Reminder: Shireen Abu Akleh was shot in the face while doing her job. She was a Palestinian Christian. Then her funeral procession across Jerusalem was attacked. The pallbearers were beaten walking through Jerusalem and her coffin was almost dropped, all on live television.
Israel is the one country in the Middle East where Christians are free and safe. 🇮🇱 #Easter

“[T]hose of us who want to meaningfully engage with our national culture aren’t allowed to”
I know I've been moping lately about getting rejected by major UK film funds. Forgive me. I had 3 big rejections in the same week and it was very demoralising. But with a more sober head, I wanted to discuss why it's so upsetting, not so much personally, but more broadly...

I’m excited to announce that I’ve found the controversial aisle of my local grocery store. Who wore it best?

This🧵!We need far more visibility on this issue of “Britishness”in UK funding structures & how it does not match the supposed outward message of D&I & representation. 👉🏽“The people most affected by this country's spiral towards racist extremism have the least power to resist it”

If you stream @criterionchannl, I recommend its collection The Beautiful Game: International Football Films. Freedom Fields, a doc by @Naziha10 about the brave Libyan women trying to play the sport they love in post-revolutionary Libya & beyond, is riveting & beautifully filmed.

Why is the media so out of touch with working-class communities? Because the profession itself is so socially exclusive. Just 7% of Brits are privately educated yet 43% of the 100 most influential news editors & broadcasters and 44% of newspaper columnists went to private schools

Mick Lynch giving me life this morning - YES to that energy in the face of a warped media doing the work of a corrupt billionaire government … #WorkersUnite #BillionairesFuckOff #ToryFascistDictatorship #HostileEnvironment
Currently binge watching videos of Mick Lynch basically telling everyone in the media to F**K OFF & now I feel like I can take on the world! Labour could do with some lessons in calling out bull & challenging from him

Unite's 'profiteering report' has uncovered the corporations who have profited from the crisis. It’s not workers who are pushing up inflation; it’s often their employers. Workers should not be the ones who pay for it! theguardian.com/commentisfre…

113 people survived extreme violence in Libya before nearly drowning on a sinking boat in the Central Mediterranean. All they need is a safe place to receive assistance after such traumatic experiences and 10 days on the #GeoBarents in bad weather. They urgently need to disembark
