Characteristically wise & evidence-based piece from @devisridhar on the most egregious of RFK Jr's views. A dangerous anti-vaxxer conspiracy theorist who promotes raw milk (E.coli or salmonella, anyone?) & has claimed "autism comes from vaccines" 😳 theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Who can say they were unaware of the situation in Palestine the starvation, destruction, shootings children, rapes, torture of prisoners mass exodus of people ploughing up roads destroying water filtration etc. This world will have to live with what it has permitted forever🦋☮️🤔

There is no denying the world has turned a dark corner by accepting the atrocities being perpetrated in Palestine, the stain will permeate through time, everyone involved with this will face future courts and those who are alive imprisoned. 🦋☮️🤔

Am very concerned about Labour They won’t fix the NHS because Streeting spouts nonsense They won’t fix the economy because that requires rejoining the EU And, if they do neither of these thing, Farage & the far-right will fill the vacuum left by the self-sabotaging Tory Party

Only the richest 4% of people pay Inheritance Tax. Only the richest 1.5% of farmers will pay HALF Inheritance Tax spread over 10 years. This is a protest funded by the obscenely wealthy who want to pay no tax at all.

An existential war? What utterly deluded bullshit. Israel is not under existential threat. But Palestinians absolutely are. This kind of racist filth perfectly suits the reactionary current version of The Atlantic. The Fallows era is long gone.


John Lister Reposted

this is delusional and vaguely concealed denialism the existential threat in ME is Israel’s government, its genocidal campaign and propaganda to justify it… and this article does just that UN reports repeatedly suggest the large scale crimes against humanity it’s not a war

Raw sewage from new homes being flushed into river. Back to the 19th century. Did Thames Water and developers not know? That's what you get with privatisation of essential services, deregulation of planning. Govt promising more housing deregulation. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

The number of women waiting for gynaecology care in England has more than doubled in the last 5 years. We really do need to fix this urgently. Please repost if you agree and help encourage @wesstreeting to make this a priority.

This is Beirut 🇱🇧tonight. Beirut is nowhere near the border with Israel 🇮🇱 This has nothing to do with Israel 🇮🇱 seeking border security. This is bringing terror. This is Netanyahu determined to plunge the whole region into war.

The MMR vaccine does not cause autism. There is no need for further research on this. It's been done. Multiple times. At a cost of billions. Its a settled question.

They forced people out of their homes without setting any infrastructure for them to go to and then their soldiers looted and then demolished their empty homes with bulldozers and controlled explosions while wearing the underwear of displaced or dead women and teenage girls. What…

To the Metropolitan Police, I’d like to report a hate crime committed by Laurence Fox. “You are not welcome in my country” is a racist trope. I am British. @metpoliceuk @MetCC Evidence below:

Also, it can be straight to £0 if you apply for UC and your partner is working or you have savings.

NEW: Is Britain’s welfare too generous? Most countries pay workers who lose their jobs more than half of their previous salaries. In Britain, unemployment benefits are *12%* of the average wage @thetimes 1/5
