🚨 CONFIRMED: The UK government is pushing through cruel cuts to social security with a new Bill.

They’re ignoring the alternative staring them in the face: taxing the super rich.

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

The Government has just published its disability cuts Bill.

No-one can pretend anymore that they don't know what this Bill is really all about.

The cover of the Bill makes it very clear. This Bill is "to restrict eligibility for the Personal Independence Payment."

Why has Bridget Phillipson taken a donation from a lobbying firm linked to private healthcare?🚨

EveryDoctor is very concerned about NHS privatisation, and we are investigating the links between MPs and the private healthcare sector.

Bridget Phillipson accepted a donation...

I had an abortion in my 20s - I know how important it is that women have control over our own bodies and don't face criminalisation for our choices

So glad to be 1 of 379 MPs who successfully voted to decriminalise abortion - an historic vote to protect a woman's right to choose

[Sian Berry @sianberry]

I have voted to decriminalise abortion.

The 1967 Act really only set out grounds for exceptions from what stayed a criminal offence. Today we start to treat abortion rightly as a regulated healthcare choice.

It should be a clear human right to access abortion when you need it.

Today, more starving Palestinians were lured into “aid distribution sites”.

They went in hope that they might find a bag of flour.

They were gunned down and murdered instead.

What utter inhumanity. End all arms sales to Israel, now.

[The Green Party @TheGreenParty]

More than 4.5 million people have been killed in the Middle East since 2001 in conflicts involving Western interventions.

Starmer must not increase this horrific death toll through military intervention.

Labour must learn the lessons from the past and end all arms sales now.

[BladeoftheSun @BladeoftheS]

MP's are looking at Social Media to see how they should vote on the PIP cuts.

They should vote against them, and they should tax billionaires.

If you agree spread the message so they see.

Remember that there is nothing inevitable about this - it’s a political choice. And the fact that it’s a Labour government making that choice frankly beggars belief 👇

[thehighcliffeguy @AdamHighcliffe]

The incredible thing is that he means the exact opposite of what you're thinking.

[Carla Denyer @carla_denyer]

Starmer said his govt would be like New Labour's 'Clause IV on steroids.'

Seems Streeting's take on this is NHS PFI v2.

But just like steroids, any plans for privatisation in the NHS should come with a health warning: they may cause dangerous side effects

I write for @MetroUK:

Iraq could force 9-year-old girls to be married and brave women are fighting back to stop this. The vote could happen soon, and they need the biggest outcry possible. #EndChildMarriage #GirlsNotBrides https://t.co/MW29pRQPIT

@Shell @TotalEnergies You have PROVEN how effective people power can be. But our work is far from over. Now, two crucial lawsuits from oil giants Energy Transfer and ENI still require your support!

Let’s make it four for four lawsuits - sign our Open Letter 👉 https://t.co/SVW2eo0mws

One in three NHS consultant child psychiatry posts are vacant in England.

However, this year there were 4650 applications to psychiatry but only 492 training spaces. We are turning away future psychiatrists because the government has put a restriction on training numbers.

Why?

Market pressure is increasing for Petrobras to be authorised to conduct exploration studies at the mouth of the Amazon River. On the other hand, civil society is organising and trying to prevent the region from being targeted by oil activity. #Brazil https://t.co/z6eVz0lqDx

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

You may not hear it on Fox News, but the evidence is overwhelming:

Yes, Israel is blocking humanitarian aid to Palestinians. Children are starving. And 42,000 people have been killed.

If you listen to anyone this morning, let it be Gideon Levy. A phenomenal Israeli journalist who has been speaking truth to power for decades. Share his words. Far and Wide.
