Absolutely revolting display of genocidal pride at London pride today. Soho now. Police tell me this is an official part of the Pride March and are aggressively trying to stop anyone with Palestine flags or badges getting close.

A senior British official visits Israel to deepen our tech relationship. The Palestinians are target practice for the high tech tools of repression which governments like our own want a piece of. Sickening. www.ynetnews.com/business/art...

‘For all the eyewatering numbers, the defence plan actually imposes austerity on the armed forces, whilst showering defence firms with huge revenues, sacrificing soldiers’ pay and conditions to benefit our wasteful military industrial complex’ 👇

Wes Streeting lied and lied and lied again. This 👇 is a brilliant explanation of how a Labour government handed part of the NHS budget to the most rapacious US president in modern history. A scandal. www.theguardian.com/society/vide...

Absolutely superb piece by Aditya Chakrabortty this morning: Starmer’s goodbye gift to Britain: a US pharma deal that could be more lethal than Covid Please take a look 👇 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

New figures from health experts show that Starmer’s Pharma deal with Trump will divert £45bn from essential services to pay Big Pharma - leading to more than 200,000 avoidable deaths of patients 👇👇👇

MPs criticising the US-UK Pharma Deal in the Commons this afternoon. This deal is a democratic scandal. @laylamoran.bsky.social up first saying the government has agreed to divert “an eye watering amount of NHS money to very large American corporations without a vote”

On this week’s CounterPower, I’m talking about the global fight against Big Tech Empires. It was such a pleasure to talk to Sofia Scasserra of @tninstitute.bsky.social and Anita Gurumurthy of @itforchange.bsky.social 👇   www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5Mx...

“A step into post-democracy, which is a tech bro fantasy, a world in which laws and regulations have been obviated” This is what the AI revolution looks like. And it’s coming to a town near you… www.theguardian.com/environment/...

You can give them everything they ask for… but it will never be enough. Starmer let himself be bullied by Trump and Big Pharma. The NHS will pay the price. www.thetimes.com/business/com...

Such good news from New York. Because of the genocide, support for Israel has become a vote loser. Just as Labour is discovering here. This is a seismic shift. We can finally see a day when justice for Palestine will be a reality. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/27/w...

Only a radical change of course on international policy will do. Our letter to Andy Burnham 👇

“If technology becomes the ultimate criterion, the human person risks being reduced to data, a cog in a machine or a commodity.” My summary of the Pope’s very good AI encyclical 👇 www.globaljustice.org.uk/blog/2026/06...

‘The UN says Israel has deliberately targeted Palestinian children, resulting in genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes’ Complicity with this 👇 is ‘decent guy’ Starmer’s real legacy. Not that most of our media will say it. But we know. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The end of the most duplicitous political project I’ve ever seen. Morally and politically bankruptcy, Starmer was always doomed. The next leader should remember the role Starmer’s complicity in genocide played in his downfall. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/ck...

Terrible news. Another light goes out. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

European countries shouldn’t follow Britain’s capitulation to Trump. As Sally Gainsbury from Nuffield Trust says: “The 'UK playbook' here means health systems will spend more, but will get less health benefit for their populations” www.reuters.com/legal/litiga...

Israel has killed at least 47 people in Lebanon today, advancing its forces into the sovereign country and vowing to keep hold of illegally occupied territory. Britain has still not instituted an arms embargo. www.aljazeera.com/news/liveblo...

Britain caved and so Big Pharma + Trump turn their guns on Germany. I hope they put up a bit more resistance than Starmer’s government. www.reuters.com/business/hea...

This weekend marks 20 years since I took Roger Waters to the West Bank. He was inspired by seeing graffiti on Israel’s Apartheid Wall, then just being built, which read “we don’t need no thought control.” 🧵

“The involvement of fossil fuel leaders in this conference underlines what this reactionary international stands for. They are not interested in building an economy which works for the majority.” I’m in DeSmog 👇 www.desmog.com/2026/06/18/m...

“If Europe really wants to be sovereign, it needs to free itself from Silicon Valley’s ideology, not just its tech.” 👏

A humiliation for Trump and an unmitigated disaster for Netanyahu. But don’t forget the lives this war has taken. And we will all feel the pain for a long time yet. Remember who is responsible. How are these war criminals Britain’s ‘allies’? www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/6/...

People ask: ‘why don’t countries just refuse to pay ISDS fines.’ Here’s why. They get hounded. In this crazy case, ISDS investors are following Spain’s football team around the World Cup to try to seize their assets (inc deposits for hotel rooms). Insane www.bfmtv.com/economie/int...

