I have been in contact with Scotland’s First Minister, John Swinney, and I back his call for an urgent meeting with Keir Starmer on the need for action as energy costs spiral. The proposed £35 payment per household by the British government, while some people’s bills have doubled, is completely tone-deaf to the severity of this crisis. There must be immediate and meaningful action to support all workers and families.

This is why learning French language Is practically useless other than Canada (Quebec) and France It’s spoken largely in really low per capita income nations

Will be the first Prime Minister that the UK has had since 1979 that isn't controlled by Rupert Murdoch. Which apparently makes many people very angry.

Teaching Arabic needs to be erased from Iranian schools upon regime change. It should be replaced with English, French & Hebrew.

🇦🇺 Australia’s PM Anthony Albanese had to leave a mosque visit in Sydney early after things turned hostile. People inside started shouting at him, swearing, and confronting him directly. In the end, he was escorted out through a rear exit.

The DUP have rolled out the red carpet for yet another extreme English politician offering little more than performative concern for people here. It only reinforces their lurch further to the extreme right & shows they have learned nothing from the damage caused by their Brexit fiasco. The politics of hatred, fear & division have no place in our society.

Apparently Terrorist supporting Islamist, Akhmed Yakoob, has just been ARRESTED in Birmingham for allegedly burning an Israeli flag. 🇮🇱 Remember he’s the Lawyer who represented the Manchester Airport Police Attackers. Great that he’s been ARRESTED but now time to DEPORT him.

BREAKING: Reform UK have pledged to cut the size of the Scottish Parliament and regularly review its devolved powers if they win the Holyrood election The party's Scottish manifesto also says they would would 'repeal SNP bad laws' and introduce sweeping changes to the tax system

Attacking Islam is seen as a safe subject for politicians. But they lose all credibility if they only focus on Islam and ignore Eastern European trafficking gangs, Hindutva, black machete gangs, extremist Zionist Jews, etc. There’s no honour is sticking to SW1 approved targets.

If you want to understand why today’s youth support Zack Polanski, look no further than the replies on this post. It’s a sea of illiterate boomers telling the young they’re stupid to demand a different system to the one that has priced them out of home-owning and familyhood.

The Welsh language has always been political, the British state attempted to destroy it and assimilate us. To speak Welsh in itself is a an act of resistance

Today I have to wear a safety vest because my life is under threat and the Met Police have failed to take action. I’m not scared, but I’m taking precautions: a dead man can’t win wars. In a free country, nobody should live in fear. Let’s stand together against this aggression and the Establishment that’s helping these criminals.

Within just 48 hours of the Tories refusing to sack Nick Timothy for his Islamophobic comments, the far-right is circulating a list of MPs “of foreign descent” trying to “silence” him. This is what happens when racism is normalised from the top: democratically elected representatives being told that we shouldn't be allowed to make decisions here at all, and even that we should leave the country. It’s a racist attack on our very democracy. Will Nick and his party condemn it?

An antifascist group calling itself “Youth Equality Coalition” is carrying out a campaign across the United Kingdom targeting nationalist flags and far right demonstrations.

This is the biggest reform to our Parliament in a generation. 🇬🇧 This morning, the 700-year-old system of hereditary membership in the House of Lords was abolished. Membership is now earned through public service and merit, not granted by an inheritance. ✅

I challenged Labour MP Mike Tapp on the government's harmful proposed immigration reforms. In response he tried to tell me what my *own* constituents think about immigration 🤔 Sooooo, I dug up the receipts on what the people of Bristol Central actually think 🧾👀
