The horrific train attack last weekend could have been so much worse - but thanks to the incredible bravery of rail staff and passengers, lives were saved. Heroes like Samir Zitouni, who blocked the attacker to protect others, deserve national recognition. Let’s make sure they get it.

Video report: Polluters get their just desserts! 🍰💩 Southern Water nearly doubled their CEO's pay to £1.4m, despite a ban on bonuses for polluting bosses. Does that seem fair to you? Spread the news! #sewage

Colossal amounts of OUR money is being stuffed into the pockets of energy giants – all while they lay off hardworking Brits and pay out billions to shareholders.

Yesterday we took the fight against child poverty to Downing Street along with Labour MPs Alex Ballinger, Dr Beccy Cooper and Dawn Butler.

British public: The cost of living crisis is crushing working people. Nigel: What if minimum wage workers make even less? Many of the companies paying workers minimum wage make billions in profit every year. Why do the Reform Party want to squeeze the working class instead of taxing the super rich?

These special places are the heart of our nation. We can't let them be bulldozed and lost for future generations.

Nigel Farage: proud presenter, absent MP.

🚀 It's not rocket science, Elon: we don't want you, your "hard men", or your attempts at stirring chaos & disorder in our country. Just STOP.

Isn't this what it's all about? Small acts that add up to something bigger: a movement for a better Britain – for 𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮𝙤𝙣𝙚 who calls our country home ♥️ Thank you so much to the 38 Degrees supporter who sent us this message after taking action with our #RefugeesWelcomeHere poster.

£20bn sounds like a lot, but just a 2% tax on assets over £10 million would raise £24bn. That’s a tax that would only affect the top 20,000 richest people in the country. The idea that Rachel Reeves needs to raise taxes on working people to balance the budget is simply false. Tax the ultra-rich.

The Reform Party’s newest MP, Sarah Pochin, has admitted her comments were “phrased poorly”. Let’s call them what they were: racist. This half-baked apology is not enough. The Reform Party must suspend Pochin immediately to show that racism has no place in politics.

Three Nazi-inspired extremists have been jailed after plotting attacks on Muslim and Jewish communities. This wasn't an idle threat of violence. They were assembling 3D-printed guns, stockpiling 200 weapons, and actively recruiting members.

Over 25,000 NHS staff received car parking fines at hospitals last year. One neonatal nurse even had to borrow money to pay their fine after rushing to relieve a colleague on shift. Should NHS staff be punished for turning up to care for patients?

🚨 Yet another new low for the water industry. The Environment Agency has just given eight out of nine water companies a failing grade - the worst results on record. Privatised water has failed customers and our environment. It’s time for a system that puts people and planet before profit.

After a decade of tireless campaigning, Claire Throssell’s fight for her sons, Jack and Paul, has finally changed the law! The Government has announced it will scrap the “presumption of contact” - a rule that often forced children to have contact with abusive parents.

Did you know fifteen penguins are trapped at Sea Life London in a basement with no daylight, no fresh air, and a pool just a few feet deep? We need to make sure Sea Life hears us loud and clear: these penguins deserve a real life.⁣

“Everything is too expensive and nothing works”. Is it finally time to end the failed privatisation experiment?

If you want to run the country, you should probably start by paying your taxes 👀

Prince Andrew is accused of appalling sexual abuse. He told Jeffrey Epstein “we’re in this together”. He pushed the police for personal information about his accuser. Yet he STILL holds his royal titles.

The Reform Party’s biggest council is descending into chaos. Its leader, Linden Kemkaran, was caught on video shouting down fellow Kent councillors and telling them to “suck it up”. If this is how Reform runs its flagship council, does this make you concerned about its ability to run the country?

Fifteen penguins at Sea Life London are trapped in a basement with no daylight, no fresh air, and a pool just a few feet deep. Sea Life needs to hear us loud and clear: these penguins deserve a real life.

Did you know the UK has the worst paternity leave in Europe? New dads in the UK get just two weeks off work and are paid less than minimum wage. In Sweden, dads get 34 weeks on 80% pay.

Last week the water regulator approved price hikes for five companies despite sewage spills, leaks, and record executive pay. This is what you had to say.

The Energy Secretary recently announced a ban on fracking! After years of campaigning, 38 Degrees supporters helped make it happen. Together, our voices became impossible to ignore. Here’s what supporters had to say about the win.

The first ever crypto donation to a UK political party has been made - reportedly to Reform UK. But who’s behind it? Experts are warning crypto donations could open the door to dark money, foreign interference and even organised crime. Should crypto donations be banned before it’s too late?