Absolutely brilliant first day of our youth summer school today. The next generation of activists 👇

With the World Cup underway, listen to me chatting to the brilliant @outsidewrite.bsky.social and Shaista Aziz about football and politics and the role of sport in beating facism. m.youtube.com/watch?v=1MMX...

A packed room for our Scottish activist conference. I’m overwhelmed by the amount of data centre activism going on in Scotland. Stop the Big Tech barons ✊

Under the judge’s ruling “The suffragettes, the Greenham Common women and the Trident Ploughshares movement would also have been treated as terrorists.” But none of them had to contend with Keir Starmer’s government. What a shameful day. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

“We cannot afford public money diverted away from our communities to corporations” campaigners respond to ISDS threat over British Steel nationalisation 👇 www.globaljustice.org.uk/news/we-cann...

The government has no clue how ISDS works. Which makes it criminal they’ve actually expanded this system. You don’t get to decide the compensation! The corporate lawyers do. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

New ISDS threatened against Britain over takeover of Jingye Steel. The Chinese corporation wants more than £1bn. ISDS is a major threat to our sovereignty. Yet the government is still signing up to more of these corporate courts. www.reuters.com/world/uk/jin...

In case you missed last night's excellent webinar on the growing crisis in the MIddle East and its economic impacts, it's now available to watch online: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hdp6lTmosc0

Can’t wait for this. If you’re in Scotland, there’s still a few tickets left, but it’s filling up fast….

NEW: We’re launching the Trump World Cup Chaos Tracker to compile a record of how Trump’s racist, violent policies - coupled with FIFA’s corruption - are impacting this tournament. 1/3

As the World Cup approaches, I’m taking about the politics of football and big sporting events. With the amazing Shaista Aziz, Daniel Norona, and Chris Lee 👇 m.youtube.com/watch?v=1MMX...

Now Trump comes for Europe’s health services. Learn from us, don’t give in. As Diarmaid from @justtreatment.org says “The UK struck a terrible deal. Permanent weakening of drug price controls that were the envy of the world … In return for bugger all” 🧵 www.politico.eu/article/us-d...

Farage previously indicated he’d be “steering well clear” of Liz Truss’ CPAC GB. Now, he’s headlining the thing. His MAGA paymasters clearly had a word.

Settlement goods are illegal. They are part and parcel of apartheid and ethnic cleansing. Banning these products and investments in their production, is basic stuff. It isn’t that ‘difficult’ @YvetteCooperMP, and even if it was, it’s your duty to do it. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Britain is conducting a full review of Palantir’s NHS contract. The government is under huge pressure now. Keep it up. And don’t stop at the NHS. These villains shouldn’t be anywhere near any public body. www.reuters.com/business/hea...

The government’s piecemeal approach to dealing with Israel’s state-backed dispossession and persecution of Palestinians is grossly insufficient. Banning all trade with Israel’s illegal settlements would be effective and has wide support. Why won’t it take action? www.reuters.com/world/uk/uk-...

This is far far too weak. The crimes the UK and others are concerned about are the policy of the Israeli government. Sanction the state. As a minimum, ban settlement produce, which is by definition illegal. www.gov.uk/government/n...

Horrific. Yet we still protect this country diplomatically, sell weapons and trade on preferential terms. Sanctions Now www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/6/...

Farage will be attending Liz Truss’s comeback gig. I tell @desmog.com “Farage likes to pretend he’s on the side of the ordinary working man, but he’s really a 1980s yuppie, with out of date Thatcherite ideas” www.desmog.com/2026/06/08/n...

They are monsters. Sanctions now. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

Great that Superdrug has stopped selling Ahava cosmetics from illegal settlements. But settlement trade should be banned by the UK government. With my comments here. news.sky.com/story/superd...

My response is in @middleeasteye-rss.bsky.social “Streeting was a member of the cabinet while this horror was unfolding. It’s not enough, given the scale of the inhumanity, that he had confidential discussions with his boss, he should have demanded a different policy, or resigned.” 🧵

Brilliant to hear from Greta Thunberg at the Tech for Palestine conference today. She’s damning on climate activists who’ve chosen to ignore Palestine. There’s no neutrality in the face of genocide. You speak out… or you help the oppressor.

Welfare not war - end the war on Iran. Looking forward to speaking at this online @cnduk.bsky.social webinar on Tuesday 👇 cnduk.org/events/welfa...

BDS is working. Companies pulling products and MPs demanding an end to settlement trade. We need to go much further but be on no doubt, this is long term and big and mirrors the anti apartheid struggle. news.sky.com/story/superd...

“Germany’s blind support for Israeli crimes cost Germany its seat on the UN Security Council. As it should.” www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/202...
