Please contact your Labour MP and ask them to respect the ruling rather than appealing.

This is pretty much the only post anyone should need to understand that Farage is a traitor, a conman and a populist simpleton who must *never* be given power.

It's so disheartening - especially when you can see our potential dystopian future playing out in the US!

(3/3) I then went into a polite monologue about that not being a surprise (I'm a white dual US/UK citizen) and how upset I am to be having this conversation in my adopted home that I love - the North East.

There were young lads there with their dads. I hope that they heard what I was saying.

(2/3) Despite his friends telling him it was not a good subject for a crowded train, he didn't stop. Finally, I said I am an immigrant & your conversation is making me uncomfortable.

He replied with the inevitable. It's not immigrants like you that I have a problem with.

(1/3) Afterglow of the #NUFC match win was dimmed by a guy on the crowded train home saying loudly that he was a racist and that refugees were wrecking the country.

My comment to him about oligarchs actually hoarding wealth being the problem was met by the verbal equivalent of a blank stare.

Are you a paranoid dementia sufferer abandoned by their family after a lifetime of hurtful acts? Traffic yourself a new international bride with Dream Singles.

Countering Domestic Terrorism and Organized Political Violence NATIONAL SECURITY PRESIDENTIAL MEMORANDUM/NSPM-7 MEMORANDUM FOR THE SECRETARY OF STATE Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β  THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY THE ATTORNEY GENERAL

All US activists, but especially those living abroad, should read this EO. Clearly it is based on fabrication & twisting of partial facts to fit a false narrative. But we need to figure out what exactly are the legal implications of this.

Fired up after marching with @indivisiblelondon.bsky.social at the @ukstoptrump.bsky.social London protest this week.

Being around so many creative people and their positive energy really does make me braver and more hopeful.

The absolute utter cheek of someone having an Irish tricolour at an anti immigration rally in London. Honestly they must be illiterate because they’ve obviously never been in the same room as a history book never mind read it.

Yesterday, the largest far-right protest in UK history marched through London, led by racist Tommy Robinson.

Today, we say: They don’t speak for us β€” and they won’t have the last word.

This Wednesday we come together against Trump and for a better future. Do everything to be there.
