They are political prisoners of conscience. They must be released immediately.
Today is Day 50 of the Palestine prisoners’ hunger strike. This Labour government must release all remand prisoners on bail immediately. If they die, more blood will be on the hands of @DavidLammy and @Keir_Starmer.

Why is a Labour minister celebrating the mass destruction of UK jobs and the export of profits to the US. What is the upside exactly?
Another vote of confidence in our plans for self-driving vehicles from global leader @Lyft. We’re planning for self-driving cars to carry passengers for the first time from Spring, under our pilot scheme – harnessing this technology safely and responsibly to transform travel.

The TPH trade needs to send this grifter packing and not allow him to co-opt a proud, public service industry for his own twisted political ambitions.

In the least surprising development of 2025, Uber has abandoned its whole 'green' schtick as it adapts to the reality of Trump's presidency. The idea Uber was an answer to decarbonisation was always absurd, but a lot of European politicians bought it... https://t.co/G7oa1uAO42

Great news! Looks like TfL has finally turned the ship around & what a legacy for Helen Chapman to leave behind as she sets off into the wild blue yonder. But for sustainable momentum, KoL training must be publicly funded for all as a paid apprenticeship.

TfL must surely now revoke AL's license. How can AL be fit and proper for public licensing after submitting fraudulent evidence to the courts? How can TfL be sure AL hasn't submitted fraudulent docs in it's regulatory reporting? If a driver did this TfL would immediately revoke.

This man had a legit right to asylum & @dkhos could've saved him with one phone call. Trump owes him. DK & Uber donated $1 mio each to Trump. DK has been on Air Force One trips to Saudi & Qatar. Why didn't Baroness Oona King, Uber's DEI Chief do something? https://t.co/66DSaT09mt

Uber's European head office in Amsterdam is incredibly opulent. No Four Seasons type luxury is too excessive for their monied execs there. Interestingly, they have moved their data protection lawyers into their offices. We beat them once, we'll beat them again.

Peter passed “The Knowledge” at 72. Considered the hardest memory and navigation test in the world, all black cab drivers have to pass it. This year The Knowledge is 160 years old. More on @BBCLondonNews 1830 and 2230 BBC1. And yes I did test him !!

Amrit Sewgobind of @FnvPlatformwerk and I are talking to Uber drivers at Schiphol airport today. Dutch Uber drivers are incredibly angry about dynamic pay/pricing. With so many joining our legal action, we can barely keep up! https://t.co/k6LxJhBB4C
