Ethnic cleansing was always the plan — and our government cannot pretend it didn’t know. A statement from the Independent Alliance.

This week, Israeli officials approved plans to 'capture' the entire Gaza strip and remain in the Palestinian territory indefinitely.
There is another term for this: ethnic cleansing. This was always the plan - and our government cannot pretend they didn't know. They could have ended all arms sales to Israel and implemented sanctions. They granted endless impunity for Israel's atrocities instead.
Today alone, Israeli air strikes have so far already killed 5 people in Gaza.
Today also marks 64 days of Israel's total humanitarian blockade, which has left more than 65,000 children suffering from severe malnutrition. Israel's latest announcement is nothing new. It is the next stage in an ongoing project: the erasure of the Palestinian people.
Once again, we call on our government to end all arms sales to Israel.
Anything less is complicity in crimes against humanity.
No amount of "deep concern" can make up for the military, economic and political support our government continues to provide. No words can negate the sale of deadly F-35 components. And no statements "urging" Israel to stop can match the impunity it has been granted to carry on.
We will continue to demand a full arms embargo, economic sanctions, and the only path to a just and lasting peace: an end to the occupation of Palestine.

I just found out about this incredible 3D reconstruction of Tenochtitlán! Could be a useful resource for teaching.

🎓Higher Education🎓 The UK’s universities are beleaguered and besieged. Redundancies continue to be announced. Cardiff, Dundee, Edinburgh, Kent, Queen’s Belfast, Sheffield; the list goes on and on. Perhaps 10,000 jobs will go in this academic year, and that’s just the beginning. #AcademicSky

The UK’s academic recession is in full swing

This university crisis is a grim scrabble for numbers

'Multiple Dutch universities have announced reorganisations that are likely to involve layoffs, in the wake of drastic government budget cuts that will amount to about €500 million (£414 million) a year across higher education and research.' 1/2
