Sharif has social media that predates the war, a lot of medical documentation and sent me a photo of his Palestinian passport.
Being from Gaza makes life incredibly difficult even when not in Gaza. Sharif is essentially stuck with no way to make money and a child with significant health issues.

On Anika Wells' travel, so many press gallery hacks trotting out the cliche that it "doesn't pass the pub test".

while largely ignoring policy failures on housing, climate, poverty, tax, gambling, accountability & corruption...

Press gallery in strong "thank fuck we don't have to worry about policy" mode with it's coverage of Wells' travel.
Oh you found a travel thing from 2022? So why didn't you note it when it was first reported? It's not like it was only just announced.

There really aren't words for how absolutely fucking disgusting this actually is - the president of the USA raped little children, and yet people are still willingly to stand beside him in support.
I mean really, WTF is wrong with these fuckers?
HE RAPED CHILDREN, FOR FUCK'S SAKE!

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Ranin. Ranin was a teacher before this. Ranin had two children Misk, 2 and Sanad, 1 but she lost sweet little Misk. Ranin is also pregnant and her tent was flooded this week. She has a new fundraiser and could really use help.

Important to be clear here that the proposed homes wouldn't mean demolishing the 18th century garden - it's just that they might possibly be visible from it. What appallingly selfish behaviour.
