🔴 Cost of climate change: as extreme heat gets more common in the UK, mosques are facing a costly battle to make themselves safe for congregations in the summer months. Story by Yousra Samir Imran 👇 hyphenonline.com/2025/08/06/mos…

In July, Science, Innovation and Technology Committee found the #OnlineSafetyAct doesn't address the algorithmic amplification of misinformation used to fuel harm during the unrest last summer. Read Hyphen’s piece on how the same X accounts still target UK Muslims: hyphenonline.com/2025/07/30/end…

Whatever you think of carceral justice, running it this badly serves no one. Stories like this are the norm, and have been for as long as I've been working in courtrooms (since 2008).

👏 yes! Normalise holding landlords accountable for landlordism. The online army who've been trying to justify this all day even though they'll never be able to afford a house are only proving how deeply the landlord class has dug its claws into our moral fibre as a society.

Lovely piece on Hyphen today about the restoration of My Beautiful Laundrette – a film I last saw on VHS so it's time for a rewatch. As a kid who grew up obsessed with the 1980s and London, I remember it seeming somehow both timeless and very of its time. hyphenonline.com/2025/08/07/my-…

Apparently no one involved in this piece remembered that there is a global movement to boycott Coke because of its complicity in war crimes, making "Coke alternatives are pretentious and snooty" quite a stupid thing to publish ft.com/content/9040c0…

I wonder if Helen and the Tories would also like to criminalise tax cutting advice that runs every spring in the broadsheets? When the wealthy and healthy do it, it’s information. When the poor and disabled do it, it’s scrounging.

Worrying to see that accounts which spread disinformation related to the riots last July are *still going* on X - and spreading racist lies about British Muslim politicians. Thank you Hyphen & Lucas Cumiskey for this important and concerning investigation

Wanted to share again these awful testimonies from doctors working in Gaza during Israel's campaign of destruction. MPs heard these testimonies while just a few corridors away their colleagues were voting to criminalise support for Palestine Action. hyphenonline.com/2025/07/03/pal…

This claim by the home secretary - that active court proceedings have prevented the publication of information about PA, which could mean something like a section 4(2) order is in place for a case that's already concluded - ought to be easily verifiable by court reporters.

Ah yes, like when councils reduce housing waiting lists by removing people who've waited so long that they've died without getting a home.

The Labour right wants Wes Streeting in No 10. Why? What does he really stand for? | Oliver Eagleton theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

this is a screenshot from the sun in 2017 btw. quite a lot of people with poor reading comprehension in the replies seem to think it's a quote from a piece that is (rightly) very critical of streeting and neoliberalism
