'All 55 miners charged with riot at the Battle of Orgreave were found innocent. The cases completely collapsed in court in 1985 after it was revealed that the South Yorkshire Police had fabricated statements, committed perjury, and presented discredited evidence.' All credit to Michael Mansfield KC & Gareth Pierce. @Miners_Strike @DurhamMiners

This week marks 50 years since the racist murder of Gurdip Singh Chaggar in Southall. This was not an isolated incident. Between 1976 and 1985, there were at least 35 racist murders in Britain, a wave of violence that profoundly shaped South Asian political organising.

Right now, Holocaust survivor Stephen Kapos is at the Nakba Day demonstration in London. The 88-year-old has attended almost every demonstration in the last two year’s protesting Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

Stephen stands and sits with family and members of his group the ‘Holocaust Survivors & Descendants Against the Genocide in Gaza’.

He told us:

"Today, we commemorate not only the 1948 violent displacement and dispossession of hundreds of thousands of Palestinian Arabs during the creation of the State of Israel. But the unlawful occupation of Palestinian land and the ongoing genocide in Gaza.”

“Justice for the Palestinians must be demanded and fought for by peoples of the world to force their own governments to act to end Israel's genocide, occupation and apartheid.”

“That is why these marches have been attacked so much – it is the threat we pose to injustice. And the symbol of solidarity and hope we represent.”

If Polanski was accepting big donations from corporations & foreign donors,denying climate change, spent his youth goose stepping & bullying Jews or was currently supporting genocide he’d be getting an easier ride from our media.I don’t know what to do with that, it’s just sick.

A top police officer has been reported to a policing watchdog for making 'false and inflammatory statements' about Palestine marches https://t.co/FjdKqFVJk7

A fantastic day out in #Chesterfield on #MayDay26 celebrating #InternationalWorkersDay Thank you to the organisers & everyone who came to our stall to say hello & spread the word about the #OrgreaveInquiry https://t.co/pDwMUIRcrp

[Orgreave Justice @orgreavejustice]

Honoured to speak at the @gcnchambers Mark George Memorial Lecture. Mark was a valued & active OTJC ally. He represented miners in court during the 84/5 strike. His work about Hillsborough also helped set up OTJC. He would have made a brilliant contribution to an Orgreave Inquiry

There is a funding crisis in trade union education that needs to be sorted.

[Palestine Solidarity Campaign @PSCupdates]

"Every major step forward in this country has depended on people being able to gather, march and speak."

@KimJohnsonMP on why the government's latest attack on the right to protest must be opposed.

[Defend Our Juries @DefendOurJuries]

BREAKING: Mass arrests under the Terrorism Act in Trafalgar Square, as hundreds defy the ban on Palestine Action.

The police are knowingly unlawfully arresting peaceful protestors for holding placards which say:

"I oppose genocide - I support Palestine Action"

[Palestine Solidarity Campaign @PSCupdates]

Solidarity with all those protesting today. It is those who are responsible for arming a genocide who should be arrested, not those who are opposing it.

[Orgreave Justice @orgreavejustice]

CALL FOR EVIDENCE The Orgreave Public Inquiry formally launched by Government. Please contribute to the inquiry & circulate this information & print leaflet off if you can to give to people who don’t use computers & smartphones THANK YOU

Whose national interest? How does the British working class benefit from our military alliances with Israel and the Gulf States, which cost us £billions?

[Kate Flannery @KateBFlannery]

@haveigotnews Surely this is libellous about @jeremycorbyn It’s certainly not funny & is wrong. HIGNFY is really scraping the barrel of sick jokes posting stuff like this. It has to be removed. I hope Ian Hislop & Paul Merton oppose this snide lying remark. Another new low for the @BBC

[lan Byrne MP @IanByrneMP]

I’ve written again to the Cabinet Office regards my request for Norman Bettison’s knighthood be stripped.

Four months on, still no reply.

The IOPC report findings of potential gross misconduct and dishonesty cannot be ignored.

Families, survivors and campaigners deserve a response before the 37th anniversary.
