#Tamils
Today, we join Tamils in the UK and around the world to remember the Mullivaikal massacre. The Liberal Democrats will keep fighting for justice for those who suffered, and stand with all Tamils who are still grieving.

Today I stand with Eelam Tamils worldwide in remembering the victims of Sri Lanka’s state-sanctioned genocide. 16 years later, justice is still denied.

The U.S. and global community must recognize this atrocity, support Tamil self-determination, and hold perpetrators accountable.

Looking at Sri Lanka and the Tamils...

"Tamils have learned through repeated painful experiences that a political solution won't come from the state. It's because of this broken faith Tamils look to the international community for justice and accountability."

No, Sri Lanka’s Tamil question has not been resolved
The nationwide electoral success of the anti-establishment NPP does not mean Tamil nationalism is on the decline.

There's legitimate reasons to be critical of China (China's involvement in the genocide of Eelam Tamils, trading with Israel etc.) but you'll never hear them coming from Americans

It really is funny that in almost every country theres beef between the north and the south (power almost always centralized to the north too) like Sicilians, Tamils, Bisaya

"In Bangkok [in 1884] one meets with communities of the following distinct type(s): Siamese, Chinese, Malays, Tamils, Peguans Lao, Annamites, Burmans, Shans, Bombay Mahomedans, Arabs, Javanese, and a few Japanese, Cingalese, Pathans, Patsenees, and Bengalis."

Welcome to Sri Lanka, where the monks all talk like Fox News personalities about Tamils.

Well but also she's Telugu and is trying to outmanoeuvre the Gujaratis, Punjabis and Tamils. Not really succeeding though....

I cannot express my contempt for desi Trunp supporters because I don't think the language has been invented yet that could contain my disgust. But Dhube is a particularly repellent specimen who I remember also downplaying the genocide of Tamils in Sri Lanka.

Also if chaddipanthis think they will conquer Bengalis or Tamils or Punjabis or Malayalis or…yeah, good luck. Read history.

When the state enshrines Sinhalese Buddhist nationalism, it also leads to ridiculous things like this. Eelam Tamils will be the most affected by this drought. If I am supposed to pretend Sri Lanka is not genocidal anymore, their actions are very clear: they will never protect Eelam Tamils.
Sri Lanka's Air Force said on Sunday it had flown Buddhist monks who prayed and sprinkled holy water over drought-hit areas in an attempt to encourage rain.
Sri Lanka's meteorologist warned that severe drought and heavy rains are likely to hit Sri Lanka for the rest of the year.

Wishing all the Tamils in Tooting and beyond a very happy New Year! May the new year bring joy, prosperity, and peace to all celebrating.

Speaking to Tamil friends over the last couple of days has broken my brain over how much we (non Tamils) didn’t know about what went on and I’m having to reconfigure everything I think and feel about Sri Lanka

Tamils and supporters rallied outside the State Library of Victoria on July 19 to demand justice for the people who were murdered by the Sri Lankan army and buried in mass graves at the town of Chemmani in northern Sri Lanka. www.greenleft.org.au/2026/1458/ne...

Not the prettiest of preps, but the best I could muster at 8 pm after a brutal day. Happy Tamil New Year (Parabava Varusham) to all my fellow Tamils. And my payasam was absolutely divine!

Points at Sri Lanka and the treatment of Tamils.

No extremists in Buddhism? Ask the Rohingya in Myanmar or the Tamils in Sri Lanka how their Buddhist neighbours treated them.

remembering the tens of thousands of Tamils massacred by the Sri Lankan state, those who continue to be denied justice, dignity and freedom, and those who fight every day for truth and accountability 🪔 #Mullivaikkal

Let Tamils secede! We have not treated them as friends. We have treated them worse than enemies and now we destroy their history too? Absolfuxkjbglutely not

De Tamils in Sri Lanka zijn voornamelijk aanhangers van het hindoeïsme. In het noorden zijn de Tamils die afstammen van het koninkrijk Jaffna. Daarnaast zijn er de Indiase Tamils, die door de Britten vanuit India zijn overgebracht om op de theeplantages te werken.
