The Israeli government’s plan to seize Gaza is horrific and must be condemned by even its most supportive allies. The British government must suspend all arms sales to Israel and end its support for Netanyahu’s egregious breaches of international law.

In opposition, Labour rightly said that giving NHS contract to private healthcare weakens the NHS, provided a worse service and costs the tax payer more. Then private healthcare donated a ton of money to Labour. Now labour have given a huge increase in NHS contracts to private healthcare.

The Centre for Health & the Public Interest said Streeting was talking “utter nonsense” about the private sector providing extra capacity because almost all the doctors it uses to perform operations are NHS staff www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Instead of handing over vast sums of money to private companies, the government should instead be investing in the NHS and staunchly defending universal healthcare.

This is deeply concerning. A record number of people who have taken part in protests will be in prison in the UK this Christmas, raising concern about the ongoing crackdown on dissent www.theguardian.com/world/2024/d...

We know it is taking more than six months for asylum applications to be processed in many cases. We know that appeals rates are increasing because of the issues with incorrect decisions. After only five months in office there is no excuse for Labour celebrating increasing deportations.

A man describes in perfect English how he escaped torture by the Taliban. He explains why he wants to come to the UK “because I speak English”. It’s quite simple. He believes neither France nor Germany will help him. He knows the risk of death. He needs a safe, regulated route. #r4today

To be clear, most asylum seekers go to other European countries. But most of those who come to the uk do so because of familiarity with our language, or culture, or because they know people here. Opting out of our share is not an available option.
