This week we laid out a memorial to the more than 11,500 Palestinian children and 36 Israeli children who’ve been killed since October 7th. It was a line 5km long of children’s clothes. Huge thanks to the volunteers who came to Bournemouth and made this happen #CeasefireNow

I am the only Palestinian American serving in Congress, and my perspective is needed here now more than ever. I will not be silenced and I will not let anyone distort my words.

I’m from Detroit, where I learned to speak truth to power, even if my voice shakes.

Thank you Chicken & Egg Pictures! 🩷

What this headline omits is that this show is from writer & actor Kyla Harris, one of the UK’s best up-and-coming creative talents, and an extraordinarily brilliant human too 💜 Don’t miss WE MIGHT REGRET THIS when it lands on screens! It’s sexy, smart, provocative and hilarious.

Oh No. Everyone In This Meeting Is Coughing. Why Hasn’t Anyone Invented A Device That Could Keep All That Gunk Flying Through The Air Out Of My Lungs.

Must-read. “There is apparently no money for Sure Start centres but you’ll be relieved to hear ministers have found £8m to offer every public body a free portrait of King Charles…The new deputy PM…says the portraits would bring the nation together. So would working hospitals.”

A couple people asked me to post the #ALeagueOfTheirOwn speech from the #GLAADawards last night, so here goes: “We so honored to accept this award on behalf of the incredible community that made this show, which is about queer joy in a dark time.” 1/?

In case you still don’t understand Rt Hon Grant Shapps MP, there aren’t any ambulances NOW, because your abhorrent, money-grubbing party has run our treasured #NHS into the ground. Twice in the last 6wks we’ve phoned and learned there are no ambulances on non-strike days #SupportTheStrike

People aren’t dying because nurses are striking.

Nurses are striking because people are dying.

Get the narrative right BBC News (UK) 😡

Hi Rishi Sunak We called an ambulance 4 wks ago on a regular non-strike day and were told that there were NO ambulances at all, and to call 111… Who told us to call an ambulance. Our brilliant NHS staff are working tirelessly despite you undermining them. We must #ProtectTheNHS

Solidarity with nurses on strike today, as they stand-up for themselves, patients and the whole NHS 💙

Annoyed about the train strikes ruining your Christmas or having to wait 12 hours for an ambulance? Why don’t you simply not vote tory next time? x

All nurses, please add your stories 🙏

Liz Truss going is not enough.

Austerity must go.

Poverty wages must go.

Foodbank queues must go.

Cold homes in winter must go.

A new suit in Downing Street means nothing to our people.

Fix the society you have broken – or get out of the way.
