Freedom of assembly is a core pillar of any democracy.

We stand with Mayor Karácsony, Pécs Pride organiser Géza Buzás-Hábel, and everyone now facing criminal charges despite having committed no crime.

We will continue to defend freedom against oppression.

Make coffee fair for people and the planet Coffee farmers work in brutal conditions. And it’s certified “ethical”? Let’s expose the coffee scam! 👉Add your name to demand truly fair coffee.

Greenwashing, modern bane. There is growing evidence that famous 'ethical' and 'fair trade' labels turn a blind eye to child labour and slave labour in coffee farms! Naming and shaming those labels is a must so that they quickly stop this fraudulent practice! action.wemove.eu/sign/2025-07...

Trump Shifts Deportation Focus, Pausing Raids on Farms, Hotels and Eateries

Rather than 'criminals', ICE raids focused on hard-working irregular migrants, including hotel workers. This may stop, following complaints from corporations, but note the hypocrisy of an exploitative system that keeps hotel workers in limbo! www.nytimes.com/2025/06/13/u...
