Tell that to the survivors in Gaza. Or the hunger striker dying in prison. Tell that to pensioners arrested for holding up a placard.

And that's just one issue.

Shall we try trans rights? Immigration? Any other culture war issues.

We don't vote Labour so they surrender to Farage and his fascists.

Shame on our democracy and justice system, to treat people protesting against UK government's support of a genocide, in this manner.

" One of the Palestine hunger striker, Umer Khalid's demand is the British government release information about the spy flights it sent over Gaza daily for nearly 2 years.

Starmer is allowing him to die rather than reveal the truth about Labour's participation in genocide.

Horror."
