Join us at ‘The Great Boycott’ in Brighton on 17/5: Brilliant Music & Politics in support of Palestine. I’ll be speaking along with the amazing independent candidate ⁦Tanushkamarah⁩

South Africa Foreign Minister: “We will not rest until Palestine’s freedom is realised.” progressive.international/wire/2024-05-1…

If David Lammy had any integrity he would retract his misrepresentation of Nelson Mandela & apologise to Madiba’s family. If he refuses then, as someone who worked under Mandela, I challenge Lammy to a public debate on Mandela’s position on Palestine & civil disobedience

David Lammy can get Nelson Mandela’s name out of his damn mouth.

David Lammy is the definition of a sell-out.

Nelson Mandela would have no time for him.

Jewish Israelis set the UNRWA headquarters in East Jerusalem on fire, but there will be no criminal investigation because it was done by 'minors.' In the meantime, hundreds of Palestinian children are prosecuted in Israeli military courts every year. That's called Apartheid.

BREAKING: UN General Assembly ADOPTS resolution, recommending Security Council reconsider the matter of Palestine’s membership favourably; changing modalities for its participation in meetings
#Palestine
RESULT:
IN FAVOR: 143
AGAINST: 9
ABSTAIN: 25

The UN resolution strengthens the pragmatic Palestinian forces and marks another milestone towards a 2-state solution. As such, it's also anti-Hamas. But the Israeli amb to the UN is a halfwit nincompoop whose theatrical shitshow suggests Israel doesn't respect int'l law.

🚨Nelson Mandela’s Grandson:
David Lammy is a lying Apartheid supporter and a shameful apologist for genocide. Keep Mandela’s name out your f—king mouth!🤬👇

“If Keir Starmer isn’t careful, Gaza could do for him what the Iraq war did for Blair” : Martin Kettle

And it isn’t just about ‘Muslim voters’, Martin. Many on the Left are angry at Starmer and won’t ever vote for him or his ilk. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

George Galloway asking Penny Mordaunt if the house would be granted an opportunity to express a view on arms sales to Israel.

Both Labour and the Tories do not want such a vote as they know that the public would rightly demand they suspend arms sales to Israel immediately.

This is a betrayal of workers and their families as Starmer continues to appease big business and takes traditional Labour voters for granted.
Is any pledge still honoured?

CIJ_ICJ How many times must South Africa submit reports on the gross fatal violations of #Israel before ICJ takes firmer action? How many people must die & starve in pain before you deliver your genocide verdict or order a ceasefire ? How much human suffering must we witness, feel

PRESS RELEASE: South Africa submits an urgent request for the indication of additional provisional measures and the modification of previous provisional measures indicated by the #ICJ in the case #SouthAfrica v. #Israel tinyurl.com/3bphwf3p

Perhaps if the ICJ doesn't want tons of blood on its hands it will issue stronger and more direct orders NOW.

BREAKING: UN VOTE BY A MAJORITY TO GRANT PALESTINE MORE UN RIGHTS

This is a historic moment.

By a significant majority, the UN General Assembly recommended the Security Council reconsider the Palestinian bid for full membership.

Muslim WhatsApp groups are abuzz with messages of PureGym cancellations after the CEO's pro Israel comments. I reckon they will have lost millions in subs in a few days time. PureGym #puregym

A Jewish student at Cambridge University gives MEE a tour of the Cambridge Encampment for Gaza.

“There's many of us here in Cambridge. Jews who believe that it is our duty, to speak out against the genocide that is being, carried out in our name, by the Israeli state”

'It's the worst thing I've seen in my lifetime.'

British broadcaster & football legend @garylineker talks Gaza with me on #MehdiUnfiltered and reveals: 'I cry on a regular basis when I see certain images on social media.'

It’s clear that The Labour Party under Starmer is being found out. The lies are stacking up, becoming more outrageous & like naughty children, they’re lashing out at anyone who holds them to account. It’s becoming a daily spectacle. I feel like their shame over #Gaza has triggered this.
