"Lunch counter sit-ins, student-led protests against the Vietnam War & Apartheid South Africa & now the campus protests in solidarity with Gaza—all are part of our rich history of free speech & non-violent protest that makes change." @benandjerrys Board reuters.com/business/ben-j…

@MartinSLewis love your podcast and thanks for all you do. Would love some advice on creating a personal budget 🙏🙏

🚨 The Govt. have achieved a record high and it isn’t good. 80% of people seeking safety are waiting for over 6 months for their initial decision. Unable to work, stuck in hotels or on unsafe barges, unable to rebuild their lives. This is shameful. independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-o…

🗣️72 HOURS OF ACTION🗣️ The time limit on the detention of pregnant women is 72-hours. Under the 'Illegal' Migration Bill, this could be removed. We've had success in the House of Lords. Now it's time to do the same in the Commons. ✍️Write to your MP bit.ly/3pDTmFp

Join me in supporting @rainbowmigrants campaign #NoPrideInDetention. In immigration detention #LGBTQI people are isolated in prison-like conditions and at risk of violence and harassment. This must stop. I signed my name here and you should too bit.ly/3zDfKBE

We knew it and thank God judges agree: Suella Braverman’s ‘cash for humans’ plan is immoral – and illegal | Sonya Sceats theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Just for the record, we fundamentally respect and DO agree with today’s Court of Appeal findings - sending asylum seekers to Rwanda is not safe and therefore unlawful.  We call on the Government to put people’s lives first and SCRAP THE RWANDA PLAN!

🚨 Campaigners and people seeking asylum have WON, proving the Rwanda deportation scheme to be unlawful.   This is a HUGE win against the Refugee Ban Bill too. Without the Rwanda scheme, the Home Secretary cannot comply with her own plans to deport people.

NO MORE DEATHS Last week a boat carrying people seeking safety sank in the waters off Greece, resulting in the devastating deaths of hundreds of people, including children. The death toll is still unknown. 🧵(1/7)

Listen up folks! *That* bill is back in Parliament next week so it's time to raise our voices. Tell your MP that this cruelty is not in your name and ask them to vote against these dangerous plans. @DetentionAction detentionaction.e-activist.com/page/124503/-/1

@wizzair this is shocking! I won’t be flying with you until you fix this #EqualPay #genderequity

The UK Government are trying to rip up the human rights of some of the most vulnerable people in society. So, here’s a little thread of some of the things they don’t want you to be reminded of right now:
