This is incredibly grim.

I did this scheme in 2016 - it's a great opportunity for a young journalist who wants to pursue foreign reporting.

This is a fascinating, gripping and nuanced piece about, among other things, the complexities of prosecuting county lines cases and the blurred lines between victim and perpetrator theguardian.com/law/ng-interac…

I never thought I will have to do this. But I am left with no choice. I need to save my surviving two sisters and their children. I lost too many family members, and I don’t want to lose more. Please donate or share. gofundme.com/f/bring-relief…
Yes rules are important. But anyone slinging around lazy “welfare cheats” rhetoric needs to read this story about where it can lead A good parent broken, and the state shelling out not less, but more

Please sign/share - petition calling on the UK govt to establish a Gaza family reunion scheme. Like the one for Ukraine. The call comes from a collective of Palestinians from Gaza and others. They'd like 100,000 signatures by 18 April so don't be shy! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6485…
This part jumped out to me. A rare and honest admission from a (former) U.S. official on how folks in Washington - especially Biden - empathize with Israelis in a way they simply don’t (can’t?) with Palestinians. Explains much of our current predicament.

📣Twitter fam, I NEED YOUR HELP! #journorequest I'm looking for a former Ukrainian soldier who now lives in the UK after sustaining injuries (meaning he/she can no longer fight) & a Ukrainian war refugee who has started a successful business in the UK.
According to UNICEF, tens of thousands of Palestinians starving in northern Gaza could receive life-saving food and other aid within “10 minutes” - if Israel allowed access through an existing crossing point that is currently closed ⤵️

Such an interesting read by @samirashackle in @prospect_uk magazine. Looks at homelessness in UK but mentions GiveDirectly, non-profit allowing donors to send money straight to “world’s poorest households” in countries like Uganda & Bangladesh. prospectmagazine.co.uk/society/housin…
So weird that yesterday when the sun was out life was worth living and now it is raining I couldn’t care less
Yes rules are important. But anyone slinging around lazy “welfare cheats” rhetoric needs to read this story about where it can lead A good parent broken, and the state shelling out not less, but more

[in longform magazine ideas meeting] "Ok, how about – what if we sent the earthquake on a CRUISE ship?"
Recently I’ve seen people with huge followings here state that reasonable criticism of Israel is ‘Jew hatred’ and ‘blood libel’. It really, really isn’t antisemitic to object to Israel starving people and massacring children and murdering aid workers.
It’s like if Irish playwrights kept trying their hand at writing a play about two guys standing around on a country road waiting for a third guy who never arrives. That’s not how you go about being influenced!
Why are you allowing this @RishiSunak @David_Cameron and @grantshapps ? She is not in the Government. Has she got civil servants with her? Minutes of meeting? Mandate? Instructions? @FCDOGovUK @DefenceHQ
Today I met with senior military & political figures in Israel to discuss the war in Gaza & the tragic strike on the aid convoy. My thoughts & prayers go out to the family & friends of those killed. This was a terrible mistake for which Israel has rightly apologised.
After 3.5 years working as a science correspondent for The Guardian, I am stepping down to focus on other projects including book & feature writing & radio. It has been a rollercoaster of laughter, stress, sorrow & fun, & I have ticked a major career ambition off my list... 🧵
Really excited to have a chat with a guy called Isaac at the New Yorker about some stuff I did a few years ago. He said it’d be a fairly relaxed and informal call
Calling for the Israeli govt to investigate is farcical and clinging on to the notion, long eroded, that it still abides by any standards- it has gone rogue and is making clowns of these political leaders.
Reports of the death of British nationals – among others from World Central Kitchen – in an Israeli strike on Gaza are horrifying. Our thoughts are with the families of all of those killed.
I campaigned for Labour in the last two elections. Door knocking, volunteering in head office, etc. This video and Keir's LBC interview is the reason I can't vote for the party any more. Incredibly ashamed of what they've become.
Shadow minister Pat McFadden is clear - Israel is an ally, Labour aren't calling for a ban on arms sales to them, & if Labour win the next election they'll continue selling arms to them.
