Live facial recognition tech to be rolled out across Britain LIVE facial recognition technology will be rolled out across the country under plans for the biggest overhaul in policing in nearly 200 years.MPs, unions and campaigners voiced civil liberty fears as ...

Labour's plans to roll out live facial recognition across Britain is a disturbing attack on our civil liberties, right to privacy and individual freedoms, and leaves the door wide open to abuse.

This stride into full state surveillance must be resisted.

Judge warns Trump administration from changing plaintiffs immigration status in First Amendment case A federal judge ruled that the academics, who are party to a lawsuit alleging U.S. policy singles out noncitizens for detention or deportation over their pro-Palestinian activism on college campuses, ...

“Students and scholars shouldn’t have to live in fear that ICE agents could seize them from their homes merely for engaging in political expression. Today’s judgment makes emphatically clear that the administration’s campaign of intimidation must end.”

KHK rejimi üniversitelerde daha önce başarılamamış büyük tasfiyenin gerçekleştirilmesini sağladı. Özel üniversite patronları da işten çıkardıkları imzacıları KHK kapsamına aldırarak işe iade davalarına karşı bir duvar örmek olanağını kaçırmadılar.

Trump's Assault on What's Right Minneapolis mourns Renee Nicole Good, ICE’s immorality hits a new low, and the National Portrait Gallery quietly edits out Trump’s ugly past.

Wanted to share my diary with you, on visiting Minneapolis.

I came focused on cruelty: the killing of Renee Good. The agents leaving whatever their lives are to make others’ hell. The elites cheering it all on.

I came looking for what's wrong in America.
But what I found was actually what's right:

In Britain and around the world, the movement against Trump's violent imperialism is growing.

From his disgraceful illegal attack on Venezuela to his threats against Cuba and other Latin American countries, we have a moral duty to organise and resist.

Trump’s rhetoric on Venezuela seems to point toward justifying military action by the United States.

​“The twilight hour of socialism has arrived in Venezuela and frankly in many many places around the world.”

İhraçlar, dayanışma ve sendika - Evrensel Tüm zorluklarına rağmen bu on yıl dayanışmanın, yeni kurumlar inşa etmenin ya da var olan kurumları harekete geçirmenin çok farklı örneklerini de barındırdı.

İhraç edilmiş imzacıların bir kısmı, akademik-sendikal birikimin oluşumunda etkin bir şekilde rol almıştı. Eğitim Sen üniversite örgütlenmesinde ve mücadelesinde öne çıkmış kimi üyeler, imzacı olmasalar da ihraç edildiler.
