I went to @greenparty.org.uk conference - and unlike Labour, didn't get the boot.

But will the Greens succeed in convincing Labour voters - and what about the threat of Farage?

It starts with Palestine protests. But where will the crackdown on Britain’s democratic freedoms end? | Owen Jones In making dissent a privilege, not a right, Labour is crafting a repressive toolkit. Imagine it in the hands of a Farage government, says Guardian columnist Owen Jones

Israel's cheerleaders have opportunistically seized on a heinous antisemitic attack to silence opponents of genocide.

Our freedoms are being stolen - and we are headed to a very dark place.

Where should Zack take the podcast and who would be your dream guest?

Israel’s cheerleaders are conflating Jewish people with Israel and its crimes.

This is a lie - and as @naamoduk.bsky.social's Emili Stevenson tells me, it’s dangerous.

They're destroying the right to protest - to shut down opposition to Israel's genocide.

Discussing that on @lbc.co.uk with @shelaghfogarty.bsky.social at 1pm.

Stop conflating the Jewish people with Israel's genocide.

Those who present opposition to Israeli war crimes as attacks on the Jewish people aren't just deeply cynical - they are dangerously irresponsible.

Apparently questioning Emily Thornberry about Israel's genocide is "misogyny".

I don't "chase" any men, she says.

Well, it's the first time I've been accused of that.

Israel kidnaps Gaza flotilla Piracy in plain sight.

Israel has kidnapped hundreds of people in international waters.

They were trying to break an illegal siege which is starving the people of Gaza.

The flotilla is the best of us πŸ‘‡

Palestinian civilians are being slaughtered by Israel's F-35 jets.

Britain is supplying crucial components for those murderous fighter jets.

I asked Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper about them.

She refused to answer.

Scrutinising politicians is not "bullying" I've been accused of "misogyny" and "bullying" for challenging a politician about Israel's genocide. Cynical doesn't cover it

Labour politician Dame Emily Thornberry accuses me of "bullying" and "misogyny" - because I challenged her record on Israel's genocide.

This shameless, sinister attempt to shut down scrutiny must be fought.

YouTube video by Owen Jones They Kicked Me Out For THIS? Owen Jones Visits LABOUR CONFERENCE

I went to Labour conference - and then they revoked my press pass.

I found a party defined by delusion - and literally running away from its record.

Where to even begin.

The Labour Chancellor declares herself an eternal friend of a state committing a live-streamed genocide.

We are ruled by moral disgraces who are criminally liable for aiding and abetting one of the worst crimes of our age.

This means that it is now Labour’s official position that Israel is committing genocide.

While at the same time, the Labour government continues to arm that genocide

Absolutely extraordinary!

Wow.

This is absolutely huge.

After the attacks, Spain is offering direct military protection to the flotilla bringing humanitarian aid to Gaza.

So what now, Israel?

Are you going to risk acts of war against a European nation so you can attack humanitarian vessels?

The Gaza aid flotilla has come under attack from drones and explosions.

Israel is scared of this flotilla.

Why? Because it proves that Israel's genocidal starvation of Gaza can be stopped - if there's the will.

I spoke to David Adler on the flotilla yesterday.
