#palestine #uk_complict
Analysis: "Israel’s leaders said, explicitly, repeatedly, from the very beginning, that they are deliberately starving Gaza’s people."
Western politicians "knew what was happening all along & are complicit."
In April 2024, US govt depts told Biden that "Israel was deliberately blocking aid" - which legally required stopping the supply of weapons. Biden overruled it.

We could debate the 'all about self-interest' . Not a position I hold personally. There's economic theory, a science, and socio-economic theory which tries to marry the sciences (including sociology) with psychology and a hefty input from the philosophical and metaphysical disciplines. A melange if you like.

sorry been away from this thread. Yep, ideology probably includes religion and all are in a bubble called confirmation bias. Just a general theory and open to tweaking.

All true, but, in good European diplomatic style enough channels are left open. So, on one hand life outside the EU will be painful (the constant thorn / Machiavelli) the ball is till in play.

Possibly true in the short term but if the 'reset' is hard wired into a continuing 'relationship' I'd bet on the EU gaining over the medium / long term. i My European friends are smarter and better negotiators than anyone from the Westminster Village ii Little England needs the EU more than HMG etc acknowledge. Personally I hope the EU plays hard ball from the get go. I know I would.

Well strap me Sherlock, 'we' of course are just of a level that 'we' would not understand complex financial instruments.

I see tin hats are needed, flying pigs etc. The very prospect of HMG ever showing this 👇🏽
"The EU has said it will only move ahead with new agreements once the UK has shown “full and faithful implementation” of existing ones."
I find most unlikely.

#UKPolitics #Water #Resources I did fact check, the water industry was privatised by those thieving bastards in 1989. Previously there were ten regional authorities established by the Water Act 1973. Why don't we tell them to just go do one & take it back. A penny a share seems fair.
"However, part of the bills increase will also provide returns for investors England’s privatised water industry."
Which appears in this. 👇🏽

You have a good case for rejecting the orthodox / conformist churches. I'm fortunate (blessed?) that I was raised in the non-conformist Wesleyan Methodist tradition.
