I don’t know how anyone can listen to BBC headlines at 6 today without going mad.
One after the other:
1. The BBC was VERY WRONG to broadcast artists who dare call for harm to be done to Israel’s army
2. Israeli forces have killed & displaced hundreds of civilians in renewed bombing today

People in China have the right to gather and speak out peacefully. Authorities must stop using excessive force and respect the voices calling for change. Peaceful protest is not a threat. It's a human right.

Defending the democratic right of political speech and assembly in Australia
