Social Media thugs spewing hate against @GIsaivani for her song ‘I’m Sorry Ayyappa’ that intends to address gender discrimination is unacceptable! This Dalit woman was on BBC’s 2020 list of the world’s 100 most inspiring & influential women alongside Jane Fonda, Bilkis Bano etc.
Yet another display of why it's intergral to separate church & State!
Min. Saroja Paulraj offers flowers & bows before a statue of Lord Buddha on her 1st day. What is the necessity/relevance of this ritual in relation to her work? And why esp must a non Buddhist adhere to this?
Waltham Forest Trades Council joined the thousands at the #antiracist, #antifascist protest in #E17 tonight following the right's call to attack a refugee help centre in Walthamstow. Whose streets? OUR STREETS!

Joint Action Against Custodial Torture led by Henri @Tiphagne & others issues a strong statement against custodial violence, demanding that Savukku Shankar who was assaulted in custody and who apprehends a threat to his life in Coimbatore prison must be shifted to another prison.
Shankar himself on multiple occasions in the past has been happy to shamelessly carry the police version of events in his interviews; a standout example is his attempts to justify the unjustifiable Sterlite police shootings of activists that claimed many lives. No one can condone his statements against women police officers either. However the rule of law requires that even those with adverse, hostile opinions which differ from our own require to be treated with dignity, without violence or torture, and it is our duty as a civil society to ensure that their right to life is not threatened in any manner whatsoever.
So clearly his hand has been fractured. That's why a POP cast has been applied. How did the fracture happen? Courts don't want to know this? #SavukkuSankar
A lot of good points but to say LTTE running is wrong, they were fighting. Also wrong to say LTTE surrendered. The very few who carried white flags because they were told to carry it by those they contacted as the only way. LTTE fought to the end and did not surrender
🇱🇰 Apparently the defeat of the LTTE was the defeat of the Tamil people and Tamils fought "the people of the south".
Another Tamil "moderate" 💁♀️
Keep preaching සංහිඳියාව and සහජීවනය to the Sinhalese 🫢

@Eelam05@tccuk_tamil@TYOUK@IDCTE_org@CouncilEelam@ICET_online Tamil solidarity has called a protest separate from the other organisations mentioned above as we wanted to take the fight to the Sri Lankan government. We disagree with the tactic and approach put forward by the other Tamil diaspora organisations. (1/2)
