Thank you, Kate

Thank you. And yes, there are so many aspects that are haunting - that’s absolutely the word.

“It’s become standard to say the Israel Palestine issue is complex and of course it is. But the war is deceptively simple. No state has the right to massacre civilians. There are lines even the shadow of war should not cross & yet Israel has, over and over again.” www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Disabled Palestinians are facing horrors piled upon horrors. I think of their suffering every day | Frances Ryan

With every bombing, more people are left to survive without the devices and medications they need, says Guardian columnist Frances Ryan

Thank you

“The Gaza war is a mass disabling event, where the casualties are not only those who die but those who survive.” On the 1st anniversary, I wrote about a hidden horror: the plight of disabled Palestinians - and the tens of thousands of civilians maimed by Israel. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Actively resent how chipper the Tory party conference is. They had a catastrophic election! They destroyed the country! That they get to laugh at how badly Labour is doing already and discuss their return to power is an insult and I hold Keir Starmer personally responsible.

In the last 48 hours alone, Badenoch has said that maternity pay has “gone too far” and that too many immigrants are coming to the U.K. who hate Israel. My column really should have come with a bingo card. Racism! Libertarianism! Tory conference has it all, kids.

“Months on from historic defeat, there is little sign the Tories understand what got them there. Nor any remorse for the state they left the country in. Forget NHS backlogs, mortgage hikes or Partygate. It never happened, or at least none of it matters.” My col. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Of course the wannabe Tory leaders have regrets. They think they weren’t toxic or nasty enough | Frances Ryan

Three months on from their historic election defeat, there is no sign of any real understanding, still less of remorse, says Guardian columnist Frances Ryan

“Let’s call it the gaslighting of a nation, where former ministers pitch their vision to save Britain as people die waiting for a doctor’s appointment.” My col. in today’s Guardian on the spectacle of the Tory leadership contest. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
