When these freaks were chanting "Jews will not replace us" in Charlottesville, there wasn't a cop in sight. You can be sure we're seeing a genuinely anti-racist movement here because it's swarming with cops who are gleefully beating the protesters to a pulp.
No, Mr. Netanyahu. It is not antisemitic or pro-Hamas to point out that in a little over six months your extremist government has killed 34,000 Palestinians and wounded more than 77,000 – 70% of whom are women and children. You will not distract us from this immoral war.
With all the arrests and crackdowns in Austin, TX, today, a reminder that conservatives revel in authoritarianism and that those liberal media folks who indulged the idea all these years that conservatives cared about free speech or were against cancel culture were naive fools.

This video is unbelievable. Students and teachers are being arrested for protesting US support for atrocities in Gaza. Now reporters are getting assaulted and arrested for covering the protests. But remember, democracy is on the ballot.
Some bad news, Liz… New Private Eye out now!

Greater Manchester Police chief Stephen Watson, who unexpectedly reopened the investigation into Angela Rayner’s addresses, spoke at the last Tory conference. The appearance raised questions about his political impartiality, as since the event he's garnered Tory support for…
BREAKING: North America’s Building Trades Unions just released new ad exposing Donald Trump as incompetent and a liar to American workers. Retweet to ensure everyone sees.
I thought my post yesterday offered a number of disturbing examples of the willingness of anti-trans activists to trample on the rights of others in order to get at the trans community, but this one really takes the biscuit.

Politicians say they’ll do whatever it takes to stop the boats & the drownings. But the one thing they won’t do is give people safe alternative ways to travel. So we’ll always be waiting for the next tragedy. Safe routes are the only thing that will stop the smugglers #r4today
How are news outlets dedicating wall-to-wall coverage to campus protests, but not the discovery of mass graves in Gaza of people with their hands tied & clothing stripped? Why do we not know more? Where are the journalists and resources being dedicated to that story?

Enough is enough. Disabled people are not the problem. Last week the Prime Minister made a speech about so-called 'sicknote culture'. He also proposed major changes to disability benefits. Today we're launching a petition in response to this full-on assault of disabled people.
The heads of UNHCR and @UNHumanRights are calling on the UK to reconsider its plan to transfer asylum-seekers to Rwanda. UK courts will be prevented from properly scrutinising removal decisions, leaving people with limited room to appeal even if they face significant risk.
