Thousands of people have joined a pro-Palestinian demonstration in Dublin, calling for sanctions on Israel and its immediate expulsion from the United Nations. The large crowd marched from the Garden of Remembrance through the Irish capital towards its parliament buildings, one day after an election was formally announced. The activists expressed anger at the Irish Government’s failure to pass legislation designed to restrict trade with Israeli settlements in Palestine before the dissolution of the Dail parliament on Friday. Demonstrators, some wearing keffiyehs and waving banners and Palestinian flags, stopped for a series of speeches outside Leinster House. Speakers led chants of “free, free Palestine” and addressed the large crowd on the escalating conflict in the Middle East. Ireland-Palestine Solidarity Campaign chairwoman Zoe Lawlor said: “Palestinians know and we know – the ICJ has ruled it – occupation is illegal, apartheid is illegal, forced deplacement is illegal and our Government has to name these crimes. “Denying that it is apartheid and genocide is a way to avoid sanctioning these crimes and we won’t tolerate it any longer. “We are sick of endless words of concern and condemnations, it is meaningless unless it is turned into action.” It is the 11th national rally since October 2023 and protesters again demanded sanctions on Israel. The march called for states to stop arming Israel, an end to the use of Irish airspace for transporting weapons, and for “an end to Israel’s genocidal assault on the people of Gaza”. They called for the enactment of the Occupied Territories Bill, along with the Illegal Israeli Settlements Divestment Bill and legislation on arms embargo. In addition, it demanded that the Government ceases trade with Israel and refuses any planned return of the Israeli ambassador from Tel Aviv. Speakers at the rally included Gazan activist Mazen Abughali, Palestinian activist and videographer Abdaal Salim, Palestinian photojournalist Eman Mohammed from Gaza, People Before Profit candidate Richard Boyd Barrett and UpLift campaigns director Brian Cuthbert. Other election candidates at the rally included People Before Profit’s Paul Murphy, Labour leader Ivana Bacik, independent candidate Clare Daly and Social Democrat Sinead Gibney.

So many duplicitous cunts in main stream politics Lammy used to be left wing Tottenham MP, gradually assimilated into a boring right wing twat, more interested in expenses and boozy lunches. Another paid up member of the 'all expenses Tel Aviv holiday set parroting the ubiquitous ''israel has the right to defend itself''line when asked about starvation, cholera, polio, cutting off of water, electricity etc I would actually love it if Trump blanks him

True he has a job on his hands - I suppose if you do enter having paid $5-600 you'd never have peace of mind. With a traffic stop, medical emergency, Social security requisite - you're found out immediately. I think the difference is up until now authorities/employers turned a blind eye as its a profitable source of cheap labour. But now he says they're all criminals and rapists ....hes in good company then

I agree but he said on Thursday to NBC News that one of his first priorities upon taking office in January was to make the border “strong and powerful.” When questioned about his campaign promise of ''mass deportations'', Trump said his administration would have “no choice” but to carry them out. . He said earlier immigrants are ''Poisoning the blood of the Nation''.

Yes there's his rhetoric. and the reality of what he does -two different things That said, he will want to impress his voters that he promised to boot immigrants out - so it depends on the numbers...sad if he throws out relatives of people that voted for him though

Yes some Hispanics may regret voting for the 80 year old if they or their relatives get booted out. I remember my first time in California and Arizona in the 90s, driving early through LA etc there were all these Hispanics queuing outside Home Depot and Target etc to get a days work. I remember thinking thank fuck its not that bad in the UK yet.....now guess what Zero Hours contracts is quite normal...exploitation

‘If that dude’s mama gets deported, that’s on him’: On Thursday evening, I went on the Roland Martin Unfiltered show to talk about why Latinos overwhelmingly shifted to the right and voted for Donald Trump. Martin, whom I’ve long respected as an analyst on politics back since I was a teenager, had the same response a lot of other people did. “What the hell happened? Explain it to us,” he asked me. I noted how Trump’s appeal is largely driven by polarization via education, given that people with college degrees and advanced degrees largely broke for Kamala Harris whereas those without a bachelor’s degree voted for Trump. Latinos are one of the groups least likely to have a college degree. Understandably, Martin then highlighted multiple stories of Latinos who know they are at risk of being sent out of the United States under Trump’s proposed mass deportation plans but who still voted for the man. “What the fuck?” he asked, bluntly. But plenty of Latinos tend to think that they are different from “those types” of immigrants. Families who came to the United States before it began to tighten its borders or who came here legally look upon families who came here illegally with supsicion. Plenty of border patrol agents themselves are Hispanic. Martin said to me: “If that dude’s [a Trump voter’s] mama gets deported, that’s on him and I’m gonna play Scarface’s ‘No Tears,’” essentially saying that once Latinos who voted for Trump suffer in the wake of such policies, there will be no sympathy. This has been the response from plenty of liberal pundits. Jim Acosta of CNN, who is Cuban-American, asked on CNN, “A lot of folks are asking on the Democratic side: Why would they [Latinos] do this to themselves?” David Corn, the Washington bureau chief for Mother Jones, tweeted: “Perhaps massive deportations will affect how they see Trump.” AP/Independent

There is a new version of former US President Donald Trump’s so-called peace plan for Ukraine, which includes a proposal to position European troops in a buffer zone between Ukraine and Russia, according to The Telegraph. Details of Trump’s plan emerged after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned that any attempt to make peace by appeasing Russia would mean "suicide" for Europe Three members of Trump’s team told the publication that this plan version involves freezing the current front line, with Ukraine agreeing to postpone its ambitions to join NATO for 20 years. In exchange, the US would provide Ukraine with weapons to deter Russia from renewing hostilities. However, the US would not supply troops to patrol or secure the buffer zone or finance such a mission. "We are not sending American men and women to uphold peace in Ukraine. And we are not paying for it. Get the Poles, Germans, British and French to do it," a member of Trump’s team said Telegraph
