🚨| BREAKING: BrewDog is closing 10 bars across the UK, with staff reportedly given "three days' notice". Unite Hospitality: "In what universe is 3 DAYS a morally (or legally) acceptable notice period for a proper redundancy consultation for the workers impacted?!"

Western Governments including the UK have allowed the collapse of the international rules based order & tacitly accepted Israel’s genocide of the Palestinan people. Now the U.K. - with 19 countries & an EU rep - has issued ‘a strongly worded statement’. They have no shame.

NEW: Landmark decision on UK's failure to investigate Russian interference to be handed down tomorrow. A five-year legal battle in UK and European courts comes to a head: will we finally - learn the truth about the Kremlin & the Brexit vote?

🚨 RIGHT NOW opposite Labour Party HQ in London. We’ve turned their street into Jabaliya camp in Gaza. A genocide is happening, but the Labour government is supplying weapons, intelligence and diplomatic cover to the perpetrator. Protesting this is not terrorism.

Great, tenacious work by Carole and her legal team, parliamentarians and we all need this to succeed. Everything we see play out now is as a result of Brexit and the 2016 vote which stole our democracy and divided our nation.

That this is presented by the media as “policy” is why we are in this mess. These are not serious people. These are monkey tennis ideas, as divorced from the reality of criminal justice as you might expect from a company fronted by multi-millionaire simpletons.

🔺Nigel Farage speech: persistent offenders would face life sentences The Reform UK leader pledged more prison spaces, deportation of criminals and zero-tolerance policing as part of a six-week Lawless Britain campaign drive thetimes.com/uk/politics/ar…

Farage should never be interviewed without being forced to answer for failures of Brexit. That the man whose lies fuelled Brexit vote which has cost UK Billions & who said Liz Truss budget was “best Tory budget since 1986” could be trusted on *anything* is mind-boggling #bbclaura

There are dozens of these male offenders in hard right cults across the country. They don’t want to protect your children, they want to abuse them.


Israel's official campaign of genocide continues in Gaza unchallenged by those countries who are guarantors of Israel. We are complicit.

At least 32 people were killed and more than 100 injured on Saturday when Israeli troops opened fire on crowds of Palestinians seeking food from two aid distribution hubs in southern Gaza, according to witnesses and hospital officials.

As a high school teacher, I can honestly say I'd rather trust democracy to 16 year olds than spiteful, elderly Daily Mail readers every day of the week.


We get to see the return of the bendy bus with a different name in the meantime Manchester is looking at an underground rail network! SERIOUSLY WTF!

Will @LCRMayor stand up and explain that these will need dedicated lanes, segregated from private cars in order to work well... Because without the 'glider lanes', this is just a bus. It won't glide anywhere quickly.



An interesting one here. Very much in the public interest for the injunction to be lifted if there is one. Since @lewis_goodall is on a roll, maybe he'll take an interest in Owen's peerage?

While we're talking about superinjunctions, can anybody report on why Charlotte Owen got her peerage yet?

I don't understand Reform objecting to 16/17 year old voters. Surely they would want their councillors to vote....

Today we’re delivering on our promise to give 16 and 17 year olds the right to vote. Young people already contribute to society by working, paying taxes and serving in the military. It's only right they can have a say on the issues that affect them. #VotesAt16


The Reform bots and trolls are out and going nuts at the proposal to finally lower the voting age to 16. They know young people are less likely to buy into Farage's bullshit and have no truck for the politics of division and hate

I don't know that many 16/17yos paying income tax. Do you?

As Labour announces16/17 year olds across the UK will get the vote by the end of this Parliament, keeping Reform out of government could hinge on them.
