What has Yvette Cooper’s proscription of Palestine Action done to this country?
Beyond absurd. It’s extreme authoritarianism. These police should be arresting rapists & crooks, not neglecting those duties to spend time arresting citizens standing against genocide.
It undermines police and the law.

Rayner fought for workers: sick pay, maternity rights, protection from unfair dismissal
Farage and his MPs voted it down
Rayner gets binned over £40k in stamp duty
Farage dodges £44k, shrugs & strolls on
The mega wealthy win again.

Here's how the real two-tier Britain works:
1. Whatever Nigel Farage says, however stupid, is looped and discussed by the media, while left-wing voices are treated as noises off.
2. Tiny far-right protests get massive airtime, while 10s of 000s gathering for Palestine or green causes are ignored.🧵

NEW: Today’s front page of the UK Daily Express is significant.
Few right-wing newspapers have been as pro-Israel and supportive of the Israeli military than this newspaper.
It seems even they now draw the line at the intentional starvation of children.
Disgracefully late, but significant still.
