The Wicked say look We have ÂŁ8.7 billion For more bombs We will make carpets of fire And smother the children Craters so deep they will never Find their dead We will take their homes And build our own Because far from stopping us As trues friends should They arm us to the teeth.

Also: when I phoned to ask about my mother who had died of (hospital-acquired) COVID, they said they’d temporarily lost her body as there’d been so many deaths that day they’d used mobile “overflow mortuaries”and got behind with the paperwork. Call handler broke down in tears said “I can’t do this”.

Bless those who hold what remains In their horror In their rage In their betrayal In their grief Bless the one holding his daughter’s sandal Bless the one holding the leg of her son Bless the one sitting on the rubble of home

While there is no doubt a realistic view of Xi, Putin, and Modi, there is a wide feeling that 'the West' is colonialism in new clothes, and the order needs to be disrupted. The anger and horror at the genocide in Gaza being allowed to happen with impunity cannot be understated.
