3,000 people including Legal experts have signed a formal complaint to the presiding judge in a Palestine Action case.

It's the first time in British legal history that protestors face sentencing as terrorists, without being convicted of terror offences.

Andy Burnham says he "can't judge" if the Israeli military's crimes in Gaza are a genocide.

The experts already have.

A UN commission, the International Association of Genocide Scholars, and leading rights orgs all agree: it's genocide.

Andy, why won't you call it what it is?

"There is no one else coming to save us, if you have an opinion about what we should do with the country, you have to get involved”

Green Sarah Wakefield says she doesn’t want to just focus on "Westminster culture" but the “fundamental problem” of “massive inequality”

Siân Berry, MP for Brighton Pavilion, discusses why she is leading a parliamentary campaign against Palantir on LBC this morning.

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

Non si parla più di Palestina? FALSO.

Forse certi media e politici hanno voltato pagina, ma il popolo italiano resta vigile, come testimoniano i presìdi che da oltre un anno tengono viva la coscienza collettiva.

Lieta di incontrarli il 19 giugno. Il silenzio non è un'opzione.

We're going to have to repeat a lot that many Jewish people don't support Israel's genocide.

Criticism of the Israeli Government and their war crimes has nothing to do with who is or isn't Jewish.

To conflate them like this is both harmful and antisemitic.

From the UK to New York, the real fightback is against the multi-millionaires and billionaires who have stolen our wealth and power - and the media that protect them.

Zohran gets that.

And we do too:

The IDF has been accused of horrific war crimes in Gaza by the UN Human Rights Council & Amnesty International.

It is just common sense that those involved in war crimes should be held to account.

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

The genocide seems unstoppable,
Necrocapitalism seems invincible- but they are not!

All we need is UNITY. COORDINATION. PERSEVERANCE.

Keep Protesting. Striking. Boycotting. Litigating.

Not just once.
All the times needed till the Apartheid ends and the system which fed it too.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

For the past two and a half years, the UK government has armed a genocide as it was livestreamed around the world.

Now, some politicians are pretending they have always been against the crimes they enabled.

Too little, too late. Your complicity will never, ever be forgotten.

New figures show Reform raked in £9m in 3 months, with Farage still in the hotseat for his £5m "gift" from billionaire Chris Harborne.

£4m came from billionaire Ben Delo, who was convicted for facilitating money laundering in the US, but pardoned by Trump.

We're all going to ask ourselves - what did we do to stop a genocide?

👉NEW -- UK media fails to disclose defence industry ties of most military commentators

by Amy Killingbeck & @iainoverton

Former military officers are weighing in on wars and defence spending without public awareness of their commercial interests

[Andrew Feinstein @andrewfeinstein]

Is David Taylor wilfully stupid or just a compulsive liar, like his boss? However often apparatchiks parrot the nonsense about defensive support only, this government & it’s leading members will face justice for war crimes & genocide. And weaponising antisemitism as part of that pathetic attempt at avoiding justice is only going to make it more difficult to fight actual antisemitism & all racism

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

Israel announces that surviving Palestinians will be expelled from Gaza.

No headlines.

No statements of outrage from politicians.

Silence.

[Yanis Varoufakis @yanisvaroufakis]

Now that Gaza lies in ruins—shattered, like a beloved face after a long brutality—Israel moves with a terrible confidence to the next act: The act of leaving every soul there not merely wounded, but permanently disabled. Injured, sick, hungry, homeless, without work, without hope. This is not war’s collateral damage. This is design.

As my friend Gideon Levy writes—and he knows, he knows—this is the prelude to expulsion. Think of it: a society without teachers, without doctors, without social workers, without engineers, without clerks. That is not a society. That is a holding pen. A slow erasure. And when nothing functions—no school, no hospital, no office, no heart—then it becomes ‘easy,’ they tell themselves, to scatter the people to the four corners of the earth. Like seeds from a broken pod, except no soil will take them.

We must name this. Not with rage alone, though rage is honest. But with the cold, clear tears of recognition: they are making life impossible so that departure becomes the only ‘choice.’ And the world watches, adjusts its spectacles, and calls for restraint. Restraint! There is no restraint in a slow drowning.

South West Water fined £1.853m for supplying contaminated drinking water.

SWW is a serial offender, loses 107m litres of water daily to leaky pipes, dumped sewage in rivers for 407,006 hours.

Still trades. No exec fined, charged. People fleeced.
