I'm so worried about Heba Muraisi who has now passed 66 days on hunger strike I fear PM Keir Starmer, Justice Secretary David Lammy and Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood will let Heba die in prison. Where is their humanity? 😭 #GazaGenocide

Our Right to peaceful protest is being slowly but surely dismantled. It concerned me when the Tories introduced them. But Labour have strengthened those laws which allow them to prevent protests

Slowly but surely, a state can repress its people. Why is the UK channelling Viktor Orbán’s Hungary? | Lydia Gall
I know enough about the erosion of civil rights to fear what I now see in the UK. Britons should understand how this ends, says Lydia Gall of Human Rights Watch

Just learning from @supertanskiiii.bsky.social (on Insta) about the scale of image based abuse taking place on X.com (and elsewhere). We have been working with a leading specialist org to bring legal action for victims. But I also want all men who care about women to call this out as unacceptable.

The police’s facial recognition algorithm has been shown to be flawed, racially biased and biased against women.
A system like that should be paused immediately until it can be properly fixed.

#trump uses the pretext of ‘national security’ to conduct illegal activities including murdering foreign nationals, sending innocent migrants to foreign concentration camps, invading a sovereign nation and as noted here, sanctioning judges of the ICC in The Hague who investigate war crimes.

Pretty sure it’s illegal to sign a contract of this size without a competitive procurement. Source: all the internal mandatory training courses I have to do because my company bids on these.

LBC are a disgrace. They give so much airtime to a party that has a handful of MP s yet give very little airtime to other parties such as the Liberal Democrats who have many more MP s than Reform UK .
20% of Mumsnet users may vote Reform but instead of focusing on why the majority 80% won’t vote Reform LBC continue on their crusade to promote Reform by dedicating an hour to a minority
So if you do something really unpopular that has a right wing vibe call them❗️🙄🙄🤦🏼♂️
