1474 deaths of people experiencing homelessness this year. @our_MoH vigil very moving and sad as always. UK Prime Minister can you help us tackle this tragedy 😢

🚨 Over 100 Labour Muslim Councillors have come together to write to the Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer calling for a complete end to arms sales to Israel. With over 40,000+ killed, including over 16,000 children, this letter calls it our "moral obligation to act now." 1/2

Very happy to learn that the investigation into the charity Mermaids has concluded with no finding of misconduct. The Charity Commission confirmed that Mermaids did not provided medical advice or act improperly in their work with children, young people and their families.

Terf groups astroturfed complaints against one of the few charities supporting trans youth, alongside articles in the rightwing press. The Charity Commission then conducted a lawfare investigation for TWO YEARS. Only to find there was no misconduct. Go figure.

Weird choice of headline given the primary finding (as quoted in the second paragraph of the piece) was that "the regulator found no evidence for some other complaints against Mermaids, including that it provided medical advice to young people." buff.ly/4hkWzj8

40 years ago, Haringey Council leader and later Labour MP Bernie Grant stood on picket lines boycotting South African apartheid Today, the Labour Council whips its councillors to oppose a boycott of Israeli apartheid whilst Tottenham's Labour MP poses in pics with Netanyahu.

I'm actually old enough to remember when the labour right told us that we have to win elections so we could reduce child poverty, just like Blair did.

❗️BREAKING — The UK Ministry of Defence admits it is “currently training” Israeli military personnel in Britain. The Labour government has until now refused to answer questions about this, which we covered last year. 👉 declassifieduk.org/amid-lebanon-i…

Haringey Council is complicit through its pension investments in companies that are implementing a genocide The self-titled 'Rebel Borough' describes the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians as merely a 'conflict.' Why won't they speak up on genocide?
