God this feels me with heartbreak and rage in equal measure. The RSF terrorizing a mother and her children in Sudan backed by UAE
🚨 The UK Government must take immediate action against Israel following their illegal hijacking of the Madleen, a boat carrying civilian activists who were attempting to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza.

When our MPs mumble about Palestinians needing to “negotiate” their way out from under illegal occupation (!)
This episode perfectly encapsulates the power relations within which those “negotiations” are supposed to happen

While Israeli soldiers held up the ambulance, one soldier told Saddam’s father, “I am the one who shot your son. God willing, he will die.”

We are calling on Luton MPs, Sarah Owen and @rach_hopkins, to ensure that the government’s review of gang-based exploitation is guided by research and evidence, protects victims and rejects harmful and racist narratives.

The new Joe Sacco graphic novel arrived in the post and it’s great - slimmer than his two previous classics but every bit as thought-provoking
One to get in stock @DavidsBookshop!
Love and solidarity with Christians in Palestine.
“Here in Palestine, we live under the harshest and most difficult conditions. Bethlehem is besieged. Jerusalem is wounded. And Gaza is being annihilated. This year we say, Christ is still under the rubble in Gaza.”
@MuntherIsaac
In solidarity with Christians in Palestine:
“I echo the words of @MuntherIsaac. I am outraged by the complicity of the church […] Empty calls for peace, without a ceasefire and end to occupation, and the shallow words of empathy without direct action...”
-Rev @lucaslarner
The #Letters2Gaza campaign aims to refocus attention on the children of Gaza, ensuring their suffering is neither forgotten nor ignored.
1/4
Israel continues to bomb Gaza daily, killing innocent Palestinians, including children. The suffering is unimaginable, and it feels like no one cares— the genocide continues, while the world does nothing.
That’s why we are launching the #Letters2Gaza campaign.
Join us in writing a heartfelt letter or creating a drawing to express your love and solidarity with the children of Gaza. Let them know that they’re not alone and the world does care. 💕

Grow a spine @Keir_Starmer. End ALL arms sales to Israel.

We are calling on @rach_hopkins and @SarahOwen_ to act on behalf of their constituents and express their support for the ruling of the @CIJ_ICJ, which has affirmed that Israel is:
- An apartheid state
- illegally occupying Gaza
- illegally annexing the West Bank
- violating Palestinian right to self-determination.
And orders Israel to:
- end the occupation
- fully repair/compensate Palestinians, through right of return & dismantelling of settlements
The @CIJ_ICJ confirmed on Friday that Israel subjects Palestinians to apartheid
Will @rach_hopkins & other MPs who attended this event below now affirm their support for the struggle against present-day apartheid?

A privilege to attend the special thanksgiving service celebrating the struggle to end apartheid and 30 years of democracy in South Africa in @wabbey today.
Great to hear from @RonaldLamola, Lord Boateng, @cmcanea and @LordRoyKennedy.
