The Starmer regime arrested more than a hundred protesters outside his party conference in Liverpool on Sunday – mostly pensioners and disabled people – for peacefully holding placards in a protest against his proscription (terrorist ban) of Palestine Action, a non-violent group that took direct action against Israeli-owned and linked arms factories. Sunday’s arrests came on top of more than 1,100 arrested in two similar London demos.

When 150,000 far-right gathered in London to chant hate and beat up anti-racists, there were twenty-three arrests.

As one peaceful activist was arrested on Sunday, his resistance was not violence but a song:

They are pulverising Gaza
They don’t want it to exist.
Well I’ve got a magic marker,
so they call me terrorist
for opposing genocide.

Solidarity forever.
