“[UK] TORIES TOOK £1.3 MILLION FROM FIRM LINKED TO ISRAELI SETTLEMENTS” by Martin Williams and Dania Akkad in Declassified UK @uk_politics@UKLabour@mastodon.cloud@thegreenparty@palestine@fedibird.com @Palestine@masto.ai@palestine@lemmy.ml @palestinenews@gts.liberated.press “The Conservative Party took £1.3m in donations from a business linked to the destruction of Palestinian villages – before opposing new sanctions on Israeli settlements last month.” [..] “Peter Frankental, Amnesty International UK’s economic affairs director, said: ‘JCB’s products have been used in the demolition of Palestinian homes and the expansion of illegal settlements. That makes them part of the machinery of ethnic cleansing and apartheid – and that cannot be ignored.’” https://www.declassifieduk.org/tories-took-1-3-million-from-firm-linked-to-israeli-settlements/ #Press #SocialMedia #Journalism #JCB #Bamford #Donations #Tories #Badenoch #Gaza #PalestinianGenocide #Zionism #SettlerColonialism #Resistance #EradicateZionism #DecolonizePalestine #GlobaliseTheIntifada #Israel

It’s right to highlight how #Sunak and #Starmer ‘s governments were completely asleep at the wheel on #wildfire risk and preparedness…but which ministers and departments dropped the ball? The Fire Service is currently overseen by Minister for Building Safety, Fire and Resilience…but under #Tories was Minister for Crime, Policing and Fire? Where is #Defra in all of this? https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/oct/04/government-dropped-plan-england-countryside-wildfires

Political donations have always been about buying favour and privilege. A true democracy would not be dependent on donations. They undermine concept everyone has one vote and those votes count equally (they don’t in the UK also because of FPTP). Notice that neither #Labour nor #Tories are suggesting political donations be banned from UK residents - just capped. #Reform are just making clear how obscene and undemocratic political donations are by the scale of those they accepted. #ukpol

This is were we are and were we are heading. Our elected officials, our law makers, our leaders all using a crappy system they think makes them clever. We will be in effect governed by prompts and the nonsense they spit out. #brexit #BrexitLies #politics #toryscum #tories #conservatives #ukpolitics #bbc #news #EU #Labour #labourparty #RejoinEU #ReformUK #farage #immigration #ReformAreUseless #farageisaracist #farageisatraitor #TaxTheRich #ai #artificialintelligence #aislop #aisecurity
