Today I have written to the Business Secretary to demand the UK suspends both the UK-Israel trade deal and talks on a new deal. Britain is under a legal duty not to assist Israel’s war crimes. Our trade relations violate that duty. 1/4

I am completely shocked at the horrific and senseless killing of six hostages in Gaza by Hamas. My thoughts are with their loved ones at this awful time. Hamas must release all the hostages now, and a ceasefire deal must be agreed by all sides immediately to end the suffering.

The pandemic is not over. European governments pretend they can get out of this with Big Pharma’s profits intact. They can’t. We need to vaccinate the world *now*. That means a #TRIPSwaiver next week and massive, urgent investment in global, public healthcare. #PeoplesVaccine

Yes it’s awful and in particular @edballs is an absolute disgrace. He is completely incapable of understanding his job is not an MP but a presenter. I’d advise complaints to ofcom

This is unacceptable & deeply uncomfortable viewing. An entire white panel questioning a brown woman like a suspect. Ed Balls and Kate have left their homes this morning with no fear. Zarah and every other brown/black person left knowing they are a target

32 people were arrested “on suspicion of conspiracy to cause a public nuisance” today. Some have been held for most of the day. A frankly terrifying day for democracy. Solidarity to those involved. The rest of us need to get ready to fight back.

Great question @CarolineLucas and a shoddy response from Hancock. You can praise the breakthrough behind #COVID19 vaccines without putting profit ahead of millions of lives. India/ S Africa want to produce more medicines. Britain says Big Pharma's 'property' is more important

Today, I’m in the Royal Court of Justice, for the latest chapter in our epic saga to force the government to be more open and democratic in trade talks 🧵1/5

Here we have it: the British Govt will allow chlorine chicken, hormone beef etc into the British market under a US trade deal. Yep with a high tariff, but that can be reduced quietly over time. Johnson lied. Let's keep fighting. #NoTrumpDeal

Here we go: #Pfizer hikes cost of future orders of vaccines to the EU by over 60%. AstraZeneca investors urge to follow suit. The pandemic is over for Big Pharma. The profiteering starts in earnest. #PeoplesVaccine
