After 73 days, Heba, Kamran and Lewie have ended their hunger strikes.
For weeks, tens of thousands of us have been begging Lammy to meet with their lawyers. They had ample time to respond, but did not listen. The government still refuses to engage.

Five years ago today, Donald Trump urged his supporters to attack Congress and the Capitol over a proven lie. More than 140 police officers were injured.
Trump then pardoned the attackers.
He betrayed his oath and his country, and we won't ever forget it.
