Pope Francis used his final public address to call for a ceasefire in Gaza: “Unarmed civilians are subjected to bombings and shootings. It is terrorism.” Even in hospital, he checked in daily on Gaza’s Christian community. The world has lost a brave voice for peace and justice.

For me, I will remember Francis as the Pope who called the Holy Family Church in Gaza every day as the city, and even the church itself, was bombed by Israel.

The army has advanced to an area 10 minutes away from me, we are now surrounded. I can’t leave. They set up military cranes equipped with machine guns and cameras, the ground is littered with merciless tanks, and the sky, as usual. There is no escape. The apocalypse has come. Gaza is over! :((((((

Drones entered people's homes in Shujaiya last night. Every house that gave off any light (such as a cell phone flashlight) was entered by these drones and opened fire. There were many injuries.

The crime is not only what the occupation does in Gaza, but what the world fails to do to stop it. Silence is not neutrality... it is the weapon by which the innocent are killed quietly, but more cruelly than bombs.

There isn't a single country, other than Israel, where the majority of citizens aren't opposed to the genocide of Palestinians, but not one government represents the voice of the people. This is what happens when you never vote for someone who represents your values because you must prevent "worse"

🧵You’ll see headlines calling the UK “the sick man of Europe” and claiming disability benefits have doubled. But between 2010–2023, the caseload rose just 23% (from 2.6m to 3.2m). They inflate the numbers by quietly switching time periods. It’s misleading — and dangerous. 1/6

The famine is becoming more brutal, tightening its grip on those who remain alive. A short while ago, news arrived that bakeries were completely closed. Flour had run out, and there was no more bread to feed the hungry.

There was rightly concern last week when OBR & DWP documents revealed that £4.8bn of cuts to benefits for ill & disabled people would push 250k people into poverty, including 50k children But @neweconomics.bsky.social analysis suggests the true scale & impact of these cuts will be even greater... 🧵

I also want to add that, in addition to all this, Vance's puppeteer Peter Thiel owns Palantir, which has been testing surveillance and metadata-scraping predictive targeting algorithms on Palestine for more than a decade. Facial recognition and information tracking coupled with all this is Bad.

The reason Palestinians from Gaza are more desperate today than ever is because tomorrow is eid. These are all parents trying to buy a tiny piece of sweet that probably costs $200 at this point for their kids. Some probably just want to make sure they have anything to eat at all for their kids.

This is good, because it takes the focus off the individual eejit, and turns it back on ourselves? Will we, as a country, be able to resist the insidious lure of populist racism and face our own problems like grown-ups?
