Did you know that if you were a British journalist in 1945, and tried to interview a holocaust survivor, you could have faced 14 years in prison for the crime of interviewing a genocide survivor?
Just kidding, that's the policy today for the genocide survivors of Gaza.
This is bullshit. The reason there is no growth is that capitalism has hit the limits of its expansion. Screwing down on the sick and the poor is all it’s got left in the toolbox.
The BBC’s political editor has written an article about the unravelling of Keir Starmer’s tenure.
The total numbers of times ‘Gaza’, ‘Palestine’ or ‘Israel’ is mentioned? Zero.
This is how propaganda by omission works.
Airports have the US flag cos too many Americans didn't know they were the foreigners when at passport control.
It's not importance, it's catering to your stupidity.
Shut the whole HELL UP, you disgusting war criminal.
You told Peter Mandelson you knew there was targeted violence against Palestinian women and children by 'israel'. But you knowingly chose loyalty to Labour Friends of 'israel'.
Instead of being a normal human being, you hunted NHS medics who opposed genocide and supremacy — including attacking me personally.
You threatened the medical regulator AND tribunal (@gmcuk, @the_mpts) to suspend me after I won my tribunal. You pushed for the IHRA definition to silence British healthcare workers. You significantly deepened the privatisation of the NHS.
You described the International Court of Justice (ICJ) genocide case against 'israel' as a 'DISTRACTION'.
The @guardian is despicable for trying to sanitise your complicity.
You do NOT get to pretend to be horrified by the genocide you participated in.
May you receive a punishment from God in this life and the next. May He trap you in hell with your 'israeli' funders, you zionist traitor to Britain and humanity.
@belfastDGM No difference or originality, same catchphrase as Starmer: "change" [is possible], he used to repeat. People have short memories and will vote for this.
Never forget @AndyBurnhamGM
1. Voted for the Iraq War
2. Supported privatisation of the NHS
3. Was a member of Labour Friends of Israel
He will be just another face of the regime.
JURY FAILS TO CONVICT MAJID!
'The state exhausted considerable resources trying to prosecute me based on emojis, duas (prayers), and posts online'
'I welcome the opportunity of a retrial because it means the evidence of what "israel" has done to Gaza the brutality the systematic destruction of an entire people will once again be placed before a jury of the British public' - @Majstar7
DROP THE RETRIAL.
FREE MAJID. FREE SPEECH. 🇵🇸🇬🇧
“With these bullets fired by the occupation army from behind the yellow line for amusement, dozens have been killed and injured inside their tents:
The child Ahmed was killed while having breakfast with his parents blood burst from his head and mouth.
Fatima was killed while breastfeeding her baby.
Hala was killed while writing her school lessons.
And many others.”
One part of the travesty of the Filton 6 actionists’ trial and retrial that has received less attention but is very important: Rajiv Menon, King’s Council, barrister for a member of the Filton 6, is being persecuted on a wholly unprecedented charge of contempt of court, carrying a punishment of up to two years imprisonment, for mentioning legal history and principles of law that allow juries to make independent decisions on conscience that Judge Johnson ruled out.
In the first trial’s closing statement to the jury, Menon pointed out the case that established this principle from 1670 and quoted the public plaque outside the Old Bailey (the central court in London) commemorating the case. He also reminded the jurors six times that the judge could not direct them to convict. The jury exonerated all the defendants in that first trial. Now they have been retried and convicted on some charges.
It sounds like Rajiv Menon is being punished for being extremely good at his job and for explaining the actual law relevant to the rights of the jury that this establishment judge close to the UK police and security services unethically suppressed to secure a political conviction to protect Elbit Systems. It is hard to avoid the conclusion that the Judge Johnson set up the rules and judgments precisely to engineer a conviction to circumvent the propensity of juries to acquit actionists. Then he plans to sentence them under extremely harsh terrorism laws by manipulating unjustly what jurors could know. Rajiv Menon initially disrupted that plan in the first trial. So now the judge and state are going after him.
We must support Rajiv Menon, a fantastic and principled barrister, and the actionists against the UK state’s punitive crackdown on those using democratic rights to protest and stop the Israeli arms industry from facilitating war crimes, illegal occupation and genocide. The corrupt and complicit political establishment in the UK has shown themselves willing to evacuate rights to free speech and assembly, jury trials, press freedom and a host of democratic rights for all citizens simply to protect Israel’s impunity and their own complicity in the genocide.
Support Rajiv Menon for defending pro-Palestine actionists and condemn what the UK courts and injustice system have done to jury trials and democratic rights!
@DailyMail Remember chat, when they say "ex" officer, he did it on the job & only got sacked afterwards. They want to create the doubt that he may have been a cop at one time or another. It's linguistic bollocks
The billionaire class are terrified because we're coming for them - we're going to tax them fairly and end rip-off Britain.
Let them attack. We're here to win.