Why should Trump set our prices? Trump is trying to bully the UK into accepting higher prices for vital medicines so that his friends in big pharma can boost their profits.

Fifteen penguins at Sea Life London are trapped in a basement enclosure with no daylight, no fresh air, and barely any room to swim.

Why we & @justtreatment.org delivered a massive cheque and 250,000 signatures to the UK government…

The UK Government is set to cave in to Trump’s demands for higher drug prices - effectively signing a giant cheque to Big Pharma. Today we & @justtreatment.org handed in 250,000 signatures to the Department of Health telling ministers to hold the line.

Right now, gambling companies are making BILLIONS in profit. Why? Because of outdated tax rules. A fairer tax could raise £3 billion: enough to scrap the cruel two-child limit and directly lift 500,000 children out of poverty overnight.

Sorry but 💀 Our rivers and seas can’t wait FIFTEEN YEARS, Thames Water.

Remember when hard work was meant to pay off? New analysis from the Resolution Foundation shows it would take 52 years of typical earnings (£1.3 million) to climb from the middle to the top of Britain’s wealth ladder.

Our national parks are under threat. The Treasury wants to weaken the laws that protect areas like Dartmoor and the Lake District by opening them up to bulldozers and roads! Right now, Ministers are debating the plans, but no decision has been made yet. That means we still have time to stop it.

Millions of us are about to be hit with even higher water bills as Anglian, Northumbrian, Southern, Wessex and South East water companies pushed regulators to let them hike prices even further than already agreed.

The attack in Heaton Park was a vile and heinous attack on our Jewish neighbours. The arson attack on a mosque in Sussex was a hate-fuelled attack on our Muslim neighbours. We want to believe that "this isn't who we are", but we have to stand up and show that the vast majority don't want division.

Trump and the tech billionaires want cuts, but Tax Justice has worked out we’d stand to lose £5 BILLION in tax. Hands up who’d prefer to see that money spent on our NHS. 🙋

When world bronze medallist Hector Pardoe set out to swim the UK’s three biggest lakes, the greatest danger wasn’t the cold or distance; it was pollution. After swimming 55km through sewage-tainted water, he’s using his platform to call for change. When we swim together, our current is stronger.

While UK billionaires get £35 million richer every day, our public services continue to crumble. It’s time the ultra-rich paid their fair share.

Why is NHS funding going to private pockets?

The Government is rushing through new laws that could make protests almost impossible - banning “repeated protests”, capping how long they can last, limiting how many people can attend, and even forcing them to move.

An arson attack on a mosque in East Sussex is being investigated as a hate crime. While no one was physically hurt, this appalling act has left many feeling less safe. We stand in solidarity with the Muslim community and everyone affected.

It only takes a moment to help save our hedgehogs 🦔 Now officially listed as near threatened, our hedgehog numbers have crashed by at least 30% in just ten years 💔 But there’s a simple way to help: hedgehog highways. This just means a small hole in a fence or wall to let them roam more safely.

Our thoughts, love and solidarity are with the people affected by the heinous attack on the Heaton Park synagogue, and to the whole Jewish community in Manchester, Bury and across the country marking this holy and solemn day of Yom Kippur. Antisemitism, hate and division can never win.

HOPE not hate condemn the appalling, violent attack at a synagogue in Manchester which has taken place on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar. Our thoughts are with the Jewish community and all affected.

Elon Musk isn’t just dabbling in UK politics; he’s amplifying far-right voices, fuelling unrest, and even calling for the dissolution of parliament. Should we really be letting a billionaire with extreme views interfere in our democracy? Thread 👇

We need a better press, and the Government has to stand up to the likes of Murdoch to make it happen. Hugh Grant has this warning for Keir Starmer. @hackedoff.bsky.social

🗞️ JUST IN: PPE Medpro - the firm linked to Michelle Mone - must repay £122m to the UK Government, a judge has ruled. The trial heard that 25 million surgical gowns supplied by the firm to protect NHS staff were UNUSABLE and could ‘seriously harm or kill patients’.

💥 𝗘𝗫𝗖𝗟𝗨𝗦𝗜𝗩𝗘: Energy Secretary Ed Miliband promises to BAN FRACKING FOR GOOD in a message to 38 Degrees supporters ahead of his conference speech today. "You called for it. I’m going to do it. Thank you for your campaigning." Together our voices became impossible to ignore.

For too long, the UK press have bullied people, harassed grieving families, and destroyed lives, all to sell papers. It's time to hold them to account. Over 35,000 have already signed the petition to change the law. Let’s get it to 40,000🙏 you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/a-...
