Israel’s apartheid over Palestinians is a crime against humanity. There is no place for it in a world that upholds equality and the right to live with dignity. To uphold human rights everywhere, we must end apartheid rule over millions of Palestinians.

Our official new report looks at the decades-long suffering of Palestinians under Israel’s rule. We've concluded that Israel’s treatment of Palestinians throughout Israel & the Occupied Palestinian Territories amounts to apartheid.

“If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse, and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality”

Three Tory MPs were suspended for just one day after trying to influence a judge in a sexual assault case.
This is the same punishment I received for calling Boris Johnson a liar, which we all know to be true.
How is this fair? Things have to change!

The Tories NHS Bill fails on every conceivable level
▪️It enshrines profit seeking companies at the heart of our NHS, putting wealth before people’s health
▪️The dangers of sliding toward a US style private insurance healthcare system cannot be overstated

I just voted against the Tory NHS Corporate Takeover Bill.
Tory MPs voted it through.
This is just the first step. They will bring this privatisers' charter back for another vote after summer.
We need to build a massive national campaign to fight this every step of the way.

Do not tell me that addressing the existential threat of climate change is radical. Failing to save the planet from climate disasters is radical.

When a child in the global south dies after drinking poisoned water, when a mother buries her child who has died of malnutrition & you voted Tory in December 2019, remember Johnson & Sunak lied to you when they promised to protect the funds for the poorest in the world. Sickening

Saying this as clearly as I can: Boris Johnson is removing the Covid restrictions because he WANTS the NHS to collapse, so that he has a political excuse for privatising it. Nothing else, not even stupidity, can explain what's going on.

Today in Parliament I introduced my Israel Arms Trade (Prohibition) Bill with cross-party support.
This Bill would stop the British Government from authorising arms sales to Israel.
We must end the UK's complicity in Israel's persecution of the Palestinian people.

Because Israel believes Palestinians are disposable, less human. They are committing war crimes paid for by U.S. taxpayers with no accountability. The apartheid and killings must stop.

Israeli airstrikes on May 16 turned three Gaza apartment buildings into rubble and killed 44 civilians. We found that Israel dropped heavy bombs without warning and with limited intelligence about what they were attacking. nyti.ms/3dbMlSQ
