Reform by-election candidate suggested people who don’t have kids should pay more tax Exclusive: The Reform politician’s suggestion would ‘punish millions of women and strip them of their basic dignity to choose’, Labour’s deputy leader has warned

So as I struggled with miscarriage after miscarriage before having my 🌈 baby, Reform would seriously think I should pay more tax during that agony.

This policy isn’t just a slippery slope to a handmaids tale dystopian future - it’s a deliberate step towards it

Brilliant news from Wandsworth Council who are waiving parking permit fees for car clubs. 👏

I’ve been a car club user myself and know how important shared cars are for residents who don’t want to own a vehicle but still need occasional access to a car.

AI nudification: the latest weapon of violence against women and girls In Julie Burchill’s recent article in the Spectator, Does it really matter if Grok undresses us all?, she makes the argument that those who, like me, have repeatedly had their clothes removed by socia...

This week, an X user created an AI video of me being chloroformed and prepared for rape.

Victims are told it's not real and they're getting offended for no reason.

But nudification tools are weapons of sexual assault, and the harm they cause is real 👇

My kids woke up so excited this morning for the first night of Hannukah and now yet again we have a festival where I’m very conflicted about whether it’s safe to take them to synagogue to celebrate. Communities shouldn’t have to live like this.

I went to bed excited to celebrate the first night of Chanukah tonight.

I woke up to a text from my sister in Sydney reassuring us that she wasn’t at the candle event on Bondi Beach where 11 people have been killed in a shooting targeting the Jewish community.

Feeling sick with relief - and horror

Trapped in traffic and stuck travelling long distances to work because of car-centric planning?

Be grateful, says Mercedes-Benz’s latest advert which aims to persuade us that spending two years of our lives stuck inside a car is somehow actually a good thing.

Make no mistake. Those who spearheaded the Gaza genocide will try to relaunch it in a more ruthless manner, at the earliest opportunity.
They will fail only if there will be an alternative vision, one of recognition, life and equality for everyone.

Now, more than ever, Londoners from all communities must stand together, show allyship to our Jewish friends and neighbours, and be united in our rejection of hatred.

thinking of everyone emerging tonight on this horrible day, our community is strong and this is our home

One reflection talking to other Jews today is how unshocking this is.

Numbing, upsetting, scary but not shocking. We all knew it was coming. Given the enormous rise in antisemitic incidents in recent years, it's a surprise it hasn't happened more often.

This is as close as you get to an open announcement of genocidal intention, from a member of Netanyahu's cabinet.

I have supported the creation of a Palestinian State my whole life. The UK recognising a Palestinian State is a significant step along the way and I have consistently called for it since being elected. I support the conditions put forward by the UK Government which the Israeli Government should be doing irrespective of recognition. My belief is that the UK should be recognising Palestine now, but I understand that the UK Government are trying to push the Israeli Government to end the famine in Gaza, annexation of land in the West Bank and start a final status peace process.

I have supported the creation of a Palestinian State my whole life.

Just last week, I reaffirmed my support for the UK recognition of Palestine as a state in a joint letter with more than 100 Labour colleagues.

I live in Britain; I grew up in Israel. It’s painful to say, but we need real UK sanctions to save Gaza | Yair Wallach Symbolic gestures and empty statements are no longer enough. In Israel’s globalised economy, here’s what will shift public opinion, says says senior lecturer in Israeli studies Yair Wallach

By continuing business as usual, Israel’s international partners are allowing the Israeli government to continue with its genocidal campaign with no consequences beyond symbolic gestures of disapproval and statements.

And that's why they got a London Overground line named after them.

Leah Williamson, captain of Arsenal and England who was a mascot when Arsenal won their first European Cup and led us to our second, who is a two time European champion with England.

Oh captain, my captain.

The equivalent of a classroom full of children are killed in Gaza by the Israeli military each day, according to UNRWA. No child should have to live through this. It must never become normal. (1/3)

This is about the All Party Parliamentary Group report I authored, with @fusionmedia.bsky.social

Very much enjoying #Wimbledon on 5 Live for the first time. Audio commentary is such a different skill to describing events for TV. Rallying behind (!) the exceptionally talented players and in awe of their versatility. For me, tennis has long been the truly beautiful game.

As the author, I’m immensely proud of this report. But mainly I hope people read it and take notice. This is about the rise in ‘fake e-bikes’, and what’s driving it appgcw.org/resources/in...
