This is a really grim decision alongside Cenk.
People often talk about dangerous road we'd go down under a Reform government - this is another clear warning we're down there already.
A Labour government doing everything possible to silence criticism of the Israeli Government.
Israel is wiping out entire civilian neighborhoods in Tyre, Lebanon, violating Security Council resolution SCR 1701, ceasefire agreement, and international law with absolutely no consequences.
This is another war crime and the ICC remains silent.
This research by Queen Mary University of London should be a wake up call for the UK government and judicial institutions:
286 political prisoners in Britain, held in relation to their activism for Palestinian rights or against fossil fuel.
Prison sentences for acts of direct action or civil disobedience (which were once rare) are now being imposed with increasing length and frequency.
In Great Britain.

British MP Kit Malthouse unleashes on the UK Government: No ceasefire in Lebanon. Daily double-tap killings.
"If this is what they do to British & European citizens on camera... what are they doing to Palestinians off camera?"
"We're all fed up with the gaslighting!"
🧵Civil society in Finland🇫🇮 has been clear: they oppose any policy allowing nuclear weapons to be stationed in the country, something the Finnish parliament is currently considering.

At least 15 cases of sexual assaults, including rape.
Shot with rubber bullets at close range.
Tens of people’s bones broken.
While the world’s eye is trained on the suffering of our participants, we cannot emphasize enough that this is a mere glimpse of the brutality israel imposes daily on Palestinian hostages.
Don’t let up. Statements of condemnation are not enough. This moment must be seized by people worldwide to apply the necessary pressure to end this colonial violence. Pressure officials. Escalate boycott and divestment tactics. Organize direct action.
“Please, if this can be a lightning rod moment, let it be that … join us wherever you are and rise up so that we can end this occupation, end this colonialism, end this violence.”
Free Palestine NOW.
Met chief Rowley must resign!
The Met under Rowley's leadership has been conducting a campaign of political policing - openly lying about the intentions of Palestine protestors, giving favour to the far right, and systematically downplaying incidents of Islamophobic hate crime.

‼️Coming back from China, Donald Trump declared that he and Xi Jinping, also discussed a world free of nuclear weapons. “We brought it up, the denuclearization. The concept of that is something that would be very good.” Time to turn that thought into action‼️#NuclearBan 😅
Human rights activists were kidnapped in international waters and tortured — and some people’s problem is that the images got out. Israel’s impunity must end. No sanctions, no accountability.
There should be no surprise at behaviour of Ben-Gvir. He , like Netanyahu & his regime, has long ago lost any sense of decency & humanity.What should shock us is our own government continues to sell arms to Israel, refuses to sanction the regime & hasn’t kicked out its ambassador
Jeremy Corbyn joined the Nakba Day march in London to commemorate the 78th anniversary of the Nakba and stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people. Corbyn warned of Israel’s plan to drive Palestinian out of their land and settler violence in the occupied West Bank.
A massive mobilisation of unity for Palestine and against the far right today with hundreds of thousands of people joining us on the streets of London today. We are the majority!
The documentary that the BBC refused to air - Gaza: Doctors Under Attack - won a Bafta last night.
The documentary shows the targeting, detainment and torture of medics in Gaza by Israeli authorities. The decimation of Gaza’s healthcare system including the detention of healthcare workers is central to Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza.
Amnesty awarded Gaza: Doctors Under Attack at the Amnesty Media Awards last week. The work of everyone involved in making this documentary and fighting for it to be broadcast shows the importance of journalists willing to speak truth to power.

The Prime Minister says his government has got "the big political decisions right". Let's go through them.
The government chose to cut welfare so it could spend even more on weapons and war.
The government chose to demonise the sick and disabled.
The government chose to keep children in poverty until it was dragged kicking and screaming to finally scrap the two-child benefit cap.
The government chose not to bring water into public ownership, not to tax wealth and not to implement rent controls.
The government chose to arm Israel and participate in genocide.
The government chose to let the US use British air bases for its war crimes in Iran.
The government chose to let Palantir get its hands on our NHS.
The government chose to scapegoat migrants and refugees for its own failures.
Poverty, inequality and genocide. Those are the government's big decisions. And that is how this government will be remembered.
Extremist is the death and destruction that Benjamin Netanyahu government brings on a daily basis.
Extremist is them introducing the death penalty for Palestinians.
Extremist is this apartheid, genocidal Israeli Government that our Government shamefully supports.
Keir Starmer thinks a retweet should disqualify someone from leading a political party, but that appointing the best ‘pal’ of the world’s most notorious paedophile, as Ambassador to Washington, shouldn’t.
Be serious!
