I share the deep concerns of the Parliamentary Assembly of @coe about the dangerous rise in Islamophobia. We see Islamophobic rhetoric in public and political discourse and growing stigmatisation of Muslims in Europe. It's not good enough. We need to address this.

No more girlwashing. NATO is a tool of Western domination, not equality or justice or peace. Feminism rejects domination utterly as a principle. There is no squaring this circle; the two are implacably opposed. The only feminist NATO is a disbanded NATO.

Europe and "like-minded partners" posture as defenders of the "rules-based international order." It's a lie. When it comes to 10s of 1000s of desperate people seeking refuge, the #UNCLOS, maritime law, #GenevaConvention, etc, are all just bits of paper to them, discarded at will.

Israel’s airstrikes on Gaza in May - 33 dead, 147 wounded - was not “self defence.” The slaughter of children from the air in Jenin was not “self defence.” All war crimes. All without comment in EU politics, while @vonderleyen toasted the #Nakba as the realisation of "a dream".

Sending support and solidarity to striking @icelandfoodsire workers with @the_iwu. Unpaid wages, holiday and redundancy pay, no communication on store closures, against backdrop of a brutal cost of living crisis. An injury to one is an injury to all. We need action now. https://t.co/PqqB8RKIYR

Dominic McGlinchey's parents murdered in front of him in 1987 &amp; 1994- no investigation, files missing, no answers from Gardai/ Irish Gov. Justice if not for all, is not Justice!

A big development in the Italian 'lettori' case: the Commission has referred their discrimination case to the Court of Justice. The scandal must end. Italy must comply with EU law and ensure equal pay and treatment. Pago subito i lettori!

So what did we learn from the #COVID pandemic? The real lesson is we need public medicine to protect public health, and good public information, free from interference. https://t.co/uiqXaR4QPT

Well done @OMahonyDoireann &amp; all @El_Collective, a brave stand to take.. fantastic to see a step nearer to answers &amp; justice for family of Geraldine Yankeu. All maternal deaths must get a proper inquest to learn lessons and prevent others. Much Respect &amp; Gratitude..

RT Transnational Institute
Last week the EU approved the Act in Support of Ammunition Production.
The only concern raised in the EP briefing was not that the war in Ukraine continues, but that it ends, causing demand for ammunition to drop off, explains @DondeNiamh in @euobs. https://euobserver.com/opinion/157279

Last week the Parliament approved the ASAP, the Act in Support of Ammunition Production, rushed through with an "emergency" procedure, without proper scrutiny.
"ASAP has everything to do with guaranteeing the interests of Europe's arms industry."

Clare Daly: No public consultation. No debate. A plan rushed through behind closed doors. A unilateral declaration by an unelected Commissioner that 🇪🇺 is now "a war economy," &amp; the people of Europe have to pay for it! Well the corks must be popping in the arms industry boardrooms tonight. https://t.co/ajJ35PlbDN

The irony of US-led multilateral institutions - WTO, World Bank, etc - is even dominance isn’t enough! It's the "rules-based international order," folks! They make the rules and we all just follow orders, thank you very much. It’s their world, and we’re just lucky to live in it. https://t.co/6mwbXbZ4Fc

I condemn the attack on democracy in #Guatemala. Reports now of raids on the offices of the electoral tribunal. What is taking place is a blatant assault on an electoral process. The lack of interest in Parliament this week makes me sick. The runoff on August 20 must go ahead. https://t.co/F2IgaRs40l

7 months after #QatarGate, MEPs are walking back commitments they only just made to clean up their act. Without our amendment today, this report would've watered down a ban on paid side jobs MEPs already voted for in February. We need high standards, not double standards. https://t.co/8yIqJHVRP2
