@Independent What’s Colin Firth got to do with it???

[Dr Rahmeh Aladwan @doctor_rahmeh]

Claire Kerrison was arrested at 4:33am from her Brighton home for sending emails concerning 'israel's' genocide in Gaza to her MP Peter Kyle.

Four police officer raided her home on 17 June 2025. They seized her electronics. Held her for over eight hours with no one knowing where she was. Released her on strict bail. Charged her in late 2025 under the Communications Act.

The case dragged on for a full year. She faced multiple court hearings including not-guilty pleas.

The emails were described by those who read them as articulate and non-abusive— simply expressing horror at events in Gaza.

The man who triggered the police complaint? Her own constituency MP, Peter Kyle:

- Britain's trade minister responsible for arms exports to 'israel'.
- Long standing member and previous vice-chair of Labour Friends of 'israel'

Kyle has been accused of breaching the Ministerial Code by failing to declare his LFI membership in the official List of Ministerial Interests for 18 months despite the clear conflict.

The case was finally dismissed yesterday, with costs awarded to Claire Kerrison.

This is why British politicians who are paid/influenced by the 'israel' lobby must be banned from public office.

‘Inadequate measures’: Green Party MP Ellie Chowns pressed Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper why she did nothing to prevent an Israeli property event from taking place in London – one that included selling developments on illegal settlements in the West Bank.

Rights groups such as Amnesty International and Palestine Solidarity Campaign had warned the government about the event in the weeks leading up to it.

Chowns asked how the government failed to even prevent marketing of the expo, let alone stopping it altogether.

Your reminder that Israel is one of only four rogue states in the entire world that refuses to ratify the Chemical Weapons Convention.
Barbarians.

Two things not to forget about Boris Johnson as he kicks his pro Ukrainian shtick. He said Putin was right to annexe Crimea because the EU provoked it. And according to close pal Temerko, he only backed Brexit when Eastern European businessmen persuaded him.

With what?

[Ben Jamal @BenJamal48]

It is now verified that the event was marketing properties in illegal settlements. I presume you will now be retracting this statement, apologising, and condemning the synague for hosting the event.

@BellRibeiroAddy @UKLabour government does not represent the people of the UK. Their gloating over the recent rulings against the public’s right to raise their concerns and their right to protest tells you everything you need to know.

Shameful

We are now submitting our appeal against the "sisting" of the Scottish judicial review of the proscription of Palestine Action.

This is now absolutely essential. I am sorry but we desperately need donations to take this forward.

@mehdirhasan I always said they were a menace to society.

@ChristineH31362 @RachelRileyRR One of yours?

Hope the ministerial car was worth selling out the Palestinian people.

One of these people is an 83 year old Priest who held up a sign expressing her right to free speech. The other has decapitated his political enemies with a knife.

Guess which the UK government calls a terrorist, and which gets invited to number 10 for dinner.

@CraigMurrayOrg Calling for her resignation is as good a place as any of you ask me.

[X @RichWeldon]

@mehdirhasan @harriepw Is this the bit where we shout for her resignation.

[Dale Vince @DaleVince]

I’m with Livia Firth on this - what kind of person does adverts for a company involved in illegal settlements - stupid, ignorant or just plain bad. These illegal settlements (and lovely penthouses) are the result of a campaign of terror and great violence against Palestinian people. They are illegal under international law and immoral of course. Maybe Gwyneth can conjure up a candle that captures the smell of all of this.

@ukhomeoffice @ShabanaMahmood The old saying ‘power corrupts’ in action right there.

@Freddygray31 is too lazy to read the DCMS fake news report and all the other evidence of Vote Leave being fined £101,000.
Perhaps it has something to do with @MaryWakefield
being the wife of the corrupt liar - @Dominic2306 who broke electoral law.
