Thank you to everyone who’s donated — we still need £6,500 to challenge the unfair time limits that are denying seasonal migrant workers access to justice.

Nope, we can’t now go back to “just reporting news”, because of the huge number of MP and journalists who spent the last decade angrily explaining that the Labour Party is rammed with self-indulgent wankers who disastrously want to ensure children are fed, to show off how pure and virtuous they are.

Can't think of a better subject for our first public event than dissenting over a State ban on non-violent direct action by Palestine Action using "anti-terror" laws. This Sunday, 6.45pm at the Quaker House in Ipswich we'll be screening To Kill a War Machine.

There are no good-faith anti-trans arguments, only patriarchal power grabs

Only quoting to emphasise how (unsurprisingly but still frustratingly) wild it is that the material realities of Christian Zionism are still so obfuscated and the consequences of that obfuscation…
(Extremely over the framing of global Jewry as uniquely culpable when Christian Zionists outnumber Jews of all kinds and American tax dollars paid by all Americans are funding giant swathes of it.)

The genocide in Gaza isn't about Jews. It's about colonialism.
Against Zionist Realism
Is “Not In Our Name” Jewish organizing around Palestine inflating our culpability as Jews—and downplaying our complicity as Americans ?

It is so important to consider that when he had the funds he chose to stay enslaved himself so that his wife and their future children would be free not knowing if he would ever be able to purchase his own freedom.

Give that (I believe) you still cannot claim asylum in the UK outside the UK and visa rules and regulations, this is grotesque. This government is so disappointing.
