I have a friend in the States who’s a percussionist. Played with the late Ritchie Havens. A great artist and a genuine person. One of her dearest friends has shared this testimony from Minneapolis. It is real and genuine, and it is our duty to share it with the world.

If the Palestine Action hunger strikers die - which they could do at any moment, as they are now very close to the end - it will be the government that killed them. Today’s column explains why. Please share, and write urgently to your MP.

Just got back from HMP Bronzefield.

Most importantly: Qesser Zuhrah was transferred to hospital via the ambulance she’d been demanding since 5pm yesterday.

David Lammy, Keir Starmer — you are on the brink of causing the deaths of multiple young Palestine hunger strikers.

Absolutely right.
It’s clear to anyone paying attention that Farage won’t investigate the Russian infiltration of Reform.

The Prime Minister must step up and launch a national investigation.

Fuck #Labour!

They really don't give a toss, do they?
I wish I was surprised. Buried in this Budget is a plan to slash the Digital Services Tax, giving a multi-billion tax cut to US tech giants and the likes of Elon Musk.

That's right, cutting taxes for the world's richest man while hiking them for millions of hard-working Brits.
