I’m privileged to have played a minor role in this new article by my brilliant theory friend @TraynorCathie. Interdisciplinary #crimvol https://t.co/0kVkso15tx

Scotland’s First Minister has said plans for pro-Palestinian marches in London on Armistice Day should go ahead, saying he was “beyond angry” at the UK Government’s response

[Humza Yousaf @HumzaYousaf]

30 days of bombing, over 10,000 dead, including 4,000 children.

If you are not calling for an immediate ceasefire, you are frankly enabling the suffering of so many innocent people.

Scotland will be on the right side of history and of humanity.

Shameful that UK citizens trapped in Gaza dont even get a mention. Might be helpful if you give them at least a passing mention in your discussions.

They're trapped in a warzone & need you, Foreign Secretary, to demand a ceasefire, and the Rafah crossing opened to let them out.

"Your grief is my grief."

A powerful image as @ScotGovFM @HumzaYousaf took time to speak with, and comfort, the mother and family of Glasgow born Bernard Cowan who was killed this weekend in Israel.

@Anna_Soubry Are you supporting Labour simply to revive your career? Why don’t you call out the Shadow Cabinet for saying exactly the same as the terrifyingly inept Grant Shapps?

Western countries are backing genocidal #WarCrimes in #Gaza. That is, #WarCrimes of enormous proportion are committed in OUR name. If you haven't done so already, speak up, take a stance. #NotInMyName

[Clare Daly @ClareDalyIRL]

As EU "leaders" make clowns of themselves pretending to uphold international law while "standing with Israel" never forget Israel is a colony of Europe, started by Britain, backed by Europe & its other colonies. The "Middle East" is only "unstable" because we never leave it alone

Yesterday the national BAME Officer of Young Labour resigned too https://t.co/FjCdm80LQH

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

The British government is backing war crimes in Gaza - which means they're happening in our name.

Discussing that on @JeremyVineOn5 from 11.15am

[Chatham House @ChathamHouse]

There are fears across the Middle East that the region will become mired in a war that could draw in in the West Bank, Egypt and Lebanon’s Hezbollah, warns @SanamVakil (@CH_MENAP).

@DavidLammy @JohnHealey_MP Are you with Grant Shapps or the UN? Please clarify shadow cabinet position, thanks.

[Samuel Oakford @samueloakford]

Full statement from UN spox on Israel directing the evacuation of northern Gaza within 24 hours. UN says it would impact 1.1 million, impossible without "devastating humanitarian consequences" and "strongly appeals for any such order, if confirmed, to be rescinded."

[Haggis_UK 🇬🇧 🇪🇺 @Haggis_UK]

Listen to Mishal Husain challenge Grant Shapps(Defence Secretary) after he says the BBC aren't particularly interested in Hamas terrorists.

#r4today

[Dr Cathie Traynor @TraynorCathie]

Absolutely. And the Labour Party and Royal Family are no better

[Jolyon Rubinstein @JolyonRubs]

When our elected government vocally supports the forced movement of 1 million HUMANS whilst knowing full well that movement is impossible & that all but assured a mass slaughter then they are utterly complicit. Grant Shapps you are a disgrace. I fear our country has commited the must heinous crime of all. Standing by and seeking to justify the unjustifiable.

[Dr Cathie Traynor @TraynorCathie]

@Anna_Soubry @MishalHusain But Labour agree with him unless I’m mistaken?

[Dr Cathie Traynor @TraynorCathie]

@BBCr4today @BBCPolitics @MishalHusain Yes I get it @grantshapps You are aiding and abetting an apartheid regime’s crimes against humanity. Congratulations @MishalHusain for persevering with the question in spite of Shapps´ insults.

[Dr Cathie Traynor @TraynorCathie]

@DavidLammy But it hasn’t acted within international law has it? So do you condone the siege of Gaza or not?

[Dr Cathie Traynor @TraynorCathie]

@JamesCleverly @IsraelMFA @elicoh1 @ukinisrael @TzipiHotovely When will you stick up for the dignity and human rights of Palestinians in Gaza, when the UN and Human Rights Watch argue the siege constitutes a war crime?

[Dr Cathie Traynor @TraynorCathie]

@DavidLammy When will you stand up for the dignity and human rights of those in Gaza, after Human Rights Watch and the UN suggest the siege is a warcrime?
