There was a story here, of ordinary people coming together to speak truth to power, as part of a just cause. There still is. And there will be until there is peace, justice and accountability, writes Jonathon Shafi âď¸ @Jonathon_Shafi

From Marwan Barghouti's wife: A sacrifice for Gaza, Palestine, and our people. Marwan, I know your pain, yet what matters most to you is ending the destruction and suffering in Gaza. You rejoice at the end of the massacre, imagine those returning, and comfort both the freed and

Trump is a spokesman for shifting US policy in the multipolar era. In the Middle East this is being filtered and managed via the Gulf states, who have been promoted as primary collaborators. While Israel is gradually and strategically demoted. From May: https://t.co/vYFNGltWwP

Scenes of celebration in place of the horror. There is a long way to go. But there is hope, and a global solidarity and accountability movement. Above all the people of Gaza endured against the odds. They are heroes in the eyes of the peoples of the world. Palestine will prevail.

Kemi Badenoch smears Labour & pro-Palestinian protesters as anti-Israeli & antisemitic. Telling that she has not made one substantive criticism of Israel killing 66,000 Palestinians including 20,000 children in the past two years. #BBCLauraK

British police have had sufficient power to regulate and even limit protest since 1936, and certainly since 1986 - the raft of new powers introduced by Tory and Labour governments are about crushing the right to protest
