Betteshanger update. Not the news we wanted to hear. Our lawyers advise that grounds for Judicial Review are weak. Our chances of success are low- with great reluctance we have decided to drop our legal challenge.1/3

Extraordinarily sad news that one of the country's last remaining havens for turtle doves, whose numbers, @horton_official reports, fell a further 54% in the past 5 years, is officially going to be wrecked to build an artificial surf lagoon as @SaveBHCP lose their legal battle.

I am in a meeting watched upon by this magnificent NUM banner representing Frickley colliery which stood strong behind the Strike Never forget Never forgive

We need to remind him that most Jews who fled the prosecution in post-Reconquista Spain fled to Morocco. Even before that, Jews were living in Morocco for thousands of years together - even before Islam spread to North Africa - with the Amazighs/Berbers.

According to Geert Wilders, anti-semitism is part of the Moroccan DNA. We need to remind him of the fact it’s the Netherlands whose Jewish community got decimated by 3/4 in WW2. While Morocco’s King told the Nazis/Vichy “there are no Moroccan Jews” to protect his Jewish subjects

Nizam Mamode is an esteemed British surgeon & Professor. His evidence to MPs is of Israel 🇮🇱 bombing tents in Rafah 🇵🇸 and drones shooting wounded children. Why is MSM not covering this? Why is Starmer not being asked about this? Why are the UK 🇬🇧 selling arms to Israel 🇮🇱?

"There has been an intense and aggressive campaign of disinformation reaching out to donors' capitals to deligitimize the Agency." - Philippe Lazzarini, @UNRWA

So maybe this is radical, maybe this is scary to some, crazy even, especially those benefited by the system of nation-states, but the only way to decolonise this world order, is to deconstruct the "nation" part of "nation-state" and build plurinational societies instead

And this is not a Western issue, it is a world order problem. All states do this. My country, Peru, has defined a concept of a white/mestizo nation that treats Indigenous People as obstacles to "our" development. Peru also engages in segregation and genocide in its own scale

The difference between European states letting MENA asylum seekers drown in the Mediterranean/English Channel and Israel's genocide in Gaza is one of scale. The root cause is the same. Nation-states doing what nation-states do to keep their nations "safe" from the "other"

My general view is that a system based on nation-states, where each state takes care of its own corresponding nation, inevitably leads to the othering of those excluded from this nation, and eventually their oppression, segregation, ethnic cleansing, and/or genocide

Malaysian 🇲🇾 PM Anwar bin Ibrahim: “Israel 🇮🇱 no longer belongs in a community of civilised nations. Barbarism demands decisive action….including embargo, suspension & even expulsion [from the UN]” Arms embargo now Expel Israel 🇮🇱 from the UN now Recognise Palestine 🇵🇸 today

The first Teal of the winter to be ringed at Swindon STW. These lovely little ducks breed around the Arctic Circle and return to us each winter. It's always love to see and hear them back.

Hi there, @DavidLammy This wonderful lady thinks you are a genocide denier. And guess what: So do I!

Well this is awkward @Keir_Starmer, given you're on record in Hansard #PMQs declaring it's *not* genocide. Despite ICJ & UN rulings. History will tell the truth about you, genocide denier

I want to know where we can get politicians like this in our country. Sign me up.

Netanyahu won't agree to a ceasefire because if he did, his far right coalition partners would bring his govt down erm, but for the last year we've been told repeatedly told (especially by the US) that Netanyahu was ready to sign a deal & Hamas were the ones refusing.

Whilst the government relaxes rules on banker’s bonuses and clamps down on support for struggling families, thousands of children are going hungry at school. Our political system is rigged in favour of the wealthy few. We need to build an alternative. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
