Could #Thameslink have made their trains any more uncomfortable?!

Here is a tale of ordinary misogyny. Except it isn’t. This man is a barrister who has been warned before, and who feels so secure, that he provides his chambers contact in his Twitter profile. Here is the Tweet, please follow the thread:

WINDRUSH VICTIMS VOICE ANGER OVER GOVERNEMENT PROPOSALS TO PAY ASYLUM SEEKERS UPTO £40K TO LEAVE THE UK "We have worked & paid taxes, yet we can't even get legal aid to challenege the Home Office, while 'failed asylum seekers' can access everything, including housing and money to leave the UK."

UK should not be sending King Chas to visit this deranged would-be dictator!

NEXT SUNDAY! All Remembered Mothers' names to me please by 10p.m Saturday 14th. Reposts appreciated.

I rarely talk about personal stuff on here, but I recently removed myself from an unsafe situation, and am currently trying to recover financially. I am putting it out there that I'm available for work either as an artist or art director. If anyone is interested please get in touch! ❤️

Amos Goldberg, Professor of Genocide Studies at The Hebrew University in Jerusalem "Yes, it is genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion. Jewish history will henceforth be stained" Is there anyone more qualified and unbiased?

Every day there are errors on the BBC News website. They really should bring back proofreading before publishing

“Dear Diary, Super excited to say that I’ll be serving my Clacton constituents today by flying to Mar-a-Lago to meet Donald Trump and to undermine the UK government. God I love being a patriot!”

I think Starmer has made the wrong choice here. As the headline says, it’s the US and Israel’s war not the UK’s. It’s also an illegal war that the UK should stay far away from. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

#DirtyBusiness exposed the human cost of profit before public health. Our water system won’t be fixed with tinkering. It needs public ownership. I’ve asked my MP to attend the MP drop-in on 17th March & hear that message directly from sewage campaigners: actionnetwork.org/letters/ask-...

Please, BBC News, would you stop treating what comes out of the White House and Pentagon as normal. It really, really isn’t.

You may think this doesn’t affect you. You’re wrong. Any image you post, your dog’s/cat’s photo, your child’s 1st day at school, your wedding day. The govt’s plans mean you won’t even have to be acknowledged as the creator. AI can harvest them and use them for any purpose, you’ll have no control.

🚨 It looks like the UK government is gearing up to upend copyright law in favour of AI companies, legalising the theft of their work. This is despite creatives' huge protests, and despite previous proposals being roundly rejected by the public. Please spread the word. 🧵 1/4

Urrrghhh Bahrain and Dubai expats (AKA tax dodgers) now demanding UK help to come 'home'. Apart from the fact these countries are ethically dodgy as f*ck, you made your tax free bed folks. Time to lie in it.

Healthcare workers with Long Covid — your voice matters. Ahead of the UK Covid Inquiry Module 3 report (18/3), we’re compiling a list of healthcare workers with Long Covid willing to speak to journalists. The list will be shared with @LongCovidSOS.

Once more praising the wonderful #DirtyBusiness, searing indictment of the political mindset of the UK government since 1979 (always the same): cut regulation! Free the entrepreneurs! The banks crash, the rivers fill with shit and the world burns. The answer? Cut regulation! Free the entrepreneurs!

Ladies, if we thought it was bad then, look at what it’s like now. An imperative read. Please share too, we have to educate our children 🥺🥺🥺 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Especially enjoyed the scene in episode 2 where victims get to voice their complaints to water executives. Despicable but still being rewarded for planned failure and effectively without regulation.

Are you watching Dirty Business? I can't believe how much water companies have gotten away with. They're putting profit before public health - it’s a scandal and the Government MUST take action! Sick of sewage? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/pr...

Heartbreaking: Right now, thousands of Puffins are washing up along our coasts and further afield. It is devastating to see. These birds are Red-listed in the UK and already under serious pressure. Mass deaths like this, known as a “seabird wreck”, can take years for colonies to recover from...

She never lived to see this moment, but it’s worth remembering that none of this would have happened without Virginia Giuffre. She had the courage to speak out against power and privilege when it was just her word against Andrew’s. Thanks to her, justice & accountability may finally have its day.

Not sure I’m going to get much work done today. I know there won’t be any actual info, but it’s a moment in history I want to get my fill of.

Blimey!! Glad both the late queen and Prince Philip aren’t here to see this. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c7...

Remember the hanging chads debacle of the 2000 Presidential election? If Jeb Bush hadn’t gifted Florida to George, Al Gore would have been president and the world would be in a very different situation. Climate change would have bern high on the agenda and we wouldn’t be going to hell in a handcart.
