Stop David Lammy killing political prisoners! Release all Palestine protesters!es

The British government is starving to death eight young people it has imprisoned for protesting Israel’s genocide of the Palestinians and UK complicity in the destruction of Gaza.

It's probably worth mentioning in the summary that:

  • the prisoners are on hunger strike
  • they're not being dealt with in accordance with the laws around what's supposed to happen when prisoners go on hunger strike
  • they're not even convicted, just on remand.

The sensationalised criticism sounds a lot dumber than the real criticism, and is much easier for people scrolling past to dismiss as nonsense and just scroll past.
