I'd never condone violence against a police officer - this is utterly dishonest.
The jury weren't judging them on a terrorism offence. This is an awful sleight of hand.
The creeping encroachment of terror laws onto protest & removal of our juries should worry all of us.
(1/3) Garden Court North members express solidarity with Rajiv Menon KC, a highly respected silk and member of @gardencourtlaw, who faces prosecution for contempt of court following his closing speech in a high-profile and politically sensitive criminal trial.
Every football fan, whoever they are, should be able to watch their team in safety, *except, of course, for Palestinian football fans whose genocide we funded, killing them and their players and turning their stadiums into internment camps*.
People from all walks of life — including many British Jews — are protesting against your government’s complicity in genocide and standing in solidarity with Palestine.
Conflating Israel’s genocide in Gaza with British Jews is deeply inappropriate and dangerous. Shame on you.
There is a shameless attempt to use yesterday's antisemitic atrocity to suppress the movement against Israel's genocide.
So let's just be clear.
We are not going to to stop protesting UK complicity in the mass slaughter of Palestinians.
This is real leadership by @ZackPolanski
Well done to all those who have tirelessly campaigned for the recognition of Palestine — an inalienable right of the Palestinian people.
Next, the UK should recognise the genocide in Gaza, end its complicity in crimes against humanity, and stop arming Israel.
To the children, students and families from Gaza arriving in Scotland for medical care:
You are welcome here. Our communities will stand by you as neighbours and friends, and Scotland stands with the people of Palestine. 🏴🇵🇸
Imagine if a sitting Democratic member said ‘we need to stop pretending Judaism is compatible with American values.’ It’s insane that Congress focuses so much on calling out antisemitism while sitting members engage in open & unpunished Islamophobia, the most normalized bigotry.
Literally none of this is true and this woman needs to get help. We have to stop allowing members who are experiencing mental breakdown to continue to work without getting them the help they need. This is an emergency, let’s help her before she hurts herself or one of us.
Israel bombed a hospital.
Rescue workers and reporters rushed to recover the dead and the wounded.
Israel bombed the hospital again. Live on TV.
Read that again.
Our government’s legacy will be its complicity in crimes against humanity. End all arms sales to Israel, now.
Today, over 1000 orphans at the Al-Wafa Orphan Village in Gaza graduated school. They were full of emotion as there were no parents to attend the ceremony because Israel killed them. Thank you the wonderful adults that still take the time during genocide to teach children and make them feel loved.
