Justice for Stephen is about all of us, every one of us, in society having justice. There are still too many young people who do not have a sense of hope, who just don't get the chance to live their dreams. I want all our children and young people to feel inspired, be confident and have hope in their own future. We are building hope but there is more to do. -Baroness Lawrence, speaking at 20th Anniversary Memorial in 2013 Screen capture from the Stephen Lawrence Day Foundation website, linked to in the post.

Sheffield Green Party recognises that systemic racism is still prevalent and we must watch, guard & work to eradicate it. Our communities continue to experience aggression in many forms. We stand with them and against racism as we remember Stephen Lawrence today.

Farage urged to act against candidates with racist, misogynistic and homophobic views Exclusive: Despite the pledge to employ the best vetting system in British politics, some Reform UK candidates have been condemned for their ‘grotesque views’ posted online

The true face of Reform, is not Farage, the clubbable braying donkey - it’s the homophobes, racists and misogynists standing as its candidates in the coming local elections.

Robbins says that when he arrived in post, a due diligence report had been undertaken by the Cabinet Office, and the PM had announced the appointment - and [Mandelson] was already being given higher classification briefings

Robbins says there was generally dismissive attitude towards his clearance.

Almost everything we argue about is a substitute for the thing we should be arguing about: the immense wealth & power of an oligarchic class, which captures governments, ruins lives and wrecks the living planet.
This class redirects our rage at scapegoats. To resist its lies is to resist its power.
