I hope that more diplomats will follow the brave lead of Mark Smith and speak up against the enablers of Israel's atrocities. #DiplomatsAgainstGenocide

Sir Thomas Winsor, former Chief Inspector of Constabulary, "It's often said that noisy marches in relation to Gaza have been policed differently to these riots. Yes, of course they have" "Because noisy marches are not setting fire to hotels, or throwing rocks to the police or setting fire to police vans" "Every time there is a policing operation the police will assess the threats, the harms and the risks involved. If there is more threats, harms and risks, then they'll police it harder" "The police were taking a real battering.. Missiles.. Vans being set alight.. The community came out to stand with their friends and their families and their neighbours, who are the police.. To protect the police and to show the police that they have their support"

The Government is today celebrating Visa’s issued to skilled workers, health & care staff having fallen by a quarter in the first three months of this year. In other news we have a desperate shortage of health & care staff

Brilliant demolition of Brexit on live TV. You’d never see this on a BBC vox pop. Rachel in Parliament Square tells it like it is at the #PeoplesVoteMarch.

I know papers need to find a Brit angle, but maybe on reflection you don’t think this might be pathetically small beer against the scale of what is unfolding?

Beware of warmongers and the military-industrial complex. A full-on regional war will lead to immeasurable suffering for everyone. It must be avoided at all costs.

These Tory MPs calling for Angela Rayner to resign over £1,500 actually went out and defended Tory MP Nadhim Zahawi when he owed HMRC £4.8 MILLION QUID.

This is the man who declared Israel had the right to cut off the essentials of life. In doing so, he helped legitimise Israeli impunity. That impunity has now led to the slaughter of British aid workers.
Reports of the death of British nationals – among others from World Central Kitchen – in an Israeli strike on Gaza are horrifying. Our thoughts are with the families of all of those killed.

My heart goes out to the loves ones of all those whose lives have been lost whilst trying to help others. There needs to be a thorough and swift investigation as to how this happened, and also what impact it will have on the ability of the maritime corridor to function given it is World Central Kitchen who were receiving and distributing the desperately needed aid. There is also still no explanation for the January bombing of the Medical Aid for Palestine complex in a declared safe zone which had also been deconflicted directly with the IDF, which four British doctors thankfully survived. Humanitarian agencies must be given the assurances they need that their people will be protected.

It's revealing that some people in British politics seem more upset about the new England football shirt than about new figures showing a record number of children are growing up in poverty. If they got their priorities right, maybe we wouldn't have these problems?

The attack on @SadiqKhan is very deliberate, it’s an attempt to stigmatise , stereotype and silence British Muslims and stop younger generations of British Muslims from entering public life. The standards we hold Labour to on racism are the standards we should hold ourselves to on racism, to do anything else makes us hypocrites @Conservatives
"One set of rules for Labour and another we want to apply for ourselves." After Lee Anderson's comments against Sadiq Khan, Tory Peer Baroness @SayeedaWarsi tells @carolvorders it seems her 'colleagues want to toxify and destroy the Party' with their 'deep-rooted hypocrisy'.

1/6 Always remember the tyranny of authoritarian language. That way powerful people change the way they describe the same concept, but with starkly juxtaposed language for different populations🧵
Today in Parliament we have laid an order to ban overseas care workers from bringing dependants. This is just one part of our plan to deliver the biggest-ever cut in migration 👇

Didn’t sleep much last night thinking about the fact Rafah may be levelled - killing many of the millions of refugees sheltering there and the hostages who should never ever have been kidnapped If you’re still justifying Netanyahu or Hamas’ actions - your soul is lost.
