Starmer will be remembered for his unwavering commitment to genocide, for his endless capitulation to the far right, for stoking transphobia and Islamophobia, and for doing whatever he could to make the lives of those fleeing war, persecution and climate collapse that much shitter.

For those of us who see Palestinians as human beings, this was Starmer's defining moment. It is not sustainable to behave in this way while leading the nominally progressive party in a two party system. Starmer's unpopularity is not one of life's great mysteries. www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8_s...

Please help Hammam's family survive Israel's genocide, which has left them sick, starving & homeless. They've been displaced without a tent again, & desperately need help. His disabled brother Abood has a broken leg & urgently needs surgery:

It's now been 3 hours since our supposed "ally" Donald Trump threatened genocide on a country of 93 million people. We've had absolutely nothing from the UK government. This doesn't come in a vacuum either - every day the US & Israel have been murdering innocent people.

WASHINGTON (AP) — White House says Spain has agreed to cooperate with US operations in Mideast after Trump threatened financial penalties. MADRID (AP) — Spain's government denies cooperation with US operations in the Middle East, contradicting White House.

Spanish PM Sánchez responds to Trump: "Spain is against this disaster... Govts are here to improve people's lives... It is absolutely unacceptable that those leaders who are unable to fulfill that mission use the smoke of war to hide their failure, and in the process, fill the pockets of a few."

I am pro Iranian people. I stand with them against their own government’s repression AND against the imperial violence in the form of bombs dropped from the sky from Israel & the US who have already killed hundreds. I support neither imperialism or dictatorship. Sahar Delijani said it best:

The Labour government object to us talking about Gaza. Genocide is serious and they should hang their heads in shame for arming it, not complaining to journalists. Not surprised they're distracting from their other failures - like addressing the cost of energy bills and rent.

Israel is a top 10 global arms exporter. In 2024 arms exports rose to $14.9 billion, with 54% of those purchases made by Europe (MOD data). The UK spends millions of pounds each year on “battle-tested” arms from Israeli companies. This 👇 is what "battle-tested means".

#OnThisDay in 1898, Bertolt Brecht was born. He did not write for art’s sake, but to challenge injustice, expose fascism and inspire change. His plays demand an active audience — and his socialist critique remains sharply relevant today.

If we can all investigate our own alleged crimes and see whether we've been cool, actually, then the courts backlog will soon be a thing of the past!
