Richard Sanders, producer of Al Jazeera’s Labour Files, reflects on the investigation's impact and argues that its findings on the handling of anti-Semitism allegations inside the Labour Party were met with what he describes as "absolute omertà" from much of the British mainstream media. He argues that when investigations couldn't be effectively discredited or debunked, they are instead largely ignored. Based on one of the largest leaks of internal documents in British political history, The Labour Files examined thousands of emails, WhatsApp messages, disciplinary records and internal party documents to investigate Labour's internal operations and weaponisation of anti-Semitism during Jeremy Corbyn's leadership (2015–2020). The investigation argued that senior party officials ran a covert campaign to undermine Corbyn's elected leadership, using internal party structures to sideline members, block candidates, suspend constituency parties and shape the party's direction. @PulaRJS | @DoubleDownNews | @j_alfarra | @HalaHanina | @AlnaouqA

Fergie Chambers, an heir to the Cox family fortune and a major donor to pro-Palestinian and left-wing causes, was arrested in Ibiza on Friday 10 July 2026 at the request of the US Department of Justice. According to a sealed indictment reviewed by @TheGrayzoneNews, he faces extradition to the United States on charges of "international money laundering...with the intent to provide material support to and resources to foreign terrorist organisations.” The charges carry a potential sentence of up to 30 years. The indictment reportedly presents no evidence that Chambers funded such organisations, pointing only to transfers from US banks to Tunisia, where he had relocated and invested in businesses, social initiatives and the Club Africain football team. His partner, Stella Schnabel, describes the case as political persecution linked to his support for Palestinians in Gaza.

"Palestine was there... but the Palestinians were absent from the story," Scottish historian William Dalrymple tells Palestine Deep Dive's Ahmed Alnaouq as he reflects on the version of history he was taught growing up in Britain. Dalrymple recalls school textbooks that taught that Israel had "made the desert bloom"—a narrative illustrated with images of olive trees and Jaffa oranges, portraying the land as having been transformed from "sand and desert" into a fertile country. But what do historical records, ancient texts, archaeology and DNA research actually tell us about the Palestinians? In this sit-down interview, Dalrymple explores the deep history of the Palestinian people, arguing that they have too often been erased from mainstream narratives about Palestine. We discuss how history is taught in Britain, the origins of the name Palestine, the continuity of the people who have lived on the land for thousands of years, and why understanding the past is essential to understanding the present. @DalrympleWill | @AlnaouqA

“Football is the most important thing in the unimportant things in life.” In a conversation about the strange power of football, Palestine Deep Dive’s Ahmed Alnaouq and our chat show guests Andrew Feinstein and Ahmed Masoud reflect on why a game that is ultimately “meaningless” in the grand scheme of things can still matter so much.  For people who spend their lives engaging with heavy subjects, football becomes a rare escape, a space to become completely absorbed, even if only temporarily.

“They’re gonna keep us in ghettos. They’re gonna make life as hard as possible. They’re gonna make us beg to leave.” Palestinian author and academic Ahmed Masoud argues that the devastation in Gaza is part of a wider strategy aimed at making life unlivable and forcing Palestinians into a choice between displacement and survival. “My personal opinion with Gaza is that they’re done with Gaza. I think this is what they want,” Masoud says, describing what he sees as a deliberate process of creating conditions that would lead to a so-called “voluntary” exit, as described by several Israeli ministers. “What they want now is the West Bank,” he adds. Watch Ahmed Masoud’s full remarks on Israeli apartheid and the future of Gaza. Ahmed Masoud | @andrewfeinstein | @HalaHanina | @AlnaouqA

“Call God, habibi. You’re from Gaza. I can do anything I want to you.” Gaza-born author and academic Ahmed Masoud recounts being denied entry through the Allenby Bridge while travelling to the occupied West Bank on his British passport as part of a delegation of international writers attending PalFest.  While the rest of the group was permitted to enter, Masoud says he was detained, questioned for hours, and ultimately turned back, despite being the only Palestinian on the delegation. @andrewfeinstein | Ahmed Masoud | @HalaHanina | @AlnaouqA

“It's now a kiss of death to be known as a supporter of Labour Friends of Israel.” Richard Sanders of Double Down News argues that Zionism was deeply embedded within the leadership of centre-left parties in both the UK and the US. He also says that attitudes towards Israel and Zionism are now shifting rapidly within British politics, claiming that what was once mainstream in the Labour Party is increasingly becoming politically toxic. In a video message earlier today, PM-in-waiting Andy Burnham said that his Labour Party “didn’t get it right” on Gaza. “I am sorry about that," he added. "The response has too often not been good enough. We need to do better.” @j_alfarra | @PulaRJS | @DoubleDownNews | @HalaHanina | @AlnaouqA

"This is a crucial moment to isolate Israel like never before." Anti-apartheid activist and author Andrew Feinstein argues that sport cannot be separated from politics, drawing parallels between the international sporting boycott of apartheid South Africa and calls for action against Israel’s participation in international football. @andrewfeinstein | Ahmed Masoud | @HalaHanina | @AlnaouqA
