‼️ The stages of UK diplomacy on Palestine are:
1. Israel has the right to defend itself.
2. Something appears to have happened to some Palestinians.
3. We are waiting for a court to tell us whether it was a crime.
4. No, not that court.
5. Or that one.
6. Actually, Judge, this is for ministers to decide, not the courts.
7. Ministers are deeply concerned…
8. …deeply concerned about members of the public protesting about what is happening.
9. While we establish who did the concerning thing, we will continue the arms-export carve-outs.
10. Strong decisive action is now needed - Ban a few pro-Palestinian protest groups and arrest a few grannies for terrorism.
11. We are aware of concerning reports about the concerning thing.
12. We have raised the concerning thing with the people accused of doing it.
13. Britain’s commitment to the rule of law is resolute.
14. Israel has the right to defend itself. Return to stage 1.
🚨𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: Some members of FIFA's Executive Committee are calling for the resignation of President Gianni Infantino and are preparing a lawsuit against him.
This comes after revelations that FIFA allegedly bent the rules to favor a player and a country.

Scandalous.
18 months in arbitrary detention. No charge. No evidence. Torture attested by his lawyer, marks visible on his body.
And instead of covering this, @BBC amplifies Israel's unproven claims casting doubt on a hostage doctor.
>BBC's journalism in the time of genocide.
Israeli soldiers are reportedly torturing Dr Abu Safya --a pediatrician, for God's sake!
Without strong pressure on Israel, these may could be his last hours.

Take our fourth poll.
4. Do you think that Britons who have served in the Israeli military during the Gaza genocide should be investigated for involvement in possible war crimes?
Please repost after voting.
I do not need Andy Burnham’s permission to call out Israel’s genocide of Gaza.
The Hague already called it. Geneva already called it. The human conscience already called it.
The Labour government is the last body in the room still asking if it’s allowed to notice.
I am having a drink this evening with a friend in a Chiswick pub. Two policemen have just come into the pub and asked me to step outside. I have stepped outside and they have threatened me because I tweeted about a councillor banning seating outside pubs in Chiswick. They admit on video (watch it!) that I did not break the law at all. They came to threaten me. To warn me off tweeting about councillors and the council. This is modern Britain. This is the police state. Please, please, please watch this video. It does involve me using very bad language, but this has got to be seen. Police coming out to threaten someone who hasn’t committed a crime. I’m fuming.
I am gravely concerned by reports of a severe deterioration in the condition of Dr. Abu Safiyah.
We reiterate our demands for his release, along with all other doctors being held without charge.
