#FreeDrHussamAbiSafiya who refused to leave his immobile patients in Al-Shifa hospital. One of 10,000 hostages held in Israeli prisons including over 450 children. Where is the international outcry? Why are the humanitarian voices in Israel so few?

We fasted for 25 hours in front of houses of parliament for Gaza Then we stopped. Not an option in Gaza or Darfur. But important to show where we stand on genocide.

Campaigning for Cam Uni Chancellor to be an ethical force. Focusing on its core purposes, education, research, and caring for all its staff and students.

Yaser's family have been ordered to move again in Gaza or face extermination. With no safe areas they have decided to stay. He calls for Cambridge University and its colleges to end complicity. The University can be an ethical force, follow @kingscollege.bsky.social and divest @susanjb7.bsky.social

Peter Freeman, chair of the anti-democratic Cambridge Growth Company, talked to Cambridge residents on 15th May. Tony Booth asks if his plans for massive growth will pay attention to the exhausted carbon budget. He did not seem to know it existed. @susanjb7.bsky.social
