In case it wasn't already obvious why Farage and his party are spreading misinformation about the climate crisis and trying to blame the most vulnerable for the problems caused by inequality - they've just received a record donation from a jet fuel multimillionaire!

Breaking into a Quaker Meeting House? Where does protest go from here Friends?
When they come for the Quakers you know your country is really in trouble

Our fundamental commitments are to peace and justice

How can that be a threat to this or any other democratic government?
🚨 Outrage as 20 police officers break into Westminster Quaker Meeting House and arrest six. 🚨
This shocking violation of a place of worship is a direct result of crackdowns on protest and dissent - freedom of speech, assembly and democracy are at risk.🕊️
