@libdems.org.uk and @pippaheylings.bsky.social will you put pressure on our govt to ensure these humanitarians on a British-flagged vessel are released?
Can the govt tell us what measures were taken to ensure no British-supplied equipment was used in their kidnapping?

This ad isn't real. We mocked it up. Why? Transport for London rejected our campaign material because the advertisement "π™’π™–π™™π™š π™£π™šπ™œπ™–π™©π™žπ™«π™š π™§π™šπ™›π™šπ™§π™šπ™£π™˜π™šπ™¨ 𝙖𝙗𝙀π™ͺ𝙩 π™©π™π™š π™₯π™€π™‘π™žπ™˜π™š".

In medicine, we somehow don't have enough training places for the doctors who *do* earn their degrees here!
How will we increase headcount if we have a bottleneck?

I hosted an event in Parliament with @standing-together.bsky.social, a grassroots movement that brings together Arab Israeli and Jewish Israeli communities to work for Israeli Palestinian peace. They are committed to peacebuilding and raising international awareness that public support in Israel is

Hilarious and yet disturbing. They will lie and lie and lie.
I feel sorry for my US friends whose nation is now so debased in the eyes of the world: and that's saying a lot given that I'm British.

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

Hi @teamlabouruk.bsky.social
Can we block Trump from entering the country? I mean - he might not care about counter-tarrifs, but I bet he'd be annoyed about not being able to visit his golf course

I would laugh if there weren't a growing movement of delusions of white male supremacy in the UK and several European countries. Our own racist and misogynistic twunts will be emboldened by this daft bollock.

Time for decent Americans to also rise up against trump? Well said! We know there are many of you who reject his misogyny, law breaking, cruelty and who are embarrassed by his pettyness, jingoism and rude behaviour. Good luck.

Disinforming people about contraception is as wicked as lying about vaccines. Both seem to be done by the same people.
I don't know what the liars gain, but it seems to be others who suffer as a result.
Here is the UK National Health Service information for reference:

No one should be using unapproved channels to discuss classified information. (Or even, some would say, government information that may need to be recorded).
The inclusion of the wrong person is a result of this. But equally, if the phones have malware on them, the data may already have been leaking

I think it was a thing and an absence.
Had he afterwards said "of course it wasn't that salute: I hate nazis and fascists and racism and homophobia. No I won't address the AfD - they are terrible people. I'm so sorry for the pain I've caused" then he might have recovered.

It's not just that they're pissed: they don't trust that they can rely on future software updates, parts etc if they buy from the US.

Trump says his win gives β€˜mandate’ for β€˜far reaching investigation’ into Democrats Trump called for prosecutors to investigate multiple news organizations in a rabidly partisan speech at the justice department’s headquarters

"Trump and his aides have moved quickly to stock the DOJ’s top ranks with loyalists without regard to qualification and have effectively sidelined anyone who played a role in the failed prosecutions of the president"
This sounds bad.

On International Women’s Day, we honour the incredible contributions of women everywhere- those who have broken barriers, stood up for what’s right, and made life better for so many.

But the fight for a fairer and more equal society isn’t over, and we’ll keep pushing for change.
