I should be a core Labour voter. I care about inequality, public services, workers’ rights, and human rights.
Instead, for 3 years, they treated millions disgusted by the slaughter in Gaza as racists and did nothing to address wealth inequality.
Tonight: consequences.

One of my most popular articles ever included a long extract from a powerful closing speech by barrister Rajiv Menon during a Palestine Action trial in January. In the end, the jury refused to convict the six defendants.
Menon is now on trial for that closing speech – for reminding the jury that they had a 350-year-old right in law to follow their conscience in reaching a verdict, even if it meant defying a direction from the judge to convict.
Paradoxically, Menon joked in his speech that, because of that earlier legal principle, the judge, unlike his counterpart in 1670, could not lock them, the jurors, up were they to choose to follow their consciences.
Instead, the judge is seeking to lock up the barrister. Does 2026 qualify as an improvement on 1670?
It is believed that this is the first time a barrister has been tried for comments made to a jury in his closing speech. That should serve as a potent reminder of just us how authoritarian the current political moment is, and of how quickly long-established legal rights are being dismantled to protect British collusion in genocide.
Read my article – and the part of the speech for which Menon is being tried – here: jonathan-cook.net/blog/2026-01-1…

Fun fact: Artificial banana flavor uses isoamyl acetate, the same chemical bees release as an alarm signal 🐝🍌⚔️

At what point do we stop pretending our newspapers are ‘news’ and start calling them what they are…
Promotional pamphlets for the billionaires who own them and the agendas they’re selling.

I personally do not care about the feelings of anybody attending an illegal land sale.
You feel intimidated by protesters? I’m sorry to hear that. Don’t attend an illegal land sale.

The Jewish Bloc will be on this march as on all previous demonstrations against the annihilation of the Palestinian people and our government's complicity in it. Calls to suppress solidarity with Palestine in the name of Jewish safety implicate Jews in Israel's crimes. Banning protests may increase antisemitism; it will not curb it. @JVoiceLiberatio

🚨 ROUTE MAP - NAKBA 78 - March for Palestine United against the Far Right ⏰ Sat, 16 May, 12PM 📍 Exhibition Road, London Join us on Saturday May 16th to for the Nakba 78 march ✊ We will march to commemorate the Nakba – for 78 years, Palestinians have been subjected to a racist system of oppression including ethnic cleansing, settler-colonialism, apartheid and genocide. We march to reaffirm our commitment to the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people, including the refugees’ right to return home. We march against the far right in Britain who glorify Israel’s racism and brutality. Our unity and solidarity is stronger than their hatred and division. Stand with the Palestinian people whose demand for justice is as important now as ever before.

Zionists can scream anti semitism all day long. Reality check. Israel is a deadly beast that has lived off the pain and blood of others since the day its flag was first flown over the stolen land of Palestine. The world no longer buys it.

No apologies.

One of the most informative and politically important short videos you'll ever watch

It’s always a good day to talk about how Israel is inventing ancient history - but this week (with the news from Arizona…) is an especially good week for it.

We now have senior Police Officers openly attacking politicians and attempting to intervene in democracy.
This is a key signifier of Fascism.
As are:
- banning peaceful protest
- ending Jury trials
- demonising your political opponents as “terrorists”
- outlawing words.

@Kat_Says_Stuff @ThomasWillett9 Of course he won’t because he’s craven and we have proof that he will not say publicly that which he believes privately.
So what use is he to us? Fuck all!

Hi Wes Streeting given you managed to comment on this within an hour of it happening as a gay man, could you comment on the guy who tried to burn LGBTQ club goers alive on Saturday at Pink Punters

An attack on Britain’s Jewish community is an attack on us all and our way of life. This is happening again and again and again. I’d like to thank Hatzola, Shomrim, and the emergency services for their swift response - but we’ve got more to do as a government and as a country.

The fight against antisemitism and the fight against Islamophobia is the same fight.
A Jewish person being attacked is no different to a Muslim being attacked.
A synagogue being vandalised is no different to a mosque being vandalised.
We must be consistent in our principles.
