Biggest march against the far-right in British history. 📍 Happening now: Park Lane to Whitehall. You won't want to miss it. #Together

WATCH: At yesterday's Full Council meeting, Cllr Noor Jahan Begum was clear on how Labour had a long way to go to fix our NHS. We need brave, local, community residents in the Chamber to hold this Council to account. Make sure you Vote Redbridge Independents on 7 May. Your Voice. Our Mission.

2 - abuse his position This is the poster that will be displayed at midday on 18th April when a letter will be handed in asking police to investigate @Jas_Athwal for misconduct in public office, unless @redbridgelabour explain why Jas was not fined for his unlicenced slum flats.

youtu.be/thkAn05iSfo 1 Public question time ran out last night at @RedbridgeLive meant I did not get my question in to @KamRai7 So I went to Ilford police station today contrasting @Jas_Athwal planning application of 2022, which was held in public to make sure he did not....

BREAKING: Met police say they will recommence arresting supporters of Palestine Action. They say they must "enforce the law as it is as the time", but the law was ruled UNLAWFUL. The desperation by the state to arrest people holding placards is baffling.

At @RedbridgeLive meeting. Lots of public questions down. I am number 11, so unlikely to be called. In the past the governing party would extend question time to encourage civic participation. Will @redbridgelabour allow me and others to speak? I doubt it very much

youtube.com/shorts/SCRXdhn… Thanks to @RedbridgeIndys for the very professional video promoting the campaign against the @Tesco Toxic Towers. I would be delighted to work with other parties to build a consensus that this nasty development must be stopped.

…athwalmustbeinvestigated.blogspot.com/2026/03/email-… Back in 2022 @Jas_Athwal personal planning application went to public hearing with a 10 page document to make sure he did not abuse his position. Now we are being told his conduct as a slum landlord in 2024 is a personal matter so no report. Hypocrisy!

At the Redbridge planning meeting last night to build the together march on 28th March. youtube.com/watch?v=wnLanc… First 30 minutes of meeting at link. Important we get more on streets on London on 28th March than Tommy Robinson did.

Jeremy Corbyn is recommending that UK ministers are investigated by the International Criminal Court (ICC) in light of government complicity and participation in Israel’s genocide in Gaza detailed in the Gaza Tribunal report. The report, released on Monday 16 April, found that the UK government has failed in every single legal obligation under treaty and international law, and has been complicit in atrocity crimes - in some instances even being an active participant. Corbyn told Novara Media: “Complicity demands consequences. In the aftermath of the Iraq War, governments escaped accountability for the role they played in catastrophic human suffering. This time, we must achieve real accountability and real justice for the Palestinian people.” Corbyn held the Gaza Tribunal in September last year to “uncover the full scale of British complicity in genocide” since October 2023, hearing testimony from witnesses, journalists and survivors, as well as a range of lawyers, whistleblowers and experts in international law. Corbyn said the report, which he authored along with international law experts Dr Shahd Hammouri and Prof Neve Gordon, will “help cement the government’s legacy as a participant in one of the greatest crimes of our time”. Recommendations from the report include that the British government should release full licensing and export data on military shipments to Israel to date, along with all legal advice on the government’s assessment of genocide and its obligations to prevent it. The report also calls for all surveillance footage collected by RAF spy flights over Gaza to be shared with the ICC and International Court of Justice (ICJ), and for the government to cooperate with a full, independent public inquiry into cooperation between the UK and Israel since October 2023, which has the power to question ministers and officials.

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America.

Yesterday's unofficial @thisisyourparty supporters meeting saw 1st outing for banner at Redbridge Town Hall protest at 6:30 pm on 26th March. With @redbridgelabour giving no explanation as to why @Jas_Athwal has not been fined for his unlicensed slum flats, it's fair comment.

Well done to @RedbridgeIndys for producing such a professional video. It is important @redbridgelabour lose the council election this May to stop @Tesco Toxic Towers which will damage our community if it goes ahead.

Tony Benn died 12 years ago today. An endlessly courageous voice for socialism, democracy and peace - who inspired me and so many others. His legacy lives on in our endless struggle against all forms of violence, bigotry, oppression and exploitation. RIP Tony (The picture is from November 2013, at an event we did at the Bishopsgate Institute, 5 months before his death)

#more" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">stopthetescotoxictowers.blogspot.com/2026/03/letter… Many thanks to @RedbridgeIndys for attending the Stop the @Tesco Toxic Towers photoshoot today. I will be delighted to organise photoshoots for other parties. Lets hope Tesco follow the example of John Lewis and stop the development due to NHS concerns

New #Unison report - almost half of England's library staff axed since 2010 unison.org.uk/news/2026/03/a… We urgently need anti-austerity candidates to fight for the restoration of libraries - see here tusc.org.uk

youtube.com/shorts/Lc9SDFU… Plugging photoshoot to stop the Goodmayes @Tesco Toxic Towers 12:30pm meet for a 12:45pm photo. The campaign does not want the Towers to go ahead, but if they do, a GP surgery will mitigate some of the damage done by the proposed development.

Solidarity with @CllrRosaGomez and @Andywalker1945 for challenging @KamRai7 . Looks like this one might need to go to the courts.

1 youtube.com/shorts/ufKRDXc… @KamRai7 failed to apologise to @CllrRosaGomez tonight when I asked him to. It is really important that an apology is issued because, if not, it is bound to worry the disabled community that they could be next. Got to be wrong to persecute vulnerable
