"The sanctions against Cuba are disgusting and disgraceful. Oil must be delivered, medicines must be delivered, and these sanctions must end. The people of Cuba should be allowed to live their own lives and determine their own future – not Donald Trump."
Jeremy Corbyn, today.
Forget all the b/s about Hamas, it was Israeli terrorists who were raping, killing babies and civilians, as their own officials now admit. https://t.co/Juc2cirJFa
The Filton 25 Trial represents a turning point for the rule of law and against necrocapitalism.
ELBIT is involved in the commission of heinous crimes in Palestine (see my report Economy of Genocide). It is also one of the most exportable tools of Israel's model of democracy.
Criticising a public figure – who isn't even Jewish – for backing Israel during its genocide may be many things but it most certainly isn't "antisemitism".
Yet our police, politicians and media keep making this rudimentary mistake. Almost like this isn't really about Jew hatred
My deepest condolences to the family of Henry Nowak, a young life taken and a tragic loss to society.
The far right want to politicise this murder and divide our communities further. Farage called for 'cold rage' and that's exactly what we got, riots on our streets and not for the first time.
Farage has built his career off the back of demonising Muslims and now his attention is turning to the Sikh community.
We can't allow racism to tear our country apart, we must stand in solidarity.
The brass neck of this revisionist lickspittle.
You and the rest of that cabinet of cowards fell in line because it served your ambitions at the time.
A genocide armed and facilitated.
Palantir has no place in our NHS.
Patient safety is paramount. We must end all ties with Palantir and remove it from our NHS well before the 2027 break clause.
Jewish councillor - suspended by Labour for vociferously condemning Israeli war crimes in #Gaza - defected to the Greens.
Now elected leader of Lambeth Council in London - the first time Labour has lost Lambeth in living memory.
“We failed to intervene… we failed to apply enough pressure…”
This audacious moral grandstanding is quite something.
Emily Thornberry, like most Labour MPs, failed to condemn the genocide when Israel was making it crystal clear what was coming.
We won’t forget.
Emily Thornberry has today said the government has let down the Palestinian people, and allowed Israel to act with impunity.
The audacity.
Here she is in October 2023 refusing to condemn Israel cutting off power and supplies to Gaza.
Don’t let these people rewrite history.
It’s begun: The Great Rewriting of History by the politicians, journalists, media commentators who stayed quiet over Gaza to keep climbing the greasy pole - while a handful of us who spoke-up were smeared, abused, or fired.
As @Hamza_a96 says, don’t let them do it:
The Filton 25 are a group of direct actionists who targeted Elbit Systems, Israel's largest weapons manufacturer, to stop the genocide in Gaza.
They were all acquitted of the most serious charge of aggravated burglary and were released from prison.
However, following the retrial of the first 6, four of them were remanded back into prison and are now facing sentencing on 12th of June with a possible terrorism connection.
This is the first time in UK history that pro-Palestine activists will be sentenced for terrorism.
📅 12th June
📍 Woolwich Crown Court
⏰ 10am–5pm
Join the mobilisation and show that direct action is not terrorism.
Write to court and demand that Judge Jeremy Johnson be removed from the case.

The Mandelson scandal must lead to a fundamental change in the political establishment's treatment of the brave women and girls who speak out about horrific abuse at the hands of men like Jeffrey Epstein - and the treatment of those who support, enable, or allow those abuses.
Many MPs tell us that the current state pension age is 'unsustainable'. Which is odd, really, given that they can claim parliamentary pensions as soon as they turn 55.
Israel having killed every child, every sheep, every dog and cat. Having destroyed every tree, every road, every building in southern Gaza
Is now bulldozing the remnants.
Every gravestone, every sign that anyone ever lived here.
It's a holocaust
