I've been an activist for more than 20 years, in Denmark and all over the world. I've been shot at, had my bones broken by experts (and their clubs) and generally speaking experienced everything there is to experience in the hands of the tyrants’ bullies. https://t.co/J85Bhp9lAW
US lawyer and antiwar activist Dan Kovalik just had his devices seized and was interrogated by counter-terror police at Liverpool Airport
Meanwhile, Palestine solidarity activist Sarah Wilkinson is heading to trial on terrorism charges for a couple of Twitter posts, and refusing to give police her mobile pin
The Canary, one of the UK’s most doggedly antiwar independent media outlets, was just debanked by Lloyd’s
The UK recently refused entry to Hasan Piker and Cenk Uyghur, two of the most recognizable voices of the left wing of the US Democratic Party, on national security grounds
It did the same this month to US journalist Jeremy Loffredo
UK counter terror police detained and interrogated my colleague, Kit Klarenberg, seizing his devices, and grilling him about his investigative journalism. PM Keir Starmer’s Labour Together slush fund even hired a private intel firm to smear Kit and The Grayzone.
UK police raided journalist Asa Winstanley’s home and illegally seized his devices on suspicion of “encouragement of terrorism”
The UK Crown Prosecution Service attempted to prosecute journalist Richard Medhurst under the Terrorism Act, but failed
The list of journalists and activists repressed by the British regime goes on and on. And they have one thing in common: outspoken opposition to Israel’s genocidal agenda.
Who’s actually in charge in London?
Today, I asked the Foreign Office Minister to take action to halt Israel's illegal settlement expansion.
The best he could come up with was a completely baseless smear. What a total and utter disgrace.
All European Green parties are eager EU-supporters. They are eager supporters of NATO, eager warhawks and supporters of western establishment propaganda. They should take a clue or ten from their US counterpart. https://t.co/pbAnpxszcC
Israel is a Western colony. There is no way around this material fact. Its weapons, people, and the support it receives are all Western. The corporations and interests it serves are Western. Zionism itself is built on the template of European colonialism.
Our campaign is proud to be endorsed by Chris Hedges!
Chris Hedges is a Pulitzer-Prize winning journalist, author, and host of the online broadcast The Chris Hedges Report.
In his endorsement, Hedges says:
"I’ve admired and supported the revolutionary socialist Kshama Sawant since she was first elected in 2013 to the Seattle City Council. Her fierce commitment to the working class, her steadfast defiance of the billionaires who destroyed our democracy, and her anti-imperialist and anti-colonialist credentials have long made her a special target.
"The billionaire class has pumped millions of dollars into campaigns to defeat her and orchestrated a recall vote in 2021, which she fought and won.
"Her current campaign for Congress is part of our grassroots struggle to wrest power from the hands of the global ruling class. It is a campaign for free healthcare for all funded by taxing the rich. It is a campaign to raise the minimum wage to at least $25 an hour. It is a campaign to block landlords from extorting massive rents and evicting families. It is a campaign to drive politicians like Adam Smith, a tool of big business who is funded by and subservient to the Israel lobby, from Congress.
"In an age when we stand on the cusp of fascism, we cannot rely on the Democratic Party, whose betrayal of the working class and subservience to the rich gave us Trump.
"We need a political earthquake. We need a revolution. But it won’t happen until we stand with revolutionaries like Kshama."
The first terrorist attack in Monaco linked to Ukrainian mafia doesn’t surprise me. I’ve been to Monaco, many of the fancy cars had Ukrainian license plates. Yet Europe continues to send them money. I guess you get what you pay for.
Seven branches of Your Party opened this weekend, three today.
Stoke. Derby. Stockport. Durham. Hull. Suffolk. Dover.
Not talking shops. Not torturous meetings. Community hubs built by the people who live there, for the people who live there. That’s politics done differently
One of Starmer’s final gifts to Britain will be to further criminalise journalism & corrode freedom of speech. He is an anti-democratic authoritarian
A glimpse into the deep thoughts and experiences of a radical author during the pre-release period of a novel. A second author's word, really https://t.co/kkNmRRVu14
AIPAC and war profiteering corporations bankroll my main opponent, Adam Smith.
AIPAC was Smith's biggest campaign funder in 2024.
I'm calling for an end to all U.S. military aid to Israel, an end to all weapons and tech for genocide and imperialist war, and an end to the brutal occupation. I’m fighting to slash the war budget and instead fund housing, education, social services, and infrastructure.
VOTE BY AUGUST 4th.
