Aftermath of violence in Tamworth shows how a mob smashed their way into a hotel used by asylum seekers, tried to set fire to it with them and staff inside. Petrol bombs, fireworks, bricks and other missiles were thrown at police. The building is covered in racist graffiti. @GMB
look at these horrifying images, realise how close we came to public lynchings and remember that just five days ago local labour mp @SarahEdwardsTam publicly named this hotel in the commons - putting a giant target on it in the process. she clearly must resign.
The Algerian Olympics team threw flowers in the Seine, at the point where in 1961 around 200 Algerians were drowned by French police crushing a protest against an anti-Muslim curfew.
This is the correct decision, and an important first step in respecting the universal application of international law.
Well done to the millions of people across the country who have made it clear that they refuse to be complicit in war crimes.
We will continue to demand an end to the massacre in Gaza, an end to all arms sales to Israel, and an end to the occupation of Palestine.
๐จ BREAKING: Norwich Pride has said that Labour is "not welcome" at their Pride march this weekend, due to Wes Streeting's ban on puberty blockers.
In a statement, Norwich Pride said that allowing Labour to march "would cause harm to members of the community".
They killed the bees. Zionist terrorists killed the bees of indigenous Palestinians in order to destroy their livelihoods and to steal their lands. Are you telling me Palestinians have no right to arm and militarily defend themselves against this?
The Olympics sounds like an utter circus.. hijabs banned, a convicted child rapist competing for the Dutch volleyball team, and Palestinians forced to compete among the same IDF that murder their people. Faster, higher, stronger together? Farcical.
I have been informed by the Chief Whip & the Labour Party leadership that the whip has been withdrawn from me for voting to scrap the two-child benefit cap, which would lift 330,000 children out of poverty.
I will always stand up for the most vulnerable in our society.
I've been thinking about this left-wing MP winning at rock-paper-scissors to avoid shaking the far right MP's hand a lot since yesterday
It's not just incredibly funny, but also politically vital as the far right is not just another political force but a threat to democracy

This sentence is obscene. Why are we punishing the people trying to prevent disaster while allowing the oil company giants causing it to reap super profits?
