On 10 September 2015 I made my one and only visit to Dismaland. I wanted to go back to make some more photographs with different lenses, but I didn’t have any luck in the lottery for tickets. #Banksy #Dismaland #Tropicana #WestonSuperMare #Photojournalism

I see that Alamy’s latest changes to their contributor contract have been mentioned in Private Eye (Eye 1681, p 10), which must signify something, but I’m not quite sure what.

It looks as if the merger between Getty Images and Shutterstock has been called off. As a contributor to both agencies, I’ve got absolutely no idea what this is going to mean for photographers, but I’m pretty certain that it won’t put more money in our pockets. www.standard.co.uk/showbiz/cele...

The answer is we MUST hold the next general election under PR. Never again can a man with such little vision be handed so much power to squander. The people’s voice should always be the loudest voice in the rooms of Government.

An Omani mediator said last night a peace deal between the US and Iran was within reach. This morning, the US and Israel bombed Iran. No imminent threat. No legal basis. Another illegal war dressed up as “security” and “democracy”.

CND statement condemning the illegal US-Israeli attacks on Iran. 1pm: CND protest at RAF Marham where we'll be calling on Britain to rule out the use of Diego Garcia. 3:30pm: Emergency demo at Downing Street. We encourage others to organise local protests this evening.
CND condemns illegal attacks on Iran
CND totally condemns the illegal military strikes by Israel and the US against Iran.
 
Progress was being made on a new nuclear deal. Oman’s Foreign Minister, one of the mediators between the US and Iran, made clear that Iran had agreed to degrade its current stockpiles of nuclear material to “the lowest level possible” and to “full and comprehensive verification” by the International Atomic Energy Agency. 

It's absolutely clear that the US had no intention of securing a new deal and is intent on destroying the country to bring about regime change
These illegal attacks by the US and Israel risk engulfing the entire Middle East in a devastating war, threatening the lives of hundreds of millions of people. Iran has already retaliated with attacks on Israel, US Navy fleet in Bahrain, and US bases in Kuwait, UAE, and Qatar.
 
The British government must condemn these illegal attacks  - and rule out the use of Diego Garcia. 

CND is protesting today at RAF Marham. 
 
We are also supporting an emergency demonstration in Downing Street from 3:30pm. 
 
Supporters and local groups are encouraged to organise protests in their own communities this evening.

US authorities must immediately release journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort. Journalism is not a crime. Reporting on protests is not a crime. Arresting journalists for their reporting is a clear example of an authoritarian practice.

It’s good to see that so many people are prepared to speak out and take action against Trump’s ICE stormtroopers, but is it too much to hope that their experience of fascism in the USA will encourage them to take similar action in support of the people of Gaza?
