There's two things about this piece - the first, obviously, is that is obviously discriminatory and whoever came up with the idea of spying on young disabled people and taking their independence away based on "infractions" should be ashamed www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Qesser Zuhrah has been rearrested under the Terrorism Act in an early-hours raid by police officers wearing face coverings. The same tactic used by ICE agents in the US. This is state intimidation, designed to silence dissent. As a movement, we must fight back.
Qesser Zuhrah was held in detention for 15 months without trial, during which she went on hunger strike. I was proud, alongside many others, to get the ambulance she urgently needed deep into that strike when her life was on the line.

Last week, she broke her silence and spoke publicly about the violence she endured at HMP Bronzefield.

Today, just one month after being released on bail, she has been rearrested under the Terrorism Act - reportedly in connection with a social media post.

She was arrested in an early-hours raid by police officers wearing face coverings. The same tactic used by ICE agents in the US.

This is state intimidation, designed to silence dissent. As a movement, we must fight back.

Whilst I hate Trump and his politics with a passion I do not agree that his faults include wearing make-up or his incontinence. I say this as someone who has to live with periods of incontinence myself and wish it wasn’t a subject to be mocked.

Motability in 2022 argued that the Transport Accessibility Gap must be closed - disabled people taking on average 38% fewer journeys on average than non-disabled peers. Now they plan to cut the amount of miles Motability scheme users can drive every year by almost half. What changed Motability?

Maga and far right populism sweeping the world has one thing right. The old world is fucked. It cannot deliver growth, peace or justice, it cannot deliver hope. But to oppose the rise of racism, hate and fear we cannot just protect what was, we need to argue for a new world and reject capitalism

Israel has illegally intercepted and arrested the Global Sumud Flotilla. It is only because governments like ours continue to enable Israel that the flotilla had to sail.  Our government must stand up for those arrested and end its complicity in genocide once and for all.
