Having just visited Julian Assange at Belmarsh, a quick message (on our way out) from Roger Waters, Julian Assange and me. Free Julian!

🚨BREAKING ‼️ Excellent news that Court of Appeal has ruled Braverman's utterly inhumane, grotesquely immoral & totally unworkable #Rwanda scheme to be illegal too - & in clear breach of human rights law. Time for an asylum policy which treats people with respect & dignity.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Suella Braverman's dream of sending asylum seekers to Rwanda is dead.

Now let's fight for the dreams of refugees by helping them rebuild their lives in dignity, safety and peace.

Whatever your views on monarchy, arrest of anti-royalist campaigners for exercising right to peaceful protest is chilling. Many of us warned about exactly this when govt rushed thro the illiberal public order bill. This is not what democracy looks like https://t.co/TWndQW6Whr

I am lucky to have met and spoken to @Deeyah_Khan several times over the years… She is living proof that when you shine truth, honesty, humanity and compassion on ignorance and bigotry, the darkest aspects of human nature shrivel and die… This is so inspiring.

Quite incredible seeing a 94-year-old get a seasoned broadcaster in a flap simply by saying the one thing that's unsayable in most of the media: that the people wanted Jeremy Corbyn but the establishment did not.

[Emma Dent Coad @emmadentcoad]

With huge regret. I have decided to resign from the Labour Party.

I'm not leaving the party. The party has left me.

Please RT.

Abbott tried to distinguish between prejudice and racism, in answer to a Guardian article, was unclear, and withdrew the whole effort. There’s no antisemitism issue and it’s shameful to pretend there is but not surprising from the usual load of liars.

[John Taylor @JOHNROYTAYLOR]

Check out below @johnmcternan ‘ s excellent piece on @HackneyAbbott who is one of the most maligned politicians of our age, surely she has a record worthy of greater respect #TimeToForgive

Thirty years since the racist murder of Stephen Lawrence, and the Met police is no better now than it was then #racism

Diane Abbott – A JVL statement
Her suspension is a further attack on our freedom to debate important issues in @ukLabour. Her original letter was not antisemitic and the way some critics have rounded on her as if it were is cynical and unhelpful...

Don't let the Tories get away with their strategy of voter suppression. Our democracy is at stake.
