One of my oldest friends ghosted me when I went public with my chronic illness.
They wanted the “old me”. They wanted me to hide it better.
Two days ago they reached out to say they’re now disabled & worried they won’t be able to keep their job.
They asked for my help 🧵
Government embarrassment at security breaches is no excuse for interfering with human rights.
Amnesty International is seriously concerned by the Home Secretary’s announcement that she intends to proscribe Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation.
From his perspective, Starmer has to stand firm on welfare cuts.

After her 5 years in Iran’s Evin Prison, bombed the other day by Israel, Nazanin Zachary-Ratcliffe writes: ‘If Evin taught me anything, it was that freedom does not come from bombs and brutality, nor from clever stunts for the cameras. It lies in human connection and empathy.’
Israeli forces killed at least 60 Palestinians in Gaza on Wednesday while they were seeking food from a distribution point.

Our Government is complicit in genocide.
Increasing calls for an independent investigation into the deaths of 15 medical and rescue workers in Gaza. Israel maintains that six of the 15 were Hamas members, but that wouldn’t be an acceptable defence in court. The deliberate killing of medics and paramedics is a war crime.

And he's only getting stronger with every passing minute. This 1-minute clip right now should mark a pivotal moment for the Democratic Party. It’s a turning point for all Americans who care deeply about preserving our democracy, and it’s a clarion call for young people to rise up and ignite a powerful grassroots movement across this nation.
This is the energy we need to fuel real change. Let this moment serve as the spark that lights the fire of action, accountability, and justice.
This massacre must be one of the worst atrocities of all. Rescue workers murdered one by one, then buried in a mass grave.
This is clearly a war crime.
All those responsible should be brought to trial.
And we should stop arming Israel.

Hamdan Ballal was forcibly disappeared by Israeli soldiers after having been assaulted by Israeli settlers attacking Palestinians in Susyia, a village in the occupied West Bank. He has now been released, but those who carried out the attacks must be held accountable.
On 20.3.17, Ahmed Mansoor was arrested in #UAE. He has suffered solitary confinement in appalling circumstances, rarely seeing his family. Ahmed has been the victim of unfair trials, when all he has done is defend human rights. @AmnestyMENA@FriendsOfAhmed@ICFUAE@alirezaazizi
