Did not know a Somali-Finnish sister was on the Flotilla!
So proud of her and her efforts! 🇸🇴 🇸🇴
Somalis have a long and proud history of supporting Palestinian liberation.
Two of my constituents have been detained by Israel, following the illegal interception of the Global Sumud Flotilla.
I have written to the Foreign Secretary to ask what steps the UK government is taking to secure their immediate and safe release.
“Close your eyes and put your passports on the table.” The most moral army in the world raided and abducted activists (armed with baby formula) on the Global Sumud Flotilla, who were trying to do what their governments failed to do — break the siege and help Gazans.
The media is refusing to show the millions of people who have taken to the streets in solidarity with Palestine & their fellow citizens captured aboard the Sumud Flotilla.
THIS IS A CALL TO ACTION:
GLOBAL PROTEST
GLOBAL SHUTDOWN
@JasonReidUK Equating Jews with an out of control child murdering army is antisemitic and dangerous .....many many Jewish people are very much against the genocide and what the IDF are doing ...that statement is like many we are seeing today shocking and wrong. X
Things are different this year. Since 1970, we haven’t watched a genocide live-streamed in 4G into our living rooms.
Silence is complicity — we all know that.
Taking the side of a genocidal regime while attacking words instead of crimes is shameful and cowardly.
Shame on Glastonbury.
@JasonReidUK Imagine someone at Glasto said 'kill the Russian Army'. There would have been no gvmt reaction or calls for punitive action from gvmt & MPs. So what's acceptable is now dictated by government and MPs.
BE AFRAID - BE VERY AFRAID!
@JasonReidUK Imagine being so scared that your business will be harmed because someone said something that upset a foreign government and your own government decided to look into it.
What the flying fuck is going on here when genocidal Israel is able to terrorise UK citizens in the UK?
Corbyn could theoretically become PM by leading his new left-wing party, with millions of supporters across the country.
Corbyn’s new party can stand candidates in every constituency.
He has the ability to reach at least to opposition to begin with .
@Muqadaam OUR CHILDREN WILL BE ABLE TO VOTE IN THE NEXT GENERAL ELECTION....AND SO WILL THEIR PEERS.
THE YOUNG WANT TO INHERIT A WORLD WORTH LIVING IN.
WE NEED GENUINE AND HONEST PEOPLE TO REPRESENT US...
NOT CHARLATANS WHO WILL DANCE FOR THE HIGHEST BIDDER.
The government's plan to proscribe Palestine Action is part of a wider crackdown on protest. Instead of taking steps to prevent genocide, the gov wants to criminalise people demanding justice for Palestinians. Sign the petition to oppose this plan: https://t.co/566vQSqo2j
The government plans to proscribe the non-violent direct action group Palestine Action. This repressive step will further undermine all of our civil liberties and democratic freedoms. Join me using @PSCupdates action to message your MP to oppose it. https://t.co/arf1DjYPhS
