Sickening to watch BBC News spin-doctoring Britain's culpability and complicity for Israel's genocide in Gaza. Political editor Chris Mason talks of the UK's growing realisation of its "limited agency" over Israel, while conversely international editor Jeremy Bowen says we are seeing from the government the first demands for "accountability" from Israel. Neither analysis is true. The British government can do lots to hold Israel to account but is doing none of it, apart from offering empty rhetoric that is greeted with a chorus of nodding heads and mock-frowns in parliament. The UK can stop arms sales to Israel, stop transfers from its RAF base on Cyprus of US and German weapons to Israel, stop UK spy slights over Gaza to provide Israel with intelligence, tear up trade agreements, impose economic sanctions, ban Israel from cultural and sporting events, and much, much more. And these two big BBC editors both fail to give expression to what is at the forefront of every viewer's mind: How has it taken 19 months of Israel slaughtering and starving Gaza's children, live-streamed to our homes, for the UK government only now to notice the horror and begin talking about accountability?

A standing ovation for @UNLazzarini at #EHF2025. “300 UNRWA staff have been killed in Gaza. People are arrested, tortured. But despite everything, our staff in Gaza continue to deliver services on a daily basis.” A powerful reminder of courage and commitment.

There’ll be no humanizing New York Times profile of this boy. The Empire State Building won’t illuminate for his murdered siblings. No US politician will condemn his kidnapping, or express an ounce of sympathy for his unfathomable loss. Why does his grief mean so much less?
A freed Palestinian teenage hostage discovered that the Israeli army had killed his father and all of his siblings while he was in captivity.

Yesterday's PMQs was deeply shameful. UK proudly welcomes refugees from Ukraine (as we should), but when our weapons decimate Gaza, we deny sanctuary to the most vulnerable. As naked a display of institutional racism coming to the surface as you'll ever witness in UK politics.

It’s time for the UK government to clearly and unambiguously reaffirm its consistent official policy of support for a two state solution on “67 borders with Jerusalem as a shared capital. And that starts with the recognition of Palestine Time is running out. Netanyahu and Trump are dismantling the rules based order, acting with impunity and we need to stand up for UK policy, UK values , UK interests and in line with UK public opinion.
Simply horrifying Trump says Palestinians have ‘no alternative’ but to leave Gaza President in effect endorses ethnic cleansing of territory before hosting meeting with Benjamin Netanyahu theguardian.com/world/2025/f…
