Why they are not talking about Italy 🇮🇹

Politicians, the police and the media want millions of us to imagine we are alone in grieving the slaughter of Gaza's children – and that our grief is shameful. They need us to succumb to their lies. Read my latest here: jonathancook.substack.com/p/no-one-in-...

What changed Shabana Mahmood?

I'm Jewish. I'm also Mancunian. Every other national party leader was interviewed by Laura Kunesberg during their conference. Maybe the BBC thought as someone who also supports Palestine - I had nothing to say? Let's keep growing: join.greenparty.org.uk

Shabana Mahmood protesting for Palestine hmmm 🤔

The English far-right is a mass of dumb-as-f*ck people, innit.

'"Focusing on the issue of demilitarization implies that #Israel 's genocide is justifiable because of some pistols and rifles and homemade explosive devices that remain in the hands of the Palestinian resistance... You're talking about a nuclear-armed country...' www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Elp...

"What a breath of fresh air. A capable leader with a distinct political, personal and religious identity. He’s wielding that identity to stick up for everybody, from all walks of life." possibilityspace.substack.com/p/heaton-park on @zackpolanski.bsky.social

All of which amount to banning the right to free speech and protest. Stop gaslighting and insulting the intelligence of the public, #ShabanaMahmood. All you are doing his paving the way to extreme, authoritarian government. #Labour

🔴NEW🔴 Thread 🧵 @bylinetimes.bsky.social can now reveal that, during the crucial period when convicted Reform leader Nathan Gill was most active, working directly with Russian President Vladimir Putin’s most senior ally in Ukraine, he was also one of Nigel Farage’s closest confidantes 1/12

Situation's grim, but this did make me laugh.

Nigel Farage Broke Britain.

Why I Refused the BBC’s Invitation to Discuss ‘Jewish Safety’ substack.com/@avigail/not...

I renounced my Israeli citizenship in protest in 2001 BBC Radio Scotland should not be doing a programme on the topic of ‘whether Jews feel safe in Scotland following the attack in Manchester’ This attack is being exploited to silence or criticise pro-Palestine, anti-Zionist protesters like myself

#trevorphillips askes Mahmood if the heckling of David Lammy at the vigil on Friday should be "a cause for reflection amongst ministers about whether you answered the calls of Jewish leaders previously to stop demonstrations many Jews felt were intimidating" What a framing

British Jews.

With the Tory conference starting shortly, here are 3 parody speeches from the past. First, Rowan Atkinson. youtu.be/YaGdwfykYGY?...

Zack here is spot on. Contrast with this lot and Starmer who penned his own loopy thoughts in the Jewish Chronicle of all rags!

Starmer urges pro-Palestine protesters to ‘respect the grief of British Jews’ By writing in the #JewishChronicle? That rag when edited by Jake Wallis Simons published gushing adulation of #Israeli war crimes & #genocide. It exposes yet another example of just how poor a politician #Starmer is.

England nationalized rail passenger services lease carriages from rolling stock companies (ROSCOs). 87% of rolling stock controlled by 3 Luxembourg companies. Paid £1.282bn dividends in last 3 yrs. Not taxed in UK. Privatization has hollowed out the UK - Taxes lost, it is all about exploitation.

Glad to hear it. I was in downtown Portland yesterday and I couldn't even walk around without tripping over some war. It was just lying about the place.

Can you help by signing this petition? #Gaza #Palestine #Israel #Airbnb www.change.org/p/tell-airbn...

What the … ? 🤷🏻‍♂️ The UK government itself making a clear link between antisemitism and the anti-Israel’s genocide of #Palestinians in #Gaza. This is really not helping. Jesus (would’ve) wept. What does “un-British” even mean?! 🤷🏻‍♂️ www.bbc.com/news/article...

"I'm here to talk about what others won’t. To tell the truth about what makes our country great and what makes it not so great. While others thrive on creating scapegoats, I am here to tell you a different story." www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Hahahaha, the Police are asking Palestine Action supporters to suspend their peaceful protest because it takes too many Police to arrest them. Just stop arresting them then.

'Murderous ideologies' need to be stamped out” The president of the Conference of European Rabbis, Pinchas Goldschmidt, is calling for more to be done to "stamp out murderous ideologies" I couldn’t agree more, Rabbi! Shall we start with #Zionism? #Israel. #Gaza. #Manchester

If Yemen boarded an aid convoy in international waters and kidnapped its crew, the US would be bombing Sanaa right now.

This is the judgment on the PPE/Medpro claim. A cracking £122m win for the Government Legal Service And is wonderful to see the government bringing a claim in contract against a shoddy supplier. This does not happen often, and it should happen far more. www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/u...

Reform say it is "disgusting and libellous" to suggest that Nigel Farage flirted with Hitler Youth when he was young. Here's how a former teacher at his school remembers it

Yusuf Omar Perfectly Explains how Trump’s Gaza Plan is Full of Israeli Confessions

“What the IDF is doing is an intentionally deliberate destruction of the place so that people would not be able to live there,” —Genocide scholar Bartov.

Mustafa Barghouti on the Israeli/US so called 'peace plan'

“I find it interesting that Israel was able to pinpoint k!ll Ismail Haniyeh in a house in a foreign country. But when it comes to Gaza, they had to wipe out the whole place. They had to reduce it to 42 million tons of rubble..” —Mehdi Hassan shuts 1$raeli Eylon Levy🔥

Well. There can be no doubt that #Israel is a corrupt, failing state if in order to end a corrupt criminal PM’s war, the equally-corrupt President has to pardon him. A law-abiding democratic society - apparently. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Avoiding peace may be more costly than more war. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Amazing bit of 2019 footage this. Frei doing a great job of trying to hold Farage to account as he and Nathan Gill go walkabout. And I suspect Farage will come to regret his quip at the end about Russians if it does the rounds again.

Dunno, but a former UK prime minister declaring what will happen to Palestine is not something which went terribly well before.

I'm sure Calgie, Cole, Pogrund, Swinford, Wickham, Hodges, Riley-Smith, and Hope are ALL OVER IT. <waits> <waits more> <reads story on donkey field> <waits> <has wotsit sandwich> <waits more>

What has Yvette Cooper’s proscription of Palestine Action done to this country? Beyond absurd. It’s extreme authoritarianism. These police should be arresting rapists & crooks, not neglecting those duties to spend time arresting citizens standing against genocide. It undermines police and the law.

Really, Reform UK? THIS is what you're going with? That this man, who served as an MEP next to Nigel Farage for years and was made leader of your party in Wales by current deputy, Richard Tice, is just "one of tens of thousands of people Nigel meets on an annual basis"?~AA

The nerve of this is simply incredible. Will the right-wing press continue to provide cover?

“Israeli Forces Kill 198 Palestinians in Gaza Over Three Days” It’s a genocide. Daily endless massacres, largely ignored in the West.

Stop blaming migrants and tackle real problems, 100 charities tell UK Govt. Govt follows Reform agenda, failed to develop effective counter narrative. Migrants are vital part of economy, public services. Economic problems caused by inequality, austerity, privatisation, political corruption.

#Labour version of Braverman & Patel? What is it about some kids of migrants deciding being vicious towards other migrants is a worthy act? How does one measure the worthiness of “contributing to the community”? Things that Brits don’t want to do? Wiping bottoms? www.bbc.com/news/article...
