Poverty is deepening.

🔎 Our #UKPoverty2026 report was launched this morning.

People in very deep poverty now make up the biggest group of people in poverty, at 6.8 million people.

This is unacceptable for the fifth richest country in the world, and it has consequences.

Listen to this.
And thank you for your attention to this matter.

That Nick Robinson monologue to Suella Braverman was quite something ...

🚨 Warning: The government has sneaked in a new clause to the Data Protection and Digital Information Bill that hands them the power to inspect the bank accounts of anyone claiming a social security benefit.

Home Secretary Suella Braverman refers to the anti-war, pro-peace protests as 'hate marches'

In an article in Jewish Chronicle dated March 29th 2023, Suella Braverman says,

"My husband is a proud zionist.. We have close family members who serve in the IDF"

Just to be clear, anti-Semitism is wrong, Islamophobia is wrong, murdering innocent Palestinian civilians - including over 3,000 children - in Gaza for the crimes of Hamas is also wrong. Humanity must do better.

[ayan. @artan_ayan]

The Director of the UN's New York office just resigned after thirty years at the organisation over the UN's handling of the ongoing genocide of Palestinians.

The entirety of his resignation letter is a necessary read but this first page blew me away.

[RichardS✊📚 @incorbynsname]

There's no vested interest on earth that justifies this.

The world is finally aware that the “Islamic” Republic of Iran have been funding and training the terrorists that attacked Israel. So here are SOME QUESTIONS FOR THE REGIME:

HOW DO YOU EVEN DARE TO SPEAK OUT against Israeli oppression, when 10M Jews, Christians, Bahá’ís and Muslims have left Iran for fear of being killed or meaninglessly executed?

HOW DO YOU DARE TO TRY and align yourselves with an oppressed people, when you’ve raped & slaughtered your own people for the past 44 years?

HOW DO YOU DARE TO SPARK A WAR THAT NO ONE WANTS except a fanatical minority which celebrates the slaughter of Israeli civilians, including hundreds of women & children?

HOW DO YOU DARE DISPLACE 260,000 Palestinians so children continue to be born in Gaza with no prospects other than a choice between misery or death?

NO ONE WANTS more war crimes inflicted on yet more civilians. What is coming is chilling. And it will get worse:
Russia backing the IRI because they’re dependent on the IRGC for military hardware & drones, war in the Ukraine, the US parked in the Mediterranean and Israel fighting Hamas in the south, Hezbollah in the north and potentially the IRI too, it’s a world war that will affect every single one of us.

If we are humanitarians, everyone of us on this platform must call for a cease fire immediately. We know what each side is capable of. Killing more innocent people gets us nowhere other than a fast track to Armageddon.
