So many people, who know little about assisted dying or abortion legislation, are ready to denounce them in full – based on misinformation. In this article, we myth-bust to cut through the noise, look at the legislation, and reaffirm the facts. humanists.uk/2025/06/27/f...

We're very pleased that, following over 70,000 complaints made by our followers to Ofcom, GB News has axed one of its homophobic shows. Ofcom's investigation, that your complaints sparked, continues. goodlaw.social/vc22
