I watched with a bitter taste in my mouth for the last two years, but I don't think I'll be able to stomach watching Eurovision 2026 while countries are actively boycotting it. What an absolute mess, ruining a fun tradition to appease Israel. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/ce...
Netherlands, Spain and Ireland boycott Eurovision after Israel allowed to compete
They were among a number of countries who had called for Israel to be excluded over the humanitarian toll of the war in Gaza.

There's going to be a lot of people telling trans people in the UK to "calm down" and their expressions of rage "are not helpful" to the organizations caving to fascism.

Fuck em. This is not about being helpful. This is about being recognized as equal human beings by society.

It appears Eurovision has decided to move forward with having Israel in next year's song contest, triggering boycotts from several member nations.

What a shame. Their participation this year was used as a propaganda tool to rehabilitate the image of a country committing an unforgivable genocide.

The UK must follow Ireland, Spain, the Netherlands and Slovenia’s lead and boycott Eurovision.

We cannot have “business as usual” with Israel, a genocidal apartheid state.

Wes Streeting orders review of mental health diagnoses as benefit claims soar
Wes Streeting orders review of mental health diagnoses as benefit claims soar
Health secretary has asked experts to investigate whether normal feelings have become ‘over-pathologised’ The health secretary, Wes Streeting, has ordered a clinical review of the diagnosis of mental health conditions, according to reports. Streeting is understood to be concerned about a sharp rise in the number of people making sickness benefits claims because of diagnoses for mental illness, autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), the Times reported. He has asked leading experts to investigate whether normal feelings have become “over-pathologised”, the newspaper said, as he seeks to grapple with the 4.4 million working-age people now claiming sickness or incapacity benefit. The figure has risen by 1.2 million since 2019, while the number of 16 to 34-year-olds off work with long-term sickness because of a mental health condition is said to have grown rapidly in the same period. Streeting told the Times he knew from “personal experience how devastating it can be for people who face poor mental health, have ADHD or autism and can’t get a diagnosis or the right support”. He added: “I also know, from speaking to clinicians, how the diagnosis of these conditions is sharply rising. “We must look at this through a strictly clinical lens to get an evidence-based understanding of what we know, what we don’t know, and what these patterns tell us about our mental health system, autism and ADHD services. “That’s the only way we can ensure everyone gets timely access to accurate diagnosis and effective support.” The review, which is expected to be launched on Thursday, is set to be led by Prof Peter Fonagy, a clinical psychologist at University College London specialising in child mental health, with Sir Simon Wessely, a former president of the Royal College of Psychiatry, acting as vice-chair.

All of the money that goes into the benefit system is spent by the people that receive it so it actually boosts the economy. The money given to billionaires is hoarded often outside of the country.

Just something to think about while you’re spouting drivel about people on benefits and immigrants.

If there's one thing I've learned from several years of membership in a demographic specifically targeted by the state and the ruling class, it's that genocides happen because the majority aren't just decent people who are concerned but too scared to fight back; they actively ignore it, or like it
