I still don't fully understand why that IDF soldier pulling a statue of Christ off that crucifix and smashing its head in with a hammer is doing more diplomatic harm than the attacks on the Holy Family Church in Gaza did

Switching to no eggs at all would be 👌👌
Israeli forces targeted Palestinian children in al-Mughayyir, in the occupied West Bank, subjecting them to intimidation, abuse, and degrading treatment.
Under the Israeli apartheid system, Palestinian children are routinely exposed to attacks, detention, and fear.
This was a choice by Labour.

"the young people I am trying to teach believe, as I did once, that telling the story will rouse the Western public that pays for this and most other wars to persuade their leaders to stop the killing".
We all know who invented the Push Pop. We all know who is responsible for that mediocrity.

The Irish government wants to make an example of Daithi. He was right to oppose the use of Shannon airport by US military planes.
I've been leaked a letter from the Telegraph's new owners.

Maybe it bears repeating, I don't know any more, but can anyone fathom the notion of ambulances being bombed in Belfast or Manchester or Glasgow and then the paramedics who go to help being bombed and then the helpers who go to help them being bombed and that being a normal thing and not savagery?
This is outrageous.
Just after Trump announced his sham ceasefire, Israel bombed an ambulance workers funeral in South Lebanon.
Channel 4 News was there and captured everything.
Israel does NOT want peace. It wants to keep committing genocide and stealing other people’s land.

Lelia is a pal’s sister in law and I met her in France last year, not long after she’d marked her 90th birthday with a skydive raising over €30,000 for MSF. What a woman.
Allotments don't grow just healthy fresh food. They grow community. Not everyone is into sport. There are other ways to get fresh air and exercise. Allotments are a win-win. A win for biodiversity, community, mental and physical health, and social cohesion.
There should be no waiting list!!
There's an instinct to blame the left that these agri protests are often right wing or led by people who are right wing cause "the left" didn't engage but that ignores that many of these people have their own conservative to right wing ideologies.
