Please consider signing this: Do not leave the ECHR The gov't is considering leaving the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). This decision could place people's rights under serious threat. We want the UK to remain part of the ECHR.

Not so much "Let them eat cake" as "Let them burn, let them asphyxiate, let them die of mould, let them freeze to death, let them fall down the stairs, let them go through the floor, let them fall out of a window...". Anything dangerous will do.
This is awful. Embedding & legislating for systemic racism in minimum housing standards regulation. And who are the government contractors for housing the record number of people waiting for an asylum decision? Serco, Mears & Ready Homes - making a fortune thanks to the Tories.

📍Today we showed up outside Capita's AGM in London, with campaign partners @BIDdetention and @privacyint. We greeted shareholders with info on Capita's involvement in the Home Office's brutal GPS tracking scheme. Join us in calling for #DignityNotData: https://t.co/iokBXoKWRI

And then a small boy called out, "But the King is wearing no clothes!" He was immediately arrested by the Metropolitan police, and was prosecuted for disrupting the coronation celebrations. And that, children is how civil rights became a fairytale.

@ProfTomkins So it's ok to protest as long as you do it a few hundred miles from where the event you are protesting about is taking place?

You could carry absolutely anything down that aisle and Huw Edwards would be like ‘here comes the ceremonial grapefruit, last carried by the Duke of Battersea in the admiralty wars of 1752’

I have written to my MP to tell him that @BridgeeCee is a Litmus test. Even on the Kent coast, where one might expect gammony rage against asylum-seekers to be at its foamiest, British people don't hate them as much as the government wishes it did. Go Bridget! 💪🏼
