RIP Jesse Jackson. He wasn’t just a giant of the US Civil Rights movement, he was a giant for global human rights. ❤️🙏🏾

@ppvernon Deeply saddened to hear of Lord Herman Ousley’s passing, it was an honour and privilege to work alongside him over the years. Rest in Peace.

My full report will be on tonight’s @Channel4News 🤞🤞- includes a daring escape from Heathrow Airport by one woman trapped in domestic servitude and violently abused

[Afua Hirsch @afuahirsch]

Cant believe this needs to be said of @HackneyAbbott situation

She made a mistake & apologised

Now you all having a debate where there isnt one

What there is, however, is undeniable bloodthirstiness to take down a black woman who’s been enduring attacks since before I was born

I don’t know about you but I’m still asking the ⁦@metpoliceuk⁩ Commissioner #MarkRowley the question about his defensiveness by not accepting institutional racism, sexism & homophobia. Even up to today I’ve been doing the rounds on ⁦TV & radio around the following……….

[Bevan Powell @basp001]

The MPS is a £4bn public organisation, where is the value for money or accountability. @casey_review, Institutional racism, homophobia and sexism , there is no accountability, Londoners deserve a world class police service @andygeorgeni @MayorofLondon @MetBPA @NBPAUK @CTBI

[Bevan Powell @basp001]

@Casey_Review Institutional racism, homophobia and sexism. Londoners must have a say in the future of Met Police if trust is to be recovered and policing by consent a lived reality. @NBPAUK @MetBPA @MayorofLondon @CollegeofPolice @LeroyLogan999 @CTBI @MethodistGB

[Baroness Casey Review @Casey_Review]

Baroness Louise Casey has published her final report into the standards of behaviour and internal culture of the Metropolitan Police Service.

[Metropolitan BPA @MetBPA]

"Many of the issues raised by the Review are far from new.

I make a finding of institutional racism, sexism and homophobia in the Met.

Sir William Macpherson made the first of those findings in 1999"

It’s 2022. I cannot accept that any commentator is seriously still denying the climate crisis exists. #bbcqt
