The law that the Israeli parliament has approved on Monday to expel UNRWA has immediately translated into carte blanche for the military destruction of its buildings and activities also in the West Bank. The Israeli military is bulldozing the UN agency for Palestinian refugees.
Using bulldozers, Israeli Forces severely damaged today (Thursday) the @UNRWA office in the Nur Shams Camp, north of the #WestBank.
The office can no longer be used.
It was the hub to deliver basic services to more than 14,000 Palestine Refugees in the camp, including learning for children, health, sanitation & social protection.
During the Israeli military operation, roads, water + electricity networks were also destroyed in the camp.
Once again, United Nations facilities are being routinely disregarded while they must be protected at all times, including in times of conflict.

“Labour has pledged to ban junk food and vape advertising to children; to prohibit the sale of high-caffeine energy drinks to under-16s; and to empower councils to block the opening of new fast food outlets near schools.”

Gaza is on the brink of a devastating polio outbreak, another deadly threat to people already facing dire sanitary conditions.
Humanitarian workers must be able to work safely and carry out a vaccination campaign as quickly as possible.
The UK and @swiss_un have called for the Security Council to meet on the humanitarian situation in Gaza tomorrow at 3pm.
The UN has warned aid operations and staff in Gaza are at risk, at a time when a vaccine campaign is urgently needed to stop a polio outbreak.
Quite enjoyed #IrvingWelshsCrime but not a great advertisement for the #TalkingTherapies

A joint statement on Bystander Bleeding Control for London.
People can lose a lot of blood, very quickly from bleeding wounds. Pressing directly on a wound with a piece of material until help arrives can make all the difference.
We encourage all Londoners to get confident in delivering basic first aid to bleeding wounds.

The Sturmabteilung known as “SA” literally "Storm Division" or “Storm Troopers”, was the original paramilitary wing of the Nazi Party.
They were basically Civilian militia. In 1930s Germany before Hitler came to power, the SA's job was to impersonate angry citizens and intimidate and attack Jews in the street.
That's what we've seen on the streets of England over the past few days: a civilian militia, designed to look like angry, local citizens who've had enough, but in reality, they are sent into the area from elsewhere.
These are orchestrated demonstrations, those involved are acting under orders, to be violent, and to attack Muslim targets and the police. But as the article below states “large numbers of people are engaging in activity online but there’s no membership structure or badge - there are not even formalised leaders, but directed by social media influencers. It’s like a school of fish rather than traditional organisation.”
We are expected to believe spontaneous protests by concerned local citizens sprung up simultaneously in several cities at once. The truth is, these are coordinated events. Those involved are ‘foot soldiers’. Whether they know it or not.
The Southport suspect is now believed to be a Christian. This information is irrlevent. The attack on Islam has begun. And those involved are world-wide. This is why we see so many social media posts spreading false information about what is happening in England from foreign bot accounts and they’re all pushing the same common narrative: Get the Muslims. Get the immigrants. Everything is their fault.
It’s an old tactic. But the question is: who is laying the eggs?

If you ask : what is the value of the humanities? I would say that it teaches you to read with acuity, to analyse wild claims, to argue responsibly to questions to which there are no right answers. Do we need the humanities? Let’s hear it for yes!!!

Two years ago, our report with @NHSConfed revealed how investing in health has a clear economic return🔗 carnallfarrar.com/the-influe…
This week @wesstreeting revealed his plans to turn the Department of Health into an 'economic growth department'. Watch this space... 🏥
These low pollution vehicles sound great. Assuming they work, would be fantastic to see wider scale roll out, maybe around hospitals such as @NHSBartsHealth new #WhippsCrossHospital
