The sewage scandal is all over our media. MPs' inboxes are full of constituents horrified at state of our waterways. Our @CommonsEAC report last year found a chemical cocktail in every river in the UK. Yet our Govt *still* turns a blind eye & lets private water firms off the hook

[Viv Groskop @VivGroskop]

This is kind of all the more interesting as it’s not (exactly) an edited selection — they ask people and can’t necessarily control the answers. And so it emerges 100% unintended consensus: “Who should a leader read?” “Male authors”

[Viv Groskop @VivGroskop]

Wow. I read about this but hadn’t got to it. And now I have and, yes, literally 24 book recommendations and ZERO by wimminz. Just wow.

For more than a month, we’ve known this day was coming—but that doesn’t make it any less devastating. Here are my thoughts from when we first saw the draft ruling: https://t.co/aegHc7AoTm

Heartbroken, enraged, and just terrified for women in America – and for all of us

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Today, the Supreme Court not only reversed nearly 50 years of precedent, it relegated the most intensely personal decision someone can make to the whims of politicians and ideologues—attacking the essential freedoms of millions of Americans.

Finding it really difficult - and worrying - that while we all know the stats on how many women will be raped, we seem not to have anything reliable on what percentage of men it is committing these crimes. Both sexes need to know! 35%? 1%? The truth makes a huge difference

BREAKING: Water companies say they dumped raw sewage into rivers/coasts 372,533 times last year. For 2,667,452 hours. But this is just the tip of the shitberg. Masses of 'spills' unreported, not all outfalls monitored, and a spill that lasts for weeks will be counted as just one.

"Myself, his sister Tanisha and the rest of his family and friends are completely devastated.
"He was the centre of our world. As we come to terms with his passing we ask for privacy to grieve this unimaginable loss."

This is one of the most dangerous anti-democratic pieces of legislation in recent times which seeks to criminalise dissent - and Government is trying to rush it through before the opposition organises. Please RT & ask your MP to oppose it next week #PoliceCrackdownBill

[The Green Party @TheGreenParty]

The #PolicingBill is an unprecedented attack on civil liberties.

We oppose it, decisively and unequivocally.

#PoliceCrackdownBill

[Diane Abbott @HackneyAbbott]

After the appalling scenes in Clapham Common last night here’s hoping Keir Starmer will change his mind on abstaining on the policing bill this week which would further facilitate police cracking down on peaceful protest #PoliceCrackdownBill

[Caroline Lucas @CarolineLucas]

The #PoliceCrackdownBill is dangerous, undemocratic & disproportionate

Its purpose is to close down protests the Government doesn't want to hear & it undermines the precious right to freedom of expression

Part of my speech in today's debate

[Caroline Lucas @CarolineLucas]

The #PoliceCrackdownBill is a dangerous assault on fundamental civil liberties

It restricts freedom of expression & the right to protest and hands huge powers to the Home Secretary & the police

I’m supporting Amendment to throw it out 👇

[Zarah Sultana MP @zarahsultana]

The Conservatives just voted the #PoliceCrackdownBill through its Second Reading.

It’s an authoritarian attack on our fundamental right to protest.

We cannot let this silence us. We must continue fighting – loudly, defiantly – for our rights & for justice for all. #KillTheBill
