Fabulous book launch yesterday of ‘Mental Health, Crime and Justice’ edited by @JDTreb and Sam Weston, a very timely and critical book on various areas of mental health and justice.
Was grateful for the opportunity to talk about state co-offending with @abcnews in the recolonisation of the #ChagosIslands and the forced eviction of the Chagossians #chagos#diegogarcia

@jeremycorbyn Thank you! The voices of Chagossians need to be heard and respected! They have been denied their human rights right from the start of this state co-offending case that rendered them homeless and invisible
Ready to talk to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation News about the state co-offending of the US and the UK over the Chagos Archipelago and the rights of Chagossians #ChagosIslands#BIOT
The bombs raining down on Gaza are in part being supplied by this country. I asked the Prime Minister if he would finally end this country’s complicity in war crimes. He refused.
Atrocities in Israel-Palestine didn’t start on October 7, 2023, of course.
Still, that day does mark a key moment, an acceleration point for atrocities.

@jeremycorbyn But a right to return where? Not Diego Garcia. The agreement although a historic decolonial milestone is flawed and still excludes the very people who were harmed by the UK and the US. https://t.co/qfvqk7SK0D
@TC_Africa@ColoradoStateU Really? How do the Chagossians win? Resettlement of Chagossians to some of the outer islands that were never their home - Diego Garcia was their home. #ChagosIslands

Chagossians demand inclusion! As the UK agrees to return Chagos to Mauritius, the community voices frustration over being left out of talks.

The #ChagosIslands were recolonised by the UK in collaboration with the US. The US maintains their control of the island of Diego Garcia, where most Chagossians called home. Their rights have been ignored, again. #chagos

The UK and Mauritius agreement - eye opening! The US is notably silent. The Chagossians cannot return home to Diego Garcia. And Marine Protected Area will continue around a naval base that causes the most pollution. #chagos#ChagosIslands https://t.co/kJQ378E2XP
A historic moment but it does not deal with the harms caused by the UK and the USA in their state co-offending - read my piece on this here

UK agrees to give up sovereignty of remote Chagos Islands to Mauritius, in historic deal over one of its last overseas territories https://t.co/RpGm3JcQ6w
Chagossians were not included in the decisions made by powerful nations that co-offended. Indigenous rights continue to be violated #Chagos#ChagosIslands#Chagossians
Chagos islanders living in Britain have told Sky News that they feel 'betrayed' after the UK decided to hand over sovereignty of the remote Chagos Islands to Mauritius following a decades-long dispute.

Yesterday, Mr. Netanyahu lied.
Israel continues to block food, water, and medical supplies from reaching desperate people.
Today, some 495,000 Palestinians face starvation.
We will not be distracted from the illegal and immoral policies of his government.
