Keir Starmer may be resigning the office of Prime Minister but his legacy of total complicity in Israel’s genocide in Gaza will follow him forever.

BREAKING: HSBC fully withdraws its shareholdings in Israel's biggest weapons producer, Elbit Systems.

In the previous quarter, the bank dumped 96% of its shares in Elbit.

After sustained direct action, HSBC has now ended all of its investments in Israel's Elbit Systems.

In the USA in 1943 they produced a film 'Don't be a Sucker' about fascism.

It perfectly explains Nigel Farage, Donald Trump, Elon Musk and the entire Right.

One of my most popular articles ever included a long extract from a powerful closing speech by barrister Rajiv Menon during a Palestine Action trial in January. In the end, the jury refused to convict the six defendants.

Menon is now on trial for that closing speech – for reminding the jury that they had a 350-year-old right in law to follow their conscience in reaching a verdict, even if it meant defying a direction from the judge to convict.

Paradoxically, Menon joked in his speech that, because of that earlier legal principle, the judge, unlike his counterpart in 1670, could not lock them, the jurors, up were they to choose to follow their consciences.

Instead, the judge is seeking to lock up the barrister. Does 2026 qualify as an improvement on 1670?

It is believed that this is the first time a barrister has been tried for comments made to a jury in his closing speech. That should serve as a potent reminder of just us how authoritarian the current political moment is, and of how quickly long-established legal rights are being dismantled to protect British collusion in genocide.

Read my article – and the part of the speech for which Menon is being tried – here: https://t.co/RyDHG3Iz81

Academy Award winning American actress Susan Sarandon revealed that her agency terminated her contract because of her public calls for a ceasefire in Gaza.

Sarandon said she was dismissed from the agency that represented her specifically due to her participation in protests, her outspoken stance on the war in Gaza, and her demand for a ceasefire. She added, “I was dropped by my agency because I took part in marches and publicly expressed my position on Gaza and called for a ceasefire. It has even become impossible for me to appear on television.”

The world's two rogue states, Israel and the USA, have started a war not against Iran but against the whole world. We stand with Iranians, with Humanity, against the notion that Israel and the US can bomb anyone their fancy takes them to bomb. https://t.co/Xn8bo7q5Xc

The British called her a terrorist. She says the Irish right to resist was valid.

Former IRA volunteer Martina Anderson tells @Dena why she believes armed resistance against British rule was justified during The Troubles in Northern Ireland.

[Hannah Barker @hanhanBarker]

@candi4changeSW utterly outrageous racist language - completely out of order. Solidarity Candi, and all Black members and supporters, from Independent CEC candidate in SE. this dreadful on all and any level. As a party we should not tolerate this in any circumstance.
