🚨 WATCH: An ambulance takes hunger striker Qesser Zuhrah to hospital after Zarah Sultana and others protested outside HMP Bronzefield since 2:30am
Andy Wood retweeted
The Ministry of Justice is still refusing to meet with the lawyers or families of hunger strikers being held on remand.
This is a shambolic dereliction of duty.
I have written to David Lammy, again, imploring him to do the right thing before it is too late.

Trump 🇺🇸 brags of his partnership with Netanyahu 🇮🇱
‘Bibi would call me for this weapon, for that weapon’
‘I would give them to him’
‘You [🇮🇱] put them to “good use”’
These racist monsters think murdering 20,000 innocent children is “good use”
The Hague is not enough.
Take action now with @MedicalAidPal. Email your MP today and demand an end for UK's complicity in Israel's atrocities! map.org.uk/campaigns/stop-uk…

Just a tiny number of the things we owned and the recent Tories sold off
If I went back to 1980 and gave you the full list you’d feel sick about it
None of us gained a thing except the super rich
Inequality through the roof.

Just a few short weeks ago Starmer whipped his MP’s to vote against a ceasefire under threat of deselection.
Starmer might not be ‘in power’ but by voting for a ceasefire it sends a clear message to the Israeli government. Instead Starmer’s steadfast support (and that of his front bench) carried on silencing dissent in his ranks by forcing apologies whenever Israel’s actions were questioned.
Why would he do this..? Why did he say Israel has the right to cut off water & power to Gaza…?
Why?
Kier Starmer is a ‘Labour Friend of Israel’ (LFI) a lobbying group who financially support selected politicians and expect loyalty in return.
Only now Starmer sees electoral jeopardy in his ‘unquestioning support for Israel’ does he seek to tip-toe away from his words and deeds.
Starmer cannot be allowed to get away with effectively closing down all dissent & cheerleading Israel on to commit the worst atrocities to a ICJ protected group imaginable.
I’m sickened this man is likely to become PM this year when he is clearly available to the highest bidder. No honour, decency, beliefs & no shame.

I keep being asked what I make of the UFO thing in Congress yesterday, so here it is: I watched a few clips and saw some people who seemed to believe stuff saying extraordinary things without presenting extraordinary evidence. Therefore I have nothing more to say, other than: It would be great if true - it would take a bit of the pressure off our civilisation if we weren’t the only means within the Milky Way by which the Universe understands itself. Sadly, as of today, I still feel that pressure, so can we perhaps focus on not messing our world up rather than hoping that, to paraphrase Sagan, someone will float down to save us from ourselves.
