PA, Kneecap, Bob Vylan and how to fight the criminalisation of our thoughts on the Israeli-US-UK genocide.

The imminent vote in Parliament to proscribe @pal_action, arrests of Palestine solidarity activists across the country, and the censorship and police investigation into artists @kneecap32 and @bobbyvylan for speaking out against genocide marks a new low for the growlingly authoritarian UK government and new territory for us all to navigate.

SPSC has faced a blocking of our bank account, arrests, and assaults on our activists. Join us in solidarity with PA and the discussion on how to fight the criminalisation of our thoughts on the Israeli-US-UK genocide.

Mourn the dead, fight for the living!
