"Our govt is arming, is facilitating a genocide, and is calling the people that oppose that genocide terrorists"

“I truly hope that people understand what’s happening.”
“I’m a UN pro bono official — I’m not even paid. Yet suddenly I’m a threat to the global economy. Why? Because I asked big tech to comply with international law and stop profiteering from genocide.”
— Francesca Albanese
13,000 more families were hit by the two-child benefit cap in the past year.
Dark rumours from the DWP that not cutting PIP means keeping the cap cannot come to pass.

'Yvette Cooper' direct action group targets transporter of Israeli weapons
It's Palestine Action, Jim, but not as we know it...
Meet the new direct action group Yvette Cooper, going after the genocide merchants
www.thecanary.co/trending/202...
A new direct action group calling itself 'Yvette Cooper' claims to have targeted Time Logistics for providing transport in Britain for Israel's Elbit Systems. Its message to the government on social media says, "if you want to ban Palestine Action, you'll have to proscribe Yvette Cooper too"

This 83-year-old priest has just been arrested for holding a sign which read:
“I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action.”
According to Starmer’s new law, this puts her in the same category as an ISIS or Al-Qaeda terrorist, with a prison sentence of up to 14 years.
This DISGUSTS me…
83 year old arrested for ‘Silently Protesting’ against Palestinian Action ban!!

Labour is dead.
We need a Red-Green Alliance to tax the rich, invest in people and services, support public ownership, stop arming genocide.

They forced this Bill through with unwritten promises of improvement.
The reality remains: cuts for people who are ill are still on the table.
Kemi Badenoch mocking a visibly upset Rachel Reeves at PMQs is really not a good look, given we don't yet know what has happened

We have a Prime Minister & an entire party who chose to protect wealth of the super rich & target the poorest and disabled.
No wonder the entire country wants a totally different politics.
Today, the UK government intends to ban the non-violent protesters Palestine Action as a "terrorist" group, exposing anyone supporting them to terrorism charges. In 2 days, 380,000 people have watched this video on YT alone.
You're going to need a bigger prison.

Imagine a world, where the wealthy few paid their fair share, so that the many could live their lives free from the burden of poverty and living pay cheque to pay cheque.
Wealth like this is obscene - the workers who enable this man’s bank account to grow should be paid a fair wage!

I stand with #PalestineAction. Lock me up as a terrorist, Yvette Cooper.

Let's be crystal clear that Cooper is implementing this measure in defence of British collusion in genocide.
Its difficult to imagine a more thoroughly risible bid for the moral high ground.

At least the Bush/Cheney warmongers went to Congress for authorization. Trump bombing Iran without congressional approval is illegal. Full stop.
But he’s never been held accountable for any of the illegal things he’s done in his life so why not drag us all down with him
LOOK AT THIS SHIT: ICE smashed someone’s windows, yanked them out, and then arrested the United States citizen who filmed it.
That’s not “immigration enforcement.”
This government is out here punishing witnesses.
Fascism is HERE.
The President's disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers. He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations. It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.
AOC: “It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long
All lies.
In 2003, anti-war activists broke into RAF Fairford to stop US bombers heading to Iraq.
Keir Starmer defended their actions and said it was justified to prevent war crimes.
Now his government is banning Palestine Action for doing the same.
The Prime Minister is a hypocrite.
