🚨| BREAKING: UK’s biggest private pension fund dumps $100 MILLION of Israeli assets, due to pressure from pension fund members concerned over Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

The move followed sustained pressure from the pension fund’s members, concerned over Israel’s human rights record in Occupied Palestinian Territories.

The University and College Union (UCU), which represents Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS) members, said it had raised concerns with the pension fund about it investing in companies on the UN watchlist of those in breach of international law.

The USS’s move follows similar action by other major global retirement funds that have pulled back their Israel exposure following pressure from members.

In June, KLP, Norway’s largest private pension manager said it had divested its stake of close to $70mn in US industrial group Caterpillar, owing to the risk that its equipment was being used to violate human rights of Palestinians.

Pension Denmark, one of the biggest pension funds in Denmark with more than 800,000 members, has also withdrawn all its investments from Israeli banks.

In the UK, public sector pension plans with cash tied up in groups supplying weapons to Israel are under pressure to dump their holdings.

🚨🚨| BREAKING: A 55 year old woman, Bonnie Spofforth, has been arrested for sparking the nationwide racist riots, with the fake social media claim that the Southport stabber was a Muslim asylum seeker that was known to M16.

Racist riots spread across the country after misinformation spread on social media claiming the fatal stabbing was carried out by Ali Al-Shakati, believed to be a fictitious name, a Muslim aslyum seeker who was on an MI6 watchlist.

The 55-year-old woman believed to be Bonnie Spofforth, from Chester has now been arrested on suspicion of publishing written material to stir up racial hatred, and false communication. She remains in police custody.

Spofforth, 55, posted the false claim at 4.49pm on Monday, July 29, the day of the attack, saying: ‘Ali Al-Shakati was the suspect, he was an asylum seeker who came to the UK by boat last year and was on an MI6 watch list. If this is true, then all hell is about to break loose.’

The businesswoman, who lives in a £1.5million farmhouse in Cheshire, told MailOnline she ‘first received this information from somebody in Southport’.

‘I’m mortified that I’m being accused of this. I did not make it up’, she said.

‘My post had nothing to do with the violence we’ve seen across the country.

A message to my lovely followers:

The past week has been incredibly difficult. I have worked tirelessly to cover the far-right race riots and have been subjected to an incredible amount of vile racist and Islamophobic abuse for reporting on the pogroms and lynch mobs across the country.

However, If anyone would like to support me financially in order to keep UK Fact Check Politics operational and allow me to run UKFCP full time, you can become a monthly supporter or make a one-off donation via the link in my bio.
