A good life for the 99% isn’t a pipe dream: it can be done. Here’s how

Our plan is radical – but by transforming how we live on a finite planet, nearly everyone gains, says Thomas Piketty and researchers from th

it is a very sensible plan. but it assumes that there are a lot of adult men who would even think about picking up their used underpants. unfortunately they mostly wait for their mum to do it.

your mum isn’t going to help you now.

Antibiotics use in livestock could rise by a third in next 15 years, UN report warns

Governments urged to act to prevent potentially disastrous impacts on human resistance to medicines

"Animal husbandry accounts for close to three-quarters of global use of antimicrobial medications and in many countries their use is poorly monitored. Some herds are routinely dosed and in many countries antimicrobials are used to increase the growth of animals bred for meat."

ULTRA PROCESSED FOOD

the superbugs are breeding like superbugs, too…

Peace fails if it is not defended. The UN’s peacekeepers cannot do this alone | Jean-Pierre Lacroix

Cuts in international support threaten the work of the women and men bringing hope to the world’s most vulnerable people

"Investing in peace is both a moral imperative and a strategic necessity. The cost of prevention and stabilisation is always far lower than the cost of conflict, displacement and instability. When peacekeeping missions are forced to scale back operations, the impact is felt immediately by the communities they serve."

only arms dealers win from wars, and the irony of them funding the far right and they’re always complaining about refugees…

US-Israel war on Iran driving historic levels of global hunger, UN says

Conflict and cuts in funding have left World Food Programme ‘taking from the hungry to feed the starving’

"if oil prices remained above $100, 45 million more people would face acute food shortages."

forty five million people starving to keep Netanyahu out of prison a bit longer. this may be the worst hostage situation in history.

forty five people starving is appalling. forty five hundred is worse than 9/11. forty five thousand is biblical catastrophe. forty five million is beyond belief.

Solomon facepalms.

ok. google ai. the two answers are for finding what style you prefer.

Nobody better represents Israeli politics today than Itamar Ben-Gvir | Ben Reiff

He may be the most brazen of the nation’s leaders, but his ideological spirit is found throughout its government, and beyond, says Ben Reiff

"Let’s start with the obvious: far from being a marginal figure in Israeli politics, Ben-Gvir is one of the most senior ministers in the government. The national security ministry, which was created specifically for Ben-Gvir, grants him supreme authority over Israel’s regular and militarised police forces both within and beyond the state’s internationally recognised borders."

UN backs historic climate crisis ruling, despite US attempts to stop resolution

The US, Russia, Iran and Saudi Arabia – some of the highest oil-producing nations and major greenhouse gas emitters – opposed the measure

carried 141 - 8.

named and shamed: "The US joined Saudi Arabia, Russia, Israel, Iran, Yemen, Liberia and Belarus in opposing the resolution on Wednesday. Cop31 climate summit host Turkey, India, and oil producers Qatar and Nigeria were among those abstaining."

After the painful ruse of Starmerism, the left should be cautious about Andy Burnham | Owen Jones

With the Greens now a viable alternative, a Labour leader will not win power again without the progressive vote. But they will need to earn

"Six years ago, Keir Starmer stood on a leadership platform that included public ownership, hiking taxes on the well-to-do, scrapping tuition fees and putting “human rights at the heart of foreign policy”. It was a deceitful ruse to con the Labour membership into installing a faction dedicated to crushing the left. A failure to scrutinise Burnham after that experience would smack of fatal naivety."

nah, that’s not a ruse, that’s fraud.

it’s a criminal offence.
