“Mass graves”
“Patients found naked with catheters and IV’s still attached”
“Doctors found, hands zip tied, shot in the head, still wearing scrubs and surgical gloves”
These are descriptors of genocide.
The US, UK and Germany are complicit in a genocide committed by Israel.
"Disturbing reports continue to emerge about mass graves in Gaza in which Palestinian victims were reportedly stripped naked with their hands tied, prompting renewed concerns about possible war crimes." --A new UN statement

We compared 2 interviews from Newsnight conducted 2 days apart - both by Kirsty Wark - one with Tory Amber Rudd, the other with Labour’s John McDonnell.
The difference is STARK.
Wark doesn’t interrupt Rudd ONCE.
She interrupts John 21 times...

Let me get this straight, if you spray graffiti on a statue you may be jailed for a decade. But if you install flammable cladding around peoples homes & 72 of them burn to death as a result, nothing happens? Paint comes clean in moments. You can’t bring people back from the dead.
Coward, liar and national embarrassment, Boris Johnson, sprinted out of the House of Commons today, rather than answer Labour’s Urgent Question on the massacre in Gaza yesterday.
The man has less backbone than an earthworm.

"Under no circumstances, whatever happens, will I allow the EU or anyone else to create any kind of division down the Irish Sea or attenuate our union" - Boris Johnson, Belfast, 2 July 2019
Why do the media keep calling what is happening in Palestine “a war”?
Palestine has no army. It has no navy & no air force. No iron dome missile defence. No rights as a nation. Israel has all of these, including the military and diplomatic support of the US
This is not a ‘war’
Owen Jones has been UNRELENTING in his coverage of Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza. No other UK journalist has even come close to his standard. He led the way. You can witness the raw emotion in his eyes when he reports, he is on point, quick to respond, facts at his fingertips
Why have ITV, the BBC & Sky not got their pool camera camped outside Keir Starmer’s house since the day he was elected Labour Party Leader, as they did for the past five years with Jeremy Corbyn? Genuine question.
The people who say if we don’t support Starmer we’ll get five more years of Tory rule are the same people who sabotaged Corbyn and gave us seven more years of Tory rule.

And remember, kids, when it comes to paying taxes the tories think you’re an adult at 16, when it comes to your minimum wage rate you’re not an adult until 25.
Asked about social care policy, the PM started slicing his finger across his throat in an effort to communicate to his friend Nick to change the subject!

Corbyn on
@Channel4News
said more in five minutes than Keir Starmer has said in 13 months! Starmer’s interview today was pure waffle. There is no comparison.
Keir Starmer is a conservative. His politics are conservative. His friends are conservatives. He is appealing for votes from conservatives - So why did he become a Labour MP 7yrs ago? Because REAL conservatives want to destroy the Labour movement by filling it with conservatives.
While her Majesty's opposition were busy fighting Socialism, Marcus Rashford has forced the Government into yet another embarrassing U-turn as Boris Johnson commits £396M to a new Covid winter grant scheme to tackle holiday hunger and child poverty.
Well done Marcus Rashford!
In March Margaret Hodge was all over the media expressing outrage that she believed Jeremy Corbyn and his 'inner circle' had been interfering in disciplinary matters relating to antisemitism. Now she's urging Corbyn to interfere in disciplinary matters.
What's the word for that?

Last night proved there are now only 20 MPs in her majesty’s opposition. Only twenty willing to do what is right. Only twenty who hold the law and human rights dear. Only twenty who care about justice for the little people. Only twenty worthy of our faith and support.

Emmanuel (‘sport shouldn’t be politicized’) Macron's desparation to get a positive photo op with the French squad, and Kylian Mbappe especially, bordered on abuse yesterday.
Mbappé clearly did not want to know. No eye contact, shrugging of Macron's embrace, minimal response
If Jeremy Corbyn has hired a former Russian spy to do online surveillance on Labour’s behalf, the
@BBCNews
would cover it, as would all the major newspapers. Why aren’t they covering Keir Starmer hiring a former Israeli spy to do the same?
Remember when Labour were behind the Tories in the polls under Corbyn, and the news media doorstepped Corbyn every single morning to ask when he was going to resign?
They also asked him the same thing at every interview he gave.
Why aren’t they doing the same to Starmer now?

