Reposted by Rachael 🦞George Monbiot @georgemonbiot.bsky.social · 14/10/2026Many people seem to be passionately attached to the statement “Zionism is racism”. But it seems unnecessary, even gratuitous, to me. We can say all the things we need about successive governments of Israel and their horrific policies without having to make this generalisation. 3134222
Rachael 🦞 @auberjeangenie.bsky.social · 10hEritreans have a 96% asylum grant rate currently, so this is a truly insane announcement from Mahmood. What's even more insane is that the government she'd announce this same day the government put out a statement confirming their belief Eritrea and Ethiopia are about to engage in all out war. 110
