Last night Turner Prize 2024 winner Jasleen Kaur used her acceptance speech to stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people, to demand an end to institutional complicity in Israels genocide & to call for an immediate arms embargo.

Israel is allying to ISIS affiliated criminal gangs to starve Gaza.

You can read about this in the Israeli press.

Why isn't this splashed on front pages in the West?

If you bring central London to a halt in order to campaign against catastrophic climate change then you're a "barmy" eco "fanatic" who deserves to be locked up.

If you do the same to hang on to your multimillion pound inheritance tax exemption then you're a brave freedom fighter defying the odds

I've just finished reading Filiu's book, "Gaza", and would highly recommend anyone take some time to read it 📚
#Gaza
#FreePalestine
In his essay “Why Gaza Matters” for Jean-Pierre Filiu, who wrote a *the* book on Gaza, explain why “As it has been for centuries, Gaza is once again at the center of a major war but also the key to peace and prosperity in the Middle East.”
A must read:

Please, if you are able, support Independent bookshops.

They are the literary & social hubs of our high streets and communities.

Without their continued support, we simply wouldn't be around to publish .

Thank you.

Many people think that as you get older, you care less about politics. But it’s not true.

You start thinking a lot more about the kind of world you want to leave behind. You want it to be better than the one you were born into.

We all have a personal legacy in mind. Mine is to outlive Trumpism.

So the richest man in the world spent $130 million to elect Donald Trump.

Now he's being put in charge of a "government efficiency" agency while controlling corporations with billions in government contracts that are also under federal investigations.

See how this works?

On this Independence Day for Palestine - it stands in the shadow of 45,000 people who have been murdered by the Israeli government.

It stands in the shadow of a brutal occupation & an ongoing assault that feels like peace is a distant dream.

The UK must end arms sales now.

The new Defense Secretary says women shouldn’t be in combat. The new Ambassador to Israel says the West Bank and Gaza don’t exist. The new Homeland Security Secretary is a dogkiller. The new SoS had a dick-measuring contest with Trump. Musk—who secretly talks to Putin—has an illegal job.

Elon Musk is the leading candidate to become the world's first trillionaire by 2027.

The world's 10 richest people now have more wealth than the poorest 4 billion people - half the world's population - and wealth inequality continues to soar.

We need to fundamentally remodel our economic system.
