The moral arc of the universe is long but it bends towards Jeremy Clarkson spending decades denying global warming only to sink his fortune into a farm just as global warming really starts to kick in

Not only will Israel not allow medical supplies into Gaza, it will also bomb the warehouses where what little medical supplies still exist.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza reported that Israeli occupation forces killed 152 Palestinians in July, the highest monthly death toll recorded this year despite the announced ceasefire.
The victims included 21 children, 14 women and four elderly people.

They started off arresting members of an organisation calling for an end to murder. After banning the organisation, they arrested those objecting to the ban. Now they're arresting those objecting to the arrests.

This level of violence against Muslims is completely unacceptable.
Where are the strong condemnations, the emergency meetings, the taskforces to tackle it?

🚨 Roy Keane on Nico Williams disallowed goal against Argentina:
“I’ve just seen the biggest robbery of this World Cup. The ball comes into the box, nobody touches anybody, everyone goes up for it, then one Argentina player starts shouting. The next thing you know, two defenders are on the floor appealing,
Nico Williams has scored, and Emiliano Martinez … who wasn’t even touched… is somehow lying there as well asking for a foul.
The referee blows immediately. No VAR review. No replay. No check to see if there was actually any contact. Just disallowed. Apparently if enough Argentina players fall over at the same time, that’s now considered conclusive evidence.
If we’re being honest, Paredes shouldn’t even still be on the pitch after some of the tackles he’s made today. Yet somehow the only thing the referee managed to spot instantly was an invisible foul.”
While Piers Morgan is not mentioned by name in this excellent article, his shadow looms bullyingly throughout, not least in the knockout two sentence combination: “The stupidity is not felt from the inside as stupidity. It presents itself as judgement”
Continuity Mandelson Faction trying to cover its tracks
Isn't this strange... Labour Together deleted this post from X showing an LT event at 2023 Labour conference, addressed by Peter Mandelson, @jreynoldsMP and hosted by Josh Simons. This screengrab was taken two weeks ago, so only deleted since then. Would be a shame if it was shared, widely, so it never disappears.
