It was an honour to speak at the University of the West Indies in Jamaica.

It’s time for Britain to confront the legacies of slavery and colonialism.

Reparations are about truth. They are about justice. That means building a more equal future by learning from the past.

This weekend, we marched once again in solidarity with the Palestinian people.

We sent a message to our government: if you knowingly supply weapons to a government whose leader is wanted for war crimes, the long arm of international law will extend to you too.

83% of plant life in Gaza has been destroyed.

Israel's genocide is making Gaza uninhabitable - and our media outlets are complicit by suppressing the truth.

83% all plant life in Gaza destroyed: two devastating reports on Israel's genocide
Two reports detail the hideous consequences of Israel's Western-facilitated genocide. And yet the Western media bury or ignore them altogether.

Labour's latest attack on welfare is a disgraceful assault on the dignity of the sick and disabled.

If the government really wanted to crack down on people "gaming the system", they would go after tax dodgers hoarding our country's wealth.

Donald Trump has appointed multiple pro-Israel fanatics to his administration.

Biden already facilitated Israel's genocide from day one.
Trump will escalate it further.

Donald Trump's fanatical pro-Israeli appointments should terrify you
Some were beguiled by the idea that Donald Trump is a peace candidate - but his appointments underline a commitment to escalate Israel's genocidal onslaught.

Struggling under crippling debt and losing £100,000 every day, it is questionable how long GB News can remain a channel.

But it has never been British (based in Dubai) and it has never provided news.

No wonder Keir Starmer has gone quiet.

The ICC arrest warrants against Israeli leaders leave him exposed as an accomplice to genocide.

Keir Starmer damned by Israel arrest warrants
Starmer used his reputation as a human rights lawyer to win the Labour leadership. The ICC arrest warrants expose him as an accomplice to genocide.

Why did the UK Government agree to sell the ghost station to an oligarch already suspected of money laundering for the Russian underworld? Why did senior Conservative Party figures accept large donations from such a man? Why hasn’t there been a full official inquiry?

Following the ICC's arrest warrants, the Independent Alliance have written to the Prime Minister asking if he will comply with the ruling.

The UK government must decide: is it on the side of Israeli impunity or international law?

John Prescott was against Israel's war crimes and he called them out as early as 2014.

The International Criminal Court has finally issued arrest warrants for Netenyahu and a Gallant. Not before time. All complicit and active participants in the Gaza genocide must be held accountable. The UK gov must also uphold the ICC decision and end all arms exports to Israel.

The ICC’s arrest warrants are long overdue.

The Prime Minister & Foreign Secretary must immediately endorse this decision. That is the bare minimum.

Will the UK government now, finally, honour its international obligations to prevent genocide and end all arms sales to Israel?

Capitalism doesn't make sense, people are selling trillions of dollars of Oil and Gas every year.

But who said they own it?

And the land they say the own, who did they originally buy it from?

If you actually look you will find most of it was given to them centuries ago, for nothing.
