Conservatives left UK wide open to far-right violence, says former adviser https://t.co/keS3TPRjzs

[Runnymede Trust @RunnymedeTrust]

.@BBC insisting on reporting racist rioters as 'protestors' and 'demonstrators' is a gross misrepresentation of the violence impacting communities of colour across the UK. Language matters.

Shame on you ⁦@guardian⁩. Councils break the law with impunity - 2-4 years wait 4 a diagnosis 5 month wait for ECHP response, badly written or undelivered support then a year wait for Tribunal 98%. 120,000 kids out of school 1/2

Does this seem right to you? ⚖️

[Paul Powlesland @paulpowlesland]

Both of the actions you see in these photos potentially amount to the offence of ‘public nuisance’.

One is punishable with “long, long prison sentences” & the other is rewarded with huge bonuses & billions in profits.

Why the disparity? What does this mean for the rule of law?

[Caroline Lucas @CarolineLucas]

This sentence is obscene. Why are we punishing the people trying to prevent disaster while allowing the oil company giants causing it to reap super profits?

Tonight somewhere out there are five cells with sleepless people in them . Elsewhere there are empty beds , empty homes and broken hearts . Fear and tears . Anger and confusion . A bunch of good people whose lives have just been smashed by injustice . We hold you in our dreams .

Mug someone for their watch and you get no jail time, attend a Zoom call about a planned protest and you get 5 years in jail. https://t.co/A1dm1mcvrB

@horton_official Judge Hehir thinks he's making a point about the law, but all he's really doing is undermining faith in the British judicial system.

[Peter Walker @peterwalker99]

I know Just Stop Oil aren't everyone's cup of tea these days, but should we be worried that people are being jailed for five and four years because of an entirely non-violent protest? I think we probably should.

It seems to me that the portrayal of the Labour win as shallow because of the vote share is misleading. This was a ‘get the tories out’ election. For different people that generally meant voting Labour, Lib Dem, Green or Reform. But in doing so they all knew they’d get a Labour government and did it deliberately. In reality even Reform voters actually voted for Keir Starmer to be PM.

[Mitch Benn @MitchBenn]

Can we all make sure the fact that the Greens did EXACTLY as well as Reform with a *fraction* of Reform’s money and airtime does not go unnoticed, even if the news media furiously ignores it?

Educational makeup of the new cabinet: 90%+ state school educated.

This is big (and very different)

[Adrian Ramsay MP @AdrianRamsay]

Today we have made history.

I am profoundly humbled by the faith placed in me by the people of Waveney Valley and their embrace of our message of hope and positivity.

I promise each and every one of them, whether they voted for me or not, that I will do my utmost to make sure their voices are heard by those who have neglected them, and rural East Anglia, for so long.

To everyone who voted for me, and everyone who has supported my campaign in any way: thank you from the bottom of my heart.

[Tanita Tikaram💙 @tanita_tikaram]

Now that the Greens have won 4 seats , can we please have endless discussions on every media outlet about the rise of progressive politics & how important saving the planet is to the UK electorate.
