The Metropolitan Police is completely unaccountable for the way it cracks down on protests in London. That doesn’t change unless we take action ourselves. On Tuesday 24 March at 9.30am, join us at London City Hall, Kamal Chunchie Way, London E16 1ZE PROTEST 24 MARCH: netpol.org/2026/03/12/e...

On 18 April, we fight back. Join thousands from over 50 organisations as we march through #London to demand rent controls and a massive investment in council homes. No more excuses. #NoMoreDeathsOnOurStreets.

Not how "squatters rights" work, but funny

BREAKING: The Met police have raided Westminster Quaker Meeting House. AGAIN. Once again the basis of the raid is conspiracy to protest. It's a violation of freedom of expression & association rights. Not to mention freedom of religion for the Quakers too.

Our latest investigation into homelessness and extreme weather has highlighted continued failings museumofhomelessness.org/news/new-fin...

Wolf of #Truth & Bear of Honour is here with mail for Carlo Soracchi. #spycops

This man (#spycops gang-member Carlo Soracchi) should see a doctor for amnesia. He can't remember anything about his sexual deception & abuse of 'Lindsey'. Trying to spin a line that the things he's done wrong 'haunt him' because that's the kinda guy he says he is. If only!

Remembering the squatting of Tolmers Village that saved half the square 50 years back. What now? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This week the #spycops inquiry will be grilling Soracchi on his abuse of - women - taxpayers - protestors rights ..... and generally shoring up this system that's starting another insane war.

BREAKING: Israel has illegally bombed Iran. Today we’ll be protesting at RAF Marham, in London 👇 and around the country. #NoWarOnIran

Reminder, our advice (which is what we're here for) is for crews to have an email, not connected to an individual. This should be written on the latest legal warning (on our website), which explains why owners should serve any documents on that address before doing anything.

Lynne Segal recalls 1970s Islington as a feminist ecosystem: single mothers living collectively, women’s centres, childcare, squats, presses and strike support. Care and solidarity—then systematically attacked under Thatcher. howl-uk.org/islington-lo...

Every #spycops officer at the public inquiry seems worse than the last. We've reached the end of testimony of Jim Boyling who infiltrated Reclaim The Streets, deceived 3 women into relationships, fathering 2 kids with 1 of them. He's as unremorseful as he is repellent www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zJO...
