Yesterday, the tracks fell silent at Utrecht Centraal. Twenty rebels who refused to look away from Gaza held the rails.

On July 4 the ring road stops again. Each action answered with arrests. Each arrest answered with more bodies. The movement does not shrink. It grows. Join it.

Adnan Hussain, independent MP for Blackburn, said:

“Remand is not punishment. It is not meant to break bodies or silence dissent.

To break impasse in David Lammy refusing to meet representatives of the hunger strikers I’ve proposed he appoint a mediator to commence discussions with the hunger strikers’ representatives. For those of us who were around in early 1980s hunger strikes tragically we know how this could go.

"The slaughter. The massacre. The genocide. When will it stop?"

As a woman is arrested under the Terrorism Act for holding a sign, she asks when will it end?

It's on all of us to take action to stop the genocide and resist attempts to label those who do as 'terrorists'.

A huge indictment of this government’s policy on Palestine Action, itself a product of its complicity in genocide.

Most people in Britain, given the evidence, understand the rights and wrongs here. No wonder David Lammy is going after the jury system as a whole.
BREAKING: NO CONVICTIONS AS VERDICTS COME IN FOR FILTON24 TRIAL

After 8 days of deliberation, the jury have not convicted Charlotte Head, Samuel Corner, Ellie (Leona) Kamio, Fatema Zainab Rajwani, Zoe Rogers and Jordan Devlin on any charge.

Ban a Pro-Palestinian Group? The U.K. Government Thought Few Would Care.

Official advice provided to the government before its ban on Palestine Action underestimated the significant public protests that followed, records show.
