Saturday 19th April. Around 20,000 people turned up in central London to express their anger at the Supreme Court ruling on the definition of woman in the Equality Act. There was much anger but also much joy at being together in such a large protest. 🔥🔥🔥

The 24th National Demonstration For Palestine. Around 175,000 people demonstrated today for Palestine. Following the police attempts to curtail the right to protest on the last demonstration today could be regarded as a huge success.

I'm staggered by the statistics in the DR Congo. Six to seven million displaced people and around seven million dead in two wars with Rwanda. It's a conflict fueled by the imperialist extraction industries desire to profit from mining the ores needed for the production of computers.

So it was all just our lying leftist eyes. We didn't see Elon Musk do a Nazi salute. It was a "controversial gesture" that "sparked debate," and I just awkwardly invaded Poland by accident when I was trying to get to Tesco. I mean, who hasn't done that?

Victory for activist Ellen Clifford as “misleading” consultation on disability benefit reforms declared unlawful. The High Court has ruled that the Department for Work and Pensions acted unlawfully by presenting controversial benefit assessment reforms as a way to support disabled people into work.
The High Court has ruled that the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) acted unlawfully by presenting controversial benefit assessment reforms as a way to support disabled people into work, without making clear that the proposals also included “substantial”
cuts to disability benefits and that cost savings was a “primary rationale” for the proposals.

The judge also found that the consultation failed to explain that planned reforms would lead to 424,000 disabled people receiving lower benefit rates and that many would be worse off by at least £416.19 per month. The consultation, which ran for just under
8 weeks before the cost-saving changes were announced in the Autumn Statement, was also unlawfully short given the circumstances.

Solidarity with our comrade @ramsyki who is facing an attempt to expel him from The Left party in Germany. He is accused of supporting Palestine. "Specifically, they say that I do not support "Israel's right to exist" and see no prospects in a "two-state solution" It is an attack on the movement.

Solidarity with our good comrade @ramsyki who is facing an attempt to expel him from The Left party in Germany.
He is basically accused of supporting Palestine.
He says:
"Specifically, they say that I do not support "Israel's right to exist" and see no prospects in a "two-state solution" and that I do not interpret October 7th in its context and history as a "pogrom" caused by "anti-Semitism driven by a desire for destruction."
The attack on Ramsi is an attack on the whole Palestine movement!

Labour's latest attack on welfare is a disgraceful assault on the dignity of the sick and disabled. If the government really wanted to crack down on people "gaming the system", they would go after tax dodgers hoarding our country's wealth.
