Gary Lineker was born and grew up in Leicester, just like me, working class. He saw what I saw. He rightly champions refugees and highlights injustice.
When a Genocide is ongoing, he is right to speak up.
He’s not just Leicester’s favourite son, he is our national football hero
Gary Lineker’s biggest “error” was to care about the on-going slaughter of children in Gaza and call it such in public.
It’s the kind of “error” more people should make.
Many in our media are finally waking up to the unspeakable horrors that Palestinians are enduring in Gaza.
It is too late.
Israel inflicted these horrors because they were encouraged to do so, in part by a media class that failed to treat all human life with equal worth.
Last night, Israeli forces fatally shot Laila Mohammad Ayman Khatib, 2, while she ate dinner with her family in their home near Jenin. Soldiers shot four bullets through the living room window, one of which struck Laila in the back of the head.

Wow! Australia has introduced a new bill that caps the total amount billionaires like Elon Musk can spend on political parties to just $20,000.
This legislation will completely ban billionaires from"buying" elections in the country.
We need that here.
Fuck every single person who shamelessly invokes the memory of one genocide while condoning another with direct acts or silent consent — your bullshit racism will not wash, we see you, and we see your hypocrisy
"Those who suffered the Holocaust do not want to be involved in anyone else's genocide". A Jewish Holocaust survivor making the Jewish people proud again in the face of Israel's genocide of Palestinians.
“I saw in Auschwitz that if a dominant group wants to dehumanise others, as the Nazis dehumanise me, the dominant group must first dehumanise themselves, the same holds nowadays for Israel.
I am appalled about how hateful, how dehumanised, that they do not see any human aspect in any Palestinian anymore.
The Zionists have no right whatsoever to use the Holocaust for any purpose, they have given up everything which has to do with humanity and with empathy”

This is a dark, dark day for people around the globe. The world’s largest economy and most powerful military will be led by a dangerous, destructive demagogue.
The election of Donald Trump is a dark day for reproductive healthcare, the rights of refugees and the future of our planet.
As we speak, people are being slaughtered in Gaza and Lebanon. Our demands on our governments have not changed: stop enabling genocide and end all arms sales to Israel.
We are a global movement, made up of all faiths and backgrounds, united in our opposition to racism and hatred. We will never abandon hope in a more equal, sustainable and peaceful world.
Retired Jewish professor Haim Bresheeth, a child of Holocaust survivors and founder of the Jewish Network for Palestine, was arrested under a UK anti-terrorism law after speaking at a recent Palestine solidarity protest in London.
Labour's decision to raise tuition fees is a disgrace.
Government ministers might not be in Parliament today had they not benefited from free tuition. Now, they are lumping the next generation with even more student debt.
Young people deserve better. Abolish tuition fees now.
"What about university tuition fees then? Will you remain committed to scrapping them?"
Starmer "They're all pledges Andrew, so the answer to these questions is yes."
"So university tuition fees being scrapped will be in a Starmer manifesto?"
"Yes. That's why it's a pledge."
