The truth will out: we are here to unveil the full scale of the government’s complicity in genocide and to hold it to account for the monstrous bloodshed in Palestine, writes JEREMY CORBYN

ISRAEL’S genocidal assault on the people of Gaza, its state-sponsored provocations against Palestinians in besieged Gaza, the illegally occupied West Bank and its unremitting bombardment of Lebanon have sharpened international condemnation of the zionist state.
The United States, Britain and most members of the EU, plus Japan, Canada and Australia — which constitute themselves as “international opinion” despite comprising a minority of UN members — provide diplomatic cover and, in various quantities, military and financial aid to Israel’s war effort. But, faced with Israel’s continuing starvation tactics as it ethnically cleanses north Gaza (in preparation for its resettlement?) even the US has been forced to propose a month’s probation for the Israeli state.
Israeli ruling circles and the military leadership have abandoned any notion of proportionate response and to their targeted bombardment of schools, hospitals and residential areas have added attacks on United Nations peacekeepers in Lebanon, UN refugee workers in Gaza and, at the UN general assembly in New York, the United Nations itself.

US tariffs have had Von der Leyen bowing in submission, while comments from the former European Central Bank leader call for more European political integration and less individual state sovereignty. All this adds up to more pain and austerity ahead, argues NICK WRIGHT

Starmer sabotaged Labour with his second referendum campaign, mobilising a liberal backlash that sincerely felt progressive ideals were at stake — but the EU was then and is now an entity Britain should have nothing to do with, explains NICK WRIGHT

Deep disillusionment with the Westminster cross-party consensus means rupture with the status quo is on the cards – bringing not only opportunities but also dangers, says NICK WRIGHT

Holding office in local government is a poisoned chalice for a party that bases its electoral appeal around issues where it has no power whatsoever, argues NICK WRIGHT
