Two women raise the Palestinian key proudly, maintaining the hope of those who for decades have been banished from their homeland. Denied the right to return, millions still wait for justice.

Gigi (right) is an avid activist in the Palestine movement. I had the pleasure of taking this photo of her and her friend, who I don’t recall asking a name. Keys, keffiyehs, swathes of colour touching every inch of the photo. A bustling atmosphere reminiscent of a Palestine pre-1948, before Gaza was stripped of its markets, the hills of Ramallah their olive groves, and young Arab mothers their children. A Palestine frozen in history before its time stood still. Life has never been the same since.

Missing the 16th. Everyone showed up to remind the far right we are stronger together, for Palestine and all the oppressed. 🇵🇸❤️

Westminster, London

Was so pleased to capture these shots. The contrast between my comrades and the annual piss-up across the streets was telling. All the art, the music, the chanting in unison for the freedom of our persecuted friends, it was beautiful. Love and solidarity.

Saturday was incredible. Posting photos tonight and writing a piece that will be up at some point. Had to include my fav lil guy on the last slide. 🥹

Felt so unifying, standing side-by-side with comrades from all backgrounds and causes. God those racist bigots were funny weren’t they? Nothing screams patriotism like flooding your streets with tinnies. 😭 And I think someone should remind them they’re Britain First; not sure about all those Israel flags.

In all seriousness though, bless all of you who came, and those who didn’t come but support the cause. F**k those miserable fascists, let’s win with hope. 🇵🇸❤️

The Luck of the Draw

Nighttime thoughts transpire
Through visions of a world
I never see. I lay rest,
Protected by distance.

Daytime reality
Materialises.
Children scream; no distance lies
Between them and the bombs.

They sleep not, left watching the
Brutal murder of their friends,
Whose tired, broken bodies each
Cry. Why me?

And I ask one question.
Why them?

Labour is dead unless it fundamentally changes its structure. For all of Starmer’s flaws, simply a change of leader will not change the party’s lack of radical policy.

The World Food Programme claims that 363 million people are at risk of acute hunger in 2026. Global hunger is a systemic problem, one entrenched in the depths of inequality, and one that grows year-on-year with the disparity between the richest and poorest in society. And despite the ‘free market’ seemingly driving the demanded innovation, capitalism has got us no closer to an answer. Funny that, who’d have thought all that investment into imaginary crypto numbers and AI videos of pandas doing kung fu wouldn’t actually amount to anything useful? Plainly, it’s this free-for-all setup that drives the very greed leaving the poor behind; the rich take everything and give nothing in return.
