12 former US officials including @AnnelleSheline resigned over American complicity in Israel's genocide in gaza. They now call on US Presidential candidates to pledge not to hire officials involved in supporting this policy. A worthy cause.

L'ex-patron du MI6, Alex Younger 🇬🇧, admet que l'Occident a provoqué la Russie et a perdu. Selon lui, l'Occident s'est marginalisé en se concentrant sur la confrontation militaire via l'OTAN, négligeant les domaines économique et technologique. La Russie en a bien profité pour devenir la première puissance technologique militaire. J'adore les personnalités singulières, honnêtes, lucides et courageuses du monde anglo-saxon !!!

The art of wasting taxpayer money on a losing war that is none of your concern...
Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine poses a serious threat to UK prosperity and security. That's why this Budget is providing over £10bn in additional support to Ukraine.

Imagine worshipping an economic system where corporations and billionaires use, exploit, and then discard workers to rake in billions of dollars for themselves. This is capitalism and it is the biggest scam on planet earth bar none!
Microsoft just made $133.7 BILLION in net income last year. Today they announced they are getting rid of 60,000 workers. Fuck these companies man.

Iran is dictating terms, and those terms remain unchanged for six months now. Iran is dictating terms because that is what happens in the real world when you win a big war. Trump and CENTCOM can spin tales of #TheImaginaryWar all they want, but Iran's terms are writ in stone.
According to Reuters, citing a senior Iranian official, Qatari-presented proposals have been deemed as unacceptable by decision-makers within Iran. Per the report, the proposal, which would be implemented over a 7-day timeframe, would include a tiered process where both sides build confidence by implementing negotiated provisions. However, Iran has deemed such a proposal as “unacceptable ideas and not an offer,” with the current Iranian position of not giving any concessions until sanctions are lifted and the blockade ended remaining unchanged.

Britain’s backing for the war in Ukraine and Trump’s illegal war on Iran are driving the rocketing cost of living at home. Instead of giving billions more to war and Ukraine, Healey could have gone much further than offering ‘breathing space’ for people at home.

The ratio on this….
Today we’re announcing a new £10bn package of support for Ukraine. This funding will help Ukraine meet its immediate needs, support economic resilience, and help defend its sovereignty from Russia’s illegal invasion. We will stand with Ukraine for as long as it takes.

Journalists should be able to question politicians without being smeared and libelled like this. Defenders of the Israeli government have run out of rational arguments to support it. Please help protect independent journalism and support us here: 👉 declassifieduk.org/join pic.x.com/DNMYxk9CGG

BREAKING: Hegseth fires the Pentagon's chief planner, Army Lt. Gen. Brett Sylvia, from the Joint Chiefs of Staff, per The Atlantic. Defense officials said the main reason for the firing was that he clashed repeatedly with Elbridge Colby, the Pentagon's top civilian for policy, causing Hegseth to lose confidence in Sylvia. Colby is the official who said in August the US is reviewing the strategy for the specific and potential use of nuclear weapons. He is at least the 5th general pushed out this year, each holding a key position.

I worked in the NHS for 14 years. Now doctors like me who speak about Gaza are being reported to the GMC, written up in the press, and left fighting for our careers. This is my experience, and why I won't be silenced. Please watch, share, and contact your MP. @georgegalloway @abierkhatib @SangitaMyska @ShaykhSulaiman @HussainShafiei @Bushra1Shaikh @FranceskAlbs @TheBMA @Partisangirl @mehdirhasan @caitoz @hasanthehun @AyoubKhanMP @jeremycorbyn @KNEECAPCEOL @guychristensen_ @AJEnglish @Lowkey0nline @guardian @TomLondon6 @Tracking_Power
