"To Andy Burnham

The genocide in Gaza is the moral issue of our times, and the public deserves to know not only where those seeking elected office stand on it, but what they are prepared to do about it.

In your case, this is doubly important, as it is widely speculated that if you win in Makerfield, within months you may be prime minister."

The absolute state of this. 😡😡

"NHS staff should be banned from wearing pro-Palestinian badges", recommends a report by the #UKgov's antisemitism extremist, Lord Mann.

A Jewish A&E doctor in England told the BBC she had "felt uncomfortable" seeing colleagues wearing pro-Palestinian badges. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cn0plkd4wdno

Because god forbid that a racist might knowingly encounter a supporter of the people who are being ethnically cleansed & genocided by her co-religionists. 😡 😡

"We are deeply concerned about the potentially devastating repercussions of this proposal on #trans patients’ access to #healthcare, the ability of trans healthcare staff to conduct their everyday duties, and the #NHS’s ability to protect the rights and dignity of their trans patients and staff", say the #BritishMedicalAssociation #BMA.

But Kaz on Facebook read in #DailyMail that it's all "gender ideology", and intersex doesn't exist. So #UKgov is backing Kaz.

1918: Ireland elects a majority of Sinn Féin MPs, 73/105, pledged to set up an independent parliament. Westminster ignores Dáil Éireann, then bans it.

2026: #Scotland elects yet another majority of pro-indy MSPs, who vote by 72—55 for a 2nd #indyref. Just as they promised. Within hours, an anonymous Downing Street spokesman says "no". A faceless no.

After 108 years, #UKgov still doesn't get this democracy thing.

Can anyone go to London SW1 with a large #cluebat?

This #RejoinEU petition now has almost 97,000 signatures, very close to the trigger for a #UKParl debate. With (slightly) more positive noises from #UKGov recently, this is hopefully worth signing, to show the continuing growing recognition that #BrexitBreaksBritain and that we want to fix it! Please sign (and share/repost the details)!
