    Hostage politics, UK

    *Welcome to the era of "hostage politics", where Labour is apparently your only hope* against something more right-wing.

    The way to change this is to adopt ranked choice voting or else proportional representation.

    Protesting the Gaza famine, AUS

    Over 100,000 protesters (perhaps as many as 300,000) marched in Sydney to demand an end to imposed starvation in Gaza.

    I can't see state forces shut down a protest in the name of "public safety" without wondering whether that is just a fabricated excuse to suppress dissent. It may have been honest, and it may have been bogus, but we cannot blindly trust that thugs in any country make such decisions honestly and properly. They should explain the reasons so people can judge.

    Famine imposed on Gaza Palestinians

    People in Gaza are wasting away under the enforced starvation regime.
