If asylum seekers’ jewellery is fair game, why stop there — spare kidneys too? 💔 Stripping it away doesn’t save costs, it strips dignity. Stand against cruelty disguised as policy. #HumanRights

The richest 1% own $54 trillion—nearly half of all global wealth.
The top 10% control over 80%.
Meanwhile, the bottom 50% share less than 2%.
A fair wealth tax could redistribute this extreme concentration into healthcare, education & climate action. 🌍💰 #WealthTax #Inequality

Reform UK is not a grassroots movement — it is a private company bankrolled by wealthy donors, including fossil fuel interests, who stand to gain from its policies. Their agenda is clear: scrap climate commitments, cut taxes that benefit the rich, and

When people dismiss real struggles as “just perceptions,” it shifts the blame onto those suffering instead of those causing the harm. The challenges minorities face aren’t imagined — they come from laws, media, and groups that actively try to take away rights. Rights aren’t optional or something to

The ECHR isn’t perfect but, it’s independent. That’s its power. When domestic politics fail to protect your rights, you need a safeguard that doesn’t answer to politicians

Banning Maccabi Tel Aviv fans for hooliganism is a public safety call. Conflating it with antisemitism is dangerous and dishonest. We must protect public order and the integrity of anti-racism. Don’t weaponise identity to excuse bad behaviour.

Spending £400M on digital ID to tackle illegal working—just 5% of migration—while ignoring upstream fixes like a French processing centre? That’s not strategy. That’s optics. #UKPolitics #MigrationPolicy #digitalID #government

The billionaire class is the only minority destroying the UK
They and their puppet politicians, not vulnerable groups, are behind the rising costs and gutted public services. The culture wars are a smokescreen to make us fight each other instead of fighting them. The true divide is top versus bottom

The debate isn't about whether someone should be booed, but whether the public has the right to express that disapproval freely. What does it say about media transparency when crowd reactions are managed? #FreeSpeech #Transparency

Arrested for protesting against genocide. This is a terrifying attack on the right to peaceful protest. When standing against human rights abuses becomes a criminal offense, our democracy is in peril. #Palestine #FreeSpeech

The majority of the arrests were for supporting a proscribed group, police say.

The spike in small boat crossings isn't an accident. It's an inevitable consequence of Brexit. Before Brexit, the UK had a clear legal pathway, the Dublin Regulation used to send asylum seekers back to the first safe country they reached. When we left the EU, that pathway disappeared.

Over 21 people arrive legally for every one person entering the UK through an irregular route.
The vast majority of people arriving in the UK are legal migrants with visas for work, study, or family. The focus by the right wing on irregular crossings masks the reality.

The same politicians who failed on immigration are now pushing extreme rhetoric to stay relevant. They're willing to scrap the ECHR and with it, threaten all our human rights. The question is, who's next? After immigration, what group will they decide doesn't deserve fundamental rights? #ECHR
August 23, 2025 at 8:00 PM
Stripping away the UK's commitment to the ECHR and replacing it with a purely domestic Bill of Rights, as proposed, exposes a fundamental vulnerability: it makes the protection of human rights entirely contingent on the political will of a parliamentary majority.

The real crises are public service cuts and the soaring cost of living,not migration! These problems were created by policies of those in power and exacerbated by the media. They're shifting blame to the vulnerable to hide their own gain and avoid accountability. We need to see past the distraction.

Anyone advocating to leave the ECHR needs their head examined. Seriously. Ditching the ECHR isn't just misguided; it's a dangerous fantasy. It's peddled by those who misunderstand, or wilfully ignore, the bedrock principles of justice and international cooperation.

The moral outrage over conflict must be consistent. It's wrong to silence opinions while ignoring the slaughter of innocents. An opinion doesn't kill; state violence does. Demand accountability for all atrocities. #JusticeForAll #StandWithPalestine
