Oxford City Council has passed a motion supporting the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel, citing International Court of Justice (ICJ) rulings.
On Monday, Oxford councillor Hosnieh Djafari-Marbini said councillors had “unanimously passed a boycott and divestment motion citing the ICJ rulings on Palestine”.
The council currently banks with Barclays, which has been targeted by BDS campaigners over investment and loans to arms companies selling weapons and military technology to Israel.
“This is a first step in divesting from settler colonial genocide, occupation and apartheid in pensions, investments and procurement inc in banking with Barclays,” Djafari-Marbini wrote on X.
The first of many, God willing.
Sky Daddy has nothing to do with any of this, and the sooner we all accept the fact that we are solely responsible for this shit show the better.
