"140 Labour MPs urge UK to ban trade with illegal Israeli settlements."
Leaving 262 Labour MPs who are NOT urging their Govt to ban trade with illegal Israeli settlements.
Please RT this until they ALL do - & the UK Govt finally does as International Law requires.
Thank you.
What has happened at the #2026WorldCup over the last 48 hours:
• Swiss footballer Embolo's visa was put under review and he was only able to join his team days later.
• Iraqi national team player Aymen Hussein was held for questioning for nearly 7 hours upon entering the United States.
• The Iranian national team spent days dealing with visa procedures at the U.S. Consulate in Türkiye. The U.S. only allowed them entry on match days. Fifteen members of the delegation were denied visas.
• Omar Abdulkadir Artan, named CAF's Best African Referee of 2025, was denied a visa. Despite travelling to the U.S. with a diplomatic passport, he was refused entry and sent back. FIFA announced that he will not be able to officiate at the tournament.
• The South African national team arrived in the United States much later than planned because part of the delegation was not granted visas.
• Members of the Senegal national team staff were forced to remove their shoes and subjected to lengthy searches, sparking accusations of racism.
• The Uzbekistan national team was searched with bomb-sniffing dogs and the footage went viral in international media.
• Some Scottish supporters, despite being eligible to enter the U.S. visa-free under the ESTA programme, had their travel authorisations revoked just days before departure.
• Many supporters who had already bought tickets and booked accommodation had their visa applications rejected, resulting in financial losses.
My question is why has Fifa allowed a homophobic country to host the world cup in 2022 and then allowed a racist country to host the world cup in 2026?
A game that is meant to unite all….
Ian Wright isn't allowed to say it because he is a Football Presenter but he is thinking it.
So I will say it for him, this World Cup is racist and it is disgusting.
Stop the ‘Great Israeli Real Estate Event’ taking place in London on 14 June. Palestinian land is not for sale. Such sales are illegal & unethical. This event should not be allowed to go ahead
Whilst the @NHS is contemplating a ban on its staff wearing anything that shows humanitarian solidarity with Palestinians...
... it continues to be ok with employing staff who actively took part in what the UN, human rights organisations & legal scholars describe as #genocide.
Over 38,000 women & girls have been killed by her ally, Israel, in Gaza and now @YvettecooperMP launches a “new international coalition to end violence against women and girls”, without mentioning Israel or Gaza. https://t.co/iZgWUeWMAE
.@faizashaheen: "Firstly on Blair, he should be held accountable for what he did with the Iraq War, when he lied to all of us, I just find it shameful that he can come out & expect to give us advice on anything"
Spot on.
Blair has no coherent plan for the country. His policy framework is support every US war, cut welfare and pensions, deregulate and privatise, continue anti-migrant policies.
A hopeless, failed project.
Labour has no coherent plan for country, says Blair

Hi @jamesmurray_ldn
Thought I’d let you settle in to your new role as Health Secretary. I repeatedly asked your predecessor @wesstreeting what action is being taken regarding Dr Eastland Staveley
He failed to answer
Perhaps you’ll do better
I’ll check in again tmrw 🙂
Queen Mary University researchers have identified 286 cases involving climate and Palestine-solidarity activists who were sent to prison for protesting for a total jail time of 136 years.
If this was in another country, wouldn't we call it authoritarian? https://t.co/4ndUyEfVe9
@PhilipProudfoot He also has no idea that some Christians pray like this as well. He is just clueless and I’m just sick of all this hate he carries and spreads.
This is long overdue.
It also needs to be ongoing and widespread. Now, "Black women are three times more likely to die at childbirth. Black babies are twice as likely to be stillborn."

This government stands firmly with the Jewish community, and we will not stop in our fight to confront and defeat the poison of antisemitism.
We will always take the action necessary to protect the public and uphold our values.

Bombed by Israel.
On Passover.
Iran is home to the largest Jewish population in the Middle East outside of Israel. They have lived there for 2,700 years.
This is who Israel bombed on the holiest night of the Jewish calendar.
