Just received news that 27 people have been arrested in Parliament Square under the Terrorism Act 2000 for holding signs saying "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action".
This is real police state behaviour.

I chatted to @apnews.com about the fallout of the #usaid cuts and the crisis facing #civilsociety globally- sadly the cliff is approaching: apnews.com/article/usai... #SWOs #aidcuts #Trumpaidcuts
As a future of US foreign aid cuts comes into focus, so do efforts to respond
The reality of the Trump administration’s cuts to U.S. foreign assistance are sinking in within the field of international development.
