In the future these photos will be in history books and people will ask why we didn’t do anything to stop it. The abject horror of what is facing people in Gaza should be enough to jolt every person on the planet to do everything and anything they possibly can to help.

International focus is on an anticipated, retaliatory Iranian strike on Israel in the coming days… but keep an eye on the Occupied West Bank:

Israeli settlers go on the rampage killing at least one Palestinian & torching cars / homes after a 14 year old Israeli boy goes missing

The UK can no longer risk being complicit in the killing taking place in Gaza, ActionAid's Julia writes in today's Big Issue

It's time for the UK to take tangible action by immediately suspending arms sales to the Israeli government.

I slandered Malaga but this food was incredible. Vinegar leeks with tuna carpaccio and black pudding sausage in a tomato salsa plus some (lots of) tinto de verano.

I just returned from for Medical Aid for Palestinians.
The scale of the suffering and humanitarian catastrophe inflicted by Israel is vast and horrific.
What is being done to the Palestinians of Gaza is a disaster for humanity.
History will judge all who are complicit.

Also tell me why 9/10 it’s women (sometimes in heels like me) helping other women up and down the stairs on the tubes to carry prams?

These incredible women dragging the trade unions by the hair into the 21st century kicking and screaming. They should have our full and unwavering solidarity and support - heroes.
