    So you want to Free Palestine?

    In this episode, we are joined by Lowkey. We unpack the layered realities of the Palestinian struggle through the lens of UK politics, neoliberalism, and grassroots resistance. From institutional barriers to the hollow promises of party politics, we explore with our guest why traditional routes to justice are failing and how direct action is reshaping the landscape. We dive into the influence of foreign funding, the limitations of representation, and what it means to build a resistance rooted in power, not performance. This is a raw, necessary conversation for anyone questioning whether the current political system is capable of delivering real justice and what it takes to fight effectively in the face of global complicity.
