THE CANARY
People are saying two activists who security forcibly ejected from the Labour conference should call the cops themselves – after the extent of their injuries were revealed.
Labour conference: don’t mention the genocide!
As the Canary previously reported, a protester from Climate Resistance disrupted chancellor Rachel Reeves’ keynote speech on the second day of the Labour conference in Liverpool, in protest against the new government’s support for polluters and arms sales to Israel.
The activists from campaign group Climate Resistance infiltrated the Labour conference audience. They unfurled a banner reading “Still backing polluters, still arming Israel – we voted for change”.
“We are still selling arms to Israel! I thought we voted for change, Rachel!” the protestor shouted.
Shockingly, security can be seen getting the guy in a chokehold in an attempt to remove him from the conference floor:
As we also revealed on X, after private security goons ejected him from the conference floor, cops arrested him and a fellow activist. They questioned them both for around 30 minutes. Afterwards, they were driven away from the venue and de-arrested.
Karen wanted to call the manager
However, footage emerged on BBC News that showed in detail how private security dealt with the two activists – with the now-widely shared chokehold incident being on top of goons throwing the other activist into a wall – and dragging the other out while telling someone else to stop filming; like these security bods are fucking cops – not jumped-up blue bibs:
Guardian journalist-turned left-wing troublemaker Owen Jones met the choke-held activist afterwards – and shared the extent of the damage security did to him:
Enter Karen to call the fucking manager:
Meanwhile, others on X were saying what we’re thinking at the Canary: that Climate Resistance should call the cops themselves:
Now, as a media outlet we would never endorse the police. However, on this occasion maybe – just maybe – Labour conference security deserve to feel the (strong-ish) arm of the law around their throats. As a minimum, as a former leader of Labour’s Scottish branch office pointed out:

Argos managers having a meeting at a Holiday Inn
Of course, all this is Starmer’s Labour all over. Authoritarian, intolerant of dissent, and with the air of an area meeting of Argos managers at a Holiday Inn in Reading. Reeves, Streeting – the lot of them – are (much like the Tories) the dregs from the scrapings of the bottom of the political barrel. Talentless, magnolia, yet obsessed with branding.
Moreover, as the donations and gifts’ revelations have shown, they’re all utterly self-serving and borderline narcissistic – to the point where anyone who exposes them for who they really are has to be quickly shut down. Just ask whipless MPs like Zarah Sultana.
Our two Labour conference agitators’ treatment was a prime example of what the party is now. But when Labour’s machinery happily glosses over genocide and war crimes – what hope for Climate Resistance?

Labour fascism again as objector dragged off by neck for Israel arms embargo call
The fascism of Keir Starmer’s right-wing Labour has again been on show after a young man was assaulted and dragged out of the hall at the party’s conference today for calling for the UK to end its equipping of Israel’s genocide in Gaza:
A different angle of the incident – Luciana Berger, who actively campaigned against the party in 2019, is allowed in the conference and can be seen at the front
The protester and several others, including one who held up a banner that read: “Still arming Israel, still backing polluters.” were held by police for around an hour after their removal. The scenes were reminiscent of the violent removal of Jewish left-winger Walter Wolfgang during the Blair years and of Starmer’s intimidation tactic in 2021 of putting armed police at the end of each row of seats during his first conference speech.
The principled interruption came during Chancellor Rachel Reeves’s droning speech. In response to the call to stop supporting genocide, she could only must that Labour is not a ‘party of protest’

Marks on the protester’s neck after he was dragged out
Injuries to his wrists
Under Keir Starmer and his fellow cowards and sociopaths, it’s not a party of principle or humanity either.
