It was a moment to hold in my soul, not just a series of images. And to my children, I said every time you see me touch my heart it is also for you. It is from parenthood and childhood that this moment comes. We cannot have another generation of this violence and this injustice. We must do the hard work for it to end. #PermanentCeasefire #CeasefireNow

My speech in front of Elbit’s factory in Filton yesterday, standing face to face with Israel’s military infrastructure.

There is something so bewildering about the banality of its presence next to an Argos and Sainsbury’s depot, and yet it is the territory on British soil most complicit in the genocide in Gaza, that has resulted in the arrests of over 3700 British citizens, the corrosion of our legal system, and even the banning of @sally_rooney’s books.

Solidarity with the #Filton25.

Shut #Elbit down.

It is a dishonour to the Holocaust to use it to justify the ethnic cleansing and murder of Palestinians.

@bbcnickrobinson not including in his question the fact that Israel’s founding depended on the ethnic cleansing and murder of Palestinians is a deeply offensive moral blindness, because there is no such thing as Israel being founded in 1948 without the Nakba of Palestinians.

To honour the Holocaust is to build a world of equal rights in which Never Again means Never Again for anyone, and the Nakba is acknowledged as an ongoing crime whose history includes Apartheid and now Genocide.

"Do you think that the state of Israel, as a safe home for Jews after the Holocaust and after the pogroms, has a right to exist?"

@bbcnickrobinson repeatedly asks Green Party leader Zack Polanski.
