Fab review of my book on FiLiA's history. Kay Green can see my admiration for FiLiA & that my invocation of Palestine was not intended to derail it but make it more inclusive . As she says, 'Rahila didn’t throw a dead cat, she threw a live elephant.' kaygreen.blog/2025/10/30/viv…
The Southall Black Sisters statement on Filia, Zionism and Palestine is now open fo signatures:

For those of you have been following the fallout from the @FiLiA_charity conference, here is the SBS statement
'We need feminist spaces that do not ask us to abandon our politics at the door. Until that is a reality, we will continue to speak out. Not for permission, but for liberation.'
A statement from Southall Black Sisters on the FiLiA conference:

My speech at the #FiLiA2025 conference in Brighton is being misquoted to portray me as a supporter of Hamas to suit Zionist agendas. @SBSisters @MaryamNamazie @maryamd_h @beatrixcampbell @GitaSahgal @shularises To set the record straight, here is the recording & speech extract:

I can't help but break my resolve never to use X again but Julie Spin-del strikes again to teach us all that we should never let facts stand in the way of a good story @maryam_dh
I wrote, for @TheSun, about the idiots doing #TeamIran, and how they should perhaps pop over on holiday sometime to check it out:

trying not to use X but felt compelled to say. The fall of #Assad government is bad news for the #Rojava women's revolution. The #Islamists taking over hate everything that Rojava stands for - grassroots democracy, womens' rights, ethnic/reigious inclusivity, equality, secularism

I'm sure I'm not the first to notice but can't get over the irony that racist Tommy Robinson @TRobinsonNewEra ran a tanning salon. #brownskinenvy
Turkey has attacked 30 locations in #Rojava, targeting electricity, oil, & other infrastructure. At least 13 people killed, 15 injured. Not on the scale of #Gazagenocides but a Western ally destroying a women's revolution & grassroots democracy
I and @SBSisters will be attending the protest outside the High Court today.

Just bought this poetry collection as a birthday present. Sums up brilliantly why not being a political #writer is a luxury only some writers can afford.

So pleased to see Spain's enlightened policy towards migrants even if a cynical view might be that they're doing it in their self-interest, at least it's not demonising them. Wish @Keir_Starmer would follow suit.reuters.com/world/europe/spa….

On my way to the #Palestine march. Really wonderful note on @PSCupdates website that date was changed from 12 to 5 Oct to allow the 1000s of Jewish people who want to celebrate yom kippur next week to join the march today.
