Andy Burnham… 🚩Joined Labour Friends of Israel in 2015 🚩Said the first place he’d visit as leader would be Israel 🚩Refused to call what’s happening in Gaza a genocide 🚩Opposes the BDS movement calling it “spiteful” The players change, but the game stays the same

The word “Islamophobia” feels too soft for the scale of violence, dehumanization, and institutional power directed at Muslim communities

We have been informed that my father, Imran Khan, has lost most of the vision in his right eye, with reports indicating only 15% eyesight remains. This is the direct consequence of 922 days of solitary confinement, medical neglect (denied blood tests) and the deliberate denial of proper treatment in jail. The responsibility lies squarely with the regime in power, the Army Chief and the puppets enabling this cruelty. This physical deterioration is happening under their orders, their watch and their responsibility. They have manipulated and warped the justice system in order to keep my father in solitary confinement. My brother and I are still being denied visas to see our father as his health deteriorates. History will record this injustice. We urge human rights bodies, legal institutions and democratic nations to confront this persecution and ensure those responsible face consequences.

Hi guys, this is your reminder that lsraeI once had “Right to rape” protest.
They lie more than they breathe. Israelis literally protested for the “right to rape” demanding soldiers be allowed to sexually assault Palestinian detainees.

2,000 Brits serving in Israel's army? Strip them all of their citizenship like we did for Shamima Begum.

A billionaire worth £17,000,000,000 who moved to Monaco to dodge £4,000,000,000 in tax is now blaming immigrants for Britain’s problems. If parasitic billionaires like Jim Ratcliffe paid what they owe — and politicians weren’t in their pockets — our NHS, schools and public services wouldn’t be on their knees. It is textbook divide and rule. The real enemy of the working class travels by private jet, not migrant dinghy.

Actually they’re doing it quite loudly. The only reason it seems quiet is because Western media and politicians are ignoring it.

Only 22 MPs voted against proscribing Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation. They should be proud of themselves; the other 628 should be ashamed.

You have helped facilitate genocide. You have sought to throw grannies behind bars for opposing that genocide. You will lose. You will be remembered only as a monster, and one day, it is politicians like you who will end up behind bars for facilitating the crime of crimes.
The Court acknowledged that Palestine Action has carried out acts of terrorism. It concluded that its actions are not consistent with democratic values and the rule of law Supporting the Palestinian cause is not the same as supporting Palestine Action. The Government's proscription followed a rigorous process, endorsed by Parliament. I will fight this judgment in the Court of Appeal.

Israel has just banned 37 aid organisations from operating in Gaza. This is Zionism. This is genocide.

Ok so grannies in wheelchairs are arrested just for holding a Free Palestine sign, but this doesn't break any anti terrorism laws?
"WE'RE GOING TO KILL ALL OF YOU." Elderly zionist holding Israeli army flag makes a throat-cutting gesture while threatening to kill pro-Palestinian protestors
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This incident took place in New York USA and not London UK, therefore has nothing to do with @metpolice t.co/S97EiXAB8R
