Left: Gary Linekar, "(Police) carting pensioners off the streets for carrying a placard, it's utterly absurd what we've become"
Right: Yvette Cooper and Keir Starmer's legacy is a disgrace, will you end this shambles @andyburnham or will you make it part of your legacy too?
“We are having people being arrested before they've said anything—people who were just making the way for poems. If this was happening in Russia or China, people would be outraged.”
Speaking outside Westminster Magistrates Court, Tim Crosland of Defend Our Juries detailed the chaotic police intervention targeting peaceful solidarity actions for Gaza. Over 1,500 people—many of them pensioners—were listed to appear on charges under anti-terror legislation for holding signs, only to face court administrative delays.
When organizers set up a simple step stand to allow poets to share readings and songs for Gaza, police swept in, arresting two people and placing them in painful rear hand-restraints under anti-terror and serious crime provisions. Shortly after, a facilitator was arrested simply for speaking to the crowd without amplification.

ناشط أمريكي غاضب من رؤية طفل فلسطيني بلا أطراف:
"الإساءة لإسرائيلي غير قانونية بينما الإساءة لهذا الطفل بهذا الشكل قانوني ومسموح به. اللـ.ـعنة عليكم، الإسرائيليون يدفعون أبنائنا للقيام بالعمليات العسكرية نيابة عنهم، ونحن نسجل الآن الملاحظات عليهم وسنحاسبهم".
Andy Burnham talks of "criticising" Israel.
Which bit is his government going to "criticise"?
Deliberately shooting children in the head?
Murdering 1,600 medics?
Deliberately starving a civilian population?
What Netanyahu does to the Jewish people is exploit its suffering, use our name, and distort our religion all to achieve his own selfish nationalist agendas.
Benjamin Netanyahu does not speak for Jews. Stop saying “the Jews” and “the Jewish state” in the same breath, they were never the same and never will be.
Former BBC Middle East correspondent Tim Llewellyn writes of the BBC being a "prime mover" in the "tidal wave of lies and misreporting" about alleged anti-semitism in Corbyn's Labour, and of Israel's financing "a political, racist libel that made impossible proper debate about foreign affairs running up to two general elections".

Tony Blair is the living embodiment of what happens when political office becomes a down payment on future plunder. Ejected in 2007 by his own MPs as a massive liability, he bequeathed Britain a wild casino economy primed for the 2008 crash. And when the British economy crashed and burned, Mr Blair kept quiet while honing his skills at securing power by other means.
His first job, after his ejection from 10 Downing Street, was as the West’s Middle East envoy, with a supposed emphasis on Gaza. It took six painful years for Mr Blair’s tenure to prove a failure so profound it amounted to active complicity in Israel’s ethnic cleansing, in Palestinian erasure, and in paving the ground for the ongoing genocide.
Soon after, the Chilcot Inquiry demolished Blair’s Iraq lies, exposing him as a liar, a chancer and a war criminal responsible for countless corpses of Iraqis, but also of British soldiers.
Then came Blair’s real innovation: the financialisation of the ex-premiership itself. The Tony Blair Institute, fuelled by £130 million from Oracle's Larry Ellison—coincidentally, the largest individual donor to the Friends of the IDF—became a shadow state, brokering governance contracts for autocrats and companies like Palantir that weaponise AI to produce mega-death abroad and full-on surveillance of Western populations.
Now, in May 2026, this corporate fixer issues a 5700 word tantrum demanding that Labour embrace Trump even more than Starmer already has, denounce what is left of Labour’s betrayed Green New Deal, and trash the remnants of workers' rights. This is not the wisdom of an aging statesman. It is the frantic squirming of a man fearing his grip on oligarchic power might soon wane and whose entire post-10 Downing Street existence depends on preventing the many from ever reclaiming what the few have plundered.

FORMER BRITISH AMBASSADOR SENDS MESSAGE TO POLITICAL PRISONERS FOR PALESTINE
“For the rest of their lives, we will be proud of them”.
