Historic days at the LSE.
Yesterday, members of the LSE Students' Union Palestine Society launched the report 'Assets in Apartheid', exposing £89 million invested by LSE in arms, fossil fuels, and crimes against Palestinians.

🧵 #StopArmingIsrael :
Big test of 🇪🇸Spain’s arms control policies brewing as a ship called Borkum -- reported to be carrying weapons bound for Israel -- approaches Cartagena. Follow it's progress towards the port here (1/10) vesselfinder.com/vessels/detail…
CAAT Richard Burgon MP Rishi Sunak David Cameron Kemi Badenoch What manipulation by UK. We know govt licences and promotes arms and components for use in Gaza. In 2014 and 2009, UK govt explored suspending licences after mass civilian casualties in Gaza inflicted by Isr. armscontrol.org/act/2009-09/uk…
🚨There isn’t much good news these days so this feels all the sweeter.
Ghassan Abu Sitta will continue to bare witness to the atrocities he saw being carried out by 🇮🇱 in Gaza.
GermanForeignOffice you can’t silence the truth.
Thank you Richard Burgon MP for holding our morally bankrupt and deceitful Prime Minister to account. It's Rishi Sunak's ministers David Cameron and Kemi Badenoch that are personally signing licences for British-made weapons and components that are being used against Palestinians.
🚨 New from Human Rights Watch: Attacks on aid worker convoys & premises in Gaza. We documented at least 8 attacks by 🇮🇱 that killed/injured at least 31 ppl. 250 aid workers killed since 07 Oct
🇬🇧 David Cameron must end complicity & suspend arms transfers 2 🇮🇱🧵

Cracking report launch rally from staff & students on LSE's need to divest from companies & financial institutions complicit in Isr apartheid & genocide against Palestinians, & more. Privileged to speak for War on Want alongside Andrew Feinstein Katie Fallon & the finest of LSE.
We stand in solidarity with the groups targeted by Woodcock. He will not stop people taking action at arms companies profiting from genocide. We will not be intimidated. We will not be scared. And we utterly refuse to be divided into good and bad protesters. #StopArmingIsrael
🚨Our new report released with War on Want and CAAT reveals that Barclays UK has substantially INCREASED its financing of companies arming Israel’s genocide.
We must take action. Join the #BoycottBarclays campaign: palestinecampaign.org/boycott-barcla…
A big honour to support today's rally @ LSE on behalf of CAAT calling on LSE to divest £89mil complicit in genocide & apartheid. Emotional to see so many students refuse to live on autopilot refuse to accept the unforgivable excuses of our institutions. lsepalestine.github.io/documents/LSES…
