I stand with Palestine and Lebanon. Abhor injustice of any kind. Reduce the gulf between poor and rich - tax the mega rich and close their tax loopholes/advantages. Support NHS protect them from private equity/healthcare. Rejoin EU. No DMs please
On the other hand, I wish I could find Stuart Thompson on this platform. This is the kind of person I like to follow and so should all of us…

…”the statement that the Israeli regime has no right to exist is not only a legally protected opinion. It is also demonstrably true, as a matter of both fact and law.” open.substack.com/pub/mondowei...
No, Israel does not have ‘a right to exist.’ Quite the contrary, actually.
Unlike the Zionist claim that "Israel has a right to exist," my assertion is rooted in international law. It’s no surprise they’re still claiming a right that has no basis in reality.

The greatest global threat to both peace and a habitable planet is the government of the USA. It has been so for a long time, but Trump has nixed the deniability. We should stop treating it as an ally that has mysteriously gone astray and start treating it as a hazard to be avoided and contained.

Court has found what we knew all along. Blanche’s “settlement” with Trump providing tax immunity was illegal self-dealing. Trump barred from using it and lawyers sanctioned. Great to see a court call out the corruption. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
