I co-founded the Learning Cooperative where we organised many Irish, Yiddish and Kurmanji courses. We also ran an event called “Confronting Israeli Apartheid in British courts.” I’d be happy to have a constructive dialogue with you about speaking Irish. I’m not afraid of how you feel.







Apparently Douglas Murray wants to “deport, deport, deport” me (to Ireland? To Palestine? He doesn’t specify). I’d be very happy to have a respectful discussion with him about why he’s wrong to attack lawyers in this way, and why he’s wrong to oppose Hamas’ application.






I’m very grateful to my friends and comrades in the International Association of Democratic Lawyers for releasing this solidarity statement. It reaffirms the core principle that lawyers must not be associated with their clients, something Robert Jenrick would do well to remember.
