Tomorrow @houseoflords.parliament.uk will have the chance to vote on amendment 76 tabled by @greenjennyjones.bsky.social that would require Government to record and report on fatalities in the asylum system so no death is ignored.

People are dying in our asylum system but our Government doesn't even record their deaths.

We can't save lives if we don't care enough to hear the names of the people our hostile policies kill.

Amendment 76 to the Borders Bill will force Government to ensure we #KnowTheirNames

A BBC News article has just put a bracketed "biological men" after the words "trans women".

The speed in which the Overton Window has shifted in such a reactionary and regressive direction is fucking terrifying.

Chuffed my pre-order arrived last week!

Excited to read it @nicolakellywrites.bsky.social

What a bizarre way for BBC News to cover these figures. Immediately caveating their recognition by the UN by giving equal weight to the denials of the state responsible for the deaths themselves... that isn't balance!

A visual cue for @labouruk.bsky.social MPs they may need today...

You don't defeat fascism by appeasing it.

You defeat fascism by fighting it.

Boys toy aisle vs. Girls toy aisle at B&M, in 2025.

Spot the difference?

'Let's teach boys to be heroes and emergency service workers.'

'Let's teach girls to practice hoovering and cooking and making coffees.'

It's no accident @labouruk.bsky.social skipped the white paper and went straight to a bill. They knew experts would tell them this #AntiRefugee Bill:

❌ Won't stop small boats
✅ Will drive up deaths

Courting a vocal anti-migrant minority by continuing failed violent border policies is shameful.

Being gaslit by @skynewss.bsky.social and @telegraphnews.bsky.social about a clear cut double Nazi salute by the richest man in the world during Dry January is not the one.
January 22, 2025 at 6:13 AM
Full mask slip by @telegraphnews.bsky.social who are now literally acting as apologists for Nazism...

I have officially found the film review that has aged more terribly than any other... prove me wrong.

Reviewing Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them, Travers describes JK Rowling as "a champion of outsiders facing intolerance, segregation and demonstration." 🤔🤔🤔

Disgusted by @robertjenrickmp.bsky.social racist outburst and don't know what to do about it?

Email [email protected] because he's clearly breached the Nolan Principles and MP Code of Conduct with his dog-whistle racism, dishonesty and incitement.

This might as well read "The Home Office do not care if people live or die" so long as they refuse to establish safe routes in favour of more border violence and securitisation.

Every single Channel death is avoidable. It's a matter of political will.
