💥Suella Braverman accused of ignoring legal advice that govt was illegally detaining thousands of asylum seekers.  Very grim - and so many sources speaking out suggests all is not well in home office.  @HarryYorke1 @ShippersUnbound thetimes.co.uk/article/suella…

The candidates for Prime Minister have a choice: 💚honour 2019 Manifesto #environment promises 🔥or continue the #AttackOnNature. Read our letter to candidates here. Please share to support #nature & #climate. @BorisJohnson @PennyMordaunt @RishiSunak wcl.org.uk/docs/Dear%20Ca…

Today, the @WildlifeTrusts are joining with our friends across other environment NGOs... ...to call on all the @Conservatives leadership hopefuls to end the #AttackOnNature if they become Prime Minister Here I explain the specifics of what this means in practice...

Labour leader Keir Starmer: “She should turn it down. I think that’s the right thing to do. She’s done 44 days in office. She’s not really entitled to it.“ theguardian.com/politics/2022/…

We shouldn’t let this be buried by other news today. Foodbank charity Trussell Trust says that the need for foodbanks has outstripped donations for the first time. It has distributed 46% more emergency food parcels in August and September than at the same time in 2021.

🚨 Breaking 🚨 The European Parliament just called for nation-states to “work on developing a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty” in its formal #COP27 resolution. This is a major development in the global push for a #FossilFuelTreaty. More at fossilfueltreaty.org/eu or in 🧵

If anyone needs to steady the ship, it’s the British people, with an election. It’s too stressful to watch @Conservatives play musical chairs with our lives. Not everyone has a safety net to insulate themselves from this chaos. #GeneralElection2022 #generalelectionnow #LizTrussPM

Earlier today, our Head of #ModernSlavery Alison Logier spoke to @JessCreighton1 for @BBCWomansHour to discuss the red tape that's holding survivors back from using their skills and experience to benefit the UK economy. Listen back bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0… (35mins) #AntiSlaveryDay

@matthewlesh @BBCNews .@BBCNews why do you continue to platform shady organisations that undermine our democracy? @matthewlesh who funds you?

I’ll be up on @BBCNews in a few minutes to discuss Kwasi’s sacking, Truss’ statement, corporate taxes and where to next.

@MauriGonchi @MetPoliceEvents Are you referring to the consensus between 97% of climate scientists as anti- science? Cause that’s an interesting take

NEW: The Home Office has quietly moved the modern slavery brief away from the safeguarding minister and classed it as "illegal migration and asylum". theguardian.com/world/2022/oct…

@MetPoliceEvents Having a liveable climate matters to all communities. The frustration is the government’s failure to recognise that.

@MetPoliceEvents The real crime here is that our government has criminalised peaceful protest.
