People in the West Bank were afraid that this was coming - that once Gaza had been sufficiently subdued, they'd be next. Please don't miss this because of all the noise about Iran.

Hearing this from quite a few people in Reform UK-controlled councils. From a local reader: "There are rumours as in other Reform UK controlled councils that a number of those elected stood to ‘make up numbers’ & never thought they would be elected & now don’t feel able to commit the time required"

Yes he’s a dictator. No he doesn’t have to remove elections to prove that. He just hasn’t done it yet.

Everyone should write to their MP saying: Israel’s attack on Iran is insane. It is also being used to distract from Gaza, where internet has been cut, and the West Bank, where settlements are aggressively expanding. The UK government MUST recognise the State of Palestine now. Does your MP agree?

This is rather well put. In a week: a Member of Congress criminally charged with protest, a Senator handcuffed, a union leader charged, the military on the streets of a major city against the wishes of the governor and mayor while the Federal government claims it's "liberating" the people there...

Efficient resistance means pushing back against fascism & pressuring it both on the streets as in the court rooms. Scenes from Tucson Arizona where protestors cornered Trump regime ICE troops, sprayed them in self-defence. Protestors kettled ICE & used their own riot control methods. #3E #StopICE

Looks like Farage has dropped Ant Middleton as Reform’s candidate for Mayor of London. What was it that concerned him about the tax-avoiding, Tommy Robinson supporter who assaulted a female police officer and wants to start an organisation based on the Nazi Brownshirts?

The Eye is sad to record the loss of Barry Fantoni, who died on 20 May 2025 aged 85 in Turin. An appreciation of his extensive contribution to Private Eye, with examples of his illustrations and cartoons, and memories from his friends and colleagues appears in the current issue.

Not surprising really, especially when England so often play against much weaker opponents. It makes them look better than they are.

Nail on head back in 1981!

Good goal tbf. 🤷🏻‍♀️
