Can we please not forget that Netanyahu historically supported & empowered Hamas in order to sabotage any possibility of a two-state solution & peace. Netanyahu reportedly said in 2019- “Those who want to thwart the possibility of a Palestinian state should support the strengthening of Hamas and the transfer of money to Hamas.” Former Israeli PM Ehud Barak said in 2019, “Netanyahu’s strategy is to keep Hamas alive and kicking ... even at the price of abandoning the citizens (of the south ) ... because it is easier with Hamas to explain to Israelis that there is no one to sit with and no one to talk to” The former head of Shin Bet, Yuval Diskin, said in 2013, “If we look at it over the years, one of the main people contributing to Hamas’s strengthening has been Bibi Netanyahu, since his first term as PM” So yes- unequivocally condemn Hamas. But condemn Netanyahu as well. Neither wants peace.

Absolutely this. Haven't tweeted much, been too busy @TradeUnlocked talking with and listening to all manner of trade stakeholders. There's energy here, waiting for a government that wants to work with it, rather than insisting it knows better. x.com/sturdyAlex/status/1671…

This is the man who gave his mate Higton a multi-million pound PPE contract despite Higton's firm never supplying such equipment previously.

People who worked on farms through the UK government's farm worker visa in 2022 have faced wage theft, with some owed more than £1000. This follows on from our investigation last week, which uncovered widespread mistreatment on UK farms thebureauinvestigates.com/st…

This is who Liz (fucked your Morgage & cost the country Billions) Truss wants to nominate to the Lords?! No, no, no, no, no!

I don't understand why this isnt on the front page of every major newspaper - it's an immense historical moment

I heard a guy from Germany on #LBC the other day who said that the rest of the world looks at the U.K. and wonders why we put up with what we do. He said that our country is made to favour the top 1% and yet we completely accept that. He said that no other country would put up with it. And they don’t.

Hey @campbellclaret are you any good at join-the-dots? Dot 1. GB News is owned by All Perspectives Ltd, which is controlled by three significant shareholders, all of whom work for Christopher Chandler's Dubai-based investment firm Legatum. 1/

Exactly 200 years after William Wilberforce founded the Anti-Slavery Society, here’s Suella Braverman at a facility to which she hopes to deport trafficked victims of modern slavery.

Very worrying. “… it emerged that the Guardian, BBC, Daily Mirror, Independent & i newspaper were not invited [on Rwanda trip]. The home secretary will be accompanied by journalists from organisations including GB News, Daily Mail and Telegraph” theguardian.com/politics/202…

How can one party find so many members who are devoid of empathy, soul and caring yet so full of shit and abject evil? The only success they seem to have had is to succeed at being utterly repugnant….

Smug. Supercilious. Dishonest. Lethal mix.

Not snobbery. If you had an ounce of journalistic integrity you would have refused to go because other outlets, including the BBC, were banned. You are a loss making propaganda machine funded by the far right and your hosts are often conspiracy theorists, hate mongers & cranks.

The Govt banned the #BBC but took GBNews ?! When are people going to wake up & stand up to what this Govt is - ideologically driven, intolerant of dissent, terrified of scrutiny, incompetent & arrogant. And that’s for starters. Come the GE make sure you vote them out of office.

According to the latest Opinium poll, 24% of British people think the BBC has a right-wing bias, 21% think it has a left-wing bias, and 26% think it’s generally neutral. Just saying.

Exactly 200 years after William Wilberforce founded the Anti-Slavery Society, here’s Suella Braverman at a facility to which she hopes to deport trafficked victims of modern slavery.

And this year's winner of the Ken Livingstone Award for the most stupid thing you could say about Hitler goes to...

Thanks Liz. @RoryStewartUK and I both read it in full before recording our @RestIsPolitics podcast this morning. You can hear what we said about it tomorrow morning. We pointed out a few rather large inconsistencies
