@NetworkRail, can you tell me why you are allowing #Velo to give highly addictive, carcinogenic, nicotine pouches free to commuters? I've watched them while waiting for my train, and they are targeting young people with vile substances, packaged up, and advertised as platform prizes.

I'll never forget the trip to #auchwitz with my brother and sister some years ago. Sharing this pic of the #women's block in #birkenau for #holocaustmemorialday as a reminder that atrocities happen when people don't speak out.

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯

Lib Dem leader Ed Davey calls for new UK-EU customs union by 2030 to help boost growth & insulate UK from impacts of Trump presidency. Labour ruled this out in manifesto & has no appetite to revisit as difficult politically, regardless of potential boost to economy.

Children walking dark roads in winter, 11hr journeys for 30min visits, families skipping meals to afford prison visits - families shouldn't pay such a heavy price to maintain vital connections. Read our latest @together-sacr.bsky.social blog from @familiesoutside.bsky.social #UNCRCScotland

The Scheme ( a recovery focused charity, of which I am a proud trustee). For 17 weeks we carried out acting and filmmaking workshops. At EVERY step of the way the groups were full of love, support, creativity. Today we premiered our short film AND rap at Reconnect Theatres Howden. 👌
