A photo of Agnes Callamard with a quote that reads: "The UK government seems more bent on abusing terrorism laws to restrict protests rather than addressing the root cause behind these actions – livestreamed genocide in Gaza."
The UK government is targeting protestors for speaking out for Palestinian rights.
The Secretary General of @amnesty.org, Agnes Callamard, spoke about the UK’s repressive measures at Amplify – Amnesty UK’s National Conference.
No matter what the ghouls in government say, no matter how they try to stop us protesting, the simple fact is that only a small minority support selling weapons to Israel.

Say no to Starmer the nuke rearmer! Join us in protesting the dangerous expansion of Britain's nuclear weapons programme at RAF Marham this Saturday!
Details: cnduk.org/events/say-n...
The £70bn/year will generate about 11,000 defence jobs (gvt estimate) IE 0.025% of current defence workforce. The cut to PIP will save only £5bn by robbing 800,000 of the most vulnerable of £4,500/year on average.
Can we check these figures?
UK to spend estimated £1.3bn on F35A nuclear bombers made in USA (good for Lockheed Martin) on top of at least £200bn to replace Trident while also committing to increase defence spending by £70bn per year but can't find £5bn for welfare? #WelfareNotWarfare
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.

How on earth can the UK sanction two Israeli ministers yet — at the very same time — continue supplying weapons to the very government they serve?
The UK’s position is becoming more absurd by the day. End all arms sales to Israel, now.
At least 225 Palestinian journalists have been killed in Gaza since 2023. One was the son of Wael al-Dahdouh, who also lost his wife, two other children and a grandchild. Here, he talks about regaining his sense of purpose amid the desolation

This has nothing to do with energy security and everything to do with building up Britain’s deadly nuclear weapons programme. The government must reverse this disastrous direction.
