As the world remembers George Floyd this week, we look back at how protests ignited globally – including right here in the UK.

With the #PoliceCrackdownBill being considered by the UK Parliament, tackling racism & defending the right to protest is vital.

BREAKING: Israel approves unilateral ceasefire to end bombardment of Gaza Strip after 11 days.

Leaving 232 Palestinians dead including 64 children, 39 women & 17 elderly people & 1,900 injured

[Agnes Callamard @AgnesCallamard]

This is just devastating. Relentless. Entire families, children, doctors. Without warning, an Israeli air strike destroyed the four-storey building in the Gaza Strip where Dr Ayman Abu al-Ouf lived. A Covid19 expert. "His death is a catastrophe" https://t.co/jHZAfGDqA0

My speech 🇮🇱🇵🇸 Part 2
“If only we knew then what we know now is most often the reason we use to justify inaction during historic periods of appalling human rights abuses- so I’m putting on record what we know now so future generations can be clear that we knew yet failed to act”

[Sayeeda Warsi @SayeedaWarsi]

My speech - Part 1
The UK governments policy on #Israel and #Palestine
What we says and what we do!
“Each time we fail to act we embolden an increasingly right wing Israeli government with the message that there are no consequences to its illegal &morally indefensible actions”

[People Before Profit @pb4p]

The message is being heard. Let's keep up the fight. @simoncoveney @MichealMartinTD Expel the Israeli Ambassador now! @RBoydBarrett @Ginosocialist #BDS #GazaUnderAttackk #FreePalestine

1/ Hear the terror. This is Mohammed al-Kolak crying to his mother, Sanaa’, while both were buried under the rubble when #Israel bombed their house. She is breathing heavily, he weeps: mother, don’t leave me alone, stay with me mother, Arabs look, we under the rubble...
