I don't know much about Quakers, but my guess is that if you're breaking into a meeting house, and arresting young women for attending a meeting... You're probably on the wrong side of history. Honestly when I read the headline, I assumed it was in the US www.quaker.org.uk/news-and-eve...

Let this sink in - Rachel Reeves and Keir Starmer are choosing to push 50,000 children into poverty - but won't ask multi-millionaires and billionaires to pay a little bit more tax. Absolutely sickening.

Disability benefit cuts will push over 250,000 people, including 50,000 children, into poverty. So I asked the Chancellor — who earns over £150,000, accepted £7,500 in free clothes & took freebie tickets to see Sabrina Carpenter — if Austerity 2.0 is the "change" people voted for?

Congratulations to @pollytoynbee.bsky.social, whose energetic campaign to get @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social ousted as leader of the Labour Party (including spreading malicious lies about him, leading to Labour's 2019 General Election loss) helped pave the way for the ToryLite coup... and these cuts! 👏👏👏

I note with interest right-wing media's total absence of any concerns about prominent BBC presenter Armstrong expressing his highly political opinions. As was always perfectly clear to many of us, the problem was not that Lineker had views, but the fact they didn't approve of his views.

From "I'd march with you if you were discriminated against on the basis of being trans" to spending Valentine's Day posting gratuitous transphobia about a doctor and a newsreader on a hate site run by a fascist. It's really quite the journey.

BBC - "PM pledges to close loophole that let Gazans settle in UK" How low and obscene can #KeirStarmer get? People who's homes have been destroyed by war criminals backed by the Labour party are denied refuge in UK. Shame on Starmer.

Donald Trump’s sanctions on the International Criminal Court are a disgraceful affront to justice and accountability for those responsible for the worst crimes against humanity. We stand with the ICC and those fighting for global peace and justice.

Some on benefits are 'taking the mickey', says UK minister. Some may do so, millions do not but will be victimised by cuts. What about those abusing the tax system, govt procurement, buying honours, impoverishing people with profiteering, selling dud products, crashing companies?

Government can no longer ignore the science. The cost of inaction is incalculable. The recent Los Angeles fires alone could cost up to $275 billion, and as extreme weather events become increasingly common and more severe, the price tag will continue to spiral.

The President of the United States welcome a leader wanted by the ICC and officially endorsed ethnic cleansing. Now would be a good time for our government to defend international law. If they won’t say it, we will: Palestinians aren’t going anywhere.

🥀Labour are out of touch with the working class; it's time for real progressive change. We need to tackle the root cause of poverty, and that can’t be done without action to close the wealth gap between the ultra-rich and Scottish workers.

Britain’s welfare system is woefully inadequate and leaves many people facing serious hardship. It is both laughable and a disgrace that Starmer can demonise state welfare as “blighting our society” whilst ignoring tax avoidance by the super rich.

Israel destroyed 83% of plant life in Gaza by June this year. It destroyed 70% of its agricultural land. It damaged or destroyed 65% of water tanks and 47% of groundwater wells. Israel has deliberately tried to make Gaza uninhabitable. This is genocide.
