇 www.owenjones.news/p/israel-res...

Another strong woman speaks the TRUTH…

I’m pretty sure this is what voters want from their elected officials www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/u...

The cost of reaching net zero in the UK by 2050 is now predicted to be just 0.2% of GDP (about £4 billion per year). Spread this far and wide. It reveals Reform and the Conservatives' opposition to net zero for being 'too expensive' as just plain wrong.

NEW: In November, I wrote a Guardian column headlined 'How to Survive the Broligarchy'. Pretty much everything predicted has now come true. What I'm launching today is part handbook, how to protect ourselves? And part manifesto, how to fight back? Please join me. 1/ open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

Strong economies can spend more on defence, and closer UK - EU trade ties would not only boost growth but bolster our collective security. Ultimately, improved security starts with a better economic relationship with Europe.

Donald Trump again mimics Putin and calls for an election in Ukraine - falsely claiming Zelensky’s approval rating was “at 4%” Recent polling in fact shows that Zelensky’s approval rating is better than Trumps Lets make sure everyone knows the truth youtu.be/QDagM0WWEP4?...

Hero. 🇺🇦

🔴No, Gen Z Do Not Want to Be Ruled by a Dictator The media has been full of incredibly dubious claims that young people want to be ruled by a dictatorship. The reality is very different, finds @natashadevon.bsky.social bylinetimes.com/2025/02/14/n...

Donald Trump has openly declared Gaza will be ethnically cleansed. And our media is normalising it 👇 www.owenjones.news/p/trump-conf...

WOW!! The number of @bsky.app users just hit the 30 MILLION milestone!! 👏 LETS KEEP GOING!

The results of our new megapoll with @yougov.co.uk blew our minds when we got them. Voters in every single constituency in England, Scotland & Wales want the government to prioritise trade with the EU over the US. Including in Clacton! Full results 👇
