Ant Middleton tweeted, "Well done all in Southampton!" Meanwhile, this is what the locals had to put up with. She felt terrified and unsafe and had never felt unsafe in her own home before.

The key driver of “social disorder [and] violent crime in particular is inequality.” After the rioting in Southampton, investigative journalist Paul Holden argues on Novara Live that police forces are having to deal with “a social fabric that is in serious strain after 40 years of Thatcherism.” Meanwhile, the political right is extremely skilful at creating narratives of “white grievance” out of isolated incidents, in order to serve “the most extractive forms of capitalism”.

Today we saw Trump unwilling or unable to grasp this invasion, especially when he had to be reminded of when it started. For Ukraine it's not just about just minerals or money. Could Zelensky have stayed calmer? Probably, but he wears this war, it's part of his political being.

Liverpool, Walthamstow, Oxford, Bristol - beautiful scenes from up and down the country of communities coming together in the face of hatred this evening. THIS is who we are, THIS is what we should be striving for.

🚨 NEW: The UK has suspended arms export licences to Israel [@JewishChron]
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The article only refers to an alleged suspension in granting new license applications, there are still numerous existing licenses for companies to export arms to Israel: middleeasteye.net/news/uk-govern… In the quoted article, the Department of Business and Trade deny making any decision to suspend licenses.

A sneering Ed Balls (husband of Home Sec) and panel of white people take umbrage at Zarah Sultana asking govt to call riots across country racist/Islamophobic. Look at them laughing at her. @GMB just allowed presenters to belittle a Muslim MP on air. xitter.cf/SaulStaniforth/status/…

This is unacceptable & deeply uncomfortable viewing. An entire white panel questioning a brown woman like a suspect. Ed Balls and Kate have left their homes this morning with no fear. Zarah and every other brown/black person left knowing they are a target

Here’s just a few examples of Daily Mail headlines that have fanned the flames of hate and normalised Islamophobic and anti-migrant rhetoric #GMB

What will it take for political leaders to explicitly call out the Islamophobic and racist nature of the violence we are witnessing across the country?

When Gary Lineker was unjustifiably suspended by BBC his co-hosts Ian Wright & Alan Shearer’s solidarity was loud & visible. He was re-instated. Am I the only who hasn’t heard a peep from Sangita Myska’s @LBC colleagues about her unjustified removal? The Silence Is Deafening.

Really powerful piece on the @BBCr4today on the story of 7 year old Sara who was crushed to death whilst trying to cross the Channel and the story of her heartbroken father who’s overcome with grief and rage. 💔

Those working in/on the region should understand what the current state of the "peace plan" is. Much of Israel's far right govt doesn't recognize Palestinian identity let alone the idea of a "Palestine". It's either faux outrage or a sad indictment of their knowledge
