So, Ben Jamal and I have been convicted for organising a peaceful protest against genocide in a bizarre decision by one judge.
This is a big attack on civil liberties.
We will appeal. We call for a massive mobilisation in support of the Palestinian people for Nakba on 16 May.

This is an extraordinary and shocking decision and a huge set back for civil liberties Watch @ChrisNineham speaking outside the court after guilty verdict

This is a disturbing, outrageous miscarriage of justice.
It menaces our already threatened hard-won democratic right to protest.
The verdict must be overturned.
Palestine Solidarity Campaign@PSCupdates
The judge has ruled that Ben Jamal and Chris Nineham are guilty on all charges. This is a disgraceful decision. We will follow up soon with a full statement. Our right to protest is precious, and is undermined by this decision, but the fight is not over.

The liberal center is “consistently wrong about everything”.
But the Brexit right have demonstrated their political judgement since 2016 by
• taking the UK of out the EU
• championing Boris Johnson
• remaining silent on Trump or Nethanyahu’s domestic policies and foreign wars
• amplifying Trump and Musk’s insults to Britain and Europe -
Ten years. More to come.
And we can see the world their judgement and predictions are willing into being.

Rory Stewart tells me that the Brexit right and far right have been proven “catastrophically wrong” about Brexit, Trump, and immigration. “But their brilliant trick is to say the liberal centre has no judgement.”

Keir Starmer's moral universe : he was quick to oppose the ban on the notoriously violent Maccabi Tel Aviv Football fans but is unable to articulate a response after Israel imposes a death penalty that only applies to Palestinian prisoners .
Keir Starmer@Keir_Starmer
This is the wrong decision. We will not tolerate antisemitism on our streets. The role of the police is to ensure all football fans can enjoy the game, without fear of violence or intimidation. bbc.co.uk/sport/football…

The absolute hypocrisy of the British government. Keir Starmer desperately tries to blame Iran and Russia for the UK's skyrocketing energy bills, completely ignoring that the Trump administration unilaterally started the disastrous war that shut down the global oil supply.

Streeting and Starmer are mimicking Vance and Trump. This is no way to treat dedicated NHS workers.
Threatening to cut training numbers is an attack on all of us and the NHS itself.

🔥 Farage roasted again by 🇺🇸 Rep Jamie Raskin
“This is the guy that delivered Brexit to the UK. How he shows his face in public after that debacle is beyond …Isn’t that considered a disaster in the history of England?
I cannot imagine a society that produced some of the greatest writers, poets and musicians… falling for a free speech imposter and charlatan like that.”
Absolutely 💯

What a disgraceful and patronising way to treat healthcare staff working hours on end to look after us all.
These training posts are vital for the future of our NHS. To use them as bargaining chips is appalling.
Time to end privatisation and fund the NHS properly instead.

The Green Party are on the cusp of being the leading political party in the polls.
Felt pretty emotional to get this reception from thousands of educators and support staff.
The tide is turning - let's do this! 💚

Any thoughts about this, Labour Friends of Israel?
Anything you'd care to say about what your 'friends' are doing?
Declassified UK@declassifiedUK
Israel's parliament has passed a law today authorising the death penalty - exclusively for Palestinians. There are over 9,300 Palestinians in Israeli detention. The executions will be carried out by hanging. Does @Keir_Starmer still consider Israel an ally?

The whole thing is ridiculous
Two people who through ‘birthright’ are titled ‘King’ & ‘Queen’
Will visit & legitimise a monster who is waging an illegal war and has the blood of thousands of children on his hands
Just abolish the bloody monarchy.

They literally want to remove your Human Rights.
They’re not hiding it. They are literally fucking telling you.
Politics in the big old year of 2026 is nothing more than an IQ Test, and if you’re considering voting for this, you’re frankly fucking stupid.

Only Reform UK will leave the ECHR and deport all illegal migrants. Enough is enough.

“Controversial” ? Seriously?
How about: “immoral”, “unethical”; contrary to all democratic norms”? How about: “in breach of international law”? How about “heinous”, “stomach-turning”, “irredeemably revealing of a sick society in need of help”?

Israel’s parliament has passed a controversial bill that seeks to impose the death penalty on Palestinians convicted of killing Israelis in acts of terror, but not on Jewish Israelis who kill Palestinians in similar circumstances. ft.trib.al/iabissb

Something really new is happening with the Greens.
They are being attacked by the right wing press, and hitting back. In fact, they basically say they aren’t credible as a source of news.
Meanwhile, they’re still gaining thousands of new members a week and climbing in polls.

Israel's legislators chose dispassionately to turn their Apartheid State, formally, into a Genocidal State. Not only is Israel a state formally demoting Palestinians to second class status but also one free to hang them, and only them, legally. nytimes.com/2026/03/30/wor…
