“UK BOOSTS SAUDI SUPPORT AFTER IT KILLS YEMENI CIVILIANS” by John McEvoy in Declassified UK @uk_politics@Declassified_UK@mastodonapp.uk@DeclassifiedUK@independent-media.co.uk@UKLabour@mastodon.cloud@palestine@fedibird.com @Palestine@masto.ai@palestine@lemmy.ml @iran@iraq@mastodon.social@palestinenews@gts.liberated.press@Yemen@mastodon.social “Britain is expanding its aerial refuelling of Saudi fighter jets to include bombing raids on Yemen, despite a major spike in civilians being killed in these airstrikes. Wes Streeting initially said the UK would only provide air-to-air refuelling for Saudi jets patrolling the kingdom’s skies to ward off drone and missile attacks on airports and oil infrastructure by Yemen’s Houthi movement. The defence secretary is now letting British fighter jets join those patrols, as well as providing refuelling for Saudi airstrikes on ‘Houthi military targets in Yemen’” https://www.declassifieduk.org/uk-boosts-saudi-support-after-it-kills-yemeni-civilians/ #Press #SocialMedia #Government #UK #Labour #Streeting #Saudi #Yemen #War #Houthi #Warmonger #WarCrimes #Civilians #imperialism #Racism #AnsarAllah

Forget Andy Burnham's fancy words, and tiny measures on energy & buses. Follow the money. ££££. The big money is for war. In the next decade, #Burnham, #Healey & #Streeting are pouring over £100 billion extra into weapons. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2026/jul/22/increased-defence-spending-uk-economic-growth-wes-streeting-military-andy-burnham This money is not for "#defence". There is no defensive use for destroyers or nuclear submarines or aircraft carriers. These are weapons of attack. Money that should be invested in people and in infrastructure is being squandered on war. #ukpol
