An important update from Francesca Albanese, special UN Rapporteur on Palestine. The flotilla fully complies with International Law. Any attempt to violate the flotilla’s mission is a violation of International Law which @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu has said she will uphold. Empty words, Ursula?

Oooof! (Re Fabrizio Romano) 🚨⚠️ BREAKING: Marc Guehi-Liverpool deal has COLLAPSED. Despite medical done and deal sheet submitted, Crystal Palace don’t approve the move following Igor deal off. Guehi stays at #CPFC. 🦅
Guehi especially, showed his class by scoring that beauty for Palace yesterday, a beautiful moment. Very few players have a real connection with their clubs these days. It's all about the money, and even though Saudi are paying top dollar, their league just isn't prestigious enough, entitled shits.

Again - the reason that the Good Friday Agreement locks in the ECHR is that the UK had repeatedly been held accountable by the European Court of Human Rights for human rights breaches during the Troubles - while national courts had failed to do so, even upholding miscarriages of justice

Whereas I agree that Trump is a big manchild sitting in power, I also believe that all countries are saying anything to shut him up, they're not actually DOING anything. Sadly, that's the way to get things to move along with this fascist US admin. Most world leaders won't even return his calls now.
