You know a country is going through something when the presidential debates ahead of the second round of elections look like this.

Romanians deserve better. Keeping fingers crossed that the far-right is as absent from the country after the election, as they are from the debate chair.
A picture shows a Romanian presidential candidate Nicușor Dan and an empty chair next to him that says 'George Simion'.

UK government picking the next group to blame for Britain’s economic collapse be like:
A picture of a woman turning a fortune wheel. Each space on the wheel lists a different marginalised group. Starting from the top and going clockwise it’s disabled people, workers, black and brown communities, immigrants, queer & trans people, homeless people.

Happy Valentines Day to everyone except politicians and businessmen who make our lives miserable.

Remember, you can find real love in community <3
A meme Valentine’s Day card says ‘i will remind you of your ex’. It’s from Keir Starmer to people who hoped Labour would change things. The background is coral, and on the left, there’s a cutout photo of Keir Starmer holding red folders.

Don't think this doesn't concern you.

This anti-immigrant government is targeting "refugees" now - our neighbours, friends and community members. Who is next? The eVisa rollout is already making it more difficult for people with EU passports to get back in the country. We're in the same fight.
Headline says '🚨 The government just banned people who have been granted refugee status from ever becoming British citizens 🚨'. In the background there's a picture of Keir Starmer and Yvette Cooper. They look very serious and unapproachable and the wall behind them has the colours of Union Jack.

What we hear at the moment in Europe is the voices of communities standing together to defend their democracies. Let’s amplify those voices and join in with our chants, wherever we are.

Whatever the reason people stand up to defend their democracies, it is valid.

Solidarity with the people of Georgia, Slovakia, and Serbia!
A meme showing Pam from the office being shown two pieces of paper captioned ‘the corporate needs you to find a difference between this picture and this picture’. The first piece of paper says ‘Georgians & Slovaks protesting against pro-Russian governments’, the second ‘Serbs protesting against systemic corruption’. In the second panel, Pam, captioned as ‘Mainstream Media’ says ‘they’re the same picture’.

That's what solidarity looks like <3

Thank you @hollybancroft.bsky.social for shedding light on the experience our co-director Marzena Zukowska had flying home last month. This is not an isolated incident. A digital-only status means more and more people in the UK will have their rights denied:

www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...
The Independent headline says 'UK community worker flying from US 'questioned for over an hour' after eVisa refusal. Smaller text below says 'Marzena Zukowska's ordeal at Chicago O'Hare airport is the latest in a series of issues facing foreign nationals using their eVisas while travelling back to the UK. POMOC branded text at the bottom says 'Link to the story in the comments'. In the background, there is a photograph of Marzena taken by Green Tangering Photography. Marz is a white non-binary person with a short haircut. They are wearing glasses.

Repeat after us: Lukashenko is NOT the president of Belarus.

He's a dictator and he needs to go.
A two-panel meme captioned ‘Lukashenko after over 30 years of dictatorship’. Both panels show Bilbo Baggins from the Lord of The Rings movies. He holds the ring of power. In the first panel he says ‘After all… why not?’. In the second ‘Why shouldn’t I keep rigging the elections?’.

Protests & pressure work!

We should talk more about what's happening in Serbia (because mainstream media fails to...)

What started as student protests, cascaded to workers, unions, citizens of all classes and backgrounds. Serbs are uniting against corruption and institutional violence. Keep the fight up!

Our resistance can’t end here. We fight for free Palestine!
The title says ‘Ceasefire means we keep up the fight’. Below there’s a tweet from @khadljasays saying ‘I hope people realise that the ceasefire is for the Palestinians in Gaza. Absolutely nothing changes for the rest of us in dismantling Zionism and fighting for a free Palestine. No pauses, no breaks, no rest until every inch of Palestine is free’. In the background there’s an image of Palestinians celebrating the ceasefire with raised hands and voices.

Many of us went through 2024 in survival mode. It was a difficult time for people fighting for self-determination all over the world, for democracy, and for communities facing discrimination.

But there was also incredible mobilisation, care, hope and passion. And we want to bring these to 2025!

When we say bodily autonomy we mean freedom of movement, affirming our bodies and identities, and having the power to decide our own future!

Labour will listen to anything but the constituents 👀
The screen shows a title Labour’s 2024 Wrapped in Spotify branding. The text says ‘In the last five months alone, you have deported approximately 9,400 people from the UK. You overachiever.’ This is also Spotify Wrapped-like style. Text says ‘your top genres were’. Below, on different colorful stripes of different length, such genres are listed: deportations, watching a genocide from a safe distance, upholding colonialism and imperialism, unkept promises, and proving you’re better than Tories. Text says ‘Your top podcast topic was ‘understanding the working class’. This is also in a spotify wrapped style.

Two-panel meme with a cuphead flower. In the first panel the flower is furious and is captioned as ‘The Home Office when there’s issues with your immigration application’. In the second panel, the flower turns timid and innocent. It is captioned ‘The Home Office when there’s issues with their immigration system’.

Climate justice is not a once-a-year event. It's an ongoing commitment, and some of y'all are forgetting this ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
A still from 'The Good Place' showing Eleanor with a 'Best Person' sash, a tiara and a glass of wine. The image is captioned as 'Sir Keir Starmer attending COP29 after ensuring climate activists in the UK get record jail time:'
