You forgot to mention you’re still selling arms to Israel, making you complicit in the genocide of Palestinians.
Today marked one month since I became Prime Minister.
Cutting tax on electricity bills. Capping bus fares at £2 in England. Making subscriptions easier to cancel. Cracking down on fake discounts. Giving 14-year-olds early access to technical education. Opening 159 new mental health centres. Investing to get all rough sleepers off the street this winter. Supporting farmers affected by the drought. Cutting business rates for pubs, clubs, and music venues. Shutting down 13 more asylum hotels. Giving mayors a share of income tax. Extending the 16-17 Saver Railcard. Bringing buses in the West Midlands under public control. Fast-tracking new homes near train stations. Cleaning up illegal waste dumps. Giving communities and councils more power over what opens on their high street. Opening No10 North. Giving disabled people 24/7 free bus travel. Delivering the biggest transfer of power, funding and responsibility from Westminster in a generation.
It's a start, but I’m not complacent. I know that people need more and I promise that I will do everything I can to make yours and your family’s lives better. We're doing things differently to give people more breathing space and bring back hope.
Here’s to the next month.

Gazze hastanelerinde gönüllü olarak görev yapan Japon hemşire, Japonya'ya döndükten sonra basın toplantısı yaptı:
"Gazze halkı neyi yanlış yaptı? Hayatın ağırlığı herkese eşit değil mi? Bu dünya bir türlü adil olamadı.
Bütün dünya onlara saldırıyor, birey olarak hiçbir hakları yok… Hem topraklarını işgal ediyorsunuz hem de onları öldürüyorsunuz.
Belki bu sözler bile dünyaya ulaşmayacak, hatta görmezden gelinecek… Filistin halkı varoluş mücadelesi veriyor…
Gazze halkının sesini dünyaya duyurmaya çalışacağım…”

BREAKING: Israel has dropped a new type of bomb in Gaza.
Palestinians claim it’s a “mini nuke,” but analysis suggests it is likely a thermobaric (vacuum) weapon.
Thermobaric bombs detonate by dispersing a fuel–air mixture, producing a high-pressure shockwave and intense heat. This can collapse structures and cause blast effects similar to a nuclear detonation in terms of overpressure, but it is not a nuclear weapon.

#Gaza: Doctors Without Borders staff have not been spared from the violence.
Our colleagues have been shot in their tents, lost family members and fled their homes: link
This is not a ceasefire.

Israel flattened Beirut in 1982.
No Hamas. No Hezbollah. No October 7 to point to then.
Just 17,000 dead Lebanese and Palestinian civilians.
Even US president then Ronald Reagan, who armed Israel, called Begin furious after seeing a photo of a 7-month-old baby with its arms blown off and said “It is a holocaust”.
They killed so many innocent people that the survivors had no choice but to pick up weapons.
Then Israel had the audacity to keep using “Self-Defense” excuse every decade.
Israel didn’t stumble into endless war. Israel built it. Brick by brick.
Own it.

Hussein Saleh lost 8 members of his family in an Israeli strike on their home, including his pregnant wife.
He found the head of his young daughter amid the rubble. “When I picked up her head, everything changed. Something in my heart broke and went silent.”
It is one of the most heartbreaking stories @NadaOHomsi and I have worked on during the war.
Nothing could justify such a horrific attack.

Sarah Palin: “You’re a liar”
Me: “I know facts aren’t your strong point.”
Palin: “You’re an obnoxious ass.”
Me: “I’m obnoxious? You’re a racist.”
I brought receipts for my clash with Sarah Palin on Piers Morgan’s show. Watch to the end. 🤷🏽♂️👇🏽

"I just (wish I could) hear some news that they found him or found something of his belongings or something with his scent."
Fourteen-year-old Asnam Hasan Sobh has been searching for her father under the rubble for more than two days, hoping to find him. Her father, Hasan Ramadan Sobh, is an employee of Doctors Without Borders.

Instead of expressing "concern" about the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza, isn't it time we stopped supplying Israel with the weapons that have caused the catastrophe in the first place?

Israel is wiping out border village after border village in South Lebanon.
Centuries-old villages.
When ISIS did this in Syria and Iraq, the whole world went crazy.
But when Israel systematically does the exact same thing in Palestine and Lebanon, nobody bats an eyelash.

In the name of the long-standing ties that unite France and Lebanon, we have chosen to do our duty to support the Lebanese people. They need massive aid from the international community.

A mother from #Jabalia says:
“They took all the children from their mothers and put them inside what resembled a pit or a hole. The tank came to circle around them repeatedly until their bones cracked under the pressure of dust and sand, amidst the screams of children and the wailing of mothers.
“After that, the soldiers came and started throwing the children towards the mothers, and whoever caught a child was ordered to carry him and move away quickly, with no guarantee that the child would be their own.
“Many mothers carried children who were not their own, and were forced to leave with them, leaving their own children in the hands of other mothers. This marked the beginning of a new chapter of suffering, with mothers searching for their children in the arms of other women, trying to calm the children they held until they found their real mothers.“

Israeli occupation forces have just bombed an entire block consisting of 13 houses in northern Gaza. Hundreds are injured, and no ambulances or paramedics will be able to reach them. Operations were halted yesterday due to the fuel blockade, and Israeli forces have kidnapped and killed many of the paramedics.