Let’s pretend for a moment that it is easy to rig an election in the US - WHY would the Democrats rig THIS election, but not the previous one?
@BBCPolitics
What a joke. “Ex Labour voters” - one of them had never voted Labour. Another hadn’t voted Labour in a quarter of a century. Another hadn’t voted Labour since 2010. In 2017 Labour received 13 million votes. It should be building on THAT number - not abandoning that voter base.
@Peston
If the teachers had behaved badly, you would make that the story, rather than the reasons why they are marching. Why can’t you just report on the facts? The news does not need to be high drama, just factual. Surely with your expensive education, you can rise to the challenge.
Looks like BBC Newsnight have found a way of keeping Mick Lynch 'in his place'. Invite him on with 2 Tories, a Labour right wing MP and a liberal Bishop, then give him the least time of the 5 of them and waste half of it by pressing him about if he supports a General Strike.
"If it is true what's set out in this report actually happened, if it is, we lost a Labour Government, and actually we lost possibly, the best Labour Prime Minister in generations that we could have had, and that's a tragedy that, if it's true, I'll never forgive them for"
Four years ago today, Labour came within a few thousand votes across a few marginal seats of winning government.
@Keir_Starmer
promised an investigation into Labour Leaks claims that Labour HQ diverted campaign funds from those marginals to safe seats. 14 months - still no answer
American political scientist and prominent Jewish activist Norman Finkelstein specialises in the politics of the Holocaust. So who to trust the issue of anti-Semitism in the Labour Party, Tom Watson/Margaret Hodge etc... or Norm? It's a tough one.

This was not a “mistake”.
Israel has slaughtered 196 aid workers since October in similar circumstances. Why didn’t Israel learn from the 1st “mistake”? The 2nd? The 50th?
196 “mistakes”?
Famine is being used as a weapon to drive Palestinians out of Gaza. It is clear as day.
@Tony_Robinson
Perhaps if prominent Blairites hadn’t traduced Jeremy Corbyn over five years and party officials hadn’t sabotaged the chances of a Labour Government, we wouldn’t be in this mess? But you couldn’t have foreseen that your actions would enable a Tory victory could you? Could you?
Starmer has lied and cheated to get to this point in his political career whilst Andrew Feinstein, his opponent in Holborn & St Pancras, has a political track record of honest, authenticity and honour
Will people vote for a good man or a man who will say & do anything for power?
Why is wanting a well-funded public health system, housing availability to all, a fair days pay for a fair days work and dignity for the disabled and retired considered an “extreme left” position in the UK?
How could MPs from two such different parties find common political ground? We found the places where their voting records overlap.
Is it what you'd expected?

Starmer's Labour name their man.
Spare a thought for all those dedicated members of Islington North CLP who, having been disenfranchised by Starmer, will now be under enormous pressure to door knock, leaflet drop and generally big up Starmer's choice at the expense of their own

Why not be REALLY silly and ask him the reasons behind the strikes - listen to his answers and then ask him a relevant follow up question that has nothing to do with the 1970’s, 1980’s thunderbirds or Marxism.
The reason Labour are dropping these pledges is because they are growing their private donor list.
Environmental policies are not popular with big oil and gas.
Policies to improve NHS are not popular with private health.
Get it now?
Labour will not serve the people.
“We’re being honest about the fact we can’t afford to do all the things we would like to do”

83% of Labour voters agree with Jeremy Corbyn that a ceasefire in Gaza is needed now, not after the ethnic cleansing is completed.
(Poll: YouGov, 12-13Feb 2024)
The Tories have consistently said that the prospect of a Corbyn led government would see a run on the pound. As usual it looks like the truth was the opposite of what the Tories said...
@Keir_Starmer
You sacked her for voting against the Overseas Operations Bill - which is anti-veteran, anti-human rights, and effectively decriminalised torture - as she said at the time. You briefed the press that she was sacked while she was on TV so you could humiliate her - a 24 year old.
If schools were safe, doctors and scientists would say so. If schools were safe, Eton pupils would be returning - not just state schools outside of London. If schools were safe, the infection rate would reflect that. Why is our media failing to hold the gov to account on this?
The plot thickens... woman with ‘police’ hat hidden under hoodie tore banner that read ‘cops kill’ in half. Her accomplice then held it up in reverse - ‘kill cops’.
There’s 2 pics of the man holding the ‘kill cops’ banner across SM & they’re being circulated by Met police accts
@EtanSmallman
Labour has expelled more Jewish people since Starmer took over as leader than it ever came close to under Corbyn. An uncomfortable fact for you there.
Whatever you say now. However betrayed you feel. However angry you are. Starmer, Mandelson, Blair and the rest are certain that when you’re in the ballot box and the only realistic alternative to 5 more years of Tory rule is Labour, you will suck it up and vote to give them power

