Hello,
Trying to put pressure on our supposed representatives to release William Plastow on bail. Also drawing attention to the RAF role in this appalling genocide. Would appreciate your help to circulate the email we're asking people to send in support?

Concentrating over a million Palestinians in camps as the Israeli invade,is mass murder. Compelling so many into close confines without enough food, water, vaccines & medical aid will expose many to disease & starvation.That's murder. #NetanyahuWarCriminal

William Plastow is set to spend 21 months in jail before he goes to trial, despite a custody limits being six months.
He's been arrested for a non-violent protest challenging the UK's links to Israel's assault on Gaza - lets get him home.

Since Dec 2023 the UK ran near-daily Intelligence Surveillance Reconnance (ISR) sorties from RAF Akrotiri over Gaza to ‘locate hostages’; trackers estimate ~600+ sorties.

Last chance to show support & say thanks to the members of #PalestineAction. Ridiculous & dangerous that this very message after midnight could result in years in prison. Keir Starmer you are the facilitator of terrorism with your greed & ambition. You're so bad, you make the Tories look good.

🇬🇧 The UK is complicit in the genocide unfolding in Gaza.
Since Dec 2023, RAF surveillance planes have flown 500+ spy flights over Gaza. These aren’t routine—they’re targeting ops. And what comes next? Bombs.

Labour has gone to war with already desolate NHS community mental health services. And today's BBC headlines, side by side.
Please go to the anti-austerity protest in London on June the 7th.

Stop the genocide.

We voted to accept a settlement to our 'Safer Staffing Strike'. We receive £1 million of recurrent funding for 21 staff across our small Service. A significant achievement against a backdrop of a Labour government overseeing compassion devoid & financially illiterate austerity across the country.

48% of children in Manchester live in poverty, and that's up 16% since 2015.
Poor nutrition means UK children are on average, three centimeters shorter than other European kids.
