Join us in Luton this Saturday between 11 and 1 in calling for a Boycott of Barclays.
We have to keep up the pressure - Barclays is by far the biggest funder of, and investor in, Israeli arms manufacture and sales.
They must stop now, and end their complicity in genocide.
I have decided to resign from
@UKLabour
due to Keir Starmer’s stance on the Palestine crisis, and his recent statement on the current situation.
In fact, Keir Starmer has endorsed the Israeli government's actions unequivocally -

Did you know that the word "gauze" entered the English language in the 10th c. from Palestine?
It comes from 'Gaza', because silk mesh used to be imported from Gaza.

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.
Read for yourself.
🚨THIS SATURDAY🚨
Bring your family and friends. March for Gaza. Ceasefire now, no arms sales to Israel. Let’s make it a big one.
📍11AM, Wardown Park, Saturday 15th June
If Luton's MPs were serious about stopping the slaughter in Gaza, they would have joined us yesterday in loudly and unequivocally calling for a ceasefire.
They failed to show up - never forget.
Friends, please come to the rally at Luton Town Hall at 2 p.m. on Saturday, the 23rd of March:
Celebrate the flying of the Palestinian Flag on the Town Hall, and
Demand an immediate Ceasefire in Gaza.
We call upon the Jewish Israeli Society Warwick and their President, Angus Taylor, to cease their harassment of Taj, and demonstrate contrition by publicly apologising for, and withdrawing their baseless, vicious allegations.
We stand in full solidarity with our brother, Taj.
Just ridiculous.
As a local Councillor I will not be cowed by authoritarian top-down diktats and will continue to fully support
@PSCupdates
calls for a
#CeasefireNOW
