Tens of thousands of Palestinians have been displaced and 5 are dead due to flooding in Gaza this weekend. More than half a million children lack safe shelter as winter begins. The Israeli government must allow building materials and winter supplies into Gaza immediately.

Yet again a stronger message than the previous Starmer administration from @Ed_Miliband re: Gaza- clear reference to Israeli responsibilities, including legal obligations, that it is the occupying power. But to give meaning to "not standing by", UK must impose sanctions.
The humanitarian situation in Gaza is getting worse. Heavy rain. Flooded tents. The reality on the ground is heartbreaking. The UK government will not stand by. We will not rest until we bring an end to the intolerable suffering.

This deserves significantly more coverage. The scale of the depravity only matched by the simplicity of the solution: let wholesale aid into Gaza now

It’s 2026. And we’re still arguing about whether glyphosate causes cancer. Whether vaccines cause autism. Whether mRNA vaccines are dangerous. Meanwhile, scientists are developing new cancer treatments, preventing diseases, improving agriculture and finding ways to feed billions of people. Imagine what we could achieve if we spent less time recycling old fears and more time understanding new discoveries. Science is moving forward. Our public conversations need to catch up.

I put a map of the "Yellow Line" on a topographic map of Gaza. It shows that Israel is pushing Palestinians into the lowest-lying parts of Gaza, ensuring that as many people as possible are flooded by cold water and sewage. Let's be clear: This policy is intended to kill.
🚨HORRIBLE: Sewage has mixed with rainwater as floodwaters engulf displaced Palestinians’ tents in Gaza. For the fourth consecutive winter, families are once again facing flooding, contamination, and unimaginable suffering as a result of Israel’s genocidal war.

This is a terrible backslide. Thereby is a huge swathe of infrastructure investment in electric car charging on the books, all privately funded because the government has decide to play no role in building it. But now they've basically screwed over the companies installing the infrastructure who had been planning on a huge rollout based in targets even the Tories were sticking too. Really stupid short-termism. Terrible for investment, terrible for the environment. Burnham is really showing how little he cares about climate change.
EXCL: Ministers are expected to make steep cuts to the government’s electric vehicle targets this week, in a move that will relieve carmakers but alarm many Labour MPs who are worried about the government’s commitment to the green agenda - @kiranstacey reports theguardian.com/environment/…

I have written along with many of my colleagues urging the government to take emergency action to address the nightmare situation facing Palestinians in Gaza as a result of the floods. This is a desperate tragedy with lives being lost already. caabu.org/news/news/75-uk-pa…

Giving up data centres means surrendering scientific discovery itself.
frontier models, with lots of test time compute, are becoming the engine of scientific discovery

75% of constituencies in England and Wales spend more on welfare than their workers pay in income tax and National Insurance. London and the South East are the only regions that are net contributors; the North East is the most welfare-dependent region in England.

We want the UK Government to launch an inquiry into any British involvement in Israeli operations in Gaza. This petition is so close to the 100,000 needed to be considered for a debate in Parliament. Please sign & share - let's get it over the line! petition.parliament.uk/petit…

This is winter in Gaza because Israel had blocked the entry of not just aid, but essentials for life. Tents are not allowed in because the poles are considered dual use. 950k need new shelters. Hundreds of thousands are at high risk of flooding. Palestinians in Gaza need life essentials to enter. This is collective punishment and a crime in intl law.
Gaza Civil Defense: Entire displacement camps were flooded across all areas of the Gaza Strip early this morning.

If ever there was a day to think about Gaza, and man’s inhumanity to man, then this is the day. #RemembranceDay
To whom it may concern: It is with great sadness that I inform you that the first child has died from the extreme cold inside a tent in Gaza. The tent offered no protection against the freezing temperatures, and the lack of heating was enough to end his life.

In the late 1990s, malaria accounted for more than half of paediatric admissions at Kilifi’s main hospital in Kenya. And today? Severe childhood malaria has become so rare there that researchers say it is now difficult to run clinical trials for new treatments. That incredible transformation came from decades of consistent access to insecticide-treated nets, test and treat policies, community health workers and sustained surveillance, and the district played a role in piloting the new malaria vaccines.

These floods were exactly why @caabu organised for 75 politicians to write to Ed Milliband about Gaza. Only pressure will push Israel to allow proper aid access into Gaza. caabu.org/news/news/75-uk-pa…
A Palestinian man breaks down in tears outside his tent, flooded by rain, helpless to do anything. Around 70,000 displacement tents across the Gaza Strip were flooded as the first winter storm hit, destroying bedding and personal belongings and leaving thousands of families facing a harsh winter without safe shelter or heating. Civil Defence crews responded to more than 1,500 distress calls from affected families. Displacement tents in several areas, including Gaza Port, Deir al-Balah, al-Mawasi in Khan Younis and Jabalia, were also damaged.
