Yesterday morning, we woke up to rocket alerts. Israel began bombing Iran. As often happens when the media attention shifts, Israel seized the moment to intensify its attacks against Palestinians. Here’s what happened while the world was looking the other way🧵

More acts of unbelievable courage. To put this in context, think Iranian equivalent of former England 🏴 goalkeeper Joe Hart putting his life on the line to speak out. Mazaheri also posted a picture on his Instagram combining Ali Khamenei with the word "Satan”. #IranMassacre
“Khamenei, know this: your rule over this land has reached its end. The wall of fear has collapsed, and from the ruins of tyranny, Iran has risen tall.” Rashid Mazaheri, former Iranian national team goalkeeper, published a powerful statement about the #IranMassacre on IG. In

Many residents raise frustration with the lack of secure cycle storage. These responses show funding for new hangers was cut by 2/3 when Aspire's Lutfur Rahman became Mayor and the reduced number delivered. If @CllrSirajIslam is elected Mayor, there will be a big boost in funding

It's been a long time coming...
Social media has become a failed state. If we want to protect our children there is only one thing we can do: take back control. Las redes sociales se han convertido en un Estado fallido. Si queremos proteger a nuestros hijos, solo tenemos una opción: recuperar el control.

The Islamic Republic has sentenced surgeon Dr. Alireza Golchini to death after arresting him during Iran's national uprising. His "crime" was treating protesters wounded by the regime.

This is one of the most beautiful moments you will ever witness. Sir Nicholas Winton helped 669 children — most of them Jewish — escape the Holocaust. His humanitarian accomplishments would remain unknown and unnoticed by the world for nearly 50 years. Then in 1988 he

This is a huge and potentially life-changing policy for many in their 20s/30s, a group often completely ignored when it comes to policies that genuinely tackle the cost of living
We're capping ground rent at £250. That means if you are a leaseholder, and your ground rent is more than £250, you’ll be paying less. This will make a huge difference to homeowners and will ease the cost of living for people across the country.

Great news
We promised in our manifesto to “tackle unregulated and unaffordable ground rent charges”. We’re honouring that commitment today by legislating to cap ground rents at £250 per year, changing to peppercorn after 40 years.

We will always stand together. When the forces of hate come, wherever they come from, some of us Muslims will always stand with you in challenging hate.
When the Nazis demanded yellow stars, a Muslim king said No.. And 250,000 Jews lived because of it... June 1941. Rabat, Morocco. A telegram arrived at the palace carrying orders from Vichy France. New racial laws were to be enforced immediately. Jewish Moroccans would lose

I am horrified by the antisemitic terrorist attack at a synagogue on the holiest day in the Jewish calendar. The government has stepped up security at synagogues across the whole of the country, and we will do whatever is required to keep our Jewish community safe. To those

Rightfully calling it out, Trump’s consistent attacks and Islamophobic comments are clear for all to see
