The Iraq playbook is back & the media won’t question it. Iran has no nuclear weapons. Israel — on trial for genocide — does. Iran signed the NPT & allows IAEA inspections. Israel hasn’t — & its leaders face ICC arrest warrants. Beware of politicians beating the drums of war.

EXCLUSIVE: American Security Contractor Unloads On US-Israeli ‘Gaza Humanitarian Foundation’

Let’s be fair, if you made your wealth here you should pay tax here, if you prefer to live abroad who cares - the US has a good system for that - all citizens pay tax wherever in the world they live. It’s fair, citizenship has benefits nobody should freeload.

As predicted, the front pages of BBC & CNN are full of Israel-Iran. Nothing on Gaza or West Bank. Remember that all comms are cut in Gaza as they starve. Exactly what Netanyahu wanted. They can do anything they like now as the vapid MSM chase the new squirrel released for their distraction.

Big digital billboards can emit 11 homes' worth of energy and cause harmful light pollution - but local authorities aren't allowed to take this into account when deciding whether to allow them to be built. This week I called for this to be changed #BetterWithoutBillboards @adfreecities.bsky.social‬

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"

Farage and the US Religious Right are celebrating policy wins here - and there's been a huge rise in prosecutions for abortion. Please email your MP and ask them to support Stella Creasy's amendment to decriminalise abortion; we've made it so easy for you. action.goodlawproject.org/decriminalis...

Enormous respect to Prof Andrea Sella for this deeply principled stand for what matters in science. Those at the Royal Society who bow before science-denying Elon Musk should hang their heads in shame.

This is fucking insane. The BBC is adjusting output to “win back” Reform voters while ex-Tory spin doctor, Gibb, sits on its board. That’s not public service or impartiality - it’s interference. Bending over for Farage puts the BBC in the gutter with the Daily Mail. bylinetimes.com/2025/06/09/b...

Keir Starmer and David Lammy must speak and condemn this interception. All humanitarian aid must be able to reach people desperately in need. The UK govt have been active participants in the genocide. The eyes of the world must be on Gaza. Release the Madleen crew.

After years of platforming Farage way beyond his importance this can only fail. Reform voters will never trust the BBC no matter how hard she tries to appease them. It will annoy even more all those centrist listeners who are already on the brink to switch it off. Genuinely don’t get it.
