Opinion from the FT's Editorial Board: 'The US and European countries that tout Israel as an ally that shares their values have issued barely a word of condemnation. They should be ashamed of their silence, and stop enabling Netanyahu to act with impunity.' www.ft.com/content/f5fd...

Labour is handing this country on a silver platter to Reform. People do not vote Labour because they hate immigrants and want Reform-lite. They vote Labour because they want it to make a positive difference to their lives.

I've written a long opinion piece about the need to win over the complacent cis majority in the fight for trans rights. If you're a good ally, please don't take to the comments to moan about my criticisms of cis people. I'm not talking about you. Carve out 15 minutes. Put the kettle on and enjoy.

Amicus brief from ethics professors 1/ The law firms that gave in to Trump’s demands have created a conflict of interest for their lawyers 2/ They may have violated federal anti-bribery laws 3/ Independence of the judiciary depends upon the independence of the lawyers who appear in front of it.

i'll be blunt, if you are someone who is vocal about the ways that diversity efforts "divide the working class" but silent about the ways that *actual racism and discrimination* divide the working class, then i think you're just an opportunist

Richard Tice on PM and Nigel Farage on the Today programme earlier in the week (as well as too many times to mention on Question Time). Why does the BBC love Reform so much?

Trump has clearly not spoken to a single Palestinian about this plan. Gaza is our land. Palestine is our home. Peace cannot come at the cost of our country. I urge the UK and the whole international community to resist him. Recognise Palestine now, before it's too late.
