Was in 5 guys on George's street with friends. It's around 10pm. A man and a woman burst into the place and the man charged up to us. He grabs the receipt beside me, looks at it. The nods. Then to address the confused looks says "We going to have sex in the bathroom".

Off they went

Reporter: How did the Israelis treat you, we saw them giving sandwiches?
Greta Thunberg: They probably have posted lots of PR stunts, they did an illegal act by kidnapping us in international waters but that’s not the real story here. The real story is the genocide in Gaza and systematic starvation.
Reporter: Are you worried about the others?
Greta: Yes…I’m calling for everyone who can to mobilize to demand their immediate release and, of course, to demand not only humanitarian aid being let into Gaza but also a ceasefire and most importantly an end to the occupation, an end to the systemic oppression and violence that Palestinians are facing on an everyday basis.
Reporter: β€œWhy do you think so many countries and governments around the world are just ignoring what’s happening in Gaza?”
Greta Thunberg: β€œBecause of racism.”
