US authorities must immediately release journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort. Journalism is not a crime. Reporting on protests is not a crime. Arresting journalists for their reporting is a clear example of an authoritarian practice.

It’s good to see that so many people are prepared to speak out and take action against Trump’s ICE stormtroopers, but is it too much to hope that their experience of fascism in the USA will encourage them to take similar action in support of the people of Gaza?

There are politicians in the UK who would like to introduce the US model of insurance-based healthcare here. We must not allow them to get away with it.

On 20 January 2017, as Donald Trump began his first term as president of the USA, a protest against his policies took place on Bristol Bridge under the slogan β€œBridges Not Walls”.

As it seems to have become fashionable for MPs to change party, some of you may be interested in this petition calling for a by-election to be held whenever this happens.

Donald Trump has not assembled a β€œBoard of Peace” for Gaza.

He has assembled a Board of Occupation.

The future of Gaza is not up to Trump, Blair or Netanyahu.

That is up to the Palestinian people.

Heba Muraisi, who is on day 72 of her hunger strike, has told her friend she is dying.

I have signed @johnmcdonnellmp.bsky.social's letter urging David Lammy to engage with the legal representatives of the pro-Palestine hunger strikers.

Every dictator in history has claimed that they’ll only use their powers to go after the worst of the worst.

Every dictator in history has lied.

Donald Trump is no different.

Much like Norway, we live in a multi-party democracy. Unlike Norway, we have a voting system that warps the way we vote, so Parliament looks nothing like the country. It doesn't have to be like this. electoral-reform.org.uk/norways-elec...

On Saturday, we’re building an artificial beach in the Italian Gardens to show just how much single-use plastic is polluting our planet β€” and we need YOU!

Bring the plastic you hate most & dump it on our beach as a powerful protest. If you litter pick on the way then bring that too!
