An IDF statement issued yesterday stated a 14 year old boy was shot dead in the West Bank on Monday, because he planned to throw stones at them. Not threw stones, PLANNED, to throw stones.
This is Zionism.

On the upside, the £36bn the Tories plan to take away from the sick and disabled will just about cover the £37bn they gave Dido Harding to run the Test and Trace XL spreadsheet

"We were driving through Colorado [and] we had the radio on and eight of the Top Ten songs were Beatles songs. In Colorado! 'I Want to Hold Your Hand,' all those early ones.
"They were doing things nobody was doing. Their chords were outrageous, just outrageous, and their harmonies made it all valid . . . but I kept it to myself that I really dug them. Everybody else thought they were for the teenyboppers, that they were gonna pass right away. But it was obvious to me that they had staying power. I knew they were pointing the direction where music had to go.
"In my head, the Beatles were it. It seemed to me a definite line was being drawn. This was something that never happened before . . .
"They were fantastic singers. To this day, it's hard to find a singer better than Lennon was, or than McCartney was and still is. I'm in awe of McCartney. He's about the only one that I'm in awe of. He can do it all. And he's never let up. He's got the gift for melody, he's got the gift for rhythm, he can play any instrument. He can scream and shout as good as anyone, and he can sing a ballad as good as anyone. And his melodies are effortless, that's what you have to be in awe of . . . he's just so damn effortless. I just wish he'd quit [laughs]. Everything that comes out of his mouth is just framed in melody.
"As for Lennon . . . John has taken poetics pretty far in popular music. A lot of his work is overlooked, but if you examine it, you’ll find key expressions that have never been said before to push across his point of view. Things that are symbolic of some inner reality and probably will never be said again.
"America should put statues up to the Beatles. They helped give this country’s pride back to it. I think they're the best."

Instead of blaming the rich for the overpriced coffee and poor working conditions, you must blame a demographic that has no correlation with either.
You are expected to do this because the Tories sincerely believe you are stupid.

There can be fewer acts of dehumanisation as low as mocking cold wet children in flood water because they are Palestinian

This is precisely the problem.
It’s why we have major salary compression at the just above minimum wage level
Everyone thinks because you earn a decent wage you cant work for better working conditions
If we don’t; everything just gets eternally more shit year on year.

Tube drivers have got the right mindset. They get what they want then 12 months later they do it again. Rinse and repeat.
One of the only set of workers who have a back bone 😅

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.

For last 24 hours I’ve seen footage of horrific scenes from Gaza, just absolute human misery. Yet..it’s not there on any news outlet’s home pages, not discussed on our witless political shows. We’re just going to ignore it? Is that the plan?

Former Asda driver here. That’s the ambient compartment and having it open is doing no harm. The freezer & chiller compartments are closed and are insulated. They will stay cold enough while they’re closed and the engine isn’t running. Don’t be a prick.

🚨 CATASTROPHIC SCENES IN GAZA RIGHT NOW.
Heavy rainfall is flooding displaced Palestinians’ tents, leaving families exposed to the harsh winter with no alternative shelter.
This is their fourth winter since Israel destroyed their homes and continues to block essential materials from entering Gaza.
