A selection of terracotta pots that have been painted sit drying on a shelf in the poly tunnel. The message U = U is painted on the one on far left, others are like driping icecream a smiling strawberry a fire horse and all the world in just a small pot, thinking about how small the earth is when you imagine everything in the universe.

Colourful i-Base graphic. The main text reads: Both UK and US put global health in danger by cutting donations to HIV, TB & malaria fund. At the top is i-Baseβs website address: I hyphen base dot info. At the bottom it says, subscribe by email. A smaller, tilted square graphic on the right, reads: HTB news. 2025. HIV treatment, prevention, access, and more. The colours used in the image are two shades of navy blue, lavender blue, taupe, khaki green, dark pink, royal blue, pink, purple, red, orange, blue, teal, mustard, and white.
The Global Fund announces $11.3bn in pledges for 8th round of funding β still $7bn short:
i-base.info/htb/52722
But can we trust the current US govt. to honour their $4.6bn pledge, since its America First plan calls $3.6bn of it βwastefulβ?

Colourful i-Base graphic. The main text reads: Englandβs HIV Action Plan. Increased investment is welcomed but are the targets actually achievable? At the top is i-Baseβs website address: I hyphen base dot info. At the bottom it says, subscribe by email. A smaller, tilted square graphic on the right, reads: HTB news. 2025.

The colours used in the image are two shades of dark azure, bright yellow-green, turquoise, dark magenta, purple, pastel pink, blue-grey, light turquoise, orange, blue, teal, mustard, red, and white.
#HIVActionPlan for England: Β£170m to reduce new diagnoses and re-engage people in care.
But are the targets realistic? Which groups are left out? And why do key parts of the plan appear to be unfunded?

Text down the right side reads
Announcement! Act Up London's Black History Month Takeover on Friday 11th October: This Is My Culture (TIMC): Celebrating Black Queer Joy, Resistance, and Power π₯
"Black queer artists arenβt just influences β we are originators. From house to disco to rock βnβ roll, our sound built the foundations of music. Too often erased β not here, not tonight.
This is a protest rave, a celebration, and a community gathering all at once. Expect talks, performances, food, and a club night that doesnβt just play music of Black origin β it honours the roots and the people who made it possible.
β¨ What to expect:
- Talks & panel amplifying Black queer voices
- Performances from incredible QTBIPOC talent
- Food, social spaces, and Vogue Kiki moments
- DJs taking you through the full spectrum of Black-origin sounds, from soul to house to techno and more
A dancefloor that is both protest and pure joy!

Witnessing at the entrance to DSEI as arms dealers arrive!
A coalition βthe big oneβ are successfully blockading the main entrance to the Excel, causing arms dealers to have to queue around to a back entrance, planting the seed of the idea that there is another way.

Five key messages: no comment,no personal details, "under what power?", no duty solicitor, no caution
Police tactics and interactions: police can act unlawfully and aggressively, especially towards black and marginalised people. PLOs (blub bibs) are intelligence gatherers - always say no comment. Kettling: no time limit, no food/water guarantee, don't give details unless Section 50. Expect intimidation, lies and divide and rule tactics
Stop and search: stay calm, ask if you're being detained and remember the 4 Ws: WHY are you being searched, WHAT are police looking for, WHO is the officer and WHERE are they based. Do not give personal details and always ask for a receipt
Key legal powers: Public Order Act section 12/14. Section 50 Police Reform Act (antisocial behaviour) Section 60AA Criminal Justice & Public Order Act 1994 (removal of masks), Section 35 (dispersal orders)
In preparation for plans by campaignets to #ShutDSEIDown this Tuesday, itβs essential to know your rights when protesting.
