"The “humanitarian city” Israel’s defence minister has proposed building on the ruins of Rafah would be a concentration camp, and forcing Palestinians inside would be ethnic cleansing, Israel’s former prime minister Ehud Olmert has told the Guardian.

Israel was already committing war crimes in Gaza and the West Bank, Olmert said, and construction of the camp would mark an escalation.

“It is a concentration camp. I am sorry,” he said, when asked about the plans laid out by Israel Katz last week. Once inside, Palestinians would not be allowed to leave, except to go to other countries, Katz said.

Katz has ordered the military to start drawing up operational plans for construction of the “humanitarian city” on the ruins of southern Gaza, to house initially 600,000 people and eventually the entire Palestinian population."

‘Humanitarian city’ would be concentration camp for Palestinians, says former Israeli PM

Ehud Olmert says forcing people into camp would be ethnic cleansing, and anger at Israel is not all down to antisemitism

The deal?

Yum! Brands would only by from farms that had signed on to a fair food program with the Coalition of Immokalee Workers. They'd pay extra for those tomatoes, and the extra $ would be passed through directly to tomato pickers as a raise.

This deal nearly doubled tomato pickers' wages.

And guess how much this big, ground-shaking deal raised the price of tomatoes?

ONE PENNY PER POUND.

That's it.

Petition: Legally enshrine the right of adults to physically transition using NHS services

Introduce a law to legally protect the right of those aged 18 and over to transition using NHS services. This should specifically cover physical transition, including hormone treatment and surgery, as otherwise I believe it could potentially be interpreted as including conversion therapy.

One thing the AI craze is showing me is that there really is a generation of ‘programmers’ who actually feel that designing, coding and optimizing is somehow the tedious part of the job and not the fun part we all know it is…

US politicians calling anyone they don't like a "communist," weaponizing the law to deport opposition and building concentration camps to hold those who they labeled "dangerous" while using a three letter agency to round up their targets

"Public services are inefficient"
Nope, neoliberalism fools us by dismantling public good, and blame it after. "Break it, blame it, sell it".
