Perhaps, one day, schoolkids will study this squalid little chapter in British terror-panic history. When they do, I hope these two headlines from today are printed side by side, with clear annotation of which individual faced more outrage and condemnation.

As I just said on CNN, my father's parents were Nakba survivors. I don't want Israeli children to live in fear and I don't want Palestinian children to starve to death. There is nothing anyone could do to make me put nationalistic talking points above basic human rights.

Luke O’Neill: US science is under attack – the rest of the world will suffer the consequences
Lately, when I meet scientists from the US, the main topic of conversation is how the Trump administration is attacking science. They fear for their jobs and the ability to fund their research.

His theory of normalization not just helps explain recent rise of far right but also warns for overestimating strength of democracy.

A few years ago I made a series of mini drawings of interesting Irish women (available as a print here www.ciaraioch.com/artprints/p/...) - this thread is a little information on the women featured, partly because it's useful, but mostly because I'm trying to be sustainable by recycling content.
