Nous agirons frontalement au secours des Palestiniens, à la fois contre le génocide à Gaza et contre l’annexion progressive de la Cisjordanie. Les navires français, s’il le fallait, escorteront les flottilles de citoyens mobilisés pour faire valoir leurs droits. Nous n’acceptons pas l’annexion progressive de la Cisjordanie, ni du Sud-Liban, ni du plateau du Golan. Nous organiserons concrètement la mobilisation contre l’extension des cruautés aux communautés chrétiennes assiégées, persécutées en Palestine et au Liban. #Melenchon2027 #JLMBourget

Like peers in France, Germany, Italy and beyond young people are rejecting the non stop militarist drumbeat coming from our leaders. And they are refusing to pay for war and rearmament with their futures. Find out more about the Youth Strike here: stopwar.org.uk/events/intern…

From Trump’s midterm defeat to Die Linke’s win in Berlin, the Palestine solidarity movement has become, in Stop the War activist @NigelUNI words, “the most destabilising factor for Western governments.” Nigel talked to @PBI_PS about how the anti-war and pro-Palestine movement shaped the US midterms.

Wes Streeting says we have 1000 days to prepare for war. But students in Scotland and the UK are joining the movement of young people across Europe and striking against war and militarism this 20th Nov. (1/2) 🧵

Burham: "The world has an opportunity to end this war" Britain has been used as a staging post to conduct this disastrous war of aggression. If the PM wants to end it, he must close British territory, our airports and UK bases to the US Airforce now.
🚨 WATCH: Andy Burnham says the Democratic landslide in the US midterms means the world now has an opportunity to end the Iran war “That’s what the voters, in my view, are saying in the United States”

Working people in Britain are paying the price for the imperialist aggression unleashed by Trump and Netanyahu. Andy Burnham must be unequivocal in telling Trump to abandon the war, and should withdraw all British assistance for it. morningstaronline.co.uk/arti…

Let's hope the stock market proves good at predicting the future... Investors are interpreting the US midterms as bad news for Britain's biggest arms maker. BAE's share price has plummeted, wiping £6bn off its market value. Peace isn't profitable for the merchants of war.

Trump may appear to have accepted his bombing of Iran lost the Republicans the mid-terms, but that doesn't mean he won't do it again! Should attacks resume, join us, @CND and @iaiw_ outside the US embassy on Saturday to say No to Trump & Netanyahu's illegal war on Iran! ⏰ 1pm 📍 US embassy, Nine Elms Lane, London SW11 7US

But he was arrested for the silence - for singing nothing, which is extraordinary. What are the police thinking? They are completely unsuited - and i suspect untrained - to police words, placards, and behaviour.
The guy who was arrested yesterday outside the Palestine Action court case for pausing too long while singing “In the UK it’s illegal to say I support Palestine Action” has predictably been released without charge. teapaw.org/airbyart/status/211813…

Officials have confirmed British troops could become involved in direct combat with Russia if deployed to Ukraine – just the latest effort by London to derail any prospect of peace. Andy Burnham should abandon these plans and commit instead to a Europe-wide security pact which guarantees the interests of all.
