2/3🧵: a couple of hours later, an even larger #walkout was staged by the under/post grad #students of political & social science of #Edinburgh #university, leaving the #graduation ceremony hall mostly empty. The #uni now has a stark choice: the money from its financial entanglement with #Israel and companies that actively enable #genocide in #Gaza, or the money and the brains of its students. ✊🏽🇵🇸

3/3🧵: as #graduation season is in full swing, #UK #students from top #universities are staging #protests in support of #Palestine. On Thursday #Cambridge #university students waved #Palestinian flags and/or #keffiyeh, wearing traditional dress at their graduation ceremony and demanded their uni follow Kings' example and #divest from #Israel & #genocide.
