Stuck on remand for over a year, political prisoners' demands for bail and a fair trial are concessions the government could make today. Yet it's entirely possible this callous government will risk the lives of those who are not convicted of a crime and who – unlike Elbit – pose no threat to anyone

This is so racist it needs a new category of racism to describe it but it's also stupid and pointless. You simply cannot purge the celebration of Black people and their accomplishments from this country in favor of celebrations of a dying pedophile. It's literally not a thing he's capable of doing.
Donald Trump just removed Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth from the list of free entry days at national parks.

They are being replaced with Trump’s birthday.

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.

They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Good to see Ed Miliband supporting a roadmap for rapid transition from fossil fuels for UK at #COP30

However, coming off fossil fuels rapidly also means no build out of new fossil fuel plants with carbon capture #CCS which UK currently plans

Rupert Lowe MP keeps using hate for headlines — calling to ban Gaza’s wounded kids from NHS care, bring back the death penalty & blame migrants for NHS woes. Dangerous, divisive politics that echoes the far right. We mustn’t forget where this road leads. #StopTheHate

Rupert Lowe, MP for Gt Yarmouth, bought a load of flags to support 'Operation Raise the Colours', presumably using money a local charity refused this month because of his politics. Does he know the background of the organisers of Raise the Colours - criminal convictions and far right groups.
