Dear @edsheeran,
The Israel/Palestine conflict is NOT a war.
A war is a conflict between two armies.
Gaza has no army and no military equipment.
Every school, park, hospital, bank, office, nursery has been bombed.
The entire population is displaced.
IT IS A GENOCIDE!!!
ICC CHIEF PROSECUTOR @KarimKhanQC: “Oppose Israel and we will go after your family — You have been warned. Rubio, McConnell sent me a letter… what’s liberating is accepting mortality.”
If you're a man at all Andy Burnham you'll deproscribe Palestine Action
And free thousands of pensioners, retired vicars, peers and war heroes from terrorism charges and 14 years in prison for holding up a piece of paper

BREAKING: The Supreme Court has granted permission to appeal the Court of Appeal judgment on the Palestine Action ban.
We will be arguing in the Supreme Court that the ban is unlawful, as it is disproportionate to free speech and the right to protest.
The fight continues.
It is within the Prime Ministers power to scrap this proscription and end these dystopian scenes for good.
There is simply no excuse in a democracy for a crackdown in support for protest groups like this.
A few weeks ago, the new Defence Secretary, Wes Streeting, said there were "serious and substantial allegations of war crimes" in Gaza.
International Law prohibits states from exporting weapons if they know the arms will be used to commit war crimes, genocide, or crimes against humanity.
Will we see an arms embargo? Or just more of the same?
This is Massive 🗿

🇮🇷 Araghchi at 7:00 PM: "Look at how prosperous all these countries like Syria, Afghanistan, and Iraq became after they trusted israel and the US."🔥🔥😂
No one exposes Donald Trump better than Araghchi 👏
There is a lot of myth-making about Starmer's leadership, much of it unchallenged.
It is hard to support the claim Starmer 'saved the Labour party' when he got 560,000 votes fewer than Corbyn in 2019.
2024 was a Tory collapse, not a Labour surge.
(via HoC Library).
Jeremy Corbyn should sue them for libel. I'd happily promote a crowdfunder and I'm sure many with lots of money would contribute.
Campaign Against Antisemitism is supposed to be a charity and it should certainly lose its charitable status if it loses a court case on this.

I keep thinking about @MRMIKEYGRAHAM from Boyzone.
When the documentary came out, I remember seeing the pain in his eyes. It was a look I recognised straight away. The kind of pain that doesn’t need words.
For some reason, I felt compelled to reach out to him. He didn’t know me from Adam, yet he took the time to reply. That small act of kindness has always stayed with me.
I’ve seen some of the photos and clips from the Boyzone shows this weekend, and it genuinely made me smile to see him getting his moment. His light. His stage.
Maybe I’m wrong, but I still see that same pain in his eyes at times. Mikey has spoken openly about his mental health struggles, and I really hope these shows have brought him something positive. Some closure. Some peace. Maybe even the chance to finally move forward carrying a little less weight than before.
The truth is, I’m not even a massive Boyzone fan. Yet I’ve always found myself rooting for him.
What I do know is this. The comments about his appearance, his weight, or whether he “looked the part” completely miss the point.
Getting on that stage at all took courage.
Standing in front of thousands of people when you’ve openly battled your mental health is no small thing. It doesn’t matter whether it was three songs or thirty. Sometimes just showing up is the victory.
That deserves respect, not criticism.
I doubt he’ll ever see this, and he certainly doesn’t need me defending him. But people who carry their struggles publicly while still finding the strength to keep going deserve a bit more kindness from the rest of us.
Well done, Mikey. I think a lot of people are quietly proud of you.
Why's Wes Streeting suddenly pretending to care about the atrocities in Gaza, nearly three years too late?
1. Because it's his only hope of beating Burnham to become leader.
2. Because his silence on Gaza nearly cost him his seat at the last general election.
Don't be fooled.
Corbyn was an MP for 32 years until he was elected Labour leader in 2015.
Number of accusations in the media of antisemitism from 1983-2015 = 0
Number of accusations in the media of antisemitism from 2015-19 = 11,251

@HudaAmmori@ravelled This is foul.
The British legal system is dead. All for 'israel'.
Can't imagine what the activists and their families are going through right now.
May God lift this obscene injustice.
