They are brave women and they should be applauded for taking action to end Israeli blockades

Re: Yodel to use more courier partners after restructure - 5/19/2011 - Road Transport

One week ago today I ordered 3 x i-Phones for our staff. They were supposed to be delivered by Yodel Couriers last Friday.

A week later I am still waiting- excuses have ranged from not being able to find out office (no other courier has a problem) to turning up after office hours and wondering why no-one is answering.I have emailed them for explanations and I still haven't got a reply- phoning them does little good either. So today I spoke to the Carphone Warehouse, they have stated that they are having loads of problems with Yodel and are ending their contract with the crap courier.

So moral of the story is - if you need a courier don't use Yodel

An insane law from a government who has locked up 124 people from Uk, Germany , France and beyond because they landed in Tel Aviv and said they want to go to Palestine. There are 4 Welsh women in prison now

Re: Irish woman faces deportation from Israel

undercurrents — Tue, 12 Jul 2011 06:39:52 -0000

At 7am this morning, we had the first contact since Friday with the Irish
woman who has been imprisoned in Israel. D Murphy and
friend Fiona Williams from Swansea, Wales were amongst 124 people from Europe who were arrested at
Tel Aviv airport on Friday as part of a solidarity protest with the
people of Palestine.

The 2 Swansea based women ended their hunger strike at 7am GMT this morning
after 48 hours when their demands to make a phone call were met.

They said they are both refusing to sign the Israeli papers to accept being deported.

Fiona Williams said she is resisting being deported and is prepared to stay in prison until at least the weekend.

Speaking from her cell Fiona said

'It is difficult for us here, but at least people in prison can get
visitors.The people living in the West Bank can't get visitors because
Israel holds the keys. We want to challenge that power.'

She continued to say

'There is no legal reason for our incarceration.The risk of us accepting
deportation, is that it will be normalized and create a precedent by
which the Israeli Authorities are permitted to decide on who has the
right or not to come visit Palestine'

D Murphy said

'There are 27 women here in the prison and 5 in our cell. It is scruffy,
dirty and very very basic and it is very hot and sweaty at night. But
our spirits are still raised knowing that people are supporting us
beyond these barbed wire and thick walls.'

She continued;

'In Israel, if you are prepared to lie constantly about your destination
regarding Palestine, it is easier to survive here.I want to go to
Bethlehem and support the people of Palestine and I am willing to keep
resisting deportation until the 20nd of July, maybe longer.'

Phone calls from the prison maybe more frequent now after their hunger
strike has opened up a channel of communication to the outside world.

Breaking News- I have just been told by my sources that evidence has been found that Police used underhand tactics to force the cancellation of the Big Green Gathering.

Liaison Police were reported to say the injunction was weeks in the planning rather than just 3 days before the festival opened which the Police are claiming
There was never any 'crime and disorder' at the BGG, so the idea that the festival should be stopped on those grounds is nonsense.

As market traders, festival organisers, stagehands and hundreds of other workers dismantle the festival today, evidence has been found to take the Police to court for blatant misuse of powers. Hopefully it result in the force being successfully sued.
More as the story unfolds.
