Starmer is a hypocrite.

Zarah Sultana MP@zarahsultana.bsky.social · last yr.

In 2003, anti-war activists broke into RAF Fairford to stop US bombers heading to Iraq. Keir Starmer defended their actions and said it was justified to prevent war crimes. Now his government is banning Palestine Action for doing the same. The Prime Minister is a hypocrite.

Keir Starmer. Lying hypocrite.

Trans rights are human rights

Putin and Netanyahu are war criminals. Why are they still on the loose? They should be in jail.

In recent months, the Israeli military has attacked Lebanon, Syria, and now Iran. STOP ARMING ISRAEL

While starving and then killing Palestinians as they risk their lives to access food, the Israeli military is simultaneously invading the entire occupied West Bank and now, bombing Iran, risking regional war.

This is what happens when the US gives unlimited weapons and funding to the Israeli government.

Omar Baddar@omarbaddar.bsky.social · last yr.

All of this was avoidable, if only the US could for once say “no” to that rogue, nuclear-armed, genocidal regime whose leaders are wanted by the International Criminal Court, which is intent on burning down the entire region in pursuit of land theft & unquestioned regional dominance.
