Because he doesn't believe Palestinian lives are equal to Israeli lives. Because he's totally lost his humanity in his bubble where he sees peoples lives as bargaining chips. And because the man is devoid of all principles and compassion. Next question.

Starmer asked to explain why recognition of Palestinian statehood is conditional.

This. I've listened in real time to BBC Radio - in particular Radio 4 - devolving into a reactionary mouthpiece. The news segments are principally concerned with uncritically repeating racist, far-right narratives about immigrants. Two Minutes Hate, every hour on the hour.

A map of countries that recognise the State of Palestine. You can now add France… but apparently not the UK, Germany, Canada of Australia. Shameful.

I presume there is this tiny army of Very Angry Radicalised People sweeping the web and pouncing into the comment section of any article which is remotely sympathetic to trans people. So you quickly learn to write on the subject and then never, ever look at the comments.

A councillor tried to stop another 24-hour gaming centre. Planning officers agreed with her but approved it anyway. Not by mistake – by law. How this could be changed to stop them plaguing our high streets and harming vulnerable people ⤵️

It’s important to protect children online, but tech firms and legislators must make sure that they don’t lock children out of material they have a right to access – and that the line between “appropriate” and “inappropriate” isn’t discriminatory.
