On 22 June, the BBC‘s Laura Kuenssberg interviewed suspended Labour MP Zarah Sultana.
The interview highlighted why Labour is reluctant to readmit her, as she didn’t flinch from criticising Israel and its ongoing genocide – something PM Starmer refuses to do as a lackey of US interests.
Sultana also wasn’t afraid to hold the BBC accountable for platforming prominent Israelis who have defended and whitewashed the ongoing genocide.

Cool to see an uodated #fosstodon coc and team covenant!
I am a bit confused about point 2 from the covenant, though. "Impact before intentions" suggest to moderate posts that have negative impact, even if the poster has (or declares to have) positive intentions, but that seems to conflict with "believing people". Also "when their own actions show us who they are" seems to again encourage judgement based on actions rather than intent.
Maybe the wording of it could be improved?

The British government has carefully refused to publicly reveal whether it supported the US bombing of Iranian nuclear sites on Saturday, and even whether it deems the attack to be lawful.
Now numerous diplomatic sources with knowledge of the matter have told Middle East Eye the UK's private stance is that attacks on nuclear facilities are not illegal and should not be banned by the United Nations Security Council (UNSC).

Inside: The case for a Canadian wealth tax; and more!
Archived at: pluralistic.net/2025/06/23/bil…

I always thought that a wealth tax made more sense than income tax. Some people will be needing all their income just to live. Others may be doing really great things with their extra income. Excess wealth just sits there.
But I am wondering, what thresholds and what rates might be appropriate? Are we talking billionaires or mere millionaires. Bearing in mind that the average house is now over 1 million in many places.
Im thinking a total combined net worth of say 10 million?? Make it progressive so that it taxes billionaires more than the Tenmillionaires.

“10 лет без права переписки”

— “10 years without the right of correspondence.”
They were usually killed, the family unable to receive letters might hope that they were still alive.
How many of our disappeared are dead. Accidentally they will say. But we may never know. There is no way to find out.
