Alexa, what does a moron look like?

"Last year, Yvette Cooper received £215,000 from the Israel lobby
Then, she proscribed Palestine Action as a 'terrorist organisation'
Here she is with Israel's UK Ambassador Evil Tzipi Hotovely
One thing that always shocks me is how cheaply our politicians are bought."

Eight repeat protests that achieved positive change Repeat protests have won us many of our rights and freedoms, but could soon be banned under the government's Crime and Policing Bill.

Stop Palantir taking over our public services! Our public services aren’t for a secretive profit-hungry US tech firm. Sign the petition to tell the Government to scrap all contracts with secretive US tech firm Palantir.

Palantir, a US spy-tech firm, has been given access to millions of NHS patient records.

Its founder has said the NHS should be 'ripped up'.

Join me in calling on the government to end the dangerous Palantir contract.

Protest makes our democracy more resilient, our government more responsive and our society more inclusive.

But it’s under threat – and we must act urgently to protect it.

Palestine Action hunger strikers near death ‘intent’ on continuing protests Prisoners remaining on rolling hunger strike are suffering with dangerous symptoms, loved ones and a doctor say.

Palestine Action hunger strikers near death ‘intent’ on continuing protests

Heba Muraisi and Kamran Ahmed, Palestine Action-linked British activists on the brink of death, are determined to keep up their prison hunger strike until their demands are met.

www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/1/...

I am horrified by the murder of a woman in Minneapolis by an ICE agent.

This is what fascism looks like in real time, where a far-right government emboldens a violent death squad to terrorise communities with impunity.

There’s always a tweet 👇

Today marks day 65 of Heba Muraisi’s hunger strike.

Day 58 for Kamran Ahmed.

They are now at imminent risk of death and this Labour government remains spineless and cowardly — refusing even to meet their lawyers while lives hang in the balance.

Video from the port city of La Guaira shows the aftermath of explosions that took place across Venezuela on early Saturday morning. President Maduro has declared a state of emergency after accusing the US of striking the country.

Are you worried or confused about the proposed law to restrict 'cumulative protests'?

We've contributed to this article breaking down your protest rights and what this new law could mean

This is grim & dangerous over reach.

This is a government that have lost the moral argument & are still selling arms to Israel. Now further cracking down on dissent.

Absolutely the opposite of what they should be doing - so of course this is what the Labour Government choose.

"Palestine remains the story"

As a protestor is carted off by police for holding a sign against genocide and the Palestine Action ban, she states that genocide in Gaza remains the story.

We won't be silenced whilst our government is participating in murdering Palestinians.

Rajab Al-Reefi the founder and head coach of the Gaza Skate Team, is the last member of the Gaza skateboarding collective. Israel has killed all the children.
