Hungarians have brought an end to Viktor Orbán's 16-year rule as Prime Minister of Hungary, with opposition Tisza party, led by Péter Magyar, winning the election. The incoming government needs to restore the rule of law, end rule by decree and restore press freedom and assembly rights.

The Government's cruel changes to settlement rules will tear families apart and push people into years of fear and uncertainty. Opposition is growing from MPs and the public alike. The Government must listen and stop these harmful plans now. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Can't tell you how many members of Congress who *at best* had nothing to say when I asked about the Minab girls school attack. There is a profanely cold detachment inside Capitol Hill, a mode completely unrecognizable to common human decency I wish I could properly convey to you.

This is Apartheid. It's morally disgusting - and comes at the same time as Israel is committing an ongoing genocide. To see the Labour Government defend Israel repeatedly will horrify the British public - it cannot go on like this.

The answer is simple. The Home Office and the anti-immigration lobby in the media know perfectly well that the actual argument for these proposals has been comprehensively lost and they need therefore both to misrepresent what they mean *and* public attitudes. (1/2)

People near the UK's Akrotiri base on Cyprus are opposing its expansion and seeking legal action to prevent the UK military installing dozens of permanent new antennae. knews.kathimerini.com.cy/en/news/akro...

Half a million people standing against the far right. Half a million people who care about each other and our communities. Half a million people ready to make hope normal again.

Been thinking about it since I saw JK Rowling posted this yesterday about the IOC's new policy, calling Imane Khelif a man. Imane Khelif was born female. She was raised as a girl. Her original birth certificate says female. She's always been a woman. But sure. "Men punching women."

All four countries have high recognition rates - there was a 98% grant rate for Cameroonians claiming on the basis of sexual orientation in the most recent stats open.substack.com/pub/thoughts...

This is how someone acts when the GOP in Congress and the radicals on SCOTUS have utterly enabled him.

Receiving refugee status in the UK should be a moment for people to celebrate and finally start rebuilding their lives in safety, after escaping war and persecution. Instead, they have to overcome endless bureaucratic hurdles and the threat of homelessness.

The UK abstained.

The Prime Minister’s plan for immigration will keep people working in key industries like care in temporary status for a decade or more, it will keep people in insecure work, make them more easily exploitable, poorer and marginalised - when did that become the policy of a Labour government?

Blair’s Labour gave refugees permanent residence as soon as their asylum claim was granted. And. Nobody. Minded. Senior immigration officials delude themselves - and Ministers - that these distinctions matter to publics They don’t, only immigration bureaucrats care.

We have seen internal Met police guidance which aims to clarify how “death to the IDF” chants should be dealt with. It states that being an IDF soldier should not be considered a protected characteristic – in part because many Britons are serving for Israel. www.declassifieduk.org/revealed-the...

An excellent piece on the flimsy evidence & racial profiling behind immigration raids in the UK. As the reporter spells out, tip-offs are anonymous & can be made by people with personal gripes. I've started to look into this and there is clearly a pattern... www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

A line from this absolutely brilliant film is that the Home Office operate like a 'mafia' from London in places away from racist politics of Downing St. Home Office raids with police assiance operate as unwanted occupying forces. Neighbours, solidarity, justice and community are everything.

It’s devastating that Girlguiding has announced plans to exclude existing trans girl guides from September. The Supreme Court ruling is being weaponised to bully previously inclusive organisations into abandoning members of their own community. [1/2]

And this is an exact reminder of why we must stand against both Antisemitism and Islamophobia. The cynical forces who seek to divide our communities must never win. We will stand together.

This is what a lot of people seem to be overlooking… a bored man with power is dangerous. 🧊 is used to being able to drive off & find new sport, hidden by masks & tinted windows. Stuck in an airport subject to thousands of people’s scorn with no escape and hair trigger tempers…

This horrible story points up a difference between alleged and actual political extremists. Zack Polanski correctly says antisemitism is vile, and has no place here. Nigel Farage, with no evidence yet, whines about migrants, suggesting the attackers came from Iran... www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cz...

This is a horrendous case, and I tend to be of the opinion Wixon should get life. It highlights a big issue with the way modern slavery and trafficking is often treated as an "immigration offence" though. Most victims, in UK, are UK citizens abused by UK citizens. 1/4 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

We are intersectional because feminism and equality demand it. We are intersectional because there is simply no other way to be. None of us would turn our back on our trans siblings, and that upsets some. None of us would ignore our siblings in immigration detention, and that upsets a whole lot.

Iranians, already living under chokehold of sanctions, bullets of a police regime, now experience Israeli + US bombing in what has been described as an initial phase. Unsure of the relevance, atp, of mentioning that jus ad bellum doesn’t allow for preemption. Jus in bello doesn’t cover this either:

"The attack on Iran is a clear violation of the UN charter, in any absence of any credible, imminent Iranian threat to the US." And the UK government must say so, loudly and clearly www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

OK which is it: 1) Muslim voters will bring in regressive Sharia and destroy democracy 2) Muslim voters will let in lefty woke Marxists and destroy democracy I need them to pick ONE 🤣

Only one in five Americans supported an attack on Iran. But Trump did it anyways.
