Trump and his shambolic Board of Peace (BoP) has discarded its recovery plan for Gaza, opting instead for a “tiny pilot scheme” amid fears of a “new all-out offensive before Israeli elections,” the Guardian reported. The so-called ceasefire hasn’t stopped Israel’s daily bombardment of Gaza. As recently as 16 July, Israeli forces were again striking Palestinians huddled inside tents. Israel is maniacally bombing Palestinians in tattered tents again tonight. Every. Single. Day. Not a single shot from Hamas for more than 10 months & Israel has killed more than a thousand Palestinians since — including more than 200 children. pic.twitter.com/DWzA42MAyq —…

A 14-year-old boy has been charged with a terrorism offence over an alleged plan to attack two mosques in the Sutton area of south London. The plan, the latest in a flood of Islamophobic violence, was linked to “extreme right-wing terrorism”.

He is in custody and will appear at Westminster Magistrates’ court tomorrow ,16 July 2026. “Very serious terrorism” For once, after months of the establishment ignoring Islamophobic violence, police officers responded…

Presumptive new PM Andy Burnham has indicated that he will not undo any of his defunct predecessor’s war on UK rights and freedoms in support of Israel. In fact, he has made clear that he doesn’t think it’s tough enough and intends to take it further. Burnham picks up where Starmer left off For example, Burnham has said that he wants the under-16s ban to be delivered with urgency and reinforced the lies about doing it to ‘protect children’. But he thinks it is only a starting point: a “critical first step”. Burnham made a milksop apology yesterday for Labour’s ‘stance’…

The Socialist Campaign Group of Labour MPs believes that changing the party’s leader isn’t enough. Instead, it is trying to encourage Andy Burnham (or whoever else becomes the next Labour leader) to pull the party back towards more left-wing positions. In a statement, the MPs criticised the dominant Labour right for ‘chasing Reform voters‘ with right-wing positions. The small minority of 24 left-leaning Labour MPs want “immediate bold steps” that understand the “deep structural changes” Labour should be pushing to “reverse over forty years of neoliberalism“. MP Ian Byrne shared an image of the key changes the Socialist Campaign Group are…

Rupert Lowe is the leader of Restore Britain – a Reform UK breakaway party. The important thing to know about Lowe is that he doesn’t just want to break away; he wants to break the party entirely. Or, to be more accurate, he wants to break its leader – Nigel Farage. And now he has a plan to do that: Rupert Lowe said he is going to end Nigel Farage’s career and will throw everything he has at doing so. He said that if the House of Commons Standards Committee inquiry into Farage over the £5 million leads to a suspension…

Mahmood’s plan to ‘win back the left’ taken to task

Labour’s hardline home secretary Shabana Mahmood is scheming to ‘win over the Labour left’, according to the Guardian. Her plan is to introduce new safe routes for refugees. According to migration activist Zoe Gardner, however, Mahmood’s proposals are little more than a rebranding exercise: Mahmood’s safe routes amount to rebranded community sponsorship. A lovely but incredibly minor part of refugee protection. If your church can sponsor a refugee family, great. It simply does not come close to replacing the need for an expansive state-run resettlement program. — Zoe Gardner (@ZoeJardiniere) June 27, 2026 Safe routes The Guardian reported that Mahmood wants to…

Seemingly oblivious to reality, Keir Starmer has said he will fight against Andy Burnham in a leadership challenge. We say ‘oblivious’, because Starmer is one of the most unpopular PMs in history, and Burnham just smashed Reform in a by-election despite Farage’s party leading the polls for over a year. Should Starmer defend himself, we now know roughly what he has planned: NEW: A leaked No 10 document shows how Keir Starmer plans to stop Andy Burnham becoming PM “Andy Burnham hasn’t faced any real scrutiny yet. A true contest would likely see his support wane” [@Guardian] pic.twitter.com/Oq5TmYZp1E — Politics UK…

The Labour politicians looking to replace Keir Starmer have been talking about expanding drilling in the North Sea: among said politicians is Wes Streeting. In response, Green Party deputy Rachel Millward has described his plan as “environmentally reckless and economically illiterate”. Reckless Streeting As we reported, Streeting said the following about drilling in the North Sea: Yes. I think that’s probably where Ed [Miliband] will get to. When he makes a decision, I’d be surprised if that wasn’t the case. The granting of those licences will not necessarily translate into cheaper bills, but it will translate into higher tax receipts The…

Ever since then, the man has been doing everything he can to avoid media scrutiny.

Scotland looks set for an AI data centre crisis after plans were revealed detailing a massive number of data centres planned for construction on Scotland’s Central Belt. ARPS, Scotland’s countryside charity, published an interactive map illustrating where the data centres are earmarked for. The charity compiled the data over growing concerns about the impact of the data units on electricity prices, communities and the environment. So far, at least 18 such data warehouse projects are seeking planning permission, the National reported, with a  further six in the pipeline.

New York mayor, Zohran Mamdani, unveiled his groundbreaking ‘Block by Block’ housing plan yesterday, which will see 400,000 affordable homes with stabilised rents. This restoring news follows a successful collection of more than $9 million in unpaid fines from billionaire Bezos’ Amazon. Mamdani has long made clear that he grasps the scale of the financial crisis facing ordinary people, who find themselves increasingly priced out of housing and have an uphill battle to achieve financial security. The New York mayor will also target rogue, exploitative landlords, and create tens of thousands of jobs needed to build new homes. In turn, he…

Trade unions have offered a guarded welcome to the government’s ‘Summer Savings’ plans. These include several measures which aim to ease summer holiday expense for families with children. Labour affiliated transport union TSSA has welcomed as an ‘important first step’ the government’s introduction of free bus travel for under-16s in England across August. This was part a series of measures that chancellor Rachel Reeves outlined, called ‘Great British Summer Savings’. It also includes a temporary reduction in VAT across Scotland, England and Wales from June to September.
