Mosque in Blackburn hit by arson attack, Starmer remains shtum

The Masjid-e-Quwwatul Islam mosque in Blackburn was set on fire last weekend. Keir Starmer, his government and the state-corporate media have been deafeningly silent about the arson attack. It was the latest of countless Islamophobic attacks in the UK. No ‘COBRA’ meeting. No emergency funding. Not even a word of condemnation from Number 10. ‘Mainstream’ media coverage was limited to a mention in the local press. Google’s search results show only a 2025 arson attack and an article about a separate attack on an Imam’s home: State contempt The Muslim Social Justice Initiative (MSJI) pointed out the stark difference in the…

Zionist MP Tapp asks Polanski “What should a terrorist look like?”

Israel-fanatic and Labour Friends of Israel (LFI) vice-chair Labour MP Mike Tapp isn’t the brightest — or most moral — bulb in the box. Tapp thinks it’s great for police to beat the crap out of a helpless suspect. So maybe it’s no surprise he didn’t see what a door he was opening when he tried to taunt Green party leader Zack Polanski about the arrest of grannies and vicars opposing genocide. But asking Polanski what a convicted terrorist should look like? Come on. Who’d ever have guessed? But that’s exactly what Tapp did. Polanski had rightly pointed to the Starmer…

Starmeroid MP left red-faced as Gaza email prosecution collapses

Starmeroid MP Peter Kyle and state prosecutors have been humiliated today after a constituent resoundingly defeated Kyle’s attempt to criminalise her for emailing him about Israel’s Gaza crimes. Claire Kerrison had copied Kyle — her constituency MP — in on emails to Keir Starmer and his ministers about Israel’s criminal abduction of humanitarian volunteers trying to sail aid to Gaza during Israel’s illegal starvation blockade. Kyle took exception to this and complained to Sussex Police. Following the regime’s usual pattern, the police arrested Kerrison in a 4am raid. The state charged Kerrison with ‘persistent misuse of a communication system to cause…

Palestine Action ban to stay in place as courts rule human rights protest is ‘terrorism’

The Court of Appeal has ruled in favour of home secretary Shabana Mahmood’s appeal against the High Court’s ruling that the ‘terrorism’ ban on Palestine Action was unlawful. The appeals court decided that the ban was a proportionate infringement on UK human rights and did not exceed the government’s powers. Palestine Action The judge reading out the decision based this judgment on the home secretary being better placed than the courts to decide what was needed – an anti-judicial coup carried out by judges, effectively. The interference of pro-Israel groups in the decision to ban the direct action group was ignored.…

Eslamdoust faction calls police to remove TSSA president from conference, then suspends

The faction supporting the TSSA rail union’s deeply unpopular general secretary Maryam Eslamdoust has called police to remove the union’s president from the chair of its annual conference. Former TSSA assistant general secretary broke the news on his social media feeds: Unbelievably, the @TSSAunion Executive Committee has tried to remove the President from Annual Conference in contravention of the Rules, and he has refused to leave the chair. So the Police have been called!!! — Steve Coe (@stevecoe1057) June 13, 2026 When police refused to intervene in a civil dispute, the rail union then found a pretext to suspend Adam Wilson…

Set car on fire, threaten residents? 20 months. Anti-genocide protester? 6yrs+

Two Middlesbrough women who set a car on fire in the street, stole property and intimidated innocent local people during far-right riots received jail term of 20 and 22 months. They are already back out on the streets. Anti-genocide protesters who damaged weapons used to murder Palestinian civilians have been jailed for 6 years or more despite being found to have no violent intent. They were held in prison for longer before trial than Megan Davison was sentenced to: View this post on Instagram A post shared by Scott (@thebearded_skot) Far-right snowflakes The far-right loves to moan about ‘two-tier policing’.

Jewish anti-Zionist group condemns selling of illegal settlements in UK synagogues

Today, 14 June 2026, the Jewish Anti-Zionist Action (JAZA) group and others protested outside the so-called “Great Israeli Real Estate” event at Edgware United Synagogue. The event is selling off yet more stolen Palestinian land to would-be colonisers. JAZA has joined hundreds of protestors from a variety of justice groups, including the Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM) and the Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC), in peaceful protest outside Edgware United Synagogue in London. The event was moved to the synagogue after a first venue pulled out. Protesters held a prayer service in the street and held a banner stating ‘war crimes out of…

The British state’s war on UK rights and justice to protect Israel continues. Jewish protesters are demonstrating outside an event to sell stolen Palestinian land to colonisers today, 14 June 2026.

“Adults never learn” — football star’s anti-genocide letter to kids

Bosnians know about suffering genocide. It’s why they stood with the Palestinians against Israel before Bosnia’s first World Cup 2026 match. And, also ahead of Bosnia’s opening game against Canada, Bosnian football legend Edin Džeko wrote a letter to Bosnian children about it. Džeko wanted to talk to them about what it was like to survive genocide — and how its terrors are still seen now. He wrote: In the end, we survived. Looking back, I’m amazed at how strong we were. We were just little kids. But there was no point to the war. All those innocent people killed, and…

Watch: Bosnia fans chant for Palestine before match vs Canada

Bosnia fans have gathered to chant their support for Palestine before their team’s match against Canada today, 12 June 2026. Bosnia — Genocide collusion To Canada’s shame, its government has colluded in Israel’s genocide just like that of the UK and most other western states. The Bosnian fans are on the right side of history: https://www.thecanary.co/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/media_dfb9277dee9c77fd6c474508f161fb16.mp4 The match finished 1-1, but only one nation won where it matters.

