There's only one good reason why you would stop humanitarian aid getting to penned in people - poverty through starvation, thirst, poor medication for the sick (are a few examples). When the hospitals are all in total ruin, it doesn't help either. Why must leaders continue to punish innocents #gaza

❌ No one should have to choose between heating and eating. ❌ No one should have to go hungry so their children can eat. ❌ No one should be sleeping in the cold this winter. Everyone should be able to afford the essentials they need to survive and live with dignity 💚

It's quite amazing that the mega wealthy have successfully convinced the richest nations on earth that there is not enough money to go around whilst they get richer and richer.

I would happily watch an independent Scotland lead England out of their morass. But we've been showing them the answer since the 50s. We showed them with the Brexit vote. We showed them with the hijacked Gaza ceasefire vote. Westminster doesn't listen to Scotland, it dictates.
