Thousands of you have taken action for @sean_binder_ @SarahMardini44, facing baseless charges in #Greece for saving lives at sea. Today was the first day of their trial. RT to support them now. Greece must drop the charges. @FrHumanitarians

We are absolutely appalled that the Prime Minister has decided to appoint as Minister for Women an MP who has consistently voted to restrict women's rights.

Ett oerhört starkt tal av @AbirAlsahlani
idag om kvinnors kamp i Iran.

För att visa sitt stöd klippte hon likt tusentals kvinnor världen över av sig håret. Traditionen att klippa av sig håret i protest är tusenårig. Den visar att ilskan är starkare än förtryckarens makt.

"This Government is very fond of telling us that it is 'listening' to survivors of Mother and Baby institutions. We are constantly told about how much it has done for them," writes @ococonuts

"Listening and hearing, of course, are very different things."

Extraordinary image from yesterday’s protest by these brave Afghan women. One year ago, Afghan girls went to school – Afghan women held positions of authority across Afghan society – all this was overturned with exceptional speed when the Taliban swept to power #Afghanistan

"‘Kill All Taigs, declared the placards on multiple Eleventh Night bonfires: a rallying cry to ethnically cleanse almost half the population. In no other part of the UK would it be acceptable to call for people to be murdered because of their religion" https://t.co/eBdMRJzTgJ

Thank you @TIME for profiling the lack of abortion access here in the north. A great article across the spectrum of the fight for abortion rights here.

We condemn the SCOTUS overturning #RoeVsWade, meaning abortion "trigger bans" will be activated in 13 states. "Abortion bans are racist, they are misogynistic, and fallout from this decision will be catastrophic". Read our full statement here: https://t.co/Ke301wUxDy

Verdict tomorrow.

Win or lose, it's a dark day for press freedom in the UK.

Singling out a journalist from their news organisation and putting them on trial is not what happens in healthy, functioning democracies.

Ireland has a terrible legacy of failing women 🏥🌹

We've spent years, putting State money into religious-owned infrastructure, we've seen the impact that has had on women's healthcare, so we have to move in the right direction on this hospital

Last night, Westminster proved once again their word is meaningless when it comes to treaties with the EU and in particular Ireland. By introducing visas for non Irish EU citizens, to cross the land border. It’s ridiculous, unworkable & unnecessary. Seriously, leave us alone.
