Under the current criminalisation of protest, even the famous campaigners that we celebrate in the UK would be at risk of arrest simply for peacefully protesting.

The right to protest is a cornerstone of our democracy; we cannot allow its restriction to go unchallenged.

Billy’s work on true left Patriotism is fantastic…patriotism is not nationalism…like Plaid Cymru a proud nation can be engaging and accepting… only cunts like Farage think differently…my flag will always be this πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ί

The ECHR was Britain’s response to WW2 fascist regimes. With authoritarianism on the rise again, we’d be mad to give up the protections it provides. Tell your MP we won’t let that happen! actionstorm.org/petitions/pr...

Two men have raped a Sikh woman, telling her "You don't belong in this country, get out."

This is where the dehumanisation of migrants and people of colour leads: the most serious physical and sexual violence.

Just maybe remember Melissa HortmanπŸ™, her husband MarkπŸ™, & their dog GilbertπŸ™, along with John Hoffman who survived. They didn't get nearly the press I'm sure this will, no matter the outcome.

Labour just stripped 13 million disabled and vulnerable people of the COVID booster jab To put it simply, it’s too expensive to give disabled people the COVID booster, so the government won't be doing that anymore

Dark blue placard on Westminster Bridge in London, with a cartoon of an older person wearing a green top and an "I Oppose Genocide" badge. It reads "Have you seen this nan? We've been responding to a rise in grandparents opposing genocide on our streets. Though they are suspiciously non-violent, some of their cardboard signs may have sharp edges. Please stay vigilant". Below this is the Metropolitan Police logo

I never thought I’d be cheering on a former Tory Cabinet minister.

But here’s to the moral clarity, courage and leadership of @kitmalthouse.bsky.social.

The same should apply to the UK government.'

✊ β€œGive the CAN Bill time in Parliament to be debated on, voted on and passed into law.”

🚨 β€œThe government failing to debate the Climate and Nature Bill on 11 July is a betrayal.

When bragging about filling 'more potholes' is in your top ten list of achievements and supporting genocide is the hallmark of your international relations, then maybe you should be keeping quiet about the little you're doing...

Either they didn't realise, and are too stupid to be running the country or they knew exactly what they were saying and are too much of a moral vacuum to be running the country.
So pleased Brexit freed us of 'unelected bureaucrats' running things... McSwexit anyone?

Don't quite understand why you're attacking me -- we're both entitled to our opinion. I think he will destroy the soul of the GP turning it into another cut-and-paste populist party. I don't really care whether you disagree. (But I do think you mean 'continually' not 'continuously'.)

It's hard to disagree with his policies because he's so busy promoting himself, policies barely get a mention.
He comes across as yet another shiny career politician who says whatever is expedient at the time and then changes his mind when it no longer suits (e.g. his comments on Corbyn, hypnosis).
