More crude repression of thought about Palestine. Democracy unravelling fast across the West

From the FT today 'Labour sold out its party conference 'business day' after a "Glastonbury style" rush which saw 500 top executives pay £3000 each for a ticket.' Don't say we haven't been warned.
@RosieP4 As a Forester, if I wanted to fell this many trees I would need a felling licence which would be issued with obligations to replant. If I were an orchard owner I’d just need a bulldozer ☹️
Israel has a Right to Defend Itself. WTF?! According to 2009 Wall St Journal article (deleted, but archived), "Hamas is an Israeli creation" web.archive.org/web/2009092621…
And... We're off. Again, another massive demonstration of solidarity with Palestine. Freedom for Palestine National Demonstration, Trafalgar Square/Whitehall, London, 27 April 2024. @STWuk @PSCupdates
#levellingup is a failure. No surprise. What is shocking are the commentators, academics and think tanks who took LU seriously. There was never ever any prospect that an election slogan and some regeneration monies was going to rebalance UK economy. ft.com/content/45c12c…
Even more student housing at Elephant & Castle? 1500 student rooms and "c.200 high quality affordable homes" (nothing more specific on tenure mix)

A lot of drivers are entirely incapable of driving at a constant speed for a period of time, that makes traffic jams an absolute inevitability.

How 'predatory' Wall Street landlords are pricing Brits out of housing. Last year, there was £1.3billion of private investment in British new builds and almost two fifths came from American funds mol.im/a/13135727 via @MailOnline
“Indifference is the raw material that ruins intelligence. Some whimper piously, others curse obscenely, but nobody, or very few ask themselves: If I had tried to impose my will, would this have happened?” Antonio Gramsci died OTD in 1937, the best, the only, Albanian communist.
Good to see this public recognition of the importance of Joan Robinson. @monkeco @cacrisalves BBC News - Joan Robinson: Economist remembered with blue plaque in Notting Hill bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…
Strange that the UK media are not covering yet another massive pro-Palestinian demo in London. Anyone would think they were pro-apartheid genocidal Israel.
Mail: 'Hideous' newbuild house slammed for crucial design flaw. Can you spot it?” No. The owners have no hope of driving the car you can see reflected in the window into a garage unfit for purpose, like 90% of new build garages today. mol.im/a/13336907 via @MailOnline

📢 Missed our previous WEBINAR on EU policies in relation to housing and urban planning? Watch it here 👉 youtu.be/yEIhfAYTeGk
Things previously treated as landscaping for amenity purposes will become vital and hopefully expanded elements of planning permissions as our climate heats. Trees dramatically reduce local temperatures and together with soft, permeable surfaces significantly reduce runoff.
Grateful to @myworcester for putting a TPO on these trees at Elgar Retail Park. Vital for shade and stopping heat island effect being exacerbated. Subsequently Starbucks plans have been revised after them saying the drive thru couldn’t possibly be positioned differently before.

'Improving labour mobility to help people move to where jobs are most productive and help productive employers recruit the labour they need...' Is it really beyond us to create (at least some of) the most productive jobs and industries where the people are located?
