Sickening to watch Cameron attempting to defend the indefensible - turning evasion and obfuscation into an art form. Govt’s refusal to end arms exports to Israel makes UK complicit in war crimes & the refusal to reinstate funding to UNRWA is unforgivable #bbclaurak

Matt Hancock gave a PPE contract to his sisters company which he owned 20% of. Then denied it when confronted and covered up the evidence. In total he has been personally involved in more than £600,000,000 of PPE fraud. Let’s investigate HIS bank account.

Continuing UK arms sales to Israel puts the government and Ministers in a clear position of complicity with Israel's war crimes. 69% of Britons want Israel to stop military action in Gaza & favour a ceasefire. The government needs to listen.

This is NOT what vile antisemitism looks like. The media is not being fair and even handed about the Columbia campus protests.
Spent the first night of Passover at the student seder in the Gaza solidarity encampment at Columbia. The Jewish flank of the Palestine solidarity movement is growing and it is so beautiful to behold. Judge for yourself how unsafe these Jewish students look.

The children in the mass graves had their hands zip tied behind their backs. The doctors in the mass graves had their hands zip tied behind their backs. They were executed en masse, 300 of them. 300 people who people who lived, breathed, loved, laughed, mattered.

How are news outlets dedicating wall-to-wall coverage to campus protests, but not the discovery of mass graves in Gaza of people with their hands tied & clothing stripped? Why do we not know more? Where are the journalists and resources being dedicated to that story?

Congresswoman @IlhanMN spoke at the student protest at the University of Minnesota today. The University is in her district and there has been an encampment there as well. Correct me if I’m wrong…I think she may be the first member of congress to speak at one of these protests since they began.

More than 300 bodies found in a mass grave at Nasser Hospital in Gaza, including children executed with their hands tied behind their backs. Children. Executed. With their hands tied. We are witnessing a genocide, and the International Criminal Court is nowhere to be found.

BREAKING: Independent UN Investigation led by former French foreign minister Catherine Colonna concludes Israel provided NO evidence to substantiate their claims against UNRWA. Big lies that led counties like the US & UK to withdraw funding of the only humanitarian organisation capable of feeding the starving population of Gaza. Israel has lied again & again to justify their genocide, fabricating fake episodes to substantiate their fake stories. The media has swallowed every word. We're not that stupid. Evidence was never there from day one, @OborneTweets knew. Meanwhile, Gaza continues to starve

👀 List of Tories supporting one of the key amendments to water down the Renters Reform Bill. What does the (R) by names mean? Registered interests. Looks like landlords turning out in force to scupper a bill that was meant to protect renters' interests, not their own finances

This is what digging up body parts from the scene of a massacre looks like. These are the shared values that @GermanyDiplo can’t get enough of.

According to available polling data, there are two groups in German society who still predominantly support Israel's destruction of Gaza: voters of the far-right Alternative für Deutschland party, and the cultural and political elite. Make of that data point what you will.

It’s absolutely mad that one country is risking a region-wide war that could very easily escalate into a major global catastrophe and everyone is supposed to keep mum about it or else it’s antisemitism.

The attack on Columbia’s students will be recorded as a watershed in the fascistization of America, at the behest of Israel and its lobby. It will mark either the beginning of the end for Israeli capture of U.S. institutions, or a death-knell for democracy. #Columbia #Palestine

All the stuff in the news about protests on US universities keeps reminding me that Israel blew up every single university in Gaza, and most of it's schools too.

My view of the protests in and near Columbia University is that today they found yet another mass grave in Khan Younis with hundreds of bodies of Palestinians Israel killed.
