The Party Line on Minns' police riot in Sydney by Anneke Demanuele, Omar Sherrife & Josh Lees

  Click on Episode 23 The Party Line on Minns’ police riot in Sydney We know we just released an episode but politics in Australia is moving fast. Anneke attempts to take on Jordy’s role as the tech director (and fails). NSW police conducted a riot in Sydney at the demonstration against Israeli President Isaac Herzog. People were battered, punched, pepper spayed, charged and arrested. It was a violent, brutal attack on people exercising their right to protest. It was like Trump’s ICE gestapo left Minneapolis for Sydney (organised by the Labor Party!). We speak to Josh Lees from NSW Socialists and Palestine Action Group, who discusses the attempts to push back against the Minn’s government. We then talk to Ghaith Krayem, the national spokesperson for Muslim Votes Matter about the increase of Islamophobia directed at the muslim community. We finish with an argument for people to continue the movement to stand for a liberated Palestine, and an end to the genocide in Gaza.

if you can. ***************** This is a podcast by members of the Socialist Party in Naarm (Melbourne). We hope to bring a radical perspective to a podcast landscape dominated by insipid liberalism (looking at you, The Daily). The pod will come out weekly, and aims to breakdown news and current events from a socialist point of view. While a lot of what’s going on in the world is fairly bleak, The Party Line will try and highlight voices of resistance and struggle.
