Sanctioned Russian oligarch Mikhail Fridman – whose UK assets are frozen and who’s barred from doing business in the UK – is suing the UK.
How? Through secret corporate courts that let corporations & the super-rich bully governments.

New UK oil & gas fields like Rosebank won't deliver energy security.
If approved, they’ll undermine the UK’s climate leadership – and risk driving further fossil fuel expansion globally.
We need clean, affordable energy – not more fossil fuels.

In Lebanon, Iran, Syria – and the occupied Palestinian territory – it’s ordinary people who pay the price.
The US and Israel must permanently end the war in Iran and attacks across the region – and be held to account for the death, displacement & destruction they are inflicting.
srael has killed over 1,400 Lebanese people, including 53 medical workers, forced five hospitals to close and carried out forced displacement.
The forced displacement and intentional targeting of civilians and civilian infrastructure are war crimes.
The US and Iran have announced a temporary ceasefire – but Israel says it doesn’t include Lebanon.
Israel is extending its occupation into Lebanon – repeating what it did in Gaza – displacing over a million people, blowing up bridges and stealing land. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...
US President Donald Trump has repeatedly called the climate crisis a hoax, while Argentina’s President Milei has downplayed its reality.
At a time when world leaders are spreading misinformation – what exactly are the facts about our rapidly heating world?

Israel and the US are bombarding Iran – killing at least 1,900 Iranians so far, and injuring over 24,000.
Israel’s new death penalty law is apartheid in action: the same crime, but a different punishment based on your race.
But that isn’t all Israel is doing. Here’s what you’ve missed. ⬇️🧵
A decision on whether to approve the Rosebank oil field is due soon – and pressure is mounting in UK parliament.
Rosebank won’t cut bills or deliver energy security. It will only worsen climate breakdown.

NEXT must act now to:
💷Pay a real living wage in the UK
🛑Stop rights violations in its supply chain
👗Place clothing orders from unionised factories where workers can collectively bargain for better wages and conditions
Allegations of workers’ rights violations in NEXT’s associated factories trail across Asia – in Pakistan, NEXT has subjected garment workers to extreme heat without protection, leaving many chronically ill.
NEXT’s CEO, Lord Simon Wolfson, makes more than 219 times what a UK retail assistant makes annually, and around 4449 times as much as a garment worker in Sri Lanka.
NEXT's profits are up 14.5% this year to £1.1 billion – while workers in its supply chain struggle to make ends meet as the cost-of-living rises everywhere.
This is a ‘success’ story only for NEXT’s CEOs and shareholders – who took home £839 million in last year. 🧵
Shell and other fossil-fuel polluters have made billions from fuelling climate and ecosystem collapse.
Now, they need to pay to fix it:

Year on year, the right to protest has been eroded – with new laws and expanded police powers used disproportionately in London.
This morning, we backed @netpol.org's call to hold the Met police accountable.
The right to protest must be protected – in the UK & globally.
We're hiring!
We're looking for an energetic early career campaigner with a passion for justice. Expertise in trade is desirable but not required.
