Kemi Badenoch's tired of solidarity with Palestinians amidst the ongoing genocide, but she's happy to perpetuate Islamophobia. Shame on her!
We must stand together against the racist rhetoric of the establishment.
We can and must denounce violence without furthering their project of division. #LBC

I'm going to put together a thread of what the Green Party is doing differently for rights for disabled people.
The Institute of Economic Affairs free market think tank spokes person Matthew Ledger says pay people less. He's reaching because his arguments have failed.

It takes courage to stick your head above the parapet especially as a Global South person.

Heartbreaking to hear Ms Bokassa speak of her son's death. My thoughts are with Kelyan's family & friends
"She said she asked for help...but did not receive support from the authorities" - this must be looked into & more is needed to support families & protect children
