My thread earlier focused on the discussion re. FWS - but I just want to draw this out really explicitly:
The press absolutely monstered Dr Beth Upton in the most appalling way – only for the Tribunal to find that Beth had done nothing wrong, but that Sandie Peggie had harassed her.

Also worth noting, the Tribunal found that Sandie Peggie had harassed Dr Beth Upton in a "hate incident".

🚨 We’re shocked and disappointed.
The UK government has pushed through HUGE cuts to Universal Credit for disabled people applying in the future.
These cuts will be devastating. They risk pushing even more disabled people to food banks.

In order to ensure the proscribing of Palestine Action today the UK Govt are lumping them in with a murder cult and a Russian group. Only 1 vote will be held. Starmer sees vandalism as the same as murder. Israel are getting a good return for all the donations made in Westminster.

If you are not concerned by the proscription of Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation because you think it doesn’t impact you, you are wrong.
This is an authoritarian abuse of power by the government & it curtails all of our civil liberties #r4today

On LBC @zoejardiniere.bsky.social lists 3 previous instances where military aircraft have been targeted by campaigners in order to prevent them being used in war crimes, and she describes the govt banning Palestine Action as terrorists as an abuse of state power.

If you read the Irish media it appears the so-called EU/UK deal is just agreements as to the areas that talks are planned to change the current arrangements. No wonder Starmer banned a lot of media from his presser. www.rte.ie/news/uk/2025...
At a glance: What has been agreed in EU-UK deal?
The UK and the EU have reached a wide-ranging agreement on issues including defence, food and passport checks.
