Imagine how many flags you could have if we taxed billionaires.
The man who literally commanded RAF Greenham Common during a period of intense protest and direct action thinks this is all very silly. Probably worth taking on board.

For 31 days, Israel has blockaded Gaza. All bakeries have been forced to shut down, including 25 run by the World Food Programme. Israel is using starvation as a tactic of genocide.
Israel is relentlessly bombing Gaza. Since early this morning, more than 40 Palestinians confirmed killed in Israeli attacks. Among the targets was an UNRWA clinic housing displaced people in Jabalia, killing at least 19. Children among the dead.
Israel just bombed people sheltering in an UNRWA clinic in Jabalia. 8 people have been killed, including 3 children. This is the violence that Starmer is arming.
