Palestine solidarity campaigner and political prisoner Heba Muraisi has reached 67 days on hunger strike without food. Bobby Sands died on day 66 during the Irish republican prisoners' 1981 hunger strike. The British government must act now to offer a way to stop opponents of genocide from dying

It's horrifying but grimly believable that the British government, including 'prison reformer' Lord Timpson, is willing to allow young people (who have not been convicted of an offence) to die of starvation rather than talk to them www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
Let’s be clear: if the Palestine Action hunger strikers die, the government will bear moral responsibility | George Monbiot
The three remaining hunger strikers have been convicted of nothing. Yet with astonishing cruelty, ministers refuse to listen to their reasonable demands, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

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.

Most importantly, Miller is wrong. Plenty of stable societies existed that did not conform to his "iron laws". Such "laws" might apply, however, to centralised, hierarchical political systems, especially those dominated by psychopaths like Stephen Miller.
"We live in a world, in the real world … that is governed by strength, that is governed by force, that is governed by power. These are the iron laws of the world since the beginning of time."
And with these words, Stephen Miller damns his soul to hell for all eternity.

Only one of the main parties has had a leader that meaningfully challenged the Thatcherite consensus since 1979 and our establishment media was allowed to suggest "he'd reopen Auschwitz" without consequence. Thatcher walked so every PM that followed could jog a little faster.
I'm writing about the Palestine Action hunger strikers at the moment, any of whom could die at any moment, and the astonishing media and government silence surrounding them. The Establishment seems to have become even crueller than when Thatcher was PM.

So, to clarify, spray-painting a plane is terrorism, holding a sign to support the organisation those that spray-painted the plane were members of is terrorism, but taking a foreign head of state hostage needs to wait for a press conference from the hostage taker for nuance?
Keir Starmer says he wants to establish facts by *watching Donald Trumps press conference.*
People said giving him a second state visit was a genius move of strategy - really seems to have paid off.
Special relationship - alive and kicking.
