Keir Starmer will be remembered as a disastrous, despised prime minister who facilitated genocide.
That is it.
And one day he will be made to answer for his role in drowning Gaza in oceans of blood.
Five police officers arrest an RAF veteran in a wheelchair for holding a piece of paper.
So weird how @elonmusk@Nigel_Farage & all the free speech warriors are silent on this?
Paul Laverty's post-release statement shows his legal training and deep humanity. He must have run rings around them in the police station. Not a hint of terrorism, violent intent or antisemitism on display here. Surely the charge cannot stand.
The deliberate and relentless killing of Palestinian journalists is sickening beyond words — and is a desperate attempt to silence the truth about Israel’s ongoing crimes against humanity.
Shame on all those who empowered Israel to murder with impunity.
Entire news crew wiped out: 2 journalists + 2 cameramen.
Killed by Israel which has killed more journalists than died in WW1, WW2, Vietnam, Afghanistan & Yugoslavia combined.
If arrests for placards were taking place in Russia and China, our media and political class would be vociferously condemning the clear authoritarianism and draconian repression.
Apparently it’s fine when it’s in Britain though.
Britain's media elite has normalised a genocide, and they are now normalising a completely and utterly deranged attempt to silence those opposed to that genocide.
They have decided there will be no consequences, and their careers will survive intact. In the end, they won't.
Sure, the facilitators of genocide run the British state.
They can use the state machinery to crush opponents of genocide.
They bet that no government will ever be elected which enforces the Genocide Convention, which criminalises complicity in genocide.
They'll lose this bet.
i think the palestine action arrests will end up being one of the things starmer is remembered for. images of quakers, the elderly and the disabled arrested on “terrorism charges” while a genocide rages on - says everything you need to know about the people at the top of govt!
According to YouGov, almost half (45%) of British voters say their government should recognise Palestine as an independent state, while only 14% disagree. To make this about "British Muslim voters" is a pretty disgusting and conspiratorial take, Andrew.
So little, so late, President @vonderleyen :
After you have given Israel 21 months a free pass in Gaza, it will take more than words to prevent Israel from completing its genocidal mission and overt ethnic cleansing campaign. And even more, to repair what's left of the EU credibility.
🚨 This morning we turned the street outside Labour Party Headquarters in London into Jabaliya camp in Gaza.
Listen to Ahmed Masoud talking about what the Israeli army did to his neighourhood and family.
