Shame on my university, @mcgillu , for trying to shut down a campus event featuring this brilliant, courageous woman, @FranceskAlbs , the @UN Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories. 1/

Some folks are wilding out about these Ta-Nehisi interviews — the Ezra one is very good and they arrive at a really compelling place, the Trevor one is quite revelatory about things Coates doesn’t get to talk about often, you should stop listening to the clips and just find them.

How can you believe in the involuntary institutionalization of unhoused people, when thousands of people are voluntarily waiting 8-10 years for housing if ever?

The underlying issue that needs more discussion is whether life or death policy decisions should be based on political ideology or whether we agree that health services should be evidence based, and trying to deliver the best outcomes for the population in the fairest way.

“People are entitled to their opinions” gives space for this type of hate. It’s all interconnected and it has real, harmful consequences. #ldnont
There was an arson attack on a family home in #ldnont after they had their Palestine and #OurLondonFamily lawn signs repeastedly vandalized, in case you were wondering how the fight against Islamophobia was going.

The June6th terrorist was motivated by racist representations of Muslims in uk media. Since Oct7th NCCM reports a 1000% increase in islamophobic hate crimes. We cannot pretend that the way we are treated and depicted elsewhere has no impact on the violence we face here.
The images of the beheaded children are seared in my brain. We have had six months of this genocide and Netanyahu is convinced that no state will stop him. What world do we live in? #rafahmassacre

My city councillor, @StevensonLDN, could take some notes here. 👇

ProPublica distributed notecards to homeless people in Albuquerque and asked them about objects they had lost when their encampments were hauled away. Here's what they said. propublica.org/article/albuq… @nicolesantacruz

All we wish to say now is the 7 who voted no are those who have never reached out to ask ?s and learn. The 7 who voted yes have all done so. Ask the nos who will now support the 250+ visits a week we support? Showers? Laundry? What of those who sleep here? What is the “plan?”

“Following nearly 6 months of unrelenting Israeli assault on occupied #Gaza, it is my solemn duty to report on the worst of what humanity is capable of & to present my findings: 'the Anatomy of a Genocide'.”

Diversion of #SaferSupply drugs is a trivial issue distracting us from the real challenge: Reducing toxic drug deaths, by @picardonhealth via @GlobeDebate #HarmReduction #ToxicDrugCrisis theglobeandmail.com/opinion/…

And p.s. — The Globe was able to tell this story because the company did business in Newfoundland which "has the most open freedom of information system in the country." This type of information is hidden/nearly impossible to get elsewhere. Get angry about that #SecretCanada
In another example, the company invoiced government $1.6-million in meal allowances for nurses, even though the company’s contracts with nurses required them to pay for their own food. The Globe found no evidence of this money being distributed to nurses. theglobeandmail.com/canada/a…

If the city of London is committed to reducing crime and homelessness, it needs to invest significantly in the budget lines that prevent crime and support those struggling financially. Invest in para/conventional transit, libraries, and the environment
