Keir #Starmer risks #genocide complicity after #Trump's Iran threat
Keir Starmer has been warned that his inaction in the face of #Trump’s #genocidal threats against Iran risk making him complicit in #WarCrimes.
The PM has so far failed to speak out against the US president’s chilling warning that “a whole civilisation will die tonight” as his deadline for escalation in Iran loomed on Tuesday.

John Swinney says #Scotland not invited to Cobra meeting on Iran war
It comes after #Starmer told business chiefs in #DowningStreet on Monday that it must be a “joint effort” to tackle the impact of the #war, saying the Government “can’t do it on its own”.
However, #devolved #governments have NOT been asked to take part in the meeting.

Protect #VPN use in the UK

Take action! Protect VPN use in the UK VPNs help people to stay private and safe online. Young people use them to avoid harassment, or protect location data. Companies use them to make sure remote log-in to their networks are secure. Journalists, campaigners and whistle blowers use them to protect their work and themselves. But the Government wants to force people to verify their age when they buy a VPN. This will deter people from using VPNs to stay safe and secure online. Why are the government proposing restrictions to accessing VPNs?
#Scottish #Labour would let controversial tech giant #Palantir “gain control of our #health #data”, an MP has told The National
“But people must be under no illusions; if Labour were in Government in #Scotland, Palantir would gain control of our health data and Scottish patients would become beholden to their services as they further entrench their #monopoly on #NHS data management.”

Last week, the Nerve revealed that people working at MoD consider the US spy-tech giant is posing “a national #security #threat to the UK”
Senior systems engineer told said ministers are “missing the realities of data scraping, of aggregation, & the fact that Palantir is building its own rich picture of our nation that they can use for their own ends”

Take action! What’s the problem? The Government has proposed amendments to the Children Wellbeing and Schools Bill, which would give Ministers the power to restrict access to "internet services". This is supposed to give the Government the power to ban under 16s from social media but “internet services" is a very broad definition, which means any online platform can be included. The wording of the amendment means they could do this without even having to prove that these sites are harmful for children.
#Britain could join US-Israel war on Iran, says David #Lammy
Wouldn’t trust Lammy (friends w/Vance) for any #legal or #moral opinion
The UK has already given the US permission to use British bases to #bomb Iran’s #missile facilities as part of it and #Israel’s #unprovoked assault on the country which began after #Trump walked away from talks on the country’s nuclear programme
