I spoke to @Channel4News about my 5 years fighting
@metpoliceuk, and whether reforms are really working (they’re not).
I finally met Lizzie, who bravely came forward after hearing about my case. She deserves justice for what DCI Mason did & how Met chiefs buried her complaints.
“The whole frame of the migration crisis is a racist, fascist frame.”
Migrants are “not to blame” for the state of British public services, instead the answer is to point the finger at “private jets, millionaires and billionaires”, Green Party leader Zack Polanski says.
£49.18 is the standard weekly allowance for asylum seekers.
It's reduced to £9.95 if meals are included with accommodation.
You need a national insurance number to claim benefits or work. Asylum seekers do not have one.
No free phone (or Ipads). Occasionally, sims, or recycled phones are provided by charities.
Just in case anyone is interested in the facts.
I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees.
No refugee underfunded a school.
No refugee closed a hospital.
No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled.
We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!
Zarah Sultana has resigned from Labour after 14 years, joining forces with Jeremy Corbyn to launch a new political party.
She says the two-party system is failing Britain—and vows to offer a real alternative.
“In 2029, the choice will be stark: socialism or barbarism.”
Independent experts today urged the UK 🇬🇧 not to ban the “direct action” group @Pal_action as a terrorist organisation under the Terrorism Act 2000.
“Acts of protest that damage property, but are not intended to kill or injure people, should not be treated as #terrorism.”
The hypocrisy of those who wish to condemn Bob Vylan but don't have a word to say about the British government arming a genocide.
It's staggering.
Free Palestine. 🇵🇸
This is a shocking, damning admission.
The UK is arming Israel. It is conducting surveillance flights for Israel. It is training military personnel for Israel.
A full, independent, public inquiry into the UK's complicity in the Gaza genocide cannot come soon enough.
I share the deep disappointment in today's Supreme Court ruling, and the concerns about what this will mean for trans women going forward.
Today and every day, I stand in unwavering solidarity with the trans community.
We must never stop fighting for trans rights.
terrorising Palestinians by settlers and demolishing Palestinian homes continues.
A week ago, I stood on the Oscar stage with pride to call on the world to stop the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people.
Gwyn Daniel, a psychotherapist, trainer and writer, explains that Israel’s attempt to quash displays of emotion in Palestine is deeply embedded in a racist and dehumanising worldview.
Yesterday as the UK government announced a permanent puberty blocker ban I learnt ALICE’S DATA WAS NOT INCLUDED in data sent to Appleby to assess for his rushed DHSC report, that dismissed whistleblower claims of increased suicides in trans youth since Bell.
The report’s a sham.
The UK has abstained on a UN resolution demanding an end to Israel's occupation of Palestine.
A shameful chapter in this government's ongoing contempt for international law and the dignity of Palestinians.
End the occupation. Free Palestine.
i don't know how you can watch this and not see racist violence in the UK as top-down. even *morning TV* has been aggro for so long. 100% conflict-driven, guests can't get through 3 words, presenters cry "i'm being attacked!" & people wonder why society is now a massive tinderbox
