There are no words to describe how disturbing UK 🇬🇧 policing has become: ‘If we protest for Palestine 🇵🇸, Sudan 🇸🇩, Congo we can’t stay. If we protest for Israel 🇮🇱 we can stay?’ ‘Yes’ Just what instructions and from whom, are being given to British police.
There is a new term “aid massacre” Women only aid was a trap for Gaza women who were pepper sprayed, beaten and killed when invited to come in for aid. mondoweiss.net/2025/07/palest…
Israel says it has bigger jobs to do than look after foreign journalists in Gaza. I'm not asking them to look after me. I'm just asking them to let me in. I'll look after myself as I do in every war zone I visit. We have freer access to Sudan, Congo & Yemen than we have to Gaza.

Israeli occupation police in occupied Haifa arrest 15 activists and violently disperse a solidarity protest in support of Gaza, condemning starvation and the Israeli aggression.
This is a genocide being committed by Israel.

It’s absolutely soul destroying to feel so helpless. Especially when you know that the British government is still providing military support to Israel. We have failed as a global society. This period will be remembered as even worse than the Holocaust. Because we are seeing…

Mark Austin: "Though whats caused starvation across the strip continues to be argued over, the pictures speak for themselves" I'd like to imagine Mark Austin feels shame reading out these words, but having watched his journalism throughout this genocide I doubt it.
Is the reason they proscribed PA because they knew they were bring nuclear weapons to RAF Lakenheath?

Ian Hislop, "It is pretty ludicrous we have got to a state where a man is arrested for carrying a joke? I mean, freedom of expression, freedom of speech, all those things we claim to be interested in?" Shame on @YvetteCooperMP and @Keir_Starmer - this isn't the change any of us…

"It's wrong to bomb a refugee camp but clearly if there is a military objective it can be legally justifiable". These were the words of David Lammy after Israel killed over 50 civilians in the Jabalia refugee camp in Gaza👇 declassifieduk.org/david-lammy-fr…

Your just being hysterical, I just walked up the Royal Mile and down Cockburn st, it's not overwhelmed and buzzing with a vibrancy. One little area, have a walk down a Close, or the New Town for pure tranquillity. The over tourism is a tired pathetic narrative spun by humbugs.
