Please don't nationalise the water company debts. Let them go broke and then buy the company for £ one. Only then nationalise.

Linda Mamoun— "No Western media outlet has even asked this."

Putin is calling for a ceasefire in the Middle East. We fully agree: every war must end, and weapons must give way to dialogue. But you can’t cherry-pick peace. Those who wage war in Ukraine cannot credibly call for peace elsewhere. Ukraine deserves peace too.

Israel bombed Iranian Schools, Hospitals and Water Treatment plants first. They are the War Criminals, Iran is merely defending itself.

That he's terminally stupid really doesn't help.

Israel's Minister for National Security Itamar Ben-Gvir, "People who attack hospitals are Nazis." Does anybody want to tell him?

"144 Killed, 560 Injured in Gaza Over Past 24 Hours" "Since March 18, when Israel unilaterally broke the ceasefire and resumed attacks, its forces have killed an additional 5,334 Palestinians and injured 17,839 more." via Principles NOT Parties

There's been much talk and praise for Nick Drake today, so I'm now playing. 👍

Russia is building a new military garrison in the town of Kandalaksha near the Finnish border.This is the first sign of a steady increase in troop numbers 100 km from the border,Yle reports. The images reveal that last winter,Russia began large-scale construction in a closed military settlement.

Punished for telling the truth.

65% of Brits want a closer relationship with the EU, over four times as many who want a more distant relationship. It makes economic sense. It makes cultural sense. And it is what the people want... We need a Common Sense Deal with the EU. buff.ly/3y7vJEB

Truly outrageous demands The creditors who want to profit from Thames Water's collapse are asking to change the company's licence to - stop fines for sewage dumping 💩 - allow bill increases anytime 🤑 Steve Reed must say NO - PUBLIC OWNERSHIP NOW www.ft.com/content/1e05...

We don't get 'dragged' into war, our maniacal neo-liberal leaders march us there deliberately, and it wasn't a 'highly controversial military campaign' in Iraq, it was a totally illegal & murderous all-out war. FFS BBC! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I can still name all of these without this prompt - and absolute childhood favourite of mine.

Oh dear. That does somewhat dent Starmer's £5 billion attack on disabled people.

I’m going to be very very angry if we go down this path of supporting America in an attack on Iran. We don’t need this and they don’t need us. The ludicrous construct of the so called ‘special relationship’ is dead. Please nobody use that as a reason.

5.3% of tax, dodged by the richest 1%. Stop worrying about Disabled People and start noticing the rich people ripping you off.

4-year-old Mark was saved by his mother at the cost of her own life. He is recovering. Discharged from the hospital, awaiting eye prosthetics. He still keeps asking about his mom and misses her deeply. Simply unbearable💔 We can't let this keep happening: u24.gov.ua/nafo-dark-ni...

Call it what it is: terrorism.

Netanyahu is a liar, everybody knows that. Because the truth would expose the real agenda: more war, more death, more fear, so he can cling to power while we pay the price. But we refuse to keep dying for their lies. We all deserve to live in safety, freedom, and dignity.

Oh it was worse! A deacon friend of mine invited me to talk to his church (non-denominational) about why I opposed the war. I was BOOED in the middle of my talk. Church goers on a Wednesday evening were foaming at the mouth. That’s how much ppl wanted that war. Don’t let them tell you otherwise.

Nous ne sommes pas assis ici dans ce format avec des seigneurs de guerre et pas avec des criminels de guerre, c'est pourquoi Poutine n'a pas sa place à cette table...

Ukraine says Russia has now been rejecting ceasefire calls for 100 days – Europe live

RUSSIAN ADVANCES UKRAINIANS DEFEND The scale of Russian attacks is now that of company level infantry and mixed assault groups with maybe 15 vehicles of dubious quality. More often than not the Ukrainians destroy them quickly. Yet advances have continued and the Russians seem to concerned mostly

The British Foreign Office is “disturbed by reports” that the Israeli military that it supports is using Palestinians as human shields. It just calls on Israel to investigate itself. #DCUKparliament

It annoys my trolls to be told that Russia attacked Ukraine every single day Donald was president the 1st time and every single day he has been president the 2nd time. He's actually one of the constant facts of my invasion.

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

❗️BREAKING — Up to five Israeli military personnel are currently being trained in Britain, the UK Ministry of Defence admits to parliament. After months of refusing to answer questions on the issue, the MoD says these are ‘non-combat academic courses’. #DCUKparliament

Russia issues warning to United States against joining Israel's war with Iran.

This was also good burn 🔥 Labour MP Adam Thompson: What is this govt doing to help people improve their maths skills as I came across an awful case of a 61 year old man (Farage) who believed he had counted up £7b of govt spending, when there was really only really £27m. He evidently can't add up? 😂

To follow up on the original post, here is further information. Yaxley-Lennon is complicit.

A close call: A Ukrainian soldier narrowly avoided being struck by a Russian FPV drone that flew just inches from his head. The incident, caught on video, occurred during Russian shelling as he escaped in a vehicle.
