Unmissable Zeteo interview 👇with the brilliant B’Tselem executive director and former Breaking the Silence EC, Yuli Novak. Born and bred in Israel in a Jewish “left” zionist milieu, Yuli’s anti-zionist convictions and work are formative and inspirational.

Unmissable piece by Jonathan Cook. The capture of governments and politicians by the billionaire class, unquestionably firmly in place in the US, has also reached dangerous levels here in the UK. Mandelson and McSweeney are but individual elements within it. Meanwhile, the system itself goes on.
Another reminder that, contrary to expectations, Bluesky is by far the most hostile social media platform for genuinely progressive writers like me.

UK big four banks on course to pocket annual profits of more than £45bn.
Bank branches vanishing. Profits from high charges, low interest rates on savings, scandals, speculation.
Govt must levy windfall taxes on banks.
One-third of UK children grow up in poverty, higher risk of dying young.
In some areas 62% of children live in poverty.
Children’s education, health, future employment prospects destroyed.
Caused by govts - austerity, low wages, spending cuts, fiscal rules.
Poverty is a political choice.

For over 45 years, neoliberal and neoclassical economics have dominated UK policy — and failed us. In a new series, I explain why they fail, and show how you can argue back with reason and evidence. Economics should serve people, not markets. Let’s take it back.

Why running a country isn’t like running a household youtu.be/sAKr55O7qaU?... Politicians love to say the government must “live within its means” – just like a household. But this analogy is completely wrong. In this video, I explain why.
Anyone who wants to take on the Tories, Reform and this failing Labour government is a friend of mine.
Looking forward to seeing what this looks like in practice.
Today, after 14 years, I’m resigning from the Labour Party.
Jeremy Corbyn and I will co-lead the founding of a new party, with other Independent MPs, campaigners and activists across the country.

Trump’s “brilliant” #Iran strike is already falling apart. $6 billion in bombs dropped, stockpiles quietly moved, and now Trump is begging Xi to keep the oil flowing. The U.S. isn’t leading, it’s doing #Netanyahu’s muscle work. New piece up. #kakistocracy

Last week: "deliver peace through strength."
This week: "time for diplomacy."
Starmer can't cosplay the Army General one week.
And then pretend to be the global Diplomat the next.
Total lack of moral legitimacy.
The Prime Ministers approach is both foolish & dangerous
Rachel Reeves finally gets the message. But when will she discover that every penny of public expenditure is newly created by @bankofengland.bsky.social and thus requires neither taxation nor borrowing?

All part of a repression ready, gift-wrapped surveillance state for Farage to pick up and run with.

My call for an independent inquiry into the UK's role in Gaza has passed its 1st reading in Parliament.
We will establish the truth over the UK’s complicity in genocide - and we will bring about justice for the Palestinian people.
This week, I am presenting my Gaza Inquiry Bill to uncover the truth about this country’s complicity in genocide.