Upset ‘Tommeh’ gives Canary’s print edition free advertising

The Canary upsets all the right people. Particularly, it seems, in print. The far-right hate peddler known as ‘Tommy Robinson’ has got a bit upset at being called out on a Canary front page for his part in inciting white-supremacist violence in Belfast. And in his annoyance, he gave the Canary some accidental free advertising: He doesn’t have a leg to stand on about the ‘smear’, legally speaking. Truth is an absolute defence and libel requires damage to reputation, while his — and no doubt his income — depends on his supporters seeing him inciting. And even in the UK’s corrupt…

Lebanon’s US-aligned PM condemns Iran for Israel’s attacks in deranged interview

Lebanese PM Nawwaf Salam has condemned Iran for Israel’s war of aggression in southern Lebanon, in a deranged interview with the Murdoch Times. Nawaaf claimed that Tehran rejected a supposed ‘ceasefire’ ‘deal’ in Israel’s invasion of Lebanon because: Tehran wanted to say Lebanon is a card in our pocket, that ‘we decide on Lebanon’s behalf … we are the decision-makers’. The one-sided ‘deal‘ involved Israel being free — its usual modus operandi — to continue attacking and seizing territory in southern Lebanon. By contrast, resistance group Hezbollah would have to cease all operations, lay down its arms and leave the territory, giving…

Filton 4 will be sentenced as terrorists in “grotesque” abuse of power

A judge has told four ‘Filton 25’ anti-genocide activists, at Woolwich Crown Court today, 12 June 2026, that they will be sentenced as terrorists. The four had been tried for no terrorism offences and were formally acquitted of any violent intent. Former security services lawyer-turned-judge Jeremy Johnson refused to recuse himself from the case despite his obvious conflicts of interest. Johnson had banned lawyers and the press from informing the jury that they could acquit — and that the defendants were going to be sentenced under terror laws if convicted. This decision will mean much longer prison time and draconian conditions…

Judge who served security services imposes draconian ‘terror’ sentences on Filton peace activists

Judge Jeremy Johnson has imposed draconian sentences on four ‘Filton 25’ anti-genocide activists. Johnson had earlier refused to recuse himself from the case over his connections to the security services, Johnson also announced that he would impose ‘terrorism connection’ sentences despite none of the four ever being charged with terror offences, let alone convicted. Palestine Action had not been proscribed as a terrorist group at the time when these activists were arrested. Johnson first protected himself against appeals and censure by claiming he was allowing mitigating factors. He then also claimed that “aggravating factors” included upsetting employees of the Elbit death…

10 humanitarian Gaza volunteers abducted in Libya to be held another month

The Libyan abductors of ten Global Sumud land convoy volunteers kidnapped on 24 May 2026 have extended their illegal captivity for another thirty days. The ten were abducted near Sirte despite having previously agree safe passage with aid bound for Gaza. The extension is the second imposed on them by Libya’s Internal Security Agency (ISA). Organisers have described the “political hostage taking” as outrageous and a “blatant attack on international solidarity with Palestine”. The group is demanding action from the volunteers’ governments and others to pressure the ISA into freeing the captives. The ISA has released footage showing the victims being…

Labour pushing bill to legalise ‘dark money’ political bribery

Keir Starmer’s Labour party is trying to push a bill through Parliament that amounts to legalising bribery. Hollow corpse stuffed with cash Clause 60 of the Representation of the People bill will remove caps on political donations and de-couple donations from companies’ UK taxable profits. Starmer has already pulled murky political tricks to mask its passage so far. He is ignoring almost all the recommendations of Labour’s own already-weak ‘Rycroft Review‘ into foreign political interference. UK state-corporate media are ignoring the bill. This video from the Canary explains: View this post on Instagram A post shared by Canary (@thecanaryuk) Starmer already…

“Time to pipe down” — Polanski hits back at Musk’s racist attack

Green party leader Zack Polanski has continued to stand up to billionaire Elon Musk, while Musk continues to incite hate and attack Polanski for resisting. On 10 June, as Musk again bent and ignored reality to stir up white-supremacist hate toward immigrants, Polanski described Musk’s support for “violence and extremism” as a “threat to our democracy”: This man is a threat to our democracy. He backs violence and extremism. Blaming a group of people for the awful actions of an individual leads us to a very dark place. Musk, Lowe, Farage, Robinson – these men don’t give a shit about this…

Pro-Palestine protester ‘Big Ben Dan’ found guilty

‘Big Ben Dan’ Day has been found guilty of ‘public nuisance’ at Southwark Crown Court after climbing the parliamentary tower in March 2025. Day’s 17-hour protest was against Israel’s Gaza genocide and against state-sanctioned police violence against peaceful protest. Big Ben Dan — “Serious disruption” The state claims Day caused a £67,000 public bill, some lost bus fares and “serious disruption”. Not as big as Israel’s genocide has caused to millions of innocent Palestinians and surely that’s the point of protest. But that’s the UK state’s priority as Keir Starmer wages war on anti-genocide speech and protest. Supporters chanted “Free Palestine”…
