The government and the media have been lying to you over the Maccabi Tel Aviv ban.

We will not let these lies and smears go unchallenged.

People are being shut out of politics.

Your Party has a radical plan to change that: by forging a mass, democratic party from the ground up.

Voters' voices are being shut out of British politics. Your Party has a radical plan to change that | Jeremy Corbyn

At our conference in November we will use a jury service-type model to allow members to discuss and decide policy, strategy and even the name of our party, says Your Party co-leader Jeremy Corbyn

If the police arrest me for this, it's a direct attack on the expression of opinion: ie on free speech. But the Terrorism Act is so madly oppressive and loosely framed that I have no idea which side of it I'm on. And I suspect it's the same for them.

Bear in mind that if you held up a sign saying "I support genocide", you would not be arrested under the Terrorism Act.

George Monbiot @georgemonbiot.bsky.social · Jul 5

Just received news that 27 people have been arrested in Parliament Square under the Terrorism Act 2000 for holding signs saying "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action".
This is real police state behaviour.

If we don't contest this full-frontal assault on our freedom, far worse will come.

Palestine Action isn’t a danger to British democracy – but Yvette Cooper is | George Monbiot

The home secretary is apparently an admirer of the suffragettes. I have no doubt that if they were active today she would proscribe them, too, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

We Own It @weownit.org.uk · May 27

Bringing South West Railway into public ownership is a good move for rail travel in England, but more is needed:
- NO backdoor "ongoing role" for private sector
- Bring rolling stock into public hands
- investment!
If you agree sign our petition:

Petition: Take our trains into public ownership | We Own It

The government is taking railway operators into public ownership, but the trains themselves will remain in private hands. The government must take our trains into public ownership.

The Liverpool attack wasn’t terrorism. But the far-right didn’t wait for facts – they had a script ready.

This piece by The Bear cuts through the noise to show how outrage is manufactured.
