Die Kampagne gegen Die Linke darf nicht folgenlos bleiben. Am 10. Oktober findet der internationale Aktionstag für ein Ende des Genozids in Gaza statt! Machen wir daraus auch einen Tag, an dem wir uns die legitime Kritik an der israelischen Regierung nicht mehr verbieten lassen!

If you truly believe that other people "got it right "whilst the Labour Party got it wrong then the natural corollary is to listen to the demands of those people now. The settlement ban is a necessary step but a minimum first step. You cited in your statement to the House the UN commission of Enquiry. That means you accept it as an authoritative body. That body has found Israel guilty of genocide. You cannot hide behind the line that the UK does not need to make a determination and act until the ICJ has completed its investigations. The ICJ's provisional measures and the UN commission both place requirements on states to act to prevent genocide. That necessarily means a full arms embargo and an end to all trade that might support Israel's crimes. The Ch4 dispatches revealed, what those of us who " got it right" have asserted all along- the deep complicity of the UK in the genocide. This includes the Starmer Gov. So all aspects of that ongoing complicity have to end and there has to be accountability for previous actions that recognises these went way beyond " being slow to call for a ceasefire" . This is what is minimally required for the UK to live up to the promise you make here that it will always be on the side of justice. That also requires recognising the realities of apartheid and ending the framing of a demand for all of its structures to be dismantled as antisemitic desire to destroy Israel. No state has a right to exist as a racially supremacist state. It also requires full respect for the right to protest and an end to the suppression of the voices of those you now recognise got it right.

The meaning of profit before people
🚨 मुस्ताङको लेतेमा ठूलो पहिरो- जोखिम अझै कायमै ‼️ हिजो चारधाम क्षेत्र यात्राका क्रममा एकजना मित्रले लेते नजिकै साँझ करिब ५:३० बजे पहाडको ठूलो भाग खसेको दृश्य भिडियोमा कैद गर्नुभएको छ। स्थानीय जानकारी अनुसार, पहिरो खस्दा कालीगण्डकी नदी केही समय अवरुद्ध भएको र त्यसपछि नदीले आफ्नो धारबाट पानी कटान गर्दै बगेको बताइएको छ। यस क्षेत्रमा पछिल्ला दिनको अविरल वर्षाका कारण बाढी, पहिरो र नदी कटानको जोखिम बढेको छ। बेनी–जोमसोम सडकखण्डका विभिन्न स्थानमा पहिरोका कारण यातायातसमेत प्रभावित भएको रिपोर्ट आएको छ। ठूलो मानवीय विपद् हुनबाट जोगिएको भनिए पनि जोखिम अझै कायम रहेकाले यात्रु तथा स्थानीयवासीलाई उच्च सतर्कता अपनाउन अनुरोध छ। पहिरो तथा नदी कटान प्रभावित क्षेत्रमा अनावश्यक यात्रा नगर्नुहोस् र सुरक्षित दूरी कायम राख्नुहोस्। सतर्क रहौँ, सुरक्षित रहौँ। 🇳🇵🙏

Looking like the first major day of international coordinated action for Palestine. At a time when the tide is turning. Let’s make it massive in London.

Der internationale Aktionstag gegen den Genozid in Palästina am 10. Oktober wäre auch ein Zeichen der Entschlossenheit, dass wir die Diffamierung und die Instrumentalisierung des Antisemitismus gegen legitime Kritik an Israel nicht mehr tatenlos hinnehmen werden. ✊🏽

Excellent speech from Lindsey German at yesterday’s protest at the Labour Party Conference…
Andy Burnham went to the UN this week and what did he say? We stand with Israel. He should understand that if he stands with Israel he will be making one of the biggest political mistakes of his life. Our @LindseyAGerman speaking at today’s march for Palestine at Labour conference in Liverpool.

August Nimtz is always worth listening to. This interview on race and class and Marxism is a must read.
Cedric Robinson’s Black Marxism has become a touchstone for the Left on race and capitalism. August Nimtz argues that it misreads Karl Marx, erases black revolutionaries who were Marxists, and gives up on the working class. jacobin.com/2026/09/nimtz-ro…

With oil already at $100 dollars a barrel as a result of the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, the threat of a massive cost-of-living hike is all too real as the second major oil and trade route in the Middle East is closed. counterfire.org/article/trum…

Horrendous. Adults and children are more likely to develop cancer from living near factories using these chemicals. Labour movement colleagues must note work by @fbunational warning of these exposures: “Firefighters face quadruple PFAS exposure risks” fbu.org.uk/magazine/april-ma…

The words “democracy” or “democratic” appear in Jonathan Freedland’s column a handful of times when describing Israel. The correct term - apartheid - doesn’t feature once.
