Why does the BritCard have a burning eye logo with the word "panopticon" written underneath it? That's just the company that makes them. That's absolutely fine. Don't worry about that.

Built in the 13th century. So that mosque stood for 800 years with every sort of person from every place and every religion in the world passing through Gaza century after century, only for it to be blown up by some shithead loser sitting behind a computer that we probably paid for.

That the European Archaeology Association overturned their decision to exclude Israeli institutions from participating in their annual conference, meaning organisations intertwined with Israel's genocide of Palestinians will still be represented at EAA 2025, is appalling.

I feel like it's hard to get across to my English pals that if the Taoiseach **made a point of insisting to the press** that they put Irish flags all over their house, and made sure to 'always' sit by one in their office, then they would immediately, and forever, be tainted as a massive weird freak.
NEW: Keir Starmer has said he hangs the English flag in his home and 'always sits front of a Union Jack'

He told the BBC: 'I'm very encouraging of flags. I think they're patriotic and a great symbol of our nation.'

The mental health benefits of not knowing any history right now must be massive. Moving through your day with total equanimity. What happens next? Who knows? Maybe something good

As end-of-empire scenarios go it is so much more dignified to get your capital city sacked by the Visigoths than to have a bunch of illiterate rich people in their 70s doing it through a series of incomprehensible tantrums because their brains were defeated by their phones.

Matched. Consider doing the same. Free Palestine 🇵🇸
It's pay day. I donated £30 to the UN World Food Programme who last week delivered 350 truckloads of food to Gaza under extremely dangerous conditions. But it’s not enough. They want to rush in as much food as they can.

Who will match my £30 donation and pass it on?

who thought laying out a policy that effectively says “we will only realize a palestinian state if they keep getting slaughtered by israel” was a good idea?
U.K. will recognize Palestinian state unless Israel agrees to ceasefire, British PM says | CBC News
Prime Minister Keir Starmer said Tuesday the U.K. will recognize a Palestinian state in September — unless Israel agrees to a ceasefire in Gaza and takes steps toward long-term peace.

Malak, her sister Maali, and their family have been forced from their home in Gaza and are living in a tent without even basic necessities. They really need help, esp. Maali who requires constant medical care. I’ve been donating what I can so please donate if you are able to or share their posts

These pictures will be remembered for centuries.

Future generations will ask:

"Who did what, and when?

Who made this abomination possible?

Who spoke out - and who remained silent?"

Make sure you have good answers.

Reminder: Labour started their rollback of trans rights pretty much on day 1 of gaining power, that was MONTHS before the US election. Starmer isn't doing this for trade deals, he's doing this because he wants to.

this takes me back to that frankly hideous speech that hilary benn made over syria, the labour right more than any political faction are completely obsessed with the optics of statesmanship. they love when war and conflict happen because they can put on their sad, grave voice. they'll never stop it.
Kit Malthouse to Lammy "can he not see his inaction & cowardice is making this country irrelevant? Can he also not see the personal risk to him, given our intl obligations, that he may end up at the Hague because of his inaction?"

Lammy tells Malthouse his language is unbecoming

Every day, Israel deliberately massacres unarmed civilians it has deliberately starved.

How is this possible?

Because instead of framing Israel’s atrocities as obscene outrages demanding urgent action, the Western media has normalised Israel’s atrocities.

There's no coming back from this. The majority of voters in the western countries that are arming Israel do not support this.
So that means it's political leaders ignoring the will of their voters to fund a mass extermination.
This is their legacy forever unless they stop it
