EXC: Labour have been branded 'deeply authoritarian' after reports emerged that the UK Government is set to proscribe Palestine Action 👇
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.
Useful reminder that Israel is believed to have 90 nuclear weapons. Also, Israel is not party to the nuclear non proliferation treaty, and has not accepted IAEA safeguards on some of its principle nuclear activities. But yes, only Iran is the rogue state...
@caitoz.bsky.social = truth teller‼️"The only reason they get to call the Gaza holocaust a "war" is bec they're using bombs and bullets...If they were using gas chambers to kill the exact same number of people with the exact same motive, all it would change is public perception of what's happening."
Absolutely fucking horrendous. The state cannot handle groups with influence disrupting their genocidal plans. Fuck Labour, and fuck Keir Fucking Starmer.

You know what's "not appropriate" Keir?! Arming a fucking genocide... Fuck The Sun and solidarity with Palestine Action. 🇵🇸
I'll tell you what's inappropriate Keir. Supporting a genocidal regime by supplying them arms and moving your air force to support their instigation and unnecessary war on top of the genocide. Tiocfaidh lá na Phalaistín! Mó daoine de dhath! Mó madraí! Mo Chara! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
