Each week that Palestine Action remains proscribed, a few dozen (of the more than 2700 people arrested) are summoned to plea hearings.

Some don’t attend, some refuse to plea, and some make speeches.

None have pleaded guilty.

Does anyone know when Turning Point's event in NI will be so I can put my drawing lessons to work on a big Charlie Kirk placard with a very specifically placed hole cut out of it
Failed and disgraced ex-MP Ian Paisley Jr wants a N. Ireland branch of Turning Point USA. Turning Point UK have embraced 'unapologetic street fascism'. This article shows exactly who an NI Turning Point would target and by what means. Erica Kirk, TP USA and their far-right ideology are not welcome.

watching hundreds of democrats on here SUDDENLY shocked by the thermobaric bombs dropped in Gaza, things that Palestinians have told us were happening for 2 YEARS,

and immediately use that shock to blame people for “not voting for Harris“ because this “wouldn’t have happened under her”

Always a great sign for how things are going in your country when 21-year-olds are like “hey, I innovated a system to play bagpipes in tear gas”
Jack Duffy attaches a respirator to his bagpipes to play through tear gas. “I always play it whenever the police retreat because it's like, ‘You fucking ran while we stayed,’” he says.

This sounds like it will be utter pandemonium but I am absolutely considering booking the week off work for it
Belfast is hosting the Comhaltas Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann, "the world's biggest celebration of Irish music and culture" and they are expecting 800k people to turn up for it. As a result, they are discussing turning Ormeau Park into a camp site.

Man who is making us complicit in a genocide pinky promises us that undermining Irish neutrality and banging the drum to buy Yank weapons definitely isn't in pursuit of anything evil
