@LNRailway While we wait in suffocating heat on the platform

[Catherine @CatherineEBooks]

@LNRailway it is warmer on the platform at Euston than outside — dangerously hot. And yet the 4:54, despite being at the platform, has not been unlocked, forcing passengers to wait in the uncomfortable heat than on an air conditioned train. Why?

[Catherine @CatherineEBooks]

@LNRailway The train is still locked and now delayed with no announcement about what’s going on?

To our Black, Brown and minority communities: never forget that you are loved and wanted in London.

[Edwin Hayward @edwinhayward]

Here's the big problem with the "silent majority" and "millions think the same" narratives: they're baseless and untrue.

By and large, Britain is MUCH less racist than the racists like to portray it.

[Zarah Sultana MP @zarahsultana]

Muslims and migrants have been demonised by the press and politicians for decades.

This racist, far-right violence is the culmination of that.

[Zarah Sultana MP @zarahsultana]

It’s extraordinary. Protesters demanding an immediate ceasefire — echoing the call of 71% of the public — are presented as a threat to democracy, but a Prime Minister who ignores the public and erodes their rights says he’s protecting democracy.

[Humza Yousaf @HumzaYousaf]

To tackle hatred, leaders must be willing to call it out. The PM refused this week to condemn Lee Anderson and Suella Braverman's comments as Islamaphobic.

Peaceful protest is at the heart of our democracy. We will always resist attempts to curtail those fundamental freedoms.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Protesting against the mass slaughter of civilians is not a threat to democracy.

The real threat to democracy is a government that crushes our rights and silences our solidarity.

Our movement is made up of all faiths and backgrounds, united by a belief in a more peaceful world.

[Nadia Whittome MP @NadiaWhittomeMP]

Truly chilling speech from Rishi Sunak.

I agree with him on one thing: there is a group in the UK that is harbouring extremism, spreading division and threatening our democratic freedoms.

But it’s not Muslims. It’s the Conservative Party.
