One in two LGBT+ workers bullied or harassed at work. Shocking & unacceptable. The government's new deal for workers will oblige employers to ensure workplaces are free from harassment. We need that strengthened legal duty & union reps to make it stick news.sky.com/story/one-in-t…

I deleted the Twitter app from my phone a few weeks back because I'm sick of how unusable this site has become under Musk, find me on insta these days for more hot takes and occasional posting 🌞🔥

The great Bob Fulton has passed away this week at the age of 101. I only got to know him during the last decade of his life, and those years alone could fill up the pages of a wonderfully surreal biography. Bob was larger than life. 1/

We need to defend universalism. Universal benefits like Winter Fuel Payments & demands like Free School Meals for All ensure no-one falls through the cracks. It builds solidarity, reminding us that we all belong to the same society & deserve warmth, food security & dignity.

It is with deep sadness we announce the passing of Micheline Mason. Known to many as ALLFIE's Founder, she was an indomitable force in activism for inclusive education, the Disabled People’s Movement and beyond. Rest in love and power dearest Micheline🕊️ allfie.org.uk/uncategorised/…

Today is for my father, Pat Finucane. The announcement that there will now be a public inquiry into his murder is very much welcomed by our family. Led by my mother Geraldine, we have campaigned for decades to uncover the truth behind my father’s murder. I want to thank

Happy birthday The Poisonous Euros Atmosphere Fan, you are really missed xx

Stephen Lawrence (September 13, 1974 – April 22, 1993) would have been 50 today but was murdered by racists at 18. His family fought so hard to get some form of justice (not all his murderers are in jail) and were spied on by Met Police. Thinking of the Lawrence family today ❤️🙏🏾
