BREAKING: Zeteo has released, globally, the film the BBC so controversially refused to air. "Gaza: Doctors Under Attack" is now available to watch in full at gazadoctors.film and zeteo.com. Here's the trailer:

111 BBC staff have signed a letter to their bosses saying "The BBC is often performing PR for Israel." and it is unacceptable. Why is this allowed? The BBC Board should be fired today. Like/RT if you agree.

I’ve met the Bobbies of Bob Vylan fame on two occasions and can attest to their soundness. If you’re more outraged by their words than the actions of a genocidal war machine, please get in the sea.

The Jewish president of Mexico is obviously an antisemite, it seems.

A lot of people are reasonably very concerned that a well-liked comedian might be hurt by angry online comments, but are unconcerned that already piled-on and sometimes destitute immigrants might be hurt by false and alarmist online comments because they see the former as a person but not the latter

If you were outraged by the crimes against civilians on Oct 7th but not by the many more crimes against civilians *since* Oct 7th - just this week: kids being burned from head to toe; having their limbs amputated without anesthetic - then you don’t actually care about crimes against civilians.

A disgusting escalation. Be under no illusions, Trump enabled the Israelis to move the goalposts on the original phased ceasefire plan. Trump pushing complete ethic cleansing of Gaza and the Israelis will deliver him his resort on the Med.

The rare day that I agree with our Ursula. Europe really has to pull its weight now, we cannot appease Putin. Ukraine is not the end goal for him or his successors.

It took seeing adult bullies to understand that my childhood bullies didn’t even really want to hurt me, they just wanted to feel powerful and how I felt about it wasn’t even in the equation. I can’t imagine someone not outgrowing that, but apparently it happens quite a lot!

Awful day today. I had 2 volumes of the collected work of Hegel in my car and someone broke in and left 2 more.

Six Nations Full Contact season 2 basically following England for the first three episodes is really boring. Naturally I would prefer to see more from Ireland, but also Italy and France had more interesting stories than England. It’s no wonder it’s not being picked up for a 3rd season.

New question for the #ge24 today. Who will Stephen Donnelly join next now? Back to Independent or will he join a new party.

My night one prediction for #ge24 is that FF and FG will have between 81-83 seats between them. They will bring along Independent Ireland and another couple of independents to make up a working majority.

For the love of god, anyone tweeting tally results from count centres today please use the #GE24 hashtag. Makes things a lot easier for those of us following along from abroad. Thanks ❤ bonus points if you can share an excel sheet or Google Sheet.

Getting the chance to speak with 2 of the Palestinian Womens national football team at the weekend was a real treat. Very moving experience watching the documentary about their game against Bohemians in Dublin this year. They encouraged the 20 or so of us present to continue protesting! Inspiring!

Just had an interesting conversation with a police officer in Berlin who sees absolutely no problem with Israeli counter protestors waving the flag of the IDF. She didn't think the flag of a genocidal army is in any way incitement to violence.

Listening to this week's @quietriotpod.bsky.social about gambling addiction. Important to note the role of banks in the equation too. They too have access to the data and should a policy to freeze an account if there is irregular patterns of behaviour. I.e 100 transactions and losing a months wages

Politics has its ups and downs. The rise of the AfD could become the fall of the AfD in the next years. My bigger concern is the European geopolitical implications of a ProPutin Chancellor and Trump getting elected within 9 months of each other. Might have to leave Berlin. @quietriotpod.bsky.social
