Eurovision was once a highlight of my year, but the organization has made clear it will happily politicize the event to support and normalize Israel's genocide. Deep respect to Ireland and Slovenia for taking the lead and refusing to be part of that.

You can't call yourself "a prize for LGBTQ+ literature" and longlist a self-proclaimed terf. Anyone can give any prize to anyone they like, of course. But don't pretend you're a prize for my community when you're platforming someone who's actively fighting against it.

We’ve turned their street into Jabaliya camp in Gaza. A genocide is happening, but the Labour government is supplying weapons, intelligence and diplomatic cover to the perpetrator. Protesting this is not terrorism.

Absolutely ridiculous response to a patently true statement. Israel IS committing genocide in Gaza and no attempt to suppress and criminalize those speaking out against it will change the fact that millions of people every day know this and will work to stop it
Police in Canterbury today informed a protestor that the phrase "Israel is committing genocide in Gaza" could be considered a declaration of support for Palestine Action and therefore a terrorism offence.
