Hackney Divest Camp
@hackney4pal
We camped in Hackney Town Hall Square for two months in 2024. We continue to campaign for our Council to divest from Israel's occupation & to untwin from Haifa.
#HackneyVotesPalestine2026 leaflets now in the Narrow Way in Hackney
The Handala has just been illegally intercepted by the Zionist entity of Israel while carrying baby formula to starving children
An epic day with some amazing people. You can feel and hear how much people loathe Labour and are crying out for something new.
We've leafleted every street in Homerton today ✊❤️
🙏🏾 for making #HackneyVotesPalestine2026 bigger than ever Over 60 people involved today This was us at 1.20pm 🇵🇸
This isn’t mismanagement. It’s deliberate famine.
🧵 Let’s talk about the lie that “the aid is there, but the UN won’t distribute it.” Here’s what’s actually happening at the Gaza border — and why Palestinians are still starving.
Very moving to be gathered with hundreds of Hackney residents outside our Town Hall yesterday calling for action against Israel's genocide in occupied Palestine.
FTAO @mayorofhackney
Israeli historian and genocide scholar Raz Segal told us on October 13, 2023 Gaza was a textbook case of genocide. If you aided and defended it for 22 months, it doesn’t matter what you say now, you’re complicit. You can’t say you didn’t know, and the rest of us will not forget.
Tomorrow #HackneyVotesPalestine2026 Campaign day 1-3pm Outside the Tesco on Morning Lane
Imagine writing this in the middle of a genocide whilst people are being starved by a country whose Apartheid city you are twinned with? Gutless and shameful.
This is @mayorofhackney on Insta, claiming she wants to but can't divest from Israel's military operations. 1. It's not military operations, it's genocide. 2. The block on divestment is not David Lammy but your own pension committee. 3. You support Hackney's twinning with Haifa.

Most local politicians haven’t shown an iota of support for, or solidarity with Palestinians subject to Israel’s cruel genocide. Silence is complicity. Many of us are appalled by this. We don’t have to put up with them. Join us on 2nd action day for #HackneyVotesPalestine2026

After finding Israel in breach of its human rights obligations, the EU voted to do absolutely nothing. As @dvronin puts it, Brussels has been "appallingly consistent throughout this genocide" trib.al/eR4VPF2
🙌 Great initiative from this East London borough. Solidarity groups in other boroughs should copy. When it’s time to vote, find out what prospective councillors have said & done about genocide in Gaza. If they can’t stand up for human rights there, they aren’t going to here.

“Please take action…We are dying of hunger…We are the same as any kids all across the globe.” Baniyas, the eloquent 10-year-old daughter of @MaramGaza, has shared a devastatingly heartbreaking message to the world as the famine stalks the besieged territory.
