People who voted in & support the racist & narcissist #Trump have been hoodwinked whilst the psychopath continues with his threats & illegal wars. Then there's #Netanyahu who is driven by an imperialist agenda by bombing and killing innocent communities. He is heading up a #genocide with impunity.

People advocating for the understanding of tourette syndrome have chosen not to understand the impact of racist words, whilst those impacted by racism have jumped to conclusions with no research. We need tolerance on both sides. We also need proper apologies from ALL involved incl. BBC & Bafta.

Aggressor is bombing an oppressor but is being called a saviour. Hypocrisy of Israel & USA bombing Iran, when Israel has committed a genocide & the US oppresses its' own people through draconian policies like ICE. Israel & the US don't care about the Iranian people. This is imperialism in action.

Black, White & Asian men of privilege, power & wealth pitting White working class men against Black & Asian working class men are the ones you/ we need to be careful & cautious about. They know nothing about the working class struggle. And majority are members of Reform UK.

Complaints of racism were often recast as “banter” or personality clashes, protecting perpetrators and leaving those who spoke up accused of “playing the race card” or being “too sensitive”. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025... 2025 within the Met Police Force might aswell be the 1980s. #Racism

We must sever all diplomatic ties with the genocidal apartheid state of Israel immediately. Expel the ambassador. Close the embassy. As apartheid South Africa was isolated, so too must Israel be — a pariah state. We’ll march until Palestine is free, from the river to the sea.

#Labour has legitimised a divisive culture like we never thought a Labour government would. From passing draconian legislation, leading to the aggressive arrests of innocent protestors calling for a stop to a genocide to spreading anti-migrant/ anti-refugee rhetoric. Voters will NEVER forget.

British government has a history of silencing legitimate protest and resistence #RowlattAct whilst supporting attacks on the innocent #JallianwalaBagh British governments will always have colonial oppression in their DNA. Doesn't matter if it's a Labour or Tory government - both are the same.

UK would not be the country it is without it's looting of countries like India and over 100 years of migration. It would be much worse of. Colonialism and commonwealth has led to British born children of migrants like me. We have contributed significantly to the country we call home - England.

Don't believe a word David Lammy said on the radio this morning about the UK government not being complicit in the genocide in Gaza. Labour is bringing in draconian laws to silence pro-Palestine & anti-genocide protests. We will continue to protest for a STOP to the ethnic cleansing in #Gaza

The least decent human beings should be feeling is a rage of words against a genocidal regime and the governments who are shifting the blame from the perpetrator to the protestor. Those being attacked for challenging murderers & advocating human rights will be remembered for doing the right thing.

Yes to EVERYTHING @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social is saying in the House of Commons as part of the 'Gaza (Independent Public Inquiry) Bill'. PM and certain members of the Labour Government are complicit in the crimes against the Palestinian people by arming Israel & not enforcing sanctions against Israel.
