Here's a regular reminder that 6 in 10 people in the UK are represented by an MP they didn't vote for. That's not counting the people who didn't feel inspired to vote at all. Or those who voted tactically but would've preferred someone else. We deserve better. #PRnow.

🚨 Bottom trawling is bulldozing ocean life. A single trawl can wipe out seabed invertebrate diversity by 26%. This is legal in UK marine protected areas. But when it’s banned, life rebounds fast. 📣 On World Day of Biological Diversity, help us demand a ban. act.for-the-ocean.org/act/protect-...

The 50% drop in net migration just announced will surprise precisely nobody who has been paying attention to the issue, as opposed to exploiting and lying about it for clicks & votes. I doubt the stats will change the toxic narratives of the latter group, though.

Israeli soldiers intentionally fired at a delegation of about 30 Arab & EU diplomats, ambassadors and consuls, visiting Jenin refugee camp, in the West Bank. Israel claims "it was an accident" and that they fired "warning shots" because they "felt in danger". Israel was trying to intimidate them.

In 48 hours, over 200 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza. Keir Starmer’s government still won’t condemn Israel or call it genocide. Won’t end arms sales. Won’t impose sanctions. Won’t stop trade. This isn’t just complicity, it’s collaboration. They have blood on their hands.
