At a Tel Aviv train station, reserve soldiers refusing service are posting signs and handing out flyers, urging others to sign their refusal letter in a bold act of resistance. โœŠ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

Wow, the numbers moving to the other place are stunning. Iโ€™ve pretty much rebuilt my whole network there. Tipping point has been reached for UK twitter. See you on the other side! (I just came back to post this)

Iโ€™m making the move to Bluesky. Continuing to post and engage here would make me complicit in funding Muskโ€™s attempt to dismantle democracy. See you over there! bsky.app/profile/edturnham.bโ€ฆ

The heavy machinery unit of Givati Brigade did a compilation of homes they've destroyed in Jabalia, and added a joyous music in the background, that's supposed to make it funny or something. Genocide is a game to them.

"Children are being denied medical care that is a basic human right. And those who barely survive the ruthless bombardments are then condemned to die from their injuries. It is a problem that is being completely disregarded." - @1james_elder of @UNICEF on #Gaza

Last night, the Israeli Security Forces (ISF) shot in the chest and killed an 11-year-old Palestinian boy throwing stones at armoured vehicles in #Nablus despite posing no realistic threat. On 20 Oct, in #Hebron, ISF shot in the head a 17-year-old boy, now in critical condition. Another 11-year-old boy was critically injured after ISF shot him in the head on 17 Oct in Al-Arroub camp. In the past year alone, ISF killed 165 Palestinian children in the West Bank, incl. EJ, 36 in airstrikes and 129 shot with live ammunition, most in the head or upper body.

What started with valid concerns about abuse of PA role has become a moral panic about any non-doctor HCP managing patients autonomously. Thousands of MH patients are safely managed in the community by non-doctors every day. ANPs safely manage lots of minor injuries in A&E.

Again, what could possibly go wrong?

Is there anyone out there who really thinks that a patient in A&E with suicidal thoughts is better off seeing an F2 who wants to be a surgeon, rather than a senior MH nurse/OT? I would have been hopeless at that stage of my career.

The NYT just published a piece on how Israeli army routinely and systematically uses Palestinians as human shields in Gaza. Palestinians were officially referred to as insects โ€” โ€œwaspsโ€ or โ€œmosquitos.โ€ This is a war crime that has not been documented since Vietnam.

I very much hope @wesstreeting will ensure that NHS employers receive an increase in ยฃ to cancel out this increased cost. Otherwise this will be the last straw for many GP partners. @doctor_katie theguardian.com/politics/202โ€ฆ

Video reconstruction of how Israeli troops killed a young Palestinian boy in Gaza for no reason, then killed six of his family members as they returned from a cemetery to bury him, holding a white flag. Their remains were bulldozed into a pile of garbage. trib.al/9wf8crj

For how much longer will democratic governments be passive while Musk and Zuckerberg allow the unchecked spread of disinformation on their networks, tearing our societies apart?
Sunrise in Southport. A scene of devastation surrounding the mosque on St Lukeโ€™s Road after an angry mob attacked police last night. Bricks, bottles, fireworks sit alongside bits of a burnt out police vehicle - metal melted in the heat. @GMB

Israeli sources are now confirming the horrific CNN and New York Times reports of the conditions in Sde Taiman. They include electric shocks, amputations due to bad conditions, severe beatings, , surgery without anesthesia, playing loud music until inmates ears bleed, deaths due to bad sanitary conditions, systematic torture and sexual abuse. Sources in the Israeli justice department are saying the evidence is so clear and the cases so severe, it will be an open and shut case for international courts. This is a horror that will never be forgotten. A permanent stain on the state of Israel.
