The resolution also calls on states to cease the sale, transfer and diversion of arms, munitions and other military equipment to Israel.

Friday’s proposal, which was brought forward by Pakistan on behalf of all Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) member states except Albania, also called for “an immediate ceasefire” and “for immediate emergency humanitarian access and assistance”.

The Palestinian Ambassador to the UN in Geneva, Ibrahim Khraishi, expressed approval of the vote but also voiced dissatisfaction with the lack of support from certain Western countries.

Meirav Eilon Shahar, Israel’s permanent representative to the UN in Geneva, condemned the resolution as a stain on the Human Rights Council and the UN as a whole.

Inside the Castle!

Torbay: Berry Pomeroy Castle – Tudor Ruins! (2.4.2024)

During the 1500s, Elizabeth I was an absolute monarch (as was her father – King Henry VIII) – who preferred to live in and around the Nonsuch Park area – including Hampton Court Palace (which is no longer used by the royal family). However, there was once a “Nonsuch Palace” which does not exist today. After Elizabeth I died (1603 CE) – many of the castles she frequented were no long favoured by the royal family – leading to these buildings falling into neglect and ruin. This was the case with Nonsuch Palace which was so badly dilapidate that what was left of it had to be demolished in 1683 CE – for safety reasons – with the ruins being recycled into the constructon (or maintenance) of local buildings.

Paignton: Meeting the “Waveman”! (31.3.2024)

Zionist War Criminals in Tel Aviv are no different to the warmongers in Washington or thr unelected BJP Junta currently running the UK! The Palestinians are suffering and dying due to the vicious ideology of a racially-based “Zionism” which has historically pursued the absurdity that one (White) group of theistic religionists are spiritually and physically superior to everyone else! If Israel was not serving the function of destabilising the Middle East for the US – the UN would be blanket-bombing Tel Aviv as I write! It is the socio-economic ideology of predatory capitalism that is causing all this suffering and which is the enemy of us all!

Western Terrorism Will Not Prosper in Hong Kong!

China: Experts Hit Back at West’s Racist “Double-Standards” in Unfounded Smears Against Article 23! (26.3.2026)

The ordinance is clear and precise, leaving no room for unjustified arguments, Chu Kar-kin, a veteran commentator based in the HKSAR and member of the Chinese Association of Hong Kong and Macao Studies, told the Global Times on Wednesday. The allegations from the West are groundless and subjective, as their laws are never superior or binding to other jurisdictions, he said.

In fact, the Article 23 legislation has taken at least six countries’ national security-related laws as references during the legislative process including 16 laws from the UK like the National Security Act 2023.

The definitions of crimes within the ordinance are clearer than those in the UK’s National Security Act 2023, Tang, the city’s Secretary for Security, noted on Wednesday. Cameron ignoring the vagueness of his own country’s legislation while making unreasonable criticisms of the Article 23 legislation displays hypocritical double standards, Tang said.
