Heather Mendick Can I suggest you keep an eye on Ashton Under Lyne where two Muslim independents a Muslim WP and a green are standing against a long term labour council, with a ten year plan to take it overThey also have a very good Muslim woman candidate to stand against Angela R.

Universities belong to students. This is why back in February we, as students and staff at UCL, renamed the student centre after alum Dr Refaat Alareer who was murdered in a targeted assassination by @israel.

Let it be a tale 🪁

The wife of Palestinian journalist Salem Abu Tayyur bids farewell to her husband and child, both killed by Israel with American missiles.

Incredible sights at UT Austin as the growing protest marches against retreating (and mace wielding) cops, to retake the south lawn they were forced from earlier. Protests will not stop until UT divests from all interests in Israel. Hartzell and Abbot can't intimidate us.

A physical memorial to the Holocaust is meaningless when our government are funding and arming Israel's genocide of Palestinians.

Yama Wolasmal, interviews Israeli spokesperson, David Mencer. This should be taught in all journalism schools. I spoke at the Norwegian Journalism Institute last year Pressens hus in Oslo & was so impressed with the rigour of their work.

If We Must Die by Claude McKay. One of the greatest poems in literary history. Take a few minutes to read this powerful poem written during the Harlem Renaissance and influenced by the writings and scholarship of W.E.B. DuBois.

If we must die, let it not be like

Heather Mendick Im pretty disgusted by wanking in public toilets too. So if caught short I now need to worry about whether Madeley was in the area. Great!

Richard Madeley was arrested for shoplifting two bottles of champagne from a supermarket. He said that he forgot to pay for them and was eventually cleared in the crown court. He later compared shoplifting to “wanking in a public toilet”.
He seems to be re-evaluating his views.

Liz from TrueAnon saying what we're all thinking about the genocide supporters: 'I can't entertain any of these people anymore. And I don't think anyone else should. Everything they're saying is in bad faith. All of it is wrong. And all of it's designed to f*cking hurt you.'

A conversation overheard on a London bus:
I saw a house in Leyton going for £3 million.
What kind of house?
Just a house. That's what's scary. You could win the lottery and still have to live in Leyton.

In South Africa, Northern Ireland, and innumerable other places where conflict led to negotiations and resolution, the people who were called terrorists by our politicians, who could not be broadcast by our media, who were imprisoned, are now viewed as leaders, even as inspiring.

I am disgusted by reports that the Home Office will begin rounding up and detaining asylum seekers, in preparation for deportation to Rwanda.

This is a terrifying, repulsive election stunt from a government devoid of humanity.

We will resist, together.
