2025 was the deadliest year for journalists since @pressfreedom started collecting the data.

At least 129 press members were killed last year, and at least 104 of them were killed amid armed conflicts.

Labour’s ‘landmark’ rules on ‘right to try’ are ‘worthless’ and ‘empty���, DWP’s own guidance shows

With hostility towards claimants at an all time high

Following recent laws that have empowered the benefits agency with additional abilities to collect information to tackle fraud, the organisation is seeking to equip itself with new and modern tools

5 days to go to 6th of May! As the EU is on the way to launch its first-ever #AntiPoverty Strategy, one thing is clear: a real strategy must go beyond words and be backed by adequate funding.

It’s crucial to ensure the EU budget (MFF) prioritises the eradication of poverty.

Without clear resources, the risk is a strategy that stays on paper, not in people’s lives.

[Asylum Matters @AsylumMatters]

This May Day, let's talk about the workers who aren't allowed to work.

The builders, teachers, hairdressers, plumbers - all banned from working in the UK because they're waiting for an asylum decision.

Everyone should have the right to work. It's time to Lift The Ban.

#DisabilityHateCrime

Police chiefs have finally agreed to keep a promise they made more than four years ago to investigate why their forces were passing on so few disability hate crime cases to prosecutors.

Great to hear from Tira Shubert @RoryPeckTrust on how they're supporting journalists' safety.

"We have increasingly challenging jobs. Journalists are in the firing line like never before."

See their site for resources - risk assessment and support.

[Greater Manchester Patients Not Passports @GreaterNot]

We were never consulted on Palantir gaining access to our health data.

But we've since made our views known. And in just 3️⃣ DAYS, MPs will debate activating the break clause in Palantir's NHS contract.

Tell your MP to do the right thing 👇
