To be clear, Israel is doing this with the implicit approval of "the West" (USA, Canada, Europe). If you are an American taxpayer, you are paying for this.
With sleepwear, carrying their most important belongings, and putting their hands up to show their civilian identity, hundreds of families were forced out of their homes in Jenin Eyewitnesses reported that Israeli forces tear-gassed civilians as they fled

The anti-boycott bill passed its second reading in UK parliament last night as @UKLabour, the main opposition, chose to stand aside. This is despite Labour commissioning a legal opinion, which warned the bill likely breaches the UK's international law obligations. 1/5
🧵Why should you care about the UK govt's new ‘anti-boycott’ bill? This bill threatens our collective right to take action for justice by making ethical decisions on how public money is spent. 1/6

Taking the sewage scandal to the High Court with ⁦@GoodLawProject⁩ ✊Water companies have been putting their profits above protecting people or planet for 30 years. Sewage pollution blights our rivers & coastlines. It’s time for a serious action! ⁦⁦@JolyonMaugham⁩

Registered vehicles on UK roads: 1991: 20 million 2007: 27 million 2016: 37 million 2020: 38.3 million 2022: 40.8 million (2030: 50 million?) Congestion is caused — and air pollution and climate change is made worse — not by cycleways or LTNs, but by too many motor vehicles. – at Byker, England

#TheSimpsons picket was everything today. This show got me through the darkest days of the pandemic and has become a true comfort show. I got to express that to THE Matt Groening…but what happened next was truly bonkers… #WGAStrike #WGAStrong #DoTheWriteThing
Today at Fox was surreal to say the least…

Someone has superglued the lock on my Brompton on The Cut, London SE1 outside Costa. If anyone has a battery powered angle grinder or a set of bolt croppers I'd appreciate a visit. – at Camberwell, London

After dumping sewage in seas, chemically polluting rivers, failing to upgrade Victorian pipes & handing huge dividends to shareholders, all water firms have to offer is “sorry - oh by the way we’re putting your bills up”. What a shitshow. @Feargal_Sharkey bbc.co.uk/news/science-envir…

From Day One, the new laws have proved to be as oppressive, anti-democratic and discriminatory as many of us warned.

This is the beginning of the new world most people seem to want - the one people won’t do anything about, the one which protesters get criticised for trying to stop, the one which rich oil companies are inflicting on us with a complicit media and government

Keir Starmer says the Tory policing bill that criminalises peaceful protest should be allowed to “bed in” and that he won’t repeal it. Servile.

Daily.
This is your reminder that the daily budget for the NYPD is $29 million. Imagine what we could achieve if we could divest from policing and instead spend millions on resources that would truly help New Yorkers, like housing, jobs, schools, mental health support, and more.

Cambodia just set a new heat record for the Month of May. It is worth noting that the hottest time of year for many places in this part of the world is around April and May. This fact does not detract from the scale and severity of this long-lived heatwave.
