This is the reddest of red flags. So many young people are flocking to the Greens because the other parties offer neoliberalism (or fascism) and they've been screwed over by neoliberalism their whole lives. Othering them by calling them the "hard left" is disgusting.

This is the Jabalia refugee camp in the north of Gaza 🇵🇸 today
An apocalypse
No reconstruction whatsoever
Are we just to turn a blind eye to genocide
Ban all 🇬🇧 military support for 🇮🇱
Ban all 🇬🇧 trade with 🇮🇱
Ban 🇮🇱 money from 🇬🇧 politics

In October, a senior Labour backbencher told The Observer that a “majority” of the party’s MPs supported a change in the group’s designation ...
An editorial published jointly by the Jewish News and the Jewish Chronicle before the supreme court hearing accused Palestine Action of “targeting… the Jewish community”.
In response, hundreds of prominent Jewish voices, including Holocaust survivors and their families, wrote an open letter – seen by The Observer pre-publication – in support of the group.
“We… reject any implication that Palestine Action was antisemitic or was directing its activities at Jewish people or businesses because they were Jewish,” they wrote. “There are a growing number of Jewish people speaking up and demonstrating for an end to the illegal occupation, the genocide in Gaza, the escalating violence in the West Bank and for the right to Palestinian self-determination. These voices are rarely represented in legacy media.”

Absolutely devastated for the husband and family of our golden girl, Ciara Mageean. A hero, an athlete, a powerhouse, a huge inspiration and someone who was a incredible ambassador for the island of Ireland. Rest in power.

I never cease to be disappointed by people who fail to understand the power of propaganda and the manufacturing of consent.
Nobody - certainly not the establishment and their media - gave a rat's behind about the Green Party until it became a visible force for change under Zack's leadership. Then the weight of the mainstream billionaire-owned media was rained down on him personally, and the party as a whole. Gorton and Denton was the alarm bell that set the establishment scurrying.
There are two things you can do at this juncture, Rupert:
1) Give in to the pressure, throw in the towel, and hanker after the days of being that quaint little party that everyone tolerated because it would never have any power, and was no threat to anyone or anything; or
2) Fight back.
You choose.
But if you choose the former, please have the decency to take a step back, and let those of us who want to do the latter get on with the job of creating a safe planet for everyone.
Thank you.

I've formally complained about GnasherJew's page on me. It publishes my ethnicity, GMC number and photo, and misquotes me.
It's hosted by @FlokiNETehf, funded via @Donorbox @stripe @PayPalUK, and mails via @MailerLite @kit.
Your policies ban doxxing. Enforce them. @ICOnews

"La Mano". Monument in Stockholm. It reads: "Of the 500 Swedes who during 1936-38 fought for Spain’s democracy, a third fell. They gave their lives at: Madrid, Jarama, Guadalajara, Brunete, Teruel, Aragon, Ebro.
Wanderers stop. Remember them with pride" Many thanks to @AfcKirre

I’m an atheist but I cry to heaven that this stops right now , that every murdering blood thirsty sadist is caught and made to pay the price for what they’ve done because our own Government won’t . Keep fighting for Gaza, step up the action against the occupation. The enemy is at home.

I am Jewish
Listen to this man BELOW. He leads a very powerful Israel Lobby group in the US
The idea that "God promised us Jews the land of Israel thousands of years ago", including the right to drive out those already living there and persecute them and kill them, is ABSOLUTE NONSENSE

I haven't read this (paywall), but Hadley Freeman is one of the most strident of the 'Labour antisemitism crisis' liars, too much even for Guardian, hence her move to the Times.
The idea BBC is hostile to Jews is, frankly, insane.

He needs a formal warning for undermining the party and leader.
If there is not robust action then nothing will have been learnt from “the Corbyn years”.
If @AdrianRamsay feels he has a vision for @TheGreenParty that would be more compelling than Zack’s then challenge him.
@AdrianRamsay warns Greens at a 'crossroads', says there is a risk under @ZackPolanski party 'digs in' with 'small groups of people on the hard left' going round trying to influence how parties are run -
He is not calling for Polanski to go, but clearly calling on him to act after controversial conference motion -
Really worth listening to Ramsay, who has been in the party since 1998, make his arguments -
