51% of Jewish teachers - many of them NEU members - experienced antisemitism in school in the past year. Fixing this starts with defining the problem. IHRA spotlights the insidious and often subtle nature of antisemitism. It doesn't stifle criticism of the government of Israel.

The Prime Minister has made fixing social care one of his top priorities. If we get the detail right and bring the public with us, it'll be a legacy we can all be proud of. 🎥 On Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg.

We’ve been working closely with the Government to make Stratford International station truly ‘international’ for the first time – opening up jobs, investment and tourism. It’s time to write the next chapter in Stratford’s remarkable success story. standard.co.uk/news/london/s…

Fmr Pres. @BillClinton: "I'm tired of this constant us vs. them...I'm tired of treating our allies like they're dirt...I'm tired of people denigrating Muslims for being Muslims."

נתניהו הוא מנהיג חולה וחלש, שנאחז בשלטון בכוח ומוכן לסכן את ביטחון ישראל כדי להציל את עצמו. אין לו שום לגיטימציה לגרור את ישראל למערכה צבאית נוספת משיקולים פוליטיים ואישיים, ערב בחירות. חיי חיילינו ואזרחינו אינם כלי משחק במאבק ההישרדות שלו. אני קורא לרמטכ״ל ולראשי מערכת הביטחון: האחריות שלכם היא אך ורק לביטחון ישראל. חובתכם לעמוד כחומה בצורה מול כל ניסיון לנצל את צה״ל למטרות פוליטיות. לבלום כל מהלך צבאי שנועד לשרת אינטרסים אישיים בכסות של צורכי ביטחון. המערכה על ביטחון ישראל תהיה ב-27.10 - אזרחי ישראל נקראים לקלפי להציל את ישראל מממשלת הטבח וההשתמטות המסוכנת. עלינו אפשר לסמוך שמיד אחרי שנחליף אותם - נחזיר את הביטחון והשפיות לישראל.

Maybe you saw Trump's so desperate he's begging Putin for diesel. But listen to this: At the very same time, the White House is brokering the sale of billions in Russian energy assets to people who fund the Trump family and the Trump campaign.

This is deeply disappointing, if not hugely surprising. Lewisham Shopping Centre is in dire need of investment. And we desperately need new homes.
Landsec has pulled out of its £1.5bn investment in Lewisham shopping centre, citing Mayor @LiamShrivastava's Green administration's lack of support. 300+ affordable homes, jobs, a park and a music venue: gone. Our Group Leader @Ese_Journo has written to the Mayor 👇

Trafford Green Party: all 7 councillors signed this letter, led by group leader, Cllr Geraldine Coggins (Seen in London supporting Polanski’s bid to become an MP) Labour controls the council anyway but this seems significant from the whole Green group trafford.greenparty.org.uk/c…

1/ Yesterday, @IPPR made a big call. We put out a new report arguing that the UK should seek to join the EU. We didn’t make this call lightly. We know it will be controversial. We know many are jaded with this debate. But it’s the right thing to do. Here’s why 🧵

Good, sensible changes. A number of constituents contacted me about unfair parking fines and I’ve campaigned for action so I am pleased to see this announcement.
🚨 NEW: Andy Burnham has announced changes to car parking fines - Drivers will have a 5-minute grace period to decide whether to park and 10 minutes to leave after a parking session ends - A £20 maximum charge on appeal for minor mistakes, such as entering the wrong number plate or not displaying a permit - Charges will also be cancelled on appeal for breakdowns, medical emergencies or broken ticket machines - The £100 cap on charges will remain - The rules will come into force as soon as possible and operators that break them will lose access to DVLA data

The Canary will be closed for the foreseeable future. As of today (Monday 19 October), the Canary will be closed indefinitely. After multiple attacks this year, from Lloyds debanking us to former employees spreading malicious lies on social media, the situation has become unsustainable, both financially and operationally. After 11 years, we take this action with deep sadness and regret. The extent of the lies, defamation, and harassment by ex-staff - coupled with the constant attacks by the state and those who’d see us destroyed - has become too much. However, it is not over. This week, we will publish what really happened at the Canary and push back against the vicious campaign against our team and us. We may be down, but we’re not out yet.

Sorry Sharron were you expecting he invades Paris instead?
As Paris burns our prime minister has stopped people playing loud music on buses & trains.
