Aya was rushed to hospital over Christmas after twice fainting from the pain in her spine. She will have surgery on Sunday and will need proper rest afterwards. Donations now will pay for essentials and make that easier. gofund.me/2f942387 @mommunism.bsky.social @gofund-gaza.bsky.social #SkyAid 🍉

The Guardian accused me of hubris because I dared post at 3pm.
The Calais Appeal donations are shooting up.
Maybe the King might like to donate too? Or maybe the Government could actually implement a fair & managed migration system?
A Christmas miracle!

Churning out anger and division.
They don’t take a day off, even on Christmas Day.

This is the Calais Appeal that @zackpolanski.bsky.social plugged today. Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to help get it up to at least £50k by the time I wake up tomorrow morning. (You may get lucky with extra time if I lie in). It will really annoy the "sT0P ThE b04t5!" crowd!
Together in Solidarity
At Calais Appeal, we come together with varied areas of expertise to provide essential support. We are committed to continuing this essential network of solidarity, but we need your support to do so.

They are striking to protect their profession and their patients — and I was proud to join them on the picket line outside St. Thomas’ Hospital this morning.
