“HOW BRITISH FOREIGN POLICY IS FROZEN IN THE RUINS OF EMPIRE” by Adam Ramsay in Declassified UK @uk_politics@Declassified_UK@mastodonapp.uk@DeclassifiedUK@independent-media.co.uk@palestine@fedibird.com @Palestine@masto.ai@palestine@lemmy.ml @iran@iraq@mastodon.social@palestinenews@gts.liberated.press@Yemen@mastodon.social “Bases on British overseas territories – namely, Gibraltar; Ascension Island; Akrotiri and Dhekelia in Cyprus; and Diego Garcia – play particularly important roles in projecting US power. These bases are all vital nodes in the Pentagon’s global surveillance system. For example, there are four main ‘ground antennae’ in the Global Positioning System (GPS). Two of these are on US territory, in Florida and Hawaii, and two are on British territory, on Ascension Island and Diego Garcia, providing circumglobal spread” https://www.declassifieduk.org/british-foreign-policy-is-frozen-in-the-ruins-of-empire/ #Press #SocialMedia #Journalism #Politics #Government #UK #Empire #US #MilitaryBases #Israel #Gaza #PalestinianGenocide #GCHQ #Akrotiri #DiegoGarcia #Singapore #Oman #SpyFlights #Bahrain

“UK government facing legal challenge over IHRA antisemitism definition in schools” by Oscar Rickett in Middle East Eye @uk_politics@UKLabour@mastodon.cloud@palestine@fedibird.com @Palestine@masto.ai@palestine@lemmy.ml @iran@iraq@mastodon.social@palestinenews@gts.liberated.press@Yemen@mastodon.social “The British government is being challenged legally over its recommendation for schools to adopt the contested IHRA definition of antisemitism. The Good Law Project launched a legal challenge against the government on Monday. The group’s executive director Jo Maugham told Middle East Eye he was worried that ‘rules which conflate criticism of Israel with antisemitism… could be among the drivers of antisemitism’.” https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/uk-government-facing-legal-challenge-over-ihra-antisemitism-definition-schools #Press #SocialMedia #Journalism #Government #UK #IHRA #Schools #Israel #Zionism #AntiSemitism #GoodLawProject #Bell #BellReport #Labour #Burnham #LabourFriendsOfGenocide #LabourFriendsOfIsrael #HierarchyOfRacism #HateSpeech #Islamophobia #Palestine #Censorship

“Labour's message to #UK voters: Israel is more important than your needs” by Tom Blackburn in Middle East Eye @uk_politics@UKLabour@mastodon.cloud@palestine@fedibird.com @Palestine@masto.ai@palestine@lemmy.ml @palestinenews@gts.liberated.press@thegreenparty The UK Labour Party has signalled its intention to break local co-operation deals with the #GreenParty over the latter’s ‘Zionism is racism’ motion, passed at the Greens’ conference last month. [..] “The arrogance of this move is striking. Labour spent the best part of three years backing Israel to the hilt, both militarily and politically, as it inflicted genocide on Gaza, only latterly expressing reservations after coming under increasing domestic and international pressure. Now it presumes the right to lecture the Greens about standards of morality and political hygiene, as if it has any claim to the moral high ground” https://www.middleeasteye.net/opinion/labours-message-britons-israel-more-important-your-needs #Press #SocialMedia #Labour #Burnham #Gaza #Genocide #PalestinianGenocide #Israel #Zionism #Hypocrisy #Lies #LabourFriendsOfGenocide

“‘Unbearable Hell’: Araghchi Warns US as Guards Dismiss US ‘Iron Gate’ Plan”

by Palestine Chronicle Staff

@palestine@fedibird.com @Palestine@masto.ai @palestine@lemmy.ml @iran @palestinenews@gts.liberated.press @Yemen@mastodon.social

“Key Developments:

• Abbas Araghchi said Iran’s two-day proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz remained on the table and called for an end to the war on all fronts.
• Araghchi said mediators had made no new moves in recent days, linking the pause to the fallout from the US midterm elections.
• Iran’s Revolutionary Guards dismissed the US ‘Iron Gate’ maritime plan and said Iranian forces would respond to attacks on the country’s interests”

I first joined Mastodon in April 2022. I joined because I was looking for a place to replace Twitter for me. I needed to get away from the Bird site, a place that I had already spent 14 years of my life where it was my primary social media platform. Honestly, at the time, I was looking for a new place where I could yell into the wind as I had been doing near the end of my time on Twitter. However, what I found here wasn't that. I found more community where people were interacting. I found that hashtags mattered again. I found a social media platform, emphasis on the social. Over time, my interactions haven't been as active as they used to be. I'm more yelling into the wind, sometimes. I want to fix that. I want to get back to that form of social media where folks are actually social, actually interacting, actually chatting about things. Anyway, I'm rambling. Hope you have a great day. And if you follow me, but I don't follow you back - give me a shout here. Let's chat about...something. #SocialMedia #Mastodon #Twitter #Fediverse

Talk of sorting out toxic social media is hot air without action. Despite the likes of X, Meta and YouTube having business models that fuel harms, we have to be on them to hear from the UK government. Back our call for public sector use of decentralised, federated platforms. https://peertube.openrightsgroup.org/w/nu9rv6fAUTWQUoQRKc5V6Z Write your MP ➡️ https://action.openrightsgroup.org/tell-your-mp-government-must-move-away-toxic-social-media-platforms #mastodon #fediverse #bluesky #socialmedia #onlinesafety #ukpolitics #ukpol
