Israeli forces are minutes away from illegally intercepting the Global Sumud Flotilla.
One of the ships - the Ohwayla - sails under a UK flag. Onboard are humanitarians with vital aid, demanding a humanitarian corridor.
The Labour government must act NOW to protect UK citizens.

Today, I'm fasting and praying for the children, men and women of Gaza who are being starved and slaughtered.
Taking only water from 11pm last night until the same time tonight. I'm praying and calling for a peaceful and just future for all. #fastforgaza

It's quite simple.
You cannot say you oppose Israel's plan for the mass ethnic cleansing of Gaza if you keep providing them with the weapons they need to carry it out.
The government’s refusal to end all arms sales to Israel is becoming more egregious by the day.

I am really saddened by the level of vitriol and hatred being directed toward the trans community.
We are losing our common humanity. How hard is it to treat people with kindness and respect?
Trans people are human beings — and they deserve to live in dignity like anyone else.

Austerity has been discredited & 330,000+ deaths prove its deadly impact.
Yet benefit cuts are being briefed & disabled people are again made to pay the price for “calming” the markets.
Austerity with a red rosette is still austerity.
This isn’t the “change” people voted for.

King Charles used his power to block a ban on Fox Hunting and to make sure it is the joke ban we currently have.
