This is Sam Fahd Abu Haikal. A 7-month-old Palestinian baby killed by Israel. If this were an Israeli baby or a Western baby, his face would be splashed across front pages. Western leaders would condemn the perpetrator's evil. Here? Silence.
The Israeli army shot dead a 7-month-old Palestinian baby in the West Bank. It was in broad daylight. The father says: "I stopped as I was instructed to, and then they simply shot at the car." Israel routinely kills babies - and the West is silent.

"Nobody told me". The question is, why didn't the prime minister ask?
.@HackneyAbbott: "Its one thing to say, as he insists on saying, nobody told me, nobody told me anything, nobody told me. The question is, why didn't the prime minister ask" Spot on.

There are millions or even billions of people in this world who fundamentally do not understand that children everywhere are the same. This precious child, the tens of thousands dead in Gaza—people don’t connect them to the idea of their own child being violently killed.

Claiming Gaza is a 'sectarian' issue is both blatantly racist & blind to why we all care about Gaza. As new Green MP Hannah Spencer said last night 'Whether its on our doorsteps or across the world, if somebody is being oppressed or suffering an injustice, I will always speak up'

Classic Tory ideology. If you’re rich, you can study arts, media, literature whatever you like. If you’re working class? Good luck. That’s not “choice”. That’s privilege. A two tier education system dressed up as reform. Working class kids in West Derby & beyond deserve the same freedom to create, think and dream.
“We’re going to stop the government funding dead end university courses” Shadow education secretary Laura Trott says her party would stop funding courses that “don’t deliver for young people” citing some creative arts courses as an example #BBCLauraK bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001bv0…

I asked actor Neil Patrick Harris about political art at #Berlinale today. He didn't want to engage and said: "I'm always interested in doing things that are apolitical".
