Keir Starmer has gone — but we will never forget the role his government played in the greatest crime of our time.
Today, I re-presented my Bill for an independent inquiry into Britain’s complicity in genocide.
Some people will spend their entire lives trying to tear down a woman they could never hope to become.
Michelle Obama walked into the White House carrying the hopes of little Black girls who had never seen themselves reflected there.
She carried herself with brilliance.
With grace.
With dignity.
She became a symbol of possibility.
And because America has always demanded that extraordinary Black women endure what others never have to, she has spent years facing insults, lies, and cruelty designed to make her smaller.
But history has already rendered its verdict.
When children needed hope, Michelle Obama gave them hope.
When young people needed a role model, she showed them what strength looks like.
When the world watched, she showed us that kindness is not weakness, that intelligence is not arrogance, and that going high is not surrender—it is power.
No conspiracy.
No slur.
No bitter man chasing attention will ever be remembered more than the woman who inspired millions.
Long after today’s outrage merchants are forgotten, schoolchildren will still read her words.
Young women will still follow her example.
And generations yet unborn will know that in a time that often rewarded division and cruelty, Michelle Obama stood as a testament to excellence, compassion, and the boundless promise of this country.
Some people leave behind outrage.
Michelle Obama left behind a legacy.
And legacy always outlives hate.
Flood the timeline with Michelle Obama.
Michelle Obama earned degrees from Princeton and Harvard Law, served as First Lady, became a bestselling author, and inspired millions around the world.
Today, WE post Michelle Obama.
Shops closed everywhere on County road because of this reactionary march.
How many people are losing a day's pay because people from outside of our community want to come and shout racist nonsense.
At today's pro-Palestine march, about ten gammon with Temu flags and AI lions tried to mount a counter protest.
Guys. You're in Liverpool FFS. Sit down.
Best to all opposing the far right on the streets today, like in Brighton, Belfast, Liverpool.

Outside Woolwich Crown Court this afternoon where four young people are facing extended prison sentences for terrorism when they weren't charged with terrorism 400 brave people are sitting peacefully to be arrested for pointing out that saving lives is not terrorism and they support Palestine Action in their attempt to end the manufacture of arms which are killing thousands and tens of thousands in Gaza and Lebanon
Scale of sentences on the 4 young people who took direct action against the arms supplier to Israel is truly shocking. To impose years of imprisonment for protesting to save lives in Gaza is unjust, especially sentencing on terrorist grounds they were never convicted of by a jury
I oppose GENOCIDE
I condemn the draconian sentences handed down to the Filton 4 today
I support Palestine Action
I am disgusted at the British elites in politics & media who are determined to support & enable GENOCIDE and to crush dissent
The sentences handed to four young activists for taking direct action at an Israeli arms factory are completely disproportionate and wrong.
They've been sentenced for a "terrorist connection" they were never charged with.
A clear miscarriage of justice and dangerous precedent.
Gut wrenching to see four young people jailed for direct action against an arms supplier to Israel.
Years in prison for protesting to save lives in Gaza, with 'terrorism' used despite no jury convicting them of it.
A truly dangerous attack on the right to protest.
In the UK, sitting peacefully opposing genocide is deemed terrorism whilst burning houses, rioting and targeting minority groups is considered ‘protest’
Just in case you’re wondering what kind of place the UK is, a few jewish ambulances being set on fire will bring about more COBRA meetings and hysterical mass media coverage than actual people being burned out of their homes by masked gangs rampaging through the streets.
An event is planned to be hosted in London proudly promoting the sale of land on illegal settlements in the occupied West Bank.
This is obscene. I've called on @MayorofLondon and @YvetteCooperMP to stop the event and for this govt to take real action on illegal settlements.
Richard Burgon just exposed the most glaring double standard in British policy
"Imagine if this weekend in London there was a Russian real estate event selling Ukrainian land. The government would ban it immediately.
Instead, we have an Israeli real estate event openly advertising the illegal sale of land in occupied Palestinian territories. The government recognizes Palestine. Why isn't this banned?"
Andy Burnham says he "can't judge" if the Israeli military's crimes in Gaza are a genocide.
The experts already have.
A UN commission, the International Association of Genocide Scholars, and leading rights orgs all agree: it's genocide.
Andy, why won't you call it what it is?
BREAKING: Paul Quinn sentenced to 24 years for raping a young mother in Salford in 2003.
Andrew Malkinson was wrongly convicted and served 17 years in prison for the same crime.
