Inflation decided this election. In our age of overlapping emergencies we urgently need a new inflation fighting toolbox. If the only way to fight inflation is to hike interest rates with the goal of throwing people out of work, we push voters into the arms of the far right.

Yes you live with this. May their grandchildren live to tell the tale. May Palestine and Palestinians be always much more than this sick western world wants them to be: ghosts of genocide.
A girl in Gaza who can’t be older than 7 or 8 walks barefoot through the streets carrying her injured sister on her shoulders. There are tens of thousands of missing and orphaned children in Gaza. Post-apocalyptic.

In March 1983, the Ministry of Defence commenced the DS19 Propaganda Unit which launched a campaign against CND. 28 CND members were named in the press as communist sympathisers, MI5 had supplied DS19 with information on only 7. #spycops officer HN65 had reported on 27
This flyer has come through the letterboxes of homes in #Govan. Tragic that the regeneration of a poverty stricken part of Glasgow comes down to ramping up the arms trade, death & destruction. “Neither shall they learn war any more” (Isaiah 2:4). @BAESystemsplc @thalesgroup
If your government is conducting or assisting a genocide, and doing it in the face of overwhelming popular opposition, then you do not live in a democracy. Your ruling class does whatever it wants. This is a core problem and people need to grapple with it.
I just don’t accept that you can be a socialist, humanitarian, anti-racist or internationalist & have nothing to say about people being burnt in tents, purely because they are Palestinians - a people who’ve been brutalised for more than a century. (1/2)
In years to come, students in university departments around the world will be studying the propaganda embedded in this headline. As someone who regularly lectures in sociology, journalism and media studies, I could teach an entire lesson on the title alone. For example: 1.…
Another group of tax shirkers - who refuse to reveal their backers - tell Chancellor they are too important to pay the same tax as British people bit.ly/3ZZES2r and are tasteless enough to go and live in Dubai or Monaco if she she refuses!
This is how close the Israeli 🇮🇱 bombs are getting to UN troops in Lebanon 🇱🇧 Pure intimidation. The voices you hear in the background are Irish 🇮🇪 troops. They have no intention of being intimidated. They stand on the side of the oppressed. They are soldiers for peace.

Israel has created an “Extermination Zone” in North Gaza, advocates warn. Israel is effectively trapping hundreds of thousands in north Gaza and is systematically killing them all. truthout.org/articles/israe…
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez described Israel’s military offensive in Lebanon as an “invasion” and stated that the international community had to act.
"Appeal"?! Netanyahu just threatened to carry out a genocide against Lebanon, and THAT is how @BBCWorld describes it?! This framing is a crime against journalism.

Surgeon Ghassan Abu Sitta: "In the future, when we have a museum for this genocide [in Gaza], we will have a special place where we put the pictures of the journalists who allowed it to happen. There will be a wing for the CNN, BBC and Times journalists who were the enablers of…
