NOW 347 DAYS since our nuclear test veterans - national heroes now in their eighties - requested a meeting with Prime Minister Keir Starmer to discuss how he will honour the commitment Labour made to them in opposition.

How much longer must they wait?
If you are not yet familiar with the Nuked Blood Scandal watch this jaw dropping update.

Our Nuclear Test Veterans, national heroes now in their 80s, deserve better than this

Today the order banning #PalestineAction as "terrorists" came into effect. But they are not terrorists. They are protesters trying to stop a genocide. This is a "first they came for ..." situation. Unless we stand in solidarity against this assault on our freedom, they will pick us off one by one.

Joint enterprise law ‘overused and misused’ against black men
New research shared exclusively with Channel 4 News, shows the law is being used inappropriately, with a clear tendency to overcharge black men aged 25 and under.

Politics is not a game. It's people's lives.

The Government's welfare cuts will have a catastrophic impact on the sick & disabled, and plunge hundreds of thousands of people into poverty.

It's simple: show some humanity and drop this Bill, now.

Whatever you think of #PalestineAction, the plan to ban them as a #terrorist group is a threat to your civil liberties. Violence involves harming living beings. Whether damaging planes is right or wrong, it is not violent. It is already illegal. If they can be banned as terrorists, so can you & me.

🚨IT’S NOT TOO LATE for the government to change course. Keir Starmer is being advised to urgently pause the Government's plans to cut disability & health benefits by Parliament's work & pensions committee who say they should not go ahead without a comprehensive impact assessment

Contact your MP,NOW
I’m joining @trusselluk.bsky.social in calling on the government to rethink its cruel, shameful & completely irresponsible plan to cut benefits which will plunge 250,000 people, including 50,000 children into poverty - on its own impact analysis
