ALT A curious salamander has a big white question mark above their head in this simple graphic with a pink background. In the bottom left is a logo - a black ring with a salamander in silhouette clambering upwards.
ALT Tonight's shambles of a session of the Commons was noteworthy for a few things. Firstly, for the violent decision to take away vital support from some of the most at-need people in the country - willfully, in full knowledge of that act. And secondly, the laughter that rang out through the Commons repeatedly between votes as MPs enjoyed themselves. What more is there to say about that? We all knew what was coming despite talk of rebellion (just 49 Labour MPs voted against in the end) and despite claims of last-minute changes from Stephen Timms - changes which the Government is not bound to stick to.
ALT A Rainbow Collective Documentary: To Kill A War Machine. Smash it up, shut it down. Screening on Zoom, 3rd July, 7pm-9pm - with a video intro by Hannan Majid & guest speakers TBA
ALT Through real-time bodycam and phone footage, frontline activists take audiences along on their audacious raids to tear down arms factories around the UK. Since 2020, direct action group Palestine Action have documented their operations to dismantle the companies and infrastructure supplying weapons to the ongoing genocide in Gaza. Independent film makers Rainbow Collective have combined this cache of footage with narration by the group's founders to follow the explosive growth of one of the world's most effective and confrontational protest groups, and the backlash activists face as they incur the wrath of the British state and the arms companies operating on their soil.
ALT With a special video introduction from director Hannan Majid. Speakers: TBA There will be an optional 10 minute break, and a Q&A at the end! Although the event finishes at 9pm, if people wish to continue discussion the call can continue.
