Please don’t be put off protesting against the far right.

Trouble on Saturday was very localised - mostly, in Whitehall.

In London, it’s almost always possible to leave a march and go down a sidestreet.

I stayed in Trafalgar Square and chatted to people there.

Concerning to see Christian nationalism becoming normalised. From Danny Kruger's speech saying the UK Govt should impose Christianity, to attacks on Pride flags, councillors now demand an end to pluralistic RE in favour of religious indoctrination.

U.S. California Republicans in Congress fled to Mar-a-Lago in Florida as Los Angeles continued to burn. They attended parties with Trump while people tried to save their homes. This is what rule under oligarchy looks like. #LAfires

In 2023, hunters from the Avon Vale Hunt were exposed, ruthlessly digging two terrified foxes out of an artificial hole just to let their hounds chase and kill them.

This barbaric cruelty is an outrage! It's beyond time for a real, uncompromising ban on hunting—no more excuses!

Dear BBC, please do not call anti-vaxxers “vaccine sceptics”. It implies there exists doubt about vaccines. 70-odd years ago we had large numbers of people paralysed or in iron lungs. We don’t see that today and for that we can thank the Salk vaccine.
