Everyone should see this. Watch it, share it - these are the voices we need to hear that are so often ignored in the poisonous debate about hotels.

It really cannot be overstated at this point enough that literally in some of the whitest suburbs of the city, we have armed Gestapo agents going door-to-door, asking people to turn in their neighbors.

I keep glancing off these findings, and the projections from day one of vast, 'off-stage', planetary carnage of Trump's regime. It's hard to take in. There can be no mercy for such evil-doers.

The Labour government will articulate a principle that a person who meets the criteria of being a refugee (have a genuine fear of persecution, sufficient to have to leave their home) has a responsibility to contribite to the cost of a democratic society meeting its obligation to hear that claim

Banning talented, resilient people from work has never made sense. Members of the House of Lords just told the Government that the absurd asylum work ban has to go. Now we need to show them the public feels the same. Tell the minister to Lift The Ban:

I signed this letter, along with proud Brummies who know that Birmingham wouldn’t be Birmingham without people from around the world. But we’re worried our proud tradition of sanctuary is being undermined by divisive rhetoric and dangerous policy. 👇

What we’re witnessing is not just the release of prisoners — it is the return of hostages. In a rare moment of light, this man is finally reunited with his family after being held in CECOT. It is a beautiful, human moment — a testament to love, resilience, and the power of freedom. 1/2

If you wrote a story about a regime so comically evil that it literally snatches people from their citizenship interviews, you'd be accused of over-the-top imaginings.

The bodies of 14 Palestinian Red Crescent+civil defense workers who were arrested and killed by the Israeli army were found today buried in a hall in the ground in Rafah. 14 true humanitarians who risked their all for their fellow brothers and sisters. Heroes, in the greatest sense of the word.
