On Saturday, I spoke at a rally in Southend... I expected hostility (we got it). I said what I needed to say. It's a shame that the people hurling racist abuse and swearing at us didn't listen to even a few of my words. You can, though! Here they are.

Ah, if you don’t believe it when I say it, listen to Israeli Jew Avi Shlaim. As I’ve said countless times, once the scales fall from your eyes, you realise everything Israel wants you to believe is a lie. (Psst, the name for this is propaganda.)

It amazes me that some people are still unwilling to condemn Isra3l or even agree when speaking that it’s a state that’s inherently violent. People’s blindness & subconscious (?) racism is truly astounding.

Today, thousands of us demonstrated outside the US embassy with a message for Donald Trump: hands off Gaza.
The resilience of the Palestinian people will not be broken — and nor will our solidarity.
We will be here for as long as it takes until there is a free and independent Palestine.

Outlandishly opaque statement from @societyofauthors.bsky.social: anonymous bookshop, no people, no jailing, no mention of locations or police forces, bizarre & irrelevant assertion about democracy
WTF is going on there? “Thoughts and prayers” would be better

Is this a statement or a guessing game, @societyofauthors.bsky.social?
"We are concerned by recent press reports on the police raid of an educational bookshop in a country which is governed by a parliamentary democracy."

British publishing has not exactly showered itself with glory over solidarity with writers under fire in these gen0cidal times—so when some good emerges, it deserves encouragement.
Emergency appeal by @saqibooks.bsky.social. Support it.
