UK polls show that: • 84% of the public think Netanyahu should be arrested if he comes to the UK • 67% think Israel has committed war crimes • 56% support blocking all arms sales to Israel The British public are on the right side of history. Our political leaders are not.

Even as a politics lecturer in a Middle East department, I am lost. Israel has a right to self defence, but Lebanon does not? Israelis have the right to be safe, but Palestinians do not? Iran can’t launch missiles into civilian areas, but Israel can? None of this is coherent.

"We stand with Israel, and recognise her right to self defence in the face of this aggression." UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer is addressing the British public after Iran launched missiles towards Israel. trib.al/df1dN4r 📺 Sky 501



I don't post on Covid very often, but if you have the time and/or patience take 2 minutes to watch this. Our government lied to us shamelessly about the sheer scale of the problem, and the new government still is...

Prof @Kevin_Fong giving the most devastating and moving testimony to the Covid Inquiry of visiting hospital intensive care units at the height of the second wave in late Dec 2020. The unimaginable scale of death, the trauma, the loss of hope. Please watch this 2min clip.

Politics is about choices - and the government is choosing to inflict pain and poverty across the country.

Great interview with @DrRosieMeek on why sports matter beyond the Olympics

With huge thanks to the staff & leadership team at @HMP_Bronzefield for facilitating this recording, it was a pleasure to take an Olympic athlete onto a prison sports pitch to discuss why #SportInPrison is as important now as ever. Thank you for being such a great supporter Aimee

Wow!

A real delight to welcome @RealRapman to #PennedUp @HMPErlestoke talking about the power of stories that come from life and the heart, the global hit SUPACELL, and what brings us together. No surprise that the event was packed and so many left uplifted.
