@RishiSunak You are vile. You really don’t understand the sentiments of the British people. How can you call a peaceful protest against a genocide ‘a hate March’? Disgusting. They are protesting because YOU useless politicians are doing nothing to stop innocents being murdered. Shame on you
@SuellaBraverman You are a vile despicable woman who really doesn’t understand the sentiments of the British people. How can you call a peaceful protest against a genocide ‘a hate March’? Disgusting.
@GalGadot You didn’t have to be so one sided. You could have supported Israel by also condemning the horrific violence and killing of innocent CHILDREN. No one will forget who didn’t stand up for those innocent children. That you did nothing with your millions of followers. Shame on you
@GalGadot Where are your posts condemning the GENOCIDE being committed by your precious government ? Surely you can’t deny the images you’re seeing, or let me guess, you’re just not even bothering to look or educate yourself because you’re so darn brainwashed
