Mike Leigh, Alexei Sayle and Miriam Margolyes among 170+ British Jews calling on BBC to reject complaints about Gaza documentary
More than 170 British Jews have rallied to support the BBC for its broadcast on Monday of an exceptional documentary, Gaza: How to survive a warzone. The 59 minute film, about the lives of children in Gaza over the past year, won accolades from reviewers but has been pulled from BBC iPlayer following complaints from the Israeli Embassy and some of its UK supporters....

@koshercockney @johnmcdonnellMP The synagogue concerned has not changed location in the time these matches have taken place and previous ones have set off from Portland Place. The starting point for today's was Whitehall as the Met police didn't want it to start at the BBC.

@johnmcdonnellMP Don’t give us that “iT wAs tHe BBC” bullsh*t. Everyone knows you were trying to march past a synagogue

I spoke at demo & was part of a procession of speakers aiming to go to BBC to lay flowers commemorating the death of Palestinian children. We did not force our way thru, the police allowed us to go thru & when stopped in Trafalgar Square we laid our flowers down & dispersed.1/3
Metropolitan Police@metpoliceuk
The group that forced its way through the police line is now held at the north west corner of Trafalgar Square. Anyone in that group should now disperse and leave the area. Anyone remaining in breach of the conditions, or inciting further breaches, will be arrested.

I'm a Jew too.
I stood on stage again today at a peaceful protest in solidarity with the Palestinian people.
That's partly because all my years growing up in Jewish schools that taught me about social injustice and standing up for what's right.

I am a Jew. Today, because of the PSC hate march, I couldn't go into central London. Just as in 2023, 2024, and now in 2025, parts of London have effectively been made Judenfrei.

I can finally share this with you now that it's public. Dr Hussam, director of Kamal Adwan Hospital, was being directly threatened by the Israeli occupation army during the past weeks for talking to the media and constantly sharing updates with us and with you. Despite all of that, he was insistent on keeping everyone on the 'outside' informed.
According to the released medical staff in the Indonesian Hopsital, no one knows of his fate or that of the other medical staff who remained in Kamal Adwan Hospital. Yet, we are seeing reports from Al-Jazeera that some were burnt alive inside the hospital.
Please keep talking about Dr. Hussam and the rest of the medical staff of Kamal Adwan Hospital.

This today from @ONS: “In London, the average home was not affordable for any household income decile; in three other regions, the average home was only affordable to the top decile.” This in a nutshell is the UK housing crisis for younger people

BREAKING — HTS says a group of senior Assad regime officials and officers in the capital Damascus are coordinating with rebels to secure their defection.
“which has led to a state of loss of trust among the leaders of the regime's army, and the exchange of accusations of treason and cooperation with the revolutionaries”
