Extraordinary numbers in Telegraph piece today (the conclusions of which I find daft, but doesn’t change this). We are going to leave an incredibly dysfunctional country to our children & grandchildren. Nation-states generally don’t survive things going *this* badly wrong.

What is happening to Birmingham, which should be one of Europe's great cities, is criminal. Massive cuts, 21% council tax rise, 600 job losses, over Β£1B of assets to be sold. This is Europe's youngest city - it's meant to offer a glimpse of the future! https://t.co/c0JYciDtnl

Well, the news is out. And it's absolutely crushing for arts and culture in Birmingham. Some of Birmingham's best loved arts and cultural attractions face cuts to their grant funding from the city council. 🧡

Tragedy about #titanicsub. Worth to point out to #news outlets however that hundreds of #refugees died at see in the Mediterranean this week while trying to reach a humane life. Inequality persists even at death.

What a beautiful and wholesome video our participant and filmmaker @trueamir_ has made of our 'soil, to clay to home' project with a group of asylum seekers and refugees. You've managed to capture this project so well. @weareamal @DigbethGarden @s_moffa @inTheWarehouse

Compassion and empathy, surprisingly different things. To a more compassionate world. https://t.co/mxp3AlJuVn via @BBC_Reel

slavery was legal. so was holocaust, chemical castration of homosexuals, burning of witches or any number of horrors. just because something is β€œlegal” it does not make it right. we are duty bound to fight against rwanda plan, and hostile environment, with everything we have.

BREAKING: High Court rules against our #StopRwanda legal challenge (although individual claimants will not be deported) This is only the first court judgement. We remain steadfast in our opposition to the policy & in our determination to ensure that no human is forcibly deported

BREAKING NEWSπŸ“’ The High Court has ruled today that the Home Secretary is acting unlawfully by failing in her duty to provide for the essential living needs of asylum seekers. The ruling confirms the Home Secretary is in breach of the law and required to increase weekly support.
