@OMuirighSols Outrageous that longtime activist Sue Pentel should be arrested and bundled into a police van like a dog cage, apparently for putting a sticker on a bank machine to condemn the slaughter of 52,000 people - many of them helpless children - in Gaza, by the Israeli forces.
Civilians in Gaza are under fire again, with 506 people killed since Tuesday - including women and children. Western governments are complicit and profit from this mass murder -- sign for a complete stop of arms deliveries to Israel. https://t.co/RGPJA0axbn
Award-winning author Arundhati Roy strongly criticised the US and Israel’s ongoing war on Gaza and Lebanon in her acceptance speech for the PEN Pinter Prize at a ceremony in London earlier this month
BREAKING: At this very moment, the Israeli military is massacring family after family in North Gaza in a war of extermination. So hundreds of Jews and friends are shutting down the New York Stock Exchange to demand the US stop arming Israel and profiting from genocide.
It is an unspeakable tragedy that innocent children continue to be killed by Israeli forces in Gaza, with another 20 children becoming the latest victims of this conflict.
A school being used as a shelter in central Gaza was shelled, killing at least 22 people, including 15 children.
In a separate incident, five children were reportedly killed by a drone strike while playing on a street corner in northern Gaza.
We simply cannot accept the violence that Palestinian children continue to face as normal.
We are continuing to urge the UK government to use their power and influence to secure an immediate, definitive ceasefire, and suspend all arms sales to the Government of Israel.
@MartinOBrien17 @liamherrick Congratulations Liam on your appointment to head IHREC at a crucial time and best wishes for what will be a difficult but very important job.
@DonnchaLaw Deeply disappointing that the Government is dropping its promised anti-hate speech legislation at the very time when we have seen and heard the hatred that is being whipped up by hate speech that is going unchecked.
Big congratulations to Thomas McCann his conferring today 👏
A number of Pavee Point workers will also be graduating with their BA in Social Science Community and Youth Work 🎉
120 child welfare groups, faith bodies & trade unions are calling for the 2 child benefit cap to be scrapped. This would lift over 300,000 children out of poverty. In Parliament next week I urge the government to set out a swift timetable for this & give hope to many families.
Alongside 18 peer organisations, we call on all permanent and elected members of the UN Security Council to enforce the ICJ orders regarding Israel's actions in Rafah, Gaza. Immediate action is required.

At least 40 children, women and men are confirmed dead in Rafah after an Israeli airstrike last night on tents housing those forced to flee within Gaza.
How many more red lines must be crossed?
Our appeal to EU leaders meeting now:
#NoMoreRedLines
Op-Ed: there exist no moral arguments that can justify the continued sale of weapons to Israel by states that respect the principle of the universality of human rights.
