Fascinating to see how the ‘Is Zionism racism’ question was debated on TV nearly 40 years ago. History really does repeat itself. Well worth your time:

Iran has not attacked another nation in the Middle East in over 200 years. Israel has attacked every nation in the Middle East uninterrupted for the past 80 years. Yet mainstream media has convinced you that it’s Iran 🇮🇷 Are you dumb?

May those who live, work or holiday on top of this have nightmares about what lies beneath them. May they imagine the cries of the dying and may it keep them awake at night.

It’s now clear that suppressing Palestinian activism and running cover for Israel’s genocide is worse under Andy Burnham than under Keir Starmer. From banning books, academics, suppressing free speech, to endlessly weaponing antisemitism. Demonstrably worse.

A rubbish, self-sabotaging budget that guarantees average people will get poorer this Parliament, followed by crackdowns on pro-Palestine speech.
How is Burnham breaking with Starmerism again? Why does 2026 seem so much like 2024?
This is another deplorable act of authoritarianism by Shabana Mahmood. Malm is a highly respected associate professor from Sweden focusing on climate change, imperialism and Palestine. He's mystified as to why he's blocked as he travelled here in May. The only difference this time is he's speaking on a panel about Palestine with Huda Ammori, the founder of Palestine Action, at an event hosted by Tribune and Palestine Deep Dive.

A new asset class is being identified as ‘Nature’s Economy’, where a country’s rivers, lakes, forests are targeted by a sovereign wealth fund controlled by a Saudi Prince, or Blackrock for example.
Locals will have no say on Natural Asset Companies (NACs) monetising green spaces as not yet existing in the economy or indeed in a corporation's financial portfolio.
NACs would earn money by ‘improving’ ecosystems and putting a dollar figure on benefits like clean air or wildlife habitat.
25 state attorneys general opposed NACs, and the NYSE withdrew it in January 2024
But….
What @_whitneywebb Webb and Others Are Warning About.
There are Alternative Implementation Routes:
The World Economic Forum continues promoting “debt-for-nature swaps” that allow countries to restructure debt in exchange for conservation commitments, effectively transferring control of natural resources PERC. BlackRock CEO Larry Fink is pushing “tokenisation” to turn natural assets into tradeable blockchain-based financial products as part of a global carbon market.
Larry Fink (CEO Blackrock) is now chairman of the WEF, he replaced Klaus Schwab.
The United States Geological Survey identifies “Dartmoor in the east to Isles of Scilly in the west” …as one of the top five lithium-enriched granite areas worldwide. Dartmoor is now a part of The Plymouth and South Devon Freeport.
The Dartmoor National Park wasn’t even aware of the fact it was incorporated in the freeport/SEZ zone which is 75km in diameter.
What is happening in Dartmoor is being repeated across England, Scotland, and Wales.
Zone Fever is eclipsing the UK.
The natural asset financialization agenda is global and is being implemented in practice via massive deregulation via free zones, and Brexit Britain is faking Net Zero targets via greenwashing to privatise all critical infrastructure under a corporate political model, which the majority of citizens are excluded from and have zero say in the decision-making process
This is happening. This is a corporate coup.
Webb exposes how the financial elite are transforming environmental crises into profit engines. At COP26, global bankers and asset managers—led by figures like Mike Bloomberg and Mark Carney—unveiled plans not to solve ecological collapse, but to commodify it.

Your reminder Bandera was a Ukrainian Nazi responsible for the massacre of tens of thousands of Polish and Jewish civilians in WWII.
We just gave Ukraine £10 billion.

£10,000,000,000 billion to Ukraine in the budget.
On top of £3,000,000,000 bn every year "for as long as it takes"
That's on top of £25,000,000,000 bn already given to Zelensky.
Remember when our media laid an egg because Corbyn wanted free school dinners for all £700m.

Tesco are making £4bn a year in profit.
About 50% of their staff are on Universal Credit.
Why don't we crackdown on this unneeded benefit for billionaires?

Ukraine officially refuses to provide medical services to the third of their population who speak Russian and cannot speak Ukrainian.

The most corrupt country in the world Part 1,097
They do not represent ordinary people.
Excellent and disturbing new report from @EndCorruptionUK based on over 40 FOI requests.
Spotlight has found that UK govt ministers have held 137 meetings about Data Centres and AI growth zones between June 2024 and June 2026... but they didn't meet a single environmental group.
Government met only two community groups - but only AFTER the government had approved growth zones in their communities.
At the same time, Spotlight found that 38 government officials had left to take positions at AI and tech firms.
Spotlight is (correctly) calling for a halt on the approval of new AI and Data Centre Development zones until there has been a proper national consultation on community and environmental impacts. In other countries, these consultations have led to important new regulations to enforce environmental protections.

Watch this.
Lubna Speitan, author of the Greens4Palestine motion “Zionism is racism”, spells out the central obscenity of our age – the grotesque inversion whereby the victims of ethnic cleansing, Apartheid and genocide must constantly fend off accusations from their tormentors that it is they who are the racists.
“We as Palestinians are being silenced and gaslit and vilified [as we] witness the annihilation, the cold-blooded murder of our families, of our people… our children burnt with phosphorus, having to endure amputations with no anaesthetic, having their limbs torn and shredded, their bodies burnt by phosphorus, being starved to death … And to have to sit here … and try to bury my feelings so I can eloquently and diplomatically shield my anger, my rage, my anguish that every Palestinian is feeling, is an insult.” /1
