Almost half of UK’s young people suffering mental distress
Monday, 11 December 2023 — Just Treatment
It’s shocking but true: mental distress among young people has never been higher. Almost half of all young people now report that they face mental health problems.
Precarious jobs and housing, climate anxiety, a traumatising and privatised school system, and social media platforms which push anxiety-inducing content are all driving this crisis. Corporate business decisions are creating a world which for many people, especially young people, is brutal.

VIP Lane Contracts inflated by £925 Million
Monday, 11 December 2023 — Goodlaw Project
The Tories spent £3.8bn on PPE through the so-called VIP lane – but now we can reveal they overpaid by at least £925m.
We’ve run the numbers on an internal health department document, and the contracts signed with VIP lane companies cost an average of 80% more.
Some of them were paid at even higher rates than that. The average price for medical gowns was £5.87. But the gowns bought from Meller Designs Ltd – a fashion company run by a Tory donor – cost more than twice that: £12.64.
And more than a quarter of this VIP lane stuff was just no good. One deal brokered by an adviser under Liz Truss wasted more than £145m on unusable masks.
We’re uncovering more and more of these dodgy deals. But we couldn’t do it without your backing.

Genocide – The Gaze From The Abyss
Thursday, 7 December 2023 — Media Lens
Left-progressive websites don’t always get it right. Take Media Lens, for example. In October, we discussed the corporate media invention of so-called ‘disinformation experts’. We lampooned the claim that although journalists are ‘working within profit-maximising, billionaire-owned, advertiser-dependent, government-subsidised media, they are nevertheless exposing “disinformation” without the slightest trace of bias’.

LIVE TODAY: Genocide enters third month
Thursday, 7 December 2023 — The Electronic Intifada
The Electronic Intifada is hosting a livestream today.
Please join us live on YouTube at this link.
1900 Palestine time / 1700 GMT / 1700 UK / 1800 CET / 11 am CT / 12 pm ET / 9 am PT
An Israeli air force colonel has said that Israeli airstrikes may have intentionally killed Israeli captives rather than let them be taken to Gaza. On the livestream today, Asa Winstanley will report on these latest revelations about what really happened on 7 October.
Nora Barrows-Friedman, Jon Elmer, Asa and I will be joined by Ahmed Al-Sammak, a regular contributor to The Electronic Intifada from Gaza, who is now in Dublin.
With people in Gaza extremely difficult to reach, Ahmed will update us on what he is hearing about the situation back home as Israel’s genocide enters its third month.
And Sewar Elejla formerly a doctor at Gaza’s al-Shifa hospital, will join us from Canada. Her most recent article for The Electronic Intifada is “Why were West’s doctors outraged about Ukraine but silent about Gaza?.”
With Jon, we’ll review the latest developments on the ground as Israel expands its invasion towards Khan Younis and Gaza’s south.
Please join us live on YouTube at this link.

Khan Younis faces a zionist holocaust
Tuesday, 5 December 2023 — Resistance News Network
🔴 Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine:
—
The city of Khan Younis faces a zionist holocaust with an American green light and direct planning.What the city of Khan Younis, in the southern Gaza Strip, experienced last night and early this morning is a zionist Holocaust in every sense of the word, with an American green light and direct planning, coinciding with zionist shelling that targeted all areas of the Strip.
The intensive, brutal bombing and the belts of fire targeting the city from all sides—which led to a large number of martyrs and injured, most of whom are children, women, and elderly, and the destruction of infrastructure and citizens’ homes—are attempts by this cowardly and defeated enemy to commit more massacres, and kill as many of our people as possible, deluding itself that it can achieve any accomplishment in light of its miserable failure to achieve any in the north.
The resistance in the southern Gaza Strip is heroically confronting the enemy’s attempts to advance on several fronts in the south, engaging in fierce clashes with it, and is ready to destroy its armored vehicles and finish off its soldiers, as is happening in the north and Gaza. Khan Younis of steadfastness and every place in the Strip will be a hell burning the zionist soldiers, thwarting the illusions of all the traitors, conspirators, and collaborators.
