Our letter condemning the genocide in #Gaza and calling for an immediate ceasefire. A great crime is being committed, and we cannot stand by. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

The results of another BIG pilot are now available. This one was in L.A. and provided $1,000/mo for a year (2022 to 2023) to 3,200 people and compared them to a control group of 5,000. Every household started in poverty and with kids or expecting a baby. The results speak for themselves. 👇

Always remember: this is a crime being committed by Israel, a Western ally armed and backed throughout by the United States and Britain.

No one who cares about wildlife and ecosystems is now likely to vote Labour in 2029. Or about Gaza. Or poverty. Or inequality. Or international aid. Or corporate power. Or democratic reform. Or racism. Or trans rights. So that's goodbye to just about its entire vote. What are they playing at?

Incredibly powerful investigation in Dutch newspaper NRC: Seven of the world’s leading genocide scholars — including renowned Holocaust experts — describe Israel’s actions in Gaza as genocidal. And according to them, nearly all of their peers agree.

Israel are planning to 'move' the population of Gaza as part of a new plan to "capture" the territory. It's clear for everyone to see. This is ethnic cleansing.

“This is the nature of nationalist populism, whether it wears a red cap in Michigan or a turquoise rosette in Runcorn. It is expert at turning grievance, division and nostalgia into votes. But when it comes to governing, it will always fail.” Latest column www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Donald Trump insists history says tariffs work. But history says Donald Trump doesn’t know what the hell he’s talking about.

It is not accurate to blame Israel alone for the genocide in Gaza. It is funded by the USA. With weapons made in the USA. That’s why we will carry these banners tomorrow outside Lockheed Martin — with images of the devastation and the horror… that say “Made in the USA.”

Monday’s @theguardian.com front page: PM calls for ‘coalition of the willing’ to end Ukraine war www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

Starmer Calls For 'Coalition Of The Willing' To End War As He Unveils Fresh Ukraine Peace Plan www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/starme...

Starmer to Zelenskyy: You are very very welcome here in Downing Street. As you heard from the cheers outside, you have full backing across the United Kingdom.

BREAKING: Chancellor Rachel Reeves has signed a £2.26 billion loan agreement with Ukraine to strengthen its defence capabilities, to be repaid using profits from frozen Russian assets 👏

This is Winston Churchill visiting Washington DC to request assistance in the war against Germany. Notice he is wearing a "zip suit" and not a traditional suit. This was to honor the British troops--the same reason Zelensky dresses the way he does.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy is an extraordinary leader. A man who has for three years been coping with his own ongoing trauma, whilst carrying the hopes and fears of his traumatised people, stays strong as he is shouted down by two bullies.

After the absolute scenes in the White House yesterday, clearly the UK should be offering a state visit to Zelensky not Trump.

Zelenskyy knows what it is to fight for something bigger than yourself. Trump does not.

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

Facts matter.

Yup.

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

What an embarrassment to this country. That white house presser was disgusting to watch. Zelensky and the people of Ukraine deserve so much better.

The way trump bullied Zelensky, an honorable and brave war leader, demonstrated the 'might is right' principle typical of fascism The UK's path is clear now: we must join with our European partners to stand in solidarity with Ukraine and its leader

"What we witnessed today was bullying from one of the most powerful men in the world. Now is the time to make clear we, as a country, stand with Zelensky in working for a lasting just peace." See my full statement here: greenparty.org.uk/2025/02/28/n...
