“Giving children their childhood back?”
So reopening the 2,000 youth clubs closed under neoliberalism? The 1,000 children’s centres?
Recreating the 10,000 + playing fields lost?
Or the 800 playgrounds lost in the last 10 years?
The 1,000 libraries?
The after-school clubs closed?
This sounds glib but she’s not wrong. Or did I miss an announcement about the government investing in after school and extracurricular youth clubs and sports in this country? Telling kids to get off social media is only half the battle, you need to offer them better choices
BBC: “What was your screen time?”
Student: “Nine hours.”
BBC: “You’re gong to have a lot more time to fill. What will you do?”
Student: “Stare at a wall.”

The suffragettes used far more extreme tactics than Palestine Action.
They planted bombs, burned down private homes and smashed up art galleries.
They killed five people!
Her outrageous judgement is based on absurd historical ignorance.
🚨🚨 LA FIFA DEMANDE À HAÏTI 🇭🇹 DE CHANGER SON MAILLOT POUR LA COUPE DU MONDE 🌍 ! 👕
En cause une représentation de la bataille de Vertières qui a marqué l'aboutissement de la révolution haïtienne et la proclamation de l'indépendance quelques semaines plus tard.
La FIFA y voit ici un "message politique".
Kevin Maguire: "After the attack on the Liverpool football parade & it was a white guy, middle class, former royal marine, no-one went after other white, middle class former marines & set this person represents that entire group"
Emily Thornberry has today said the government has let down the Palestinian people, and allowed Israel to act with impunity.
The audacity.
Here she is in October 2023 refusing to condemn Israel cutting off power and supplies to Gaza.
Don’t let these people rewrite history.
Banning Cenk Uyghur and Hasan Piker from entering the UK is an absurd and cowardly decision from an increasingly authoritarian government.
Let us call this what it is: an attack on the freedom to criticise Israel, as well as the UK government’s own complicity in genocide.
