Take actions: Name and shame politicians. Boycott them.

A human being who does not stand up for the poor victims and mass murderer and genocide does not deserve your time or space.
This is especially for politicians who believe sacrificing Palestinian loves and ignoring the massacre and genocide that many reputable outlets are informing us of, is okay.

In our community we get these politicians going on about human rights as if they really care. They love the chance to go on community telly to prove their commitment to fighting injustices. Did they suddenly become deaf.and blind that they do not see what is happening now.

Identify local politicians that are deaf and silent and ask them why they support breaches of international law and the mass killings of Palestinians and why they do not challenge the double standards of their government be it Tory or Labour or whichever party.

Boycott them. Do not invite them to anything until they realign themselves with human principles . Name and shame all local politicians who are hypocrites. Never trust them again.

Tell them it’s Possible! Mayenin 06/06/2017
A better just equitable and civic society
Is possible in the United Kingdom
And achievable
A politician who believes
In a better just equitable and civic society
Is electable.
When we believe in it, it’s a possibility
When we aspire for it, it’s a probability
When we choose it, it becomes a certainty
When we work for it, it becomes a reality
To those who say its impossible
Impossible is only what they know
For a paradigm, of impossible humanity
Is created within one’s own philosophy
When wealth cements in poverty as a philosophy
Impossible is only what they see.
Tell them it’s possible
Just believe in humanity;
The infinite potential that it is,
That it holds and aspires to unfold and be.
Tell them to Join the revolution
And break the cement of impossible
Imagine, See the possible and aspire
let humanity unfold Its’ infinite potential
to care for the many not for the few
On June 8th, vote Jeremy Corbyn’s party,
Labour
And achieve the reality of
A better just and equitable
United Kingdom for all.

I’ve seen the dangerous route to Europe through Libya, with thousands of people at the mercy of cruelty for profit. But our leaders prefer to keep them there
