Man, this thread was quite a ride.

Demonstrating again why she was a poor choice for chair of the Charity Commission. The current chair has been much better at defending charities' right to campaign.

Lucy Fisher Peter Foster The initiative by Suella Braverman to limit the provision of tents to rough sleepers is a contentious legal matter that intersects with social welfare policies and human rights. The proposed civil offence for charities could raise questions under the Human Rights Act 1998, which

We could get angry at Suella’s latest piece of performative, pandering cruelty or… instead: let’s promote the excellent work done by Shelter, Centrepoint, The Passage Charity and other fine charities actually trying to help homeless people, especially now, as winter approaches.

An extended case study on why this is a self defeating argument - using Teesside University, which Simon is rightly very proud of.

Is this real? Surely the PM didn't say this. I've seen the video and can't actually believe my ears. Incredible lack of self-awareness.

Interesting figures from the Charity Commission: Charity applications reach record high (9k) amid “cost-of-living challenges and international instability” New inquiries (89), whistleblowing reports (561) and serious incidents (3.1k) all up in 2023-24

In a week's time, the duties on SUs under the Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) Act kick in, as does the new complaints scheme - but OfS' response to the consultations on how those duties will work has still not been published. It's completely unreasonable and unacceptable to

Starting today, Charity Bank will no longer be active on X (formerly known as Twitter). We believe in a society where everyone respects each other.  Unfortunately, recent changes at X make this difficult. There is too much disinformation and hate speech, and not enough
