EU's foreign policy chief is not mincing his words - he says Israel is provoking famine and using starvation 'as a weapon of war'. Where is the same clarity from UK leaders - why is our Govt still failing to call it out and hold Israeli Govt to account?

Here's another for you @SuellaBraverman. 18 year old boy from Enfield. His Mum dies and he has no family. He ends up homeless living in a shed. He gets my contact details and I help him. I put him in the Travelodge on the A10 for 2 weeks until I can find him a room in a housing association. I knew the staff so this was possible. He was scared, cold, wet, and starving when I picked him up. He cried for hours. Anyhow we looked after him and now he's doing a degree in engineering. It was not a lifestyle choice for him. And I'm sure he'd be more than happy to educate you on this.

R.I.P. Amazon forest?
"The Amazon rainforest is...nearing of a critical transition of the coupled Amazon atmosphere-vegetation system induced by forest loss due to deforestation, droughts & fires. The transition would lead to substantially drier conditions, under which the rainforest could likely not be maintained."

Absurd that Solicitor General is prosecuting a pensioner for silently holding a sign with the law written on it. It shows how afraid government & judges are that juries will not convict activists when they are told the true scale of the climate crisis bylinetimes.com/2023/09/18/a…

Earlier this year, Nigel Farage harangued me on TV for supporting the peaceful protests of @JustStop_Oil, saying “as a man of law, you think this behaviour is acceptable?”; & now here he is seemingly supporting more serious anti-Ulez criminality… teapawt.net/gbnews/status/16484009…

I'm currently the target of a significant scam operation on Twitter involving 100s of profiles . They come in the form of paid-for adverts claiming that I made money from cryptocurrencies , then using my fake 'endorsement' to encourage others to invest too . . .
For the avoidance of doubt , these are all scams .
Please RT !
And @ElonMusk @Safety - please fix this !

Shifty Sunak says he believes in net zero but doesn’t want to load costs onto ordinary people, it’s the new Tory mantra. Ironic, given huge the rises in energy, food and mortgage costs they’ve already imposed on the nation. And deceitful because ordinary people are being loaded with this cost. The savings gifted to house-builders will be paid by us all. He’s doing precisely what he said he isn’t. And it’s not a net zero issue btw - that’s misdirection. This is about water pollution. Sunak talks shite while allowing more shite to be pumped into our rivers and seas. That’s the news.

In took just 17 hours of trading yet the owners of Britian's 3 largest house building firms go to bed tonight £643,000,000 richer than when they woke up yesterday morning.
This was never about persevering our rivers it was always about persevering Conservative Party donations.

Dear 🇬🇧,
Here’s your weekly reminder that 10 years ago, your NHS was ranked the #1 healthcare system on Earth. You don’t need a new system. You need a new govt that won’t destroy your public NHS to feed a private system. Your family isn’t safe in #ToryBritain.
#SOSNHS
ALT The 2013 Commonwealth Fund Overall Healthcare Rankings. The UK’s public system was ranked 1 overall. The privatised US system was ranked last overall. Private healthcare is always worse for patients and worse for the taxpayer. You don’t need a new system. You need a new government that won’t catastrophically defund the NHS.

This, ladies and gentlemen, is the story that should be leading the news. And which the police should be involved in. An attempted cover up of woeful decisions that helped contribute to loss of life. And the media in the main couldn’t give a toss. Because Huw Edwards. Ffs

Cornwall voted massively for Brexit and is 100% Tory-run.
It received over £1 billion in EU funding from 2000 and was to receive another £350m after 2020.
Instead, it was awarded £18 million and beaches covered in human excrement.
Brexit illustrated.

The Titanic submarine is a modern morality tale of what happens when you have too much money, and the grotesque inequality of sympathy, attention and aid for those without it.
Migrants are “meant” to die at sea; billionaires aren’t.

The Titanic sub billionaire rescue mission is entering final hours of hope to find survivors.
Meanwhile in Italy & Greece, search & rescue to save people at sea is criminalised.
