The US has launched an unprovoked and illegal attack on Venezuela. This is a brazen attempt to secure control over Venezuelan natural resources. It is an act of war that puts the lives of millions of people at risk — and should be condemned by anyone who believes in sovereignty and international law.

You cannot support international law and also support illegal regime change. The British government must reverse its shameful support for Trump's attempted coup d'etat.
The UK has long supported a transition of power in Venezuela. We regarded Maduro as an illegitimate President and we shed no tears about the end of his regime. I reiterated my support for international law this morning. The UK government will discuss the evolving situation with US counterparts in the days ahead as we seek a safe and peaceful transition to a legitimate government that reflects the will of the Venezuelan people.

Hamas released all of the hostages and Israel didn’t stop killing Palestinians Every single person who said “All Hamas has to do is release the hostages” were lying on behalf of a genocidal ethnostate We all knew this anyway, but it’s worth pointing out again and again

Here’s @The_TUC General Secretary Paul Novak calling out Farage and Jenrick for their racism and their attempt to divide & rule our communities & workplaces. #WeStandTogether
If you walk and talk like a racist...you're probably a racist.

The #StandUpToRacism demonstration is clearly and proudly led by women to give a clear message to fascists that they don’t speak for us

Different communities experience different types of racism. All of it must be rooted out of society. Our job is to unite all these communities & all opposed to racism against all forms of racism. Our President @HackneyAbbott agrees with us. (3/3)

Announcement of @HackneyAbbott suspension happened on same evening as another anti-refugee racist riot erupted outside the Bell Hotel in Epping Forest. Nothing said on riot. This govt has lost its bearings on racism. (2/3)

A govt that stepped up racism in response to Reform UK, meanwhile failed to deliver for victims of Windrush scandal, has no authority on the issue of racism. Rank hypocrisy for Labour to suspend @HackneyAbbott while taking no action against Starmer echoing Enoch Powell (1/3)

“One year on from the election of Keir Starmer’s Labour government, polls indicating Nigel Farage’s Reform UK could win a majority at the next general election – a historic first for the far right in Britain – is a damning verdict. (1/2)

We are witnessing the first livestreamed genocide in history. Those who facilitate these crimes against humanity should face accountability — not those who have the humanity to oppose them. End all arms sales to Israel, now.
