Statues aren’t about history they are about adoration. This man was not great, he was a slave trader and a murderer.
Historian @DavidOlusoga brilliantly explains why BLM protestors were right to tear down the statue of Edward Colston.
Deeply worrying evidence that PM planning to sell out UK farmers & our environment in US trade deal, despite empty promises to the contrary
We urgently need legal guarantees on enshrining high standards on food, animal welfare & environmental protection https://t.co/ebHgCfHHUd
This is outrageous. Speaking truth to power is what journalists like @maitlis are there to do - shame on the BBC for bowing to this truth-twisting incompetent government. #DemocracyUnderThreat
“Vice-chancellors have had months to come up with serious offers to avoid widespread disruption on UK campuses. Their failings are clear for all to see and the blame for the disruption caused by the strikes lays squarely at their door” https://t.co/2JqJM2J5jK #UCUStrikesBack
Jeremy Corbyn snubs a Tory State Banquet for Donald Trump!!! A day after we learn under Theresa May’s Tories 600,000 children in Britain are eating at Foodbanks they announce a lavish banquet!! FFS!!!
If you are middle class, they call you a champagne socialist

Everyone, apparently, is disqualified from challenging the system.

Just asked PM if she'll meet inspiring climate activist @GretaThunberg in Parliament in 2 weeks' time.
Greta has met the Pope, spoken at Davos & received Nobel Peace Prize nomination.
Seems PM still needs a bit more persuading.
RT if you think she should meet. #strike4climate
Watch Charlie Stayt destroy Tory Minister for Schools Nick Gibb over cuts, Teachers working in the canteen, parents asked to buy toilet paper.. “are you deluded?”
The Labour Party will put forward our proposal again - which we believe can win the support of the country, parliament and the EU. #BrexitVote#BrexitDeal
Unforgivable that 610 MPs skipped yesterday's debate on climate change.
Young people on #schoolstrike4climate are showing leadership, while truant politicians shirk responsibility.
If your MP missed it, tell them why we urgently need a #GreenNewDeal to secure our futures:
It's Blue Monkey week again already! Looking fwd to seeing excellent shows @ Towner with perspectives on the work from @catingrams, April Yasamee, Sally Colledge, Satu Viljanen & @Joe_Hill_82 All welcome! Come and enjoy : ) https://t.co/j7fUyciPlf @TownerGallery @BlueMonkeyNet
