Very disappointing from the new Prime Minister, very much sounding like the previous PM. These are among the world’s most vulnerable and desparate people. They need safe routes and humanity from responsible politicians, not grandstanding. This isn’t doing politics differently.

Israeli airstrikes bombed medical warehouses near Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah, in the central Gaza Strip, early Saturday 1 August. The strikes destroyed at least half of the facilities and extensively damaged nearby tents sheltering displaced Palestinians, witnesses said.

The democracy denier PM is trying to wipeout our country by permanently binding Scotland to the UK via a constitution like Catalan with Spain. I despise this self styled “King of the North”. He seem determined to push us down the same historic road as the ROI. www.thenational.scot/news/2642939...

The New York Times reports the U.S. dropped a 2,000-pound bomb on a family home in Iran, killing a husband, wife, and their 2-year-old son. The paper found no indication of a nearby military target.

The weapon, one of the largest in the U.S.’s arsenal, struck a house in a heavily populated area, according to a Times analysis.

My latest blog piece, Burnham's mini bounce has less to do with Labour improving (spoiler alert it hasn't) and more to do with the immolation of Reform UK on a Clacton binfire of Farage's arrogance, greed and entitlement. weegingerdug.wordpress.com/2026/08/01/b...

Burnham’s mini bounce

Our visitors have left now. It was lovely to see them. As far as the blog is concerned I’m able to type again. There was a problem with the keyboard on my laptop which has now been repaired. …

The USA is using Scotland as advertising and I am not okay with this.

Just about sums it up.

"One Jewish life is worth ten million Palestinian lives."

🚨 BREAKING: A UN Independent Commission has concluded that Israeli authorities continue to commit genocide in Gaza, citing the deliberate targeting of Palestinian children as key evidence of genocidal intent.

and for saying, 'I oppose genocide'. It's illegal now in the UK to be against the Government's support for mass murder.If there was one decent thing Burnham could have done immediately, it would have been to unproscribe Palestine Action, but not with his Friends of Israel Chief of Staff and Cabinet.

Arrested for CLAPPING !! Is the UK even a Democracy?

Israel has killed more than 1,200 people in Gaza since the so-called ceasefire went into effect 10 months ago.

There's a clear pattern here.

This young mother has lost four children. Four small children who were slaughtered by human monsters. The genocide in Gaza continues. The place of the damned murderers and those who sent them is behind bars and locks, and I will do everything in my power to ensure they get there. (Ofer Cassif)

Yesterday the 55 member states of #UEFA threatened to boycot #FIFA #football matches if it did not withdraw its new funding proposals. Members of UEFA include England, Scotland Wales and N. Ireland. Last night's TV news (#BBC and Sky I think) banner read 'England threatens to boycot the World Cup'.

Couldn't agree more. Unfortunately our latest Zionist Prime Minister has stacked his Cabinet and private office with Labour Friends of Genocide (sorry, Israel).The UK is being governed for the benefit of Israel and is an international disgrace. (See the most recent arrests of opponents of genocide.)

Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. Israel is conducting pogroms in the West Bank. Israel is carrying out "ethnic cleansing" in Lebanon, Syria. Israel lit an unprovoked war against Iran. OF COURSE ALL OF ISRAEL SHOULD BE BOYCOTTED. You need a name change: Labour Friends of GENOCIDE. #ukpolitics

HERE’S WHAT REALLY HAPPENED The Met Police are desperate to save face following their unjustified attack on peaceful protesters yesterday. 152 people were arrested outside Westminster Magistrates Court, most of whom had a court listing in their name for a “terrorism” charge.

Just sitting on the pavement and clapping is now terrorism. Not saying anything, not holding or displaying any signs, just sitting on the pavement & clapping. Andy Burnham can stop this. But he isn't. Reporting by Steven Methven for @novaramedia.com

No-one is safe in Burham's authoritarian, Zionist regime. What a bloody waste of time replacing Starmer to end up with more of the same.

Jonathan Porritt has been arrested. As he says "trying to save lives is not terrorism, exposing this Governments complicity in genocide is not terrorism."

This is how the President of the United Sates spent yesterday, between rounds of golf. These are his posts on 'truth social'. Is there anyone out there who seriously doubts that the man is certifiably insane? #DonaldTrump #MadTrump

Apparently, any version of democracy in Scotland that has not been determined by Westminster is off-limits. The same Westminster democracy that can appoint any failed politician to be a government ministers and give them a seat in the House of Lords, so they never have to lose an election again.

Nothing we can do????? Hope Dems have prepared????? Not hopeful.
