Vandals
@Hevallo Free Rojava & Rojhelat!@Hevallo
The Kurdish Community, after 8 days of non-stop resistance were able to re-enter their community centre today only to discover the wanton vandalism of the @metpoliceuk who smashed doors and stole charity money and computers. The community centre's cat, 'Reso' looked traumatised by the whole affair! #HandsOffKurds

After the world's worst industrial crime at Bhopal (1984) in which 16,000 people died during & after, 500,000 injured & 37,000 permanently disabled - when Indians campaigned to demand justice, Mother Teresa told them to stop and "just forgive". Her abhorrence beggars belief.

This sounds like an Adolf Eichmann quote
Police Spies Out of Lives@out_of_lives
HN122 statement states: “In my view then and now, it was an honour to be thought capable of gathering intelligence because this was the pinnacle of Met police Special branch work”. These #spycops lived (and still live) in a parallel universe. #InstitutionalisedCorruption

Surely now you must owe an apology to Corbyn. Do you really still think his opposition to “the continuing dispossession of the Palestinian people”, was motivated by antisemitism?

@rapclassroom Interesting that Aaron Bastani is also now tweeting about the 'importance of English identity'
English
The worse kind of identity politics. This comes just weeks after racist riots in England, where people chanted ‘you’re not English anymore’. And Jenrick has nothing to say about this.

Thinking back to this important edition of @Race_Class on mental health and racism, irr.org.uk/article/race-m… the Cync event @RoyalAlbertHall on Thursday will touch similar issues in an interesting, global context @CSmithMT royalalberthall.com/tickets/events…

Massive response across the country to counter the hate "protests". The real Britain reasserting itself against the tiny minority trying to terrorise us. Highlights on this thread.

Hundreds out in the west end of #Newcastle. Amazing show of support from the local community protecting refugee support services. No sign of the far right here! #Riots #Solidarity #NoPasaran #RefugeesWelcomeHere

“We are can assure you the White-English are a tolerant people and that the vicious racism expressed in the riots, ‘bad apples’ of the police force or by editors and journalists of the mainstream media, are in fact the views of an extremist minority.” 2005 angrysampoetry.wordpress.com/2013/12/21/an-…
