The campaign group Defend Our Juries said Thunberg's arrest could signal "a new level of repression", questioning whether police had misapplied the ban on Palestine Action or whether expressions of support for detained activists were now being treated as terrorism offences.

The case for rejoining the Single Market and Customs Union is clear. A closer trading relationship with Europe would lower costs, cut red tape, and give businesses, exporters, and traders the support they need.

We can talk about the economics and whether the EU would allow it but, from a domestic politics POV, rejecting the idea would be perverse.
The only groups Labour might hope to appease wouldn't be and are a minority.

Conversion practices are unscientific, ineffective and inflict actual harm on individuals.

I have a problem with this statement. If people “knew nothing”, why did they cut ties “before his crimes came to light”? Seems like an admission that many of them knew full well what was happening and did nothing, even if they wanted nothing to do with his sordid activities themselves.

WOW: The DOJ has DELETED an image from its release of the Epstein files that shows photos of Trump in a drawer.
Yesterday, we noted that this image — file 468 — likely slipped through the cracks while officials were attempting to hide materials pertaining to Trump.
Now, it’s gone.

If it wasn't apparent before, the extent to which the Epstein file release has been redacted by Trump's lackeys makes very clear that the convicted felon and adjudicated rapist does, indeed have a whole lot to hide.

Today, French lawmakers unanimously approved a bill exonerating women punished for abortion before it was legalized in 1975.
This "is an act of justice toward those thousands of lives shattered by unjust laws," said Aurore Bergé, minister-delegate for gender equality.
