The Palestine Action ban ended the distribution of the documentary by @rainbow-collective.bsky.social , "To Kill A War Machine". One of the film's exec producers persuaded their MP to ask the Home Office a question: had it considered the broader implications of the ban for journalistic expression?

As of Monday showing this film could be illegal, if @palaction.bsky.social is proscribed.

It'd be TERRIBLE if someone in say, Ireland, starting hosting this film. Then people could watch it using a VPN.

Let's make sure this doesn't happen!

No way! I genuinely thought it was cause it won the bafta and a bunch of other awards and assumed surely it’s nominated. Oh well I really do hope No Other Land wins.. It’s been screened on channel 4 on Tuesday I think..

Israel has announced a total blockade on food and essential supplies to Gaza, starving 2 million of basic necessities.

This is a continuation of genocide.

Until the government enforces a full two-way arms embargo and severs economic & diplomatic ties, it is directly complicit.

Good predictions… personally as much as I want No Other Land to win it’s not been picked up by a distributor or is it getting many or if any screenings in the states.. I reckon the Christopher reeve documentary will win as it’s an easier choice for the voters. But I hope I’m pleasantly surprised

No-one risks their life in the Channel in a flimsy boat unless they have no choice.

Labour’s cruel move to block refugees from citizenship — bypassing Parliament — shows a dangerous rightward shift, ditching human rights & international law.

It must be reversed.

Keir Starmer restores whip to Labour rebel MPs - but some left out Keir Starmer suspended the group of seven Labour MPs in July 2024 after they supported an SNP amendment to the King's Speech to scrap the Tory two-child benefit limit

I've just found out from this article that my whip still hasn't been restored.

Turns out speaking up for Palestine is still a punishable offence.

This is ethnic cleansing, plain and simple.

But will the UK government condemn this?

Trump said he hadn’t read Project 2025 – but most of his early executive orders overlap with its proposals | CNN Politics A CNN analysis of Trump’s first week in office found that two-thirds of his early executive orders and actions appear closely aligned with Project 2025’s plans.

“This is exactly the work we set out to do,” Paul Dans, who oversaw Project 2025 at the conservative Heritage Foundation, told CNN.

Every journalist that ran with Trump's denials about Project 2025, that indulged them, that pretended it was a liberal conspiracy.... should hang their heads in shame.

After 15 months of genocide in Gaza, a ceasefire has been declared — but the US, UK & others must be held accountable for arming these atrocities.

We’ll keep speaking out until the siege lifts, aid flows, schools & hospitals are rebuilt, the Occupation ends & Palestine is free.

Biden plans $8bn arms sale to Israel Last-minute show of support for US president’s close ally as he nears his final days in office

Instead of using the last days of his presidency to call for peace, Joe Biden has poured more money into arming Israel’s destruction of Gaza.

A shameful indictment of his administration and its complicity in genocide.