Former diplomat, author, and human rights campaigner Craig Murray sends a message to the political prisoners currently in jail across the United Kingdom for their alleged direct action carried out on behalf of the Palestinian people outside the Royal Courts of Justice in London, England.
Israeli soldiers caught on vid raping Palestinian
Victim suffered ruptured intestine, severe injury to anus, lungs & broken ribs
Israelis rioted for right to rape, ministers defended rapist, 1 rapist became celebrity
All charges dropped
This isn't just Ben Gvir this is Israel
Jewish Youth's Message at the Nakba 78 Rally in New York
This is the way it was in Palestine before the arrival of Zionism — Muslim and Jewish Palestinians lived side by side, while their children played together in the same courtyards.
Zionism and Israel are the greatest threat to Jews and to all humanity.
Breaking: Israel has. just raided vessels of the Sumud flotila off Cyprus. Many more are continuing their journey to Gaza. Time to rise up against Israel's assumption that it has a god given right to the Mediterranean, to violate Int Law at will, to complete the genocide. .
Prominent Journalist Max Blumenthal confirms UK ordered a total media blackout to hide a rigged trial against Palestine Action activists.
He reveals the presiding judge is literally a former lawyer for MI6!

Wonderful words:
'She stands before the world—alone, unarmed, armed only with law and language and a rare courage—and she says what the centrists will not say, what the foreign ministries will not say, what the editorial boards will not say. She says: "This is a genocide. And we are watching it happen." Do not tell me that is hyperbole. Do not tell me the term is contested. She has not used it lightly. She has used it as a physician arrives scientifically at a diagnosis—not to wound, but to warn. Not to inflame, but to name.'
IN PRAISE OF FRANCESCA ALBANESE
There is a question that visits me in the small hours, when sleep will not come and the mind turns over old stones. The question is this: “What would I have done in the 1930s, on the morning after Kristallnacht?"
Not what I say I would have done. Not what I hope I would have done. But what would I actually have done—when the trains began to run, when the neighbours grew quiet, when the cost of decency became the loss of everything?
Most of us, I think, would have done little. Not from malice. From fear. From the soft, creeping conviction that someone else will speak, that the situation is complex, that we must be 'reasonable'. Lest we forget, the ordinary is the extraordinary's alibi. And how we have clung to that alibi! How we still cling to it!
And then, every once in a terrible while, someone appears who does not cling. Someone who steps forward when others step back. Someone who speaks the name of the thing when everyone else is busy naming something else.
Francesca Albanese is that someone.
She stands before the world—alone, unarmed, armed only with law and language and a rare courage—and she says what the centrists will not say, what the foreign ministries will not say, what the editorial boards will not say. She says: "This is a genocide. And we are watching it happen."
Do not tell me that is hyperbole. Do not tell me the term is contested. She has not used it lightly. She has used it as a physician arrives scientifically at a diagnosis—not to wound, but to warn. Not to inflame, but to name.
And for that, they have come for her. Oh, how they have come for her. Smears. Investigations. Vicious editorials. Frozen bank accounts. Dispossession of the only apartment she had ever owned. The machinery of the respectable turned to crush her. Because the respectable cannot abide what she represents: a mirror held up to their complicity.
Let us, once again, travel back to the 1930s. Back to the few who stood up when the trains began to run laden with Jewish people.
There was Aristides de Sousa Mendes, a Portuguese consul in Bordeaux. He defied his own government. He signed thousands of visas, by hand, for hours, until his fingers bled. He saved more lives than Schindler. And he died penniless, disgraced, erased.
There was a German officer in Warsaw named Wilm Hosenfeld. He hid a Jewish pianist in the rubble. He did not save thousands. He saved one. But that one—Władysław Szpilman—carried the memory. And memory is "the only haven from which we cannot be expelled."
