What's this? It's the second print run of #TheseThingsHappenBook (or 200 copies of it). I went to @TangentBooks to sign them this morning, before they get taken to the @RoughTrade warehouse this afternoon for the UK and US. Get your orders in, folks. #SarahRecords

1,400 dead in Israel. 10,000 dead in Gaza. Increased military activity on the West Bank. Increased settler violence. More and more children dying every day. When will the British government join with peaceful voices around the world to demand an immediate ceasefire?

The siege must end. The killings must end. The occupation must end. Today, we marched in our thousands for an immediate ceasefire. We will never stop speaking up for the Palestinian people. Our common humanity is at stake.