Corbyn is 100% correct. It was grossly exaggerated, as the Forde report confirmed. The claim that Labour were going to repeat the holocaust is a clear and blatant lie. What is it you are finding so difficult to comprehend about this?
@SkyNews
Calling it the “Hamas-led health ministers” makes it seem as though the numbers might be questionable, but the UN says they have checked their numbers after previous conflicts & they have “always been accurate”. So why continue to sew doubt by labeling them this disingenuous way?
@Telegraph
If they were “dutiful and patriotic to the end” why did they go to meet Hitler? Why did Churchill have them watched after the Nazi plot to install Edward as a puppet king of England?
BBC Question Time is the most unashamedly Government propaganda show on television. Panels and audiences stacked with angry nationalists. Barely a single scouse accent in the Liverpool audience. Fiona Bruce carefully steering the debate. Used to be good - Now just toxic

Read what Cooper is saying Priti. Khan was given an IPP sentence so his sentence COULD have been extended if he wasn’t rehabilitated enough for parole. You released him without even a Parole Board Assessment. Why? Because your government has cut prison services to the bone.
New Labour put its relationship with Fujitsu ahead of what was best for the British Public. Even when Post Masters started being arrested & they knew it was due to the software, they didnt intervene. Mandelson advises Starmer. Are these really people who should be in power again?
'You had the opportunity to kill the Fujitsu project, you chose not to - why not?'

Corbyn’s Labour defeated the Tory government 41 times - more than any other opposition - including the largest defeat in parliamentary history. Weird how quickly some people forget that.
‘I want to see the government succeed in this..but let’s be honest serious mistakes have been made’ THANK YOU

That’s the same Yvette Cooper who introduced Work Capability Assessments when she was a Labour Minister, removing dignity and incomes from disabled people - that Yvette Cooper?
BBC election stats Guru, Sir John Curtice says,
“Labour’s advance in this election is relatively modest”.
That’s a fact that will be drowned out by the noise of a Labour landslide, expected to be around a 160 seat majority.
Our electoral system is fucked!
Johnson was insistent in Parliament yesterday that his deal does not introduce a border between N.I. and the rest of the UK.
Labour's Keir Starmer had read the small print. He produced a clear and unambiguous set of facts to confirm what we all know about Johnson. He is a LIAR!
@BBCPolitics
That just isn’t true. It’s not a question of agreeing or disagreeing about what he did. He broke the rules. It’s clear to the entire nation. Pretending that he didn’t, insults the public’s intelligence.

@GeorgeAylett
Sad how you don’t understand the difference between ‘opposition’ and ‘government’. Corbyn has never been in government. He was in opposition. Therefore it was the Tories to blame for clas sizes, debt and redundancies. Blame those in the PLP who worked against Corbyn for 5 years.
If this was Corbyn, the media - including Sky - would be outside his house every morning shouting, “Why didn’t you report the DNA evidence to the CCRC like you were supposed to when you were DPP?”
Sir Keir Starmer has been urged to "say something" about the case of a man who spent 17 years in prison for a rape he did not commit before having his conviction overturned
Starmer is only getting away with this coup because those controlling the British media are allowing it to go unquestioned. A vote for this Labour Party is a vote against the interests of ordinary people. Do NOT reward them. Find the best alternative to Tory & Labour in your area
@itvnews
Why is ITV blaming the public & ignoring the trains packed with people forced to go to work everyday, the airports that have been a Covid free-for-all for the past ten months, the “closed” schools at 50% capacity, the massive expansion of the definition of the term ‘keyworker’?
@siennamarla
So on that basis, it’s clear the PLP did NOT take issue with Trevor Phillips being reinstated. Good to know labours disciplinary procedures are entirely political rather than dictated by justice. Also clear that the EHRC recommendations are not being followed at all.
The way Julie Etchingham reframed this audience question on Gaza was shameful.
He asked “what should happen next to stop these awful scenes we’re seeing in Gaza?”
He didn’t ask about October 7.
He asked about the 250 days of carnage Israel has inflicted on Gaza since October 7.
