I saw a couple folks seemingly sincerely ask “what’s the problem with saying Zionist Operated Government. Most officials in US government are Zionists.”
This is me asking for my mentioned to be destroyed, but quick explanation of why it’s antisemitism.

An excellent video explaining
what it actually means when immigrants bring "Dependents".
It's not the lies you are being told.
Must watch 👇

Thousands upon thousands of antifascists out tonight across the country to smash the far right.

That hotel in Rotherham is not housing illegal migrants. It is housing asylum seekers. People who have fled from danger hoping the UK would be a place of safety, and are now surrounded by murderous thugs trying to burn them alive. Get it right, journalists. Tell the truth.

How dare you associate our families with Netanyahu, who has repeatedly destroyed any deal for their release.
While you tweet your lies, hostage family members were being arrested in Congress for protesting. We flew across the world to protest him.
Do not use us for propaganda.
To the members of Congress who boycotted Prime Minister Netanyahu's speech:
You just spat in the faces of the U.S. hostages still being held in Gaza by Hamas, the Americans murdered on 10/7 by Hamas, the 7 million Jews who reside in Israel, and the Jewish constituents you serve.
Shame on each and every single one of you.

Rwanda axed. Every person threatened, detained, bullied, you did this. You survived this.
Every lawyer, caseworker, support worker, campaigner. Everyone that tried to prevent arrests, amplified, shared, supported. Thank you 🧡
It’s gone. We won. Together.
Sir Keir Starmer has killed off the Rwanda deportation plan on the first day of his premiership
Labour insiders confirmed to The Telegraph that the scheme to deport migrants who arrived in the UK illegally to Rwanda was effectively “dead”

THREAD: Given tomorrow's election, I've been thinking about our nation's (poor) health, the wider determinants of health and how these have worsened and what it means for policy....
TLDR: worrying only about NHS & social care is missing the point

🧵Here's Ella & I outside with her judgment after the judge ruled there was “no doubt” that her account of rape and sexual assault by sex therapist Mike Lousada was true and awarded her over £200,000 in damage.
As you can see, we're delighted!
But this has been a hard fight.

Over 40 people killed at sea by the Greek coast guard.
9 of those people deliberately thrown into the sea.

On Oct 7th, my Israeli cousin was camping close to areas attacked by Hamas. The thought of her being kidnapped, or worse, still haunts me. A college acquaintance lost family in the attacks of his kibbutz.
But I don’t write much about the victims of Oct 7th or the hostages.

NO RWANDA FLIGHTS BEFORE THE ELECTION.
Which means no Rwanda flights.
We’ve fucking won.
NOW GET EVERYONE OUT OF DTENTION! #r4today
Rishi Sunak says on BBC Breakfast that flights to Rwanda will go in July. But then caveats that with "if I'm reelected on the 5th of July, these flights will go."
It's an admission they will not go before the election.

STUDENTS: REGISTER TO VOTE RIGHT NOW!
The law is as follows.
1. You can register at home AND at your term-time address, if that's more convenient for you.
2. You can CHOOSE on the day where to vote.
3. But you can ONLY legally vote in ONE place on the day.

My therapist said this to me when I was experiencing a lapse in treatment. I had been told I would probably end up back under services in six months time if I carried on doing what I was doing, and that initially made me feel a bit hopeless. But then he said this.
