[Zarah Sultana MP @zarahsultana]

80 years ago, the US dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima - a crime against humanity that killed tens of thousands in an instant.

We remember the victims and survivors, and recommit to building a world free from nuclear weapons.

We also remember Gaza, where Israel has dropped over 85,000 tonnes of explosives: five times the power of the atomic bomb, on a densely populated strip of land with six times the people.

More than the Blitz. More than Dresden.

This is not “self-defence” or “war”. It is genocide.

The Montgomery Express -Who
I love the way this drifts into the ears, weightless & with very little to keep it tethered, as vocal highs soar to the stars!
Tho floaty this song is not, for there is nothing light in a heavy heart!
