I’ve written to Keir Starmer and Yvette Cooper demanding urgent action to ensure the safety of the Global Sumud Flotilla. 52 boats carrying aid and peace activists to Gaza.

The UK must act to assure their safety.

Israel is committing a genocide. All eyes are on this flotilla.

Our friend, poet and activist Sarah Clancy, is on the Spectre, one of the boats on the Flotilla which was attacked last night. Contact the Taoiseach and Tánaiste to demand protection, there must be safe passage for all trying to break apartheid Israel's illegal siege of Gaza. #LiftTheSiege

This is a part of the world that dominates our front pages & yet about which we learn remarkably little at school: the history of Gaza rarely makes it onto the curriculum, we are not taught its story in movies or documentaries. Yet it is something we badly need to know to understand current events

That is why we have decided to tell its story before it is too late. We want to remind our @empirepoduk.bsky.social listeners of the complex & violent history of the peoples who have passed through & lived in Gaza and whose genes have contributed to the diversity of the modern Palestinian people

UK law is becoming a laughing stock. Democracy is being buried by ministers and policing in favour of corporate interests.
