Last Notes npub1rash2rcns6795njc3pua944ynktjxu9jtzvnfzc0mu0mwcg9rv5sj5e88z ⬅︎⬅︎⬅︎⬅︎ Review of the documentary film Life Support https://www.theguardian.com/film/2026/jul/07/life-support-review-medics-gaza-documentary mirror: https://archive.is/WOORU #movies #palestine npub1rash2rcns6795njc3pua944ynktjxu9jtzvnfzc0mu0mwcg9rv5sj5e88z ⬅︎⬅︎⬅︎⬅︎ "His task, amongst many, will be to seek accommodation with progressive voters and movements that have abandoned the Labour Party. There will be plenty of discussion about the wisdom of that move from both sides. But it is likely to fail unless a Burnham government reverses course on the Starmer project's assaults on protest, jury trials, dissent, free speech and basic civil liberties. And none of that is plausible as long as Mahmood, or any other Labour Together alumni, remains in post." - Paul Holden twitter: /StarmertheFraud/status/2067540692813967675 6/6 npub1rash2rcns6795njc3pua944ynktjxu9jtzvnfzc0mu0mwcg9rv5sj5e88z ⬅︎⬅︎⬅︎⬅︎ "As this government collapses under the weight of unpopularity and scandal, it is now delivering for the reactionary forces that helped to put it in place through systematic and pre-meditated dishonesty. The result is a lattice-work of legislation and practice designed to criminalise and constrain dissent in the face of genocide, war, environmental degradation and the sort of corruption that turns state murder into money and misconduct into power. There is every chance that within a week, Andy Burnham will be challenging Starmer for power. It is plausible Burnham could be Prime Minister by September." - Paul Holden 5/6 npub1rash2rcns6795njc3pua944ynktjxu9jtzvnfzc0mu0mwcg9rv5sj5e88z ⬅︎⬅︎⬅︎⬅︎ "Anybody who has spent time at the coalface of investigating powerful people or standing up to militarism and forever-wars knows how legislation like this works. Secret intelligence is used to designate groups and people. That intelligence is classified, so the accused can't even see what they're accused of. Judges are given secret briefings where intelligence officials deliver doom-laden analysis, but they can't be cross-examined by the lawyers of the accused. Whispers and innuendo, the lubricant of the sort of "intelligence" that led to war in Iraq, are spun into concrete facts and grave national security threats. This is not hyperbole - it is literally what has happened when campaigners have tried to challenge the sale of arms to Israel and Saudi Arabia, where campaigners themselves were not able to see, hear or test the evidence of the state at trial. In every instance, judges have then decided that they have no power to gainsay the State." - Paul Holden 4/6 npub1rash2rcns6795njc3pua944ynktjxu9jtzvnfzc0mu0mwcg9rv5sj5e88z ⬅︎⬅︎⬅︎⬅︎ "Second, I have personal experience of this. We now know that in response to my investigations into the unlawful conduct of Labour Together and Morgan McSweeney, Labour Together hired APCO Worldwide to investigate me, my colleagues and associates. The end result was a mad dossier alleging that I was a catspaw of foreign intelligence services, working to disrupt British democracy. I've now seen some of the "raw intelligence" on which this was based: literally everything I have seen was fabricated out of whole cloth, the thumb-suck of some swivel-eyed "intelligence" source. We now know that the most senior people in the Labour Party knew about this and didn't seem to bat an eye. Some of them even seemed to believe this web of absurd idiocy." - Paul Holden 3/6 npub1rash2rcns6795njc3pua944ynktjxu9jtzvnfzc0mu0mwcg9rv5sj5e88z ⬅︎⬅︎⬅︎⬅︎ "First, in manufacturing consent towards the proscription of Palestine Action, it was leaked to the press that there were links between the direct action group and Iran. But this was entirely false, as the government's Counter-Extremism advisor sheepishly admitted months later to Channel Four." - Paul Holden 2/6 npub1rash2rcns6795njc3pua944ynktjxu9jtzvnfzc0mu0mwcg9rv5sj5e88z ⬅︎⬅︎⬅︎⬅︎ "I've now had a chance to read this Bill. It is a genuinely alarming piece of legislation and typical of the draconian, authoritarian politics of the Labour Together Project, in which Mahmood has been a key player. The Bill gives the Home Secretary nearly untrammelled power to designate any "group" working to advance a "foreign state threat." They are a "threat" if they pursue any objective that is inimical to the "interests" of the UK. Anyone who "supports" a designated group, like endorsing it or sharing its messages online, faces 14 years in prison. This is so broadly written that it invites - almost guarantees - abuse. In the context of a potential far-right government, it is madness to put such draconian legislation on the books. We already have two examples of how the state or political actors have effectively fabricated foreign state connections." - Paul Holden 1/6 🧵 #ukpolitics #palestineaction npub1rash2rcns6795njc3pua944ynktjxu9jtzvnfzc0mu0mwcg9rv5sj5e88z ⬅︎⬅︎⬅︎⬅︎ Palestine Solidarity Campaign has organised a lobby of Parliament for Palestine on Tuesday 30th June, 2026.

Here's what we know so far: - A lawyer from Adalah met with him at Ashdod port yesterday, after waiting nine hours to be allowed in. She was present during his hearing and reports that he signed documents agreeing to immediate deportation. We don't know much else, but he didn't make any particular reports of violence. - 'No particular reports of violence' probably means he reported similar to the 331 other people Adalah were able to speak to at the port between 15:00 Thur and 05.30 Friday: systematic rights violations and abuse, including being forced to kneel for five hours with hands zip-tied together, and being denied water, sleep and toilet access." 1/2 #Palestine
