With our new president comes a New World Order. A guided tour through dramatic shifts in political thought and power struggles that inform our future.
One person's sacrifice futile in a world that condones genocide
As Israel’s campaign of genocide heads into its sixth month, I’ve heard many people take solace from the knowledge they are “standing on the right side of history” by speaking out about the atrocities and condemning the United Kingdom government’s complicity in the ethnic cleansing being carried out in Gaza by Benjamin Netanyahu’s terrorist regime.

Save the planet by population reduction-yes or no?
Save the planet by population reduction-yes or no? What will be the result if populations fall? Saving the planet has become an excuse for just about every “official” action and for official “non-action.” It is used to validate economic coercion on every level of every nation.

Call for a ceasefire Starmer's only hope of restoring credibility
Good or bad, for better or worse, one thing we can all be certain of is that life goes on. And right at this moment I’m thankful I have the good fortune that mine is centred in a country that is not under siege by the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) bombing hospitals, schools, universities and all other possible places of refuge for the tens of thousands of Palestinians being ethnically cleansed from Gaza by Benjamin Netanyahu’s terrorist Likud regime in Jerusalem.

How Wales plays a part in Israeli campaign of genocide in Gaza
In the summer last year I remember hearing about Senedd Economy Minister Vaughan Gething blowing the horn about an advanced United States-based engineering company expanding its presence with a new centre of excellence at Cardiff Airport, St Athan, in the Vale of Glamorgan.

Children being slaughtered while faint-hearted sit on the fence
The genocide in Gaza has gone from north to south over the past five months with the southern city of Rafah, where more than a million people are sheltering, the latest target in Israel’s ethnic-cleansing mission to destroy the heart and soul of the Palestinian enclave.

False flags flying in Middle East to inflame a global catastrophe
I woke up yesterday to the heartbreaking news that the United States and United Kingdom had been stepping up their efforts to foment the outbreak of World War III by mercilessly bombing targets in Iraq and Syria. The weather outside sounded frightful and in Cardiff later in the day Wales’ Six Nations campaign would kick off against Scotland at the Principality Stadium.

We can lead a cause to Waters but you decide whether to drink
You know how it is sometimes, when you wake up from a dream and there’s this earworm wiggling around in your brain? Well, since last Saturday’s humanitarian crusade in Cardiff in solidarity with the people of Gaza suffering mercilessly at the hands of the Israel Defence Forces (IDF), I’ve had a slightly modified snippet of music from Pink Floyd’s 1979 concept album The Wall ringing in my head.

Humanity or hegemony... now’s the time to make that decision
Since the first Cardiff humanitarian crusade in solidarity with Palestine in 2024 took place at the start of the year I’ve found it difficult to write about those that have followed due to sheer frustration that the genocide is still ongoing, now into its 114th day, and because my former employer MediaWales and its Wales On Sunday publication continue to totally ignore the marches against it, something that would have been unthinkable during my 30 years as a journalist.

Israel's fairytale of a defence flounders at Hague hearing
With just two more days to follow in January, almost a twelfth of 2024 has already passed… but, after 114 days of continuous bombing, Israel’s ethnic cleansing of Gaza shows no sign of abating, despite last Friday’s United Nations International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruling that Benjamin Netanyahu’s government in Jerusalem has just one month to convince the judges its actions in Gaza do not amount to genocide.
