Between us Lord Mann and I have spoken about our report on media across the whole of the UK. As well as launch it today the work to implement its recommendations started with a summit of NHS leaders. Look forward to seeing the Government’s response.
At Glastonbury yesterday, a band called for “inshallah, from the river to the sea.” The crowd cheered. When I hear that phrase chanted with joy, I feel fear and - whoever you are - so should you.
Most people don’t understand what it means. But it’s been used for decades by those who want to erase Jews from where their language, faith & indigenous culture began. A place that was meant to offer refuge when the rest of the world shut its door.
I’ve spoken out against injustice & unbearable loss. I’ve made work about the ‘Nakba’ & the ongoing trauma of Palestinians.
But “from the river to the sea” doesn’t call for peace.
It calls for a world without Jews. You can stand for Palestinian rights without denying Jewish ones. You can oppose a government without wishing away a people. If your activism leaves no room for someone else’s safety, grief or history it’s not activism. It’s hate.
As a Trustee I feel it’s important to promote the Charity and highlight we rely on Grant funding and donations to sustain our vital services. Please contact me if you would like to support the work we do.
Fantastic day supporting the Young People’s Shop at #ChichesterGala in Priory Park today. Great to have my Flo help with fund raising. YPS supports young people's mental health with well-being activities and counselling services, across Chichester https://t.co/vRmGfNfiJi
I hear so much rhetoric about the welfare cuts. What people do not understand PIP enables disabled people to maintain employment by covering the huge costs that a disabled person faces in work. The Green paper also see’s huge reductions in the Access to Work scheme. @DisRightsUK
🗣"[Our perspective] is a rejection of these concessions.
Our position is that this bill needs to be withdrawn."
Our campaigner Mikey spoke to @BBCAccessAll about how today's announcement on the benefits bill could enact a two tier system.

@elonmusk While I love X, this platform is not a balanced news app. Most Brits like me use multiple sources to evaluate information and use it as part of a plethora of news sources, not ‘the’ news source.
Everyone should be able to enjoy our towns without worrying about the basics.
That's why I’ve urged Government to support more @ChangingPlaceUK toilets across the country.
They’re life-changing for thousands of families and we need more - just like the one we opened in Leyburn.
As we celebrate VE Day it was a nice surprise to see a display about my Grandad under his plaque in St Faiths in Havant where he was church warden for 40 odd years. Today’s freedoms our down to brave men and women like him. He was a Sqn Ldr who flew Spitfire’s and Hurricane’s
These commemorations are so important. We should be forever grateful for all our forebears did. We should reflect on their legacy and the lessons we can learn from it. I wish everyone an amazing few days.

Each issue under discussion between the UK and EU should be judged in its own merits. The notion that we are only a valuable defence partner if our technology and leadership is accompanied by more fish is crazy. It is critical that we retain regulatory autonomy and an independent trade policy. Growth requires it. @TimesRadio
