25 November is the international day for the elimination of violence against women. This year, like every year for the past few, we’ll be posting the UK women killed by men since #IDEVAW last year. Starting at 8.30am and commemorating one woman every 5 mins.

"... it goes after those of us who look like we could be immigrants. We have talked a lot about illegal immigration sitting at the heart of this debate, but what we are not talking about so much is race" Shabana Mahmood condemning the hostile environment back in 2018

One member, one vote is a simple tenet of democracy. The general secretary and the central executive committee, along with every other major role, must be elected by a ballot of all members. Your Party can still be an open, democratic organisation. But only if we organise.

What really happened 🙄 On October 31, 2025, heavy rain triggered a massive landslide on the Transversal del Carare highway between Vélez and Landázuri. The collapse destroyed about 3 km of road, cut off 25 rural communities, and forced the evacuation of at least 27 families,
Santander, Colombia. No one knows how this happened, there were no reports of seismic activity. Any underground city? The ground simply collapsed. What's happening?

I spent today on the picket lines as a resident doctor in England. We’ve reached a point where NHS doctors who want to care for patients - who’ve undertaken years of training - are being left without jobs. Not because the NHS has enough doctors but because the Government has

This is the US plan to colonize Gaza: Gaza will be divided into a “green zone”, under Israeli/Western military control, with almost no Palestinians. This will be rebuilt. Nearly all Palestinians are trapped in the “red zone”. This will be left in ruins. https://t.co/F6yHDDy1Y0

Rupert Lowe, a sitting MP, is lying. He says the NHS is employing international workers at the expense of local workers. It is untrue. There are 150,000 NHS vacancies. We rely on international labour and local labour. The truth is, there isn't enough staff. So why are

How is it that Israel got all the bodies identified but Palestinians are left with bodies they can’t even name? Is anyone in the media addressing this horrific reality or holding the state barbaric accountable?
Fifteen unidentified Palestinian bodies were laid to rest today in a mass grave south of Deir al Balah, after it became impossible to determine their identities due to the condition of the remains.

Many terminally-ill people would feel “duress” and “pressure” to choose an assisted suicide if it is legalised, because of the lack of funding for the NHS, palliative care and social care services, a disabled activist has told MPs and peers. https://t.co/ROgQfdPUTp

@KirstieMAllsopp @MichaelRosenYes @Nutcracker2222 @taggartcats All doctors in private hospitals have been trained, certified by the NHS. While private hospitals benefit from the public provision of education & training for medics of all kinds (physio’s, etc.) the profit is all theirs & the cost of training is not reimbursed to NHS.

101 months since we lost our 72 The Tower is coming down, but still no justice. Government continues to drag its feet on Inquiry recommendations & there’s no progress on a National Oversight Mechanism to ensure lessons are learned. We won't stop until we get justice & change.

Displaced Palestinians living in makeshift camps in Gaza are now facing heavy rainfall. Living conditions continue to worsen with tents flooding and the weather getting colder.

Leaving aside the discussion as to whether I should or should not have a Freedom Pass, I'm glad to say that Kirstie Allsopp's tweet has had 1.8 million views. As Kirstie mentioned Michael Rosen Day in it, I have to thank Kirstie for that.

Israel had blocked the caravans and temporary shelters Gazans need to survive the winter from entering. It destroyed most shelters there too. It’s hoping the winter will finish what the IDF started.
This is the situation in the displacement tents in Gaza as winter begins and the rain starts to fall.

We drowned in blood for more than two years, and no one moved a finger. Do you think they’ll react if we drown in rainwater? A filthy world.
