NHS could cease to function under Labour’s new visa rules, say nurses Exclusive: Royal College of Nursing says plan to tighten rules for foreign workers is ‘pandering’ to Reform UK

EXCLUSIVE: Over 800 NHS workers have signed our letter with Medact, saying the “already strained NHS would crumble under the pressure” of Reform’s proposal to scrap Indefinite Leave to Remain and Labour’s planned restrictions on migrant workers.

📢"I believe we're all human beings. What is happening to migrants can happen to anyone. You don't plan it, but anytime, it can happen to you."
Thanks to @carladenyer.bsky.social for chairing.

Convince me that this is any different from what Reform proposed on Monday. Okay so they’re not going to deport people but this will make it impossible for millions of people to ever become citizens of this country.

Family of Southport stabbing victim criticise plan to reveal ethnicity of suspects Exclusive: Michael Weston King, grandfather of Bebe King, warns government against ‘kowtowing to the likes of Farage’

"I not only speak for myself but for all of the King family when I say that the ethnicity of any perpetrator, or indeed their immigration status, is completely irrelevant." Grandfather of Bebe King

UK to start small boats returns to France ‘within days’ after EU gives green light Some asylum seekers will be sent back across Channel for first time under treaty agreed with French president

Let me get this straight: the UK will accept a person from France who hasn’t made a small boat crossing if they can be swapped with someone in the UK who has made a small boat crossing. So someone has to make a crossing if anyone is to get in without a crossing www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

JK Rowling tweeting got a boycott of M&S, stretching facts to the breaking point, and making the world a worse place for absolutely everyone.

The employee asked the girl and her mother if they needed help shopping. That’s it. That’s all. The misinformation, the insinuations (because the facts are inconveniently benign) are EXACTLY what was done to lesbians in the 80s. This is the product of hate and fear, not reality.

Skegness, one of your absolute finest people right here. Buy her a drink whenever you see her.

Surreal is the right word.

Two completely indistinguishable positions on small boats from a Tory & a Labour MP on Newsnight yesterday.

Neither one of them capable of making a case that stands up to the slightest logical pushback. Pathetic.

At midnight, Palestine Action will be proscribed under the Terrorism Act.

Their real “crime”? Exposing the UK’s role in arming Israel’s genocide.

This is a dark day for our democracy.

Criminalising non-violent resistance won’t silence the truth.

We are all Palestine Action 🇵🇸

This is the kind of mess you expect from a Major-style government that's lost its majority and is dying on its arse.

It's not about the theatre of it. It's just a terrible, indefensible way to go about making policy. And it has terrified thousands of disabled people in the process.

The government's welfare legislation is falling apart in real time. Now the four-point rule is being axed from the legislation. The one remaining big cut in the Bill is the slashing of Universal Credit health payments by 40% for new claimants

We're proud to have signed @rainbowmigration.bsky.social's statement alongside over 40 other migrant justice orgs. Together, we urge the government to protect trans, intersex and non-binary people’s rights.

Palestine Action: Over 600 public figures call for government not to proscribe direct action group Caroline Lucas, George Monbiot and Alice Oseman are among the signatories

More than 600 public figures - including @carolinelucas.bsky.social, @graceblakeley.substack.com , @georgemonbiot.bsky.social and @yanisvaroufakis.bsky.social - have signed a statement calling for the government not to proscribe @palaction.bsky.social

Please spread the word

Please bring a hat, sun cream and water

Responding to 100+ Labour rebels by removing the whip from them and in turn jeopardising the huge majority you won less than a year ago - all because they don’t want you to take money from disabled people - sounds like a great political strategy for a party that’s supposed to be centre left

All three formats of the book are illustrated: e-book, hardback, audiobook.

Fuck Nigel Farage. Fuck disability registers, “overdiagnosis”, pity porn, and so-called bloated benefit bills.

Disabled people have full, rich lives and add enormous value to the country. It is time for a new narrative.

PLP lawyer Aoife O'Reilly and Ellen Clifford in front of the Royal Courts of Justice.

🚨 BREAKING: We are delighted to share that our client
@ellenclifford.bsky.social has won her case against the DWP over an unlawful consultation held on reforms tightening the #WorkCapabilityAssessment.

These reforms would lead to over 400,000 people being worse off by at least £416 a month.

Ellen Clifford stood with a spokesperson from DPAC (Disabled People Against Cuts) in front of the Royal Courts of Justice

Today our client Ellen Clifford is in the High Court, challenging the DWP over a rushed and disingenuous consultation that was held on reforms tightening the #WorkCapabilityAssessment.

If these reforms go ahead, more than 400,000 people will be worse off by £416 a month.

There will be chaos at the borders, but perhaps even more worryingly, we at @praxisprojects.bsky.social are really concerned that people’s ability to exercise their basic rights (rent a home, get a job, access healthcare) are *already* being affected by this administrative incompetence

Residents could be barred from UK due to eVisa confusion, say rights groups Home Office has postponed transition to digital visas but campaigners fear ongoing technical problems could cause travel chaos

NEW: Migrant rights groups have warned that British residents could still be barred from returning from abroad because of the switch to digital visas, despite the government extending the deadline by three months.

By me, for the Observer www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024...

Really pleased to have asked this question, and that the Minister has responded so positively

Every child - including migrant children - will be considered in the Government’s Child Poverty Strategy

Written questions and answers - Written questions, answers and statements - UK Parliament Information from UK Parliament on written questions & answers, written statements and daily reports.

HUGE WIN: Minister confirms the child poverty strategy will consider EVERY child in the UK, including migrant children and commits to engage with families & organisations who represent migrant children.🧵

Reminder that disabled people have no obligation to consume assisted dying media. You don’t have to read posts about how someone would kill themselves if they were like you. You have no duty to be polite when they say we cost too much. Your mental health matters. Your life does too.

This society lauded a police officer who lied and cheated and ruined lives. At last, a reckoning | George Monbiot As a ‘spy cop’, Bob Lambert callously betrayed innocent women. The official inquiry must ask harsh questions of him – and the state, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Tucked into this column, a detail I wasn't aware of: one of the cops accused of running spies to collect dirt on the Stephen Lawrence campaign went on to write the recent Policy Exchange report that recommended tougher sentences for environmental protesters. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