There was Raoul Wallenberg. There were the villagers of Le Chambon. There were the anonymous, the quiet, the furious few who said: “Not on my watch.”
Francesca Albanese is their heir. Not because she carries a gun. Not because she hides refugees in her basement. But because she does something equally dangerous in a world that has perfected the art of not seeing. She sees. And she speaks.
She does not speak as a diplomat. Thank Goodness she doesn't! Diplomats have given us the language of "there are arguments on both sides" and "restraint" and "proportionality." Diplomatic language is the perfumed grave of moral clarity. No, she speaks as a jurist. As a human being. As a woman who has looked into the abyss and refused to call it a "complex geopolitical landscape".
Edna O'Brien once described a character who "had the recklessness of those who have already lost everything worth losing." Francesca Albanese has not lost everything. She has her dignity, her office, her voice, her family. But she has calculated the cost of speaking truth to power. And she has decided that that cost is infinitely less than the cost of silence.
What is that cost? Let us name it. She has been called antisemitic—she, who stands on the ground of international law forged in the ashes of Auschwitz and the fires of Nuremberg. She has been called a conspiracy theorist—she, who cites every source, every footnote, every UN resolution. She has been called naive—she, who understands better than most the machinery of realpolitik.
These accusations are not arguments. They are the spittle of the threatened. Because Francesca Albanese threatens something very precious to the powerful: the right to commit atrocity without being named.
Friends, the 1930s did not arrive with jackboots and pogroms on day one. They arrived in small increments. With "reasonable" restrictions. With "proportional" measures. With the silence of the respectable.
We tell ourselves that we would have been different. That we would have been Sousa Mendes. That we would have been Wallenberg. But most of us, I fear, would have been the neighbours who later said, "I didn't know."
Francesca Albanese knows. And she refuses to pretend otherwise.
So let us praise her. Not with statues or awards she does not seek. But with something harder: with our own refusal to look away. With our own voices, raised in places that are safe for us but dangerous for her. With our own bodies, if it comes to that.
A brave woman, who was injured while demonstrating outside a US nuclear military base in 1982, the infamous Greenham Common, had told me that "the heart is a hunter for what it cannot have." But I say the heart is a hunter for what it will not lose. And what we will not lose is the memory of those who stood up when standing up cost everything.
Francesca Albanese is standing up now. In our time. In our name. Under our indifferent sky.
Let us stand with her.
Not tomorrow. Not when it is safe. Now.
[Extract from a speech in Athens on Sunday 3rd May 2026]
Happening NOW: Over 100,000 ANTI-ZIONIST Jews gathered in Upstate NY for Lag BaOmer, celebrating and publicly denouncing Zionism.
Today we honor one of the greatest Torah authorities the Jewish people were blessed with, Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai.
Photos of the crowd and banners to follow.
Let’s say it clearly: “Zionism is the antithesis to Judaism.”
🇬🇧 Famous British comedian Rowan Atkinson said:
“I feel ashamed on behalf of the United Kingdom for allowing Israel to besiege two million people in Gaza, cutting off their electricity, water, and medicine, and then claiming to defend human rights.”
The ‘antisemitic terrorism’ narrative around the Golders Green incident on Wednesday has now collapsed. The alleged assailant was mentally unwell with previous convictions for stabbing, dating back years, and he had left psychiatric care in recent days. One of his three victims (yes three, not two!) was a Muslim. While suffering an apparent mental health crisis, two Met officers kicked his head in IDF-style and then the Met justified it like a Netanyahu press conference.
We’re supposed to believe this man was an ‘antisemitic terrorist’ in the pay of Iran, motivated to attack Jews because of pro-Palestine protests and chants. This is a total sham and deeply insidious. The mainstream media, politicians, and the Metropolitan Police are colluding with Zionists to exploit this attack to further erode freedom of expression and assembly, and to expand Jewish militias in London.
Welcome to the complete Zionisation of British politics!
