Still, it's about time some money (laundered or otherwise) trickled up north from the capital.

Doesn't matter which capital, us Mancunians aren't fussy.Poor yes, fussy no! ?️? :post-4641-1156694083: :violin:

Typical lack of professionalism from UK police. They don't even have a selfie with the suspect showing their name and saying how it's not Britain's fault.

Massachusetts says it's Ok to abort (kill) baby up to birth

Up to birth. Maybe we should extend to kindergarten to see first report card. Massachusetts will allow abortion up to delivery after Gov. Maura Healey signed legislation Monday extending abortion protections. https://www.newsnationnow.com/politics/abortion/massachusetts-revises-abortion-law-extending-up-to-birth/

Small boat crossings plunge – but the real reason Is far from clear

bannork · August 6Aug 6

Small boat arrivals across the English Channel have fallen sharply this year, cutting one of Britain's fiercest political battlegrounds in half. Crossings are down by around 45% compared with the same period last year, but the dramatic drop has triggered a fresh row over what is actually driving the decline. Instead of arguing about how to stop the crossings, ministers and opponents are now fighting over who deserves the credit. Political Battle Replaces Border Battle The Conservatives have dis

Nurses collapse as NHS wards become ‘not fit for humans’

Nurses are collapsing, suffering seizures and battling dehydration on sweltering hospital wards as England braces for another dangerous heatwave. The Royal College of Nursing says some NHS workplaces have become “unbearably hot” and “not fit for humans”, exposing staff and vulnerable patients to serious risks. Nurses left dizzy, faint and fighting to cope The RCN has received accounts of nurses collapsing after long shifts, while others reported temperatures above 30C and one worker described c

The United States of America may be the greatest place for functionally illiterate people to live in all of human history. An eye-popping column in The Financial Times the other day noted how people in the United States with very low literacy make about as much per hour as the average worker in Great Britain. https://nypost.com/2026/08/11/opinion/miracle-us-economy-zooms-ahead-so-dsa-haters-resort-to-lies/

Israeli Settlers Trap Two Palestinian Families in West Bank
Israeli Settlers Trap Two Palestinian Families in West Bank

bannork replied to webfact's topic in World News - Discussion

Palestinian families have been forced from their homes in the occupied West Bank as Israeli forces moved to dismantle settler outposts following days of escalating tensions. About a dozen households in Qusra were ordered to leave, while three Palestinian homes had been besieged by settlers with water and electricity cut off. Families driven out as troops take over homes Residents of two of the three besieged properties said they were ordered out on Thursday and moved into the remaining house. Elsewhere, residents of 11 other homes were also told to leave as the Israeli military declared the area a closed military zone. Qusra Mayor Abdel Azim Wadi said troops were using some vacated Palestinian properties as barracks. The IDF said the operation was intended to “protect the residents” and that two illegal settler outposts had been dismantled. Settler siege sparks fresh confrontation The crisis began on Sunday when settlers blocked access to the families’ homes and cut their water and electricity. One resident said soldiers later entered his house, before ordering him and his brother to leave as the area was sealed off. The operation followed clashes between Israeli security forces and a larger crowd of settlers. Video showed troops using tear gas and stun grenades, while officials said one Israeli was detained and equipment confiscated. Israel vows arrests after intimidation Israeli government spokesman David Mencer described the settlers’ actions as “deplorable” and “unacceptable”, promising arrests and prosecutions. US Ambassador Mike Huckabee, a longstanding supporter of Israeli settlements, called the intimidation of the Qusra families a “horrific act of terror”. The episode has also raised questions over the conduct of Israeli forces after soldiers were filmed praying with settlers when the families first sought help. The military said disciplinary action would follow. Qusra becomes a symbol of rising violence Residents say Qusra has faced sustained targeting, including the burning of a newly completed mosque last month. In nearby Jalud, settlers surrounded a Palestinian home for more than two weeks in July before its owners fled and settlers took control. UN figures show the wider crisis is intensifying, with about 3,800 Palestinians displaced in the West Bank this year through settler violence, demolitions and evictions. The Qusra confrontation now risks becoming another flashpoint in a rapidly worsening struggle over Palestinian land and Israeli settlement expansion. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cj4kppdk2qwo

Ukraine offers Russia Black Sea truce as grain fears mount
Ukraine offers Russia Black Sea truce as grain fears mount

bannork posted a topic in The War in Ukraine

Russia Batters Ukraine's Ability to Export Grain in Black Sea Ukraine has offered Russia a potential truce in the Black Sea, proposing that both sides halt attacks on civilian targets as strikes on ports and shipping threaten to disrupt global food supplies. Kyiv sent the proposal through a third party and is awaiting Moscow’s response, according to a source familiar with the matter. Kyiv moves as shipping crisis deepens The initiative comes after weeks of escalating attacks on vessels and port infrastructure. Both Russia and Ukraine are major forces in global agriculture markets but have accused each other of targeting ships involved in food exports. Shipowners have increasingly avoided Odesa, Ukraine’s main grain-exporting region, after repeated Russian strikes damaged port infrastructure and hit foreign-flagged vessels. Kyiv has been forced to rely more heavily on alternative routes as confidence in Black Sea shipping deteriorates. Moscow denies receiving formal offer Russia had not publicly responded to Kyiv’s reported proposal. Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko said Moscow had received no formal ceasefire request, despite growing discussion of temporary moratoriums. “We have not received any formal proposals,” Grushko said, according to Russian state media. Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said separately that a proposal had been conveyed to both Moscow and Kyiv for a moratorium on Black Sea attacks. Grain markets react as exports plunge The uncertainty is already rippling through agricultural markets. European wheat futures turned lower after news of Ukraine’s offer, giving up earlier gains as traders weighed the prospect of reduced disruption. Ukraine’s grain exports have suffered a dramatic hit. Its agricultural sector says exports through the Black Sea fell 76% year-on-year so far in August, with the impact threatening to spread far beyond the battlefield. A fragile route with global consequences Any agreement to protect civilian shipping could provide an immediate lifeline to Ukraine’s battered export industry and help stabilise food markets. But with Moscow and Kyiv still trading accusations over attacks at sea, the proposal faces a major test: whether either side is prepared to restrain its military campaign when the Black Sea has become one of the war’s most strategically important fronts.

Zionism and the Right of Return

unblocktheplanet · 2 hours ago2 hr

Credit: the author. The only UN resolution ever to be rescinded was 3379 which equated Zionism as racism. The resolution may have been rescinded out of a sense of guilt or obligation but the racism has been practiced ever since there was Zionism. “Israel’s Declaration of Independence describes the country as a "Jewish state," but also provides for full social and political equality regardless of religious affiliation.” By definition, that’s a theocracy. Just like Iran. The State of Israel has

“All Palestinians are violent terrorists!”

unblocktheplanet · 2 hours ago2 hr

Credit: the author. Very few Israelis, save historians, or the outside world concerned over Middle East issues, know that Palestinians didn’t start the fire. The violence was started by the Jewish “defence” militia, HaShoMer, in 1909. Even following subsequent Jewish paramilitary terrorists, at least some Palestinians did their best to resolve the conflict by nonviolent means. The Fifth Noncooperation Congress (Mutamar al-La-taawun) of five to six hundred Palestinians, was held in Nablus in 1
