#ICE Agents Tear Down Cameras And Break Doors And Windows At Restaurant in Burbank

Only criminals would need to do this. They know they're breaking the law, and they're destroying anything that can give evidence.

#Nuremburg style trials can't come fast enough.

This needs to be made more public.

I prosecute and defend the most serious sexual offences in our courts.

The overwhelming majority of offenders are British-born. Overwhelmingly the victim is someone known to them, either a partner or relative.

Anybody purporting to care about protecting women might start there.

As the US spirals out of control, let's be clear who the architects of this chaos are. A fossil fuel industry hell-bent on preserving its destructive business.

Yet in the UK, their lobbyists roam the palace of Westminster with privileged access to ministers. At what point will we say enough?

The campaign to lift the ban on Palestine Action makes the front page of the Telegraph.

Within the report, a retired Met officer says the system will be tested to the limit if thousands take part.

Join us on Saturday to oppose genocide and the unjust law. Together, we will win!

This about covers it.

🚨BREAKING: The plastic crisis is costing us £1 TRILLION a year in health DAMAGES.

Isn't it time we held plastic polluters accountable?

Videos of emaciated hostages condemned as Red Cross calls for access Hamas said it would allow Red Cross access if humanitarian aid corridors were opened into Gaza.

Just bonkers

To be clear, the orange felon fired the Head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics hours after producing a truthful jobs report because he wants to hide how badly he’s crashing the economy and he’ll install one of his minions to produce fake numbers from now on. Fascism.

As the government is about to allow chemicals to come into the UK with less scrutiny I doubt this is going to happen anytime soon. I wish I could be more optimistic.
