This is winter in Gaza because Israel had blocked the entry of not just aid, but essentials for life. Tents are not allowed in because the poles are considered dual use. 950k need new shelters. Hundreds of thousands are at high risk of flooding. Palestinians in Gaza need life essentials to enter. This is collective punishment and a crime in intl law.
Gaza Civil Defense: Entire displacement camps were flooded across all areas of the Gaza Strip early this morning.

Trying to decide which version of Yvette Cooper is worse As Home Secretary, her policy has now seen over 4,000 non violent protestors arrested. As Health Secretary, she's renewing the contract with Palantir. Really liked YC in opposition, she repeatedly tore Conservative politicians to shreds. In office, what a disaster and let down.

Now would be a good time to remind everyone of these Trump facts. 7 Times flew on Epstein's Plane. 97 Times Pleaded The Fifth. 34 Felony Convictions. 91 Criminal Charges. 26 Sexual Assault Allegations. 6 Bankruptcies. 5 Draft Deferments. 4 Indictments. 2 Impeachments. 2 Convicted Companies. 1 Fake University Shut Down. 1 Fake Charity Shut Down. $25 Million Fraud Settlement. $5 Million Sexual Abuse Verdict. $2 Million Fake Charity Abuse Judgment. $93 Million Sexual Abuse Judgements. $400+ Million Fraud Judgment. First President in history to serve a full term increase the deficit every year he was in office. First President in history to maintain a debt to GDP ratio over 100% for his entire term. Highest annual budget deficit. Most added to the national debt in a single term. Most new unemployment claims. Largest single day point drop in the history of the Dow. First major party candidate in half a century to lose the popular vote twice. Longest government shutdown in history (and he did that while his own party controlled both chambers of Congress). First President in the history of approval ratings to maintain a net negative approval rating for his entire term. First President to be impeached twice. First President to have bipartisan support for his conviction after impeachment (which happened both times). Most indictments, guilty pleas, and criminal convictions of members of an administration. First president to have a mugshot. A long list of claims about Donald Trump’s presidency, legal battles, and personal history is going viral and sparking intense reactions.

European Movement UK is saddened by the passing of Patrick Stewart, a legendary actor and European advocate. Here’s a brilliant sketch he starred in from 2016 defending the European Convention on Human Rights.

The Green's motion has forced Labour, Tories, Lib Dems & Reform into claiming Zionism is NOT racism & that those slaughtered in the name of this racist ideology are NOT victims of racism. Without ever being asked to explain WHY they judge Zionism NOT to be racism.

This is Lord Rothermere the owner of the Daily Mail. He lives in a massive mansion in the English countryside, but he pays no tax here because he identifies as French. While the Daily Mail is registered in Bermuda and pays no tax anywhere. That is his ‘Patriotism’.

Tommy Robinson was seen smiling and laughing as he left court, having just heard the good news that he has been found guilty, which means he can start asking gullible morons to give him money for his appeal, then for his release campaign.

💔💔A father screams in agony beside the lifeless body of his daughter. This is Chernihiv, Ukraine, where a russian attack killed two 15-year-old girls. No parent should ever have to experience this horror💔

This is what HATE towards asylum seekers does. A pensioner - 65yo Mark Neville threw a petrol bomb at a migrant hotel.... Police said Neville was "motivated by hate" and the attack was "designed to terrify residents and the local community" Let that sink in - A petrol bomb!!! This is what happens when asylum seekers are dehumanised and turned into targets. When politicians use inflammatory rhetoric about vulnerable people, it has consequences. Lives are being put at risk. If you think this is acceptable you really need to seek help and check you aren't being radicalised by your algorithm and politicians.
