Kay Melhuish had to wait 10 days in prison before she was given clean underwear. After one call to a friend she was made to wait 16 days for another. Eastwood Park prison knew when Kay arrived that she was suicidal and made “gross failings” in her care. https://t.co/C25dzZRBAR

When you compare the trial of Blake who shot and killed unarmed Kaba with the trial of the Manchester 10 – a group of Black boys given 131 years collectively over a murder which did not even happen – you see a system that does not serve Black communities. https://t.co/LFhJOwF35T

This is a war crime. We must not continue arming the monstrous government that performed this atrocity. @Keir_Starmer what sort of human rights lawyer are you that looks at this & merely shrugs? @DavidLammy how can you live with yourself when you know what you know but do

Thanks PE and all who work there for you unstinting support over many years to expose injustices such as that suffered by Oliver Campbell - its vital for media involvement with these cases but sadly the main stream are only interested when the case concludes with happy ending

How many more stories of barbarity like this are needed to stop the sale of arms to the Israeli killer government? Selling arms to these war criminals effectively sanctions their acts of genocide.
Newborn twins in Gaza were killed with their mother and grandmother as their father went to collect birth certificates earlier today. According to local media, the family had been displaced from northern Gaza and had sheltered further south. https://t.co/8VXCbSd5II

It’s quite simple. These are a small number of people that have suffered a huge injustice. The government must repay them the compensation that was deducted and move on.
Victims of historical miscarriages of justice have been told they won't be refunded money taken from their compensation to cover board and lodging in prison, #R4Today has learned. Matt Foot from legal charity Appeal says it is 'immoral' that they face such deductions.
