The High Court’s failure to grant interim relief @Pal_action means their proscription will officially come into effect from midnight tonight.

This ruling allows one of the most extreme escalations of authoritarianism in decades to proceed without challenge – for now.

It cements the UK’s descent into a police state where resistance to a genocide is criminalised.

Despite this, the fight is far from over. Legal action continues. Permission for a full judicial review will be sought in two weeks.

The movement to stop the genocide and dismantle the apartheid settler colonial Zionist entity will continue regardless!

Today, after 14 years, I’m resigning from the Labour Party.

Jeremy Corbyn and I will co-lead the founding of a new party, with other Independent MPs, campaigners and activists across the country.

Join us. The time is now.

In the last few weeks there have been serious and concerning developments regarding my sons’ father, Imran Khan’s treatment in prison. The Pakistan authorities have stopped all visits to him by his family and his lawyers. They have also postponed all court hearings. In addition to cutting off in- person visits, and in defiance of a court order, his weekly calls to his sons, Sulaiman and Kasim Khan, who are British and who live in London, were stopped on 10th September. We have received reports that the authorities have now turned off the lights and electricity in his cell and he is no longer allowed to leave his cell at any time. The jail cook has been sent on leave. He is now completely isolated, in solitary confinement, literally in the dark, with no contact with the outside world. His lawyers are concerned about his safety and well-being.

These actions come in the context of ongoing targeting of Imran’s family, as well as his party (PTI) members and supporters in an attempt to silence them and all political opposition in Pakistan. Imran’s nephew, Hassan Niazi, a civilian, has been detained in military custody since August 2023. More recently, Imran Khan’s sisters, Uzma and Aleema Khan, who have continued to speak out on his behalf, have also been arrested as they made their way peacefully to a demonstration and they are currently being held in jail, despite there being no proper or lawful basis for their imprisonment.

In June this year the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention found that Imran is unlawfully and arbitrarily detained and called for his immediate release.

 As a matter of urgency , we are calling for Imran Khan’s release, and for the release of his sisters and nephew as well as for his sons’ contact with their father to be re-established, so that they may have assurance first-hand that he is well and not being mistreated.

All those commentators; columnists; and comedians who were outraged by Brexit, and morally affronted by Trump, apparently completely unmoved at the sight of a teenager being burned alive in a hospital bed. A year of this, and still silence.

Israel is literally bombing aid trucks including World Central Kitchen but Netanyahu blaming lack of aid in Gaza on Hamas. And Congress applauding him. Sheesh.

[Rashida Tlaib @RashidaTlaib]

I will never back down in speaking truth to power.

The apartheid government of Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians. Palestinians will not be erased. Solidarity with all those outside of these walls in the streets protesting and exercising their right to dissent.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

Netanyahu’s standing ovation in Congress will haunt the US for generations.

The world has seen the US political elite applaud a mass murderer - a genocidal butcher - and they are not going to forget it, or forgive it.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

The BBC changed the headline because of your outrage.

Never stop fighting the dehumanisation of the Palestinian people as they are butchered with Western complicity.

Doing so is literally a matter of life and death.

[Ahmed Alnaouq @AlnaouqA]

I can't get over this picture. I can’t believe our new Foreign Secretary shook hands with the murderer of my family.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

What actually happened is the Israeli army set a dog on a Palestinian man with Down’s Syndrome, which savaged him.

They then left him to die of his injuries, and his decomposed body was later discovered by his relatives.

This headline is a disgusting travesty.

[Guz Khan 🥶 @GuzKhanOfficial]

You are a deplorable dick head @DavidLammy

How could any sane person vote for a party like @UKLabour when they stand with a man who has overseen the murder of over 16,000 children?!

Yesterday a 250 pound US made bomb was dropped on a school where kids were playing football, killing dozens.

[عبد @ABroNextDoor]

Loooool respect 🫡

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

Can someone tell me how many of the hundreds & hundreds of Republicans and Democratic pro-Israel members of Congress who shouted about Hamas and human shields have condemned this? 👇🏽

Anyone? Anyone at all?

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

While I welcome the Trump conviction, this also is undeniably true:

[Roshan M Salih @RmSalih]

If just one Israeli baby had their head blown off the mainstream media would be doing 24/7 coverage and would declare 40 days mourning. Presenters and reporters would be crying on air and politicians would be making pious statements.

Yet every day Palestinian babies are mutilated by Israeli bombs and there is no outcry.

Palestinian and Muslim blood is cheap in the eyes of the West. We are worth nothing.

Whitehall was completely shut down by protestors tonight in one of the biggest static protests I have ever seen outside Downing Street. Watch this….

[Palestine Solidarity Campaign @PSCupdates]

10,000+ people at Downing Street now for Palestine as Israel continues its brutal attack on Rafah.

Our govt and the Labour leadership have provided support for Israel as it commits genocide. They have blood on their hands. They must call for a #CeasefireNOW and #StopArmingIsrael
