Labour Is Building Farage’s State By restricting jury trials, removing protest rights and expanding surveillance, Labour is entrenching an authoritarian legal infrastructure that a far-right government will not hesitate to exploit.

@teamlabouruk.bsky.social Labour must urgently reverse repressive laws that are anti-protest and discriminatory, while Reform is leading in the polls - to stop them exploiting these laws for much more insidious ends if they come to power tribunemag.co.uk/2025/12/labo...

BREAKING: Allianz stop insuring Israel's biggest weapons company, Elbit Systems.

This 🎉WIN after intense pressure from the movement. #BoycottBloodyInsurance continues to call for orgs to boycott Allianz as they continue to insure F-35 suppliers and other deadly companies.

VICTORY: climbers' charges dropped for action exposing insurers complicit in genocide, fossil fuel destruction, and the violent border regime ✊

Two activists have had all charges dismissed by the CPS for lack of evidence after they climbed a column at the Royal Exchange

Spain has implemented an arms embargo against Israel, showing how it’s done. Every other state that does not follow suit, and which continues to supply arms to the Zionists, must be understood as not only complicit but a partner in the genocide.

Keir Starmer's aides are reportedly telling him not to go to the COP30 climate conference, because Reform would attack him for it.
Yes, they might.
And he should wear it as a badge of honour.
Standing up for humanity, for science and a habitable planet.
Where's the hazard in that?

Key oceans treaty crosses critical threshold to come into force Sixty states have ratified a global treaty to protect the oceans - it will become law in January.

I wish this initiative the best of luck

BBC Bosses Draw Up Plans to Win Over Reform Voters by Changing News and Drama Output The Director General Tim Davie and other executives discussed altering BBC “story selection” in order to secure the "trust" of supporters of Nigel Farage’s party

Oh good god. This bodes terribly. The BBC have been discussing how to win over Reform voters, as if they are a political party not a media outlet that’s meant to remain impartial. bylinetimes.com/2025/06/09/b...

A tsunami is made of many droplets - Freedom News The mismanagement of Thames Water is not the first scandal of its kind, but when our very water is at risk it is time to stop letting rich people pretend they are best left in charge ~ Rob Ray ~ Back ...

What will Labour do about Thames Water’s debt of at least £19bn?

Heap private debt on the public only to re-privatise? Or nationalise and protect our water supply in the long-run?

Wealthiest 1% Have Used Up Their Share of World’s Carbon Budget in Just 10 Days, Analysis Finds - EcoWatch The wealthiest 1% of people in the world have already exhausted their share of the global carbon budget in the first 10 days of the new year.

In just 10 days the wealthiest 1% have used up their annual carbon budget to keep within 1.5C global warming (although this is most likely locked in). The poorest 50% would use up theirs in 1,022 days - or nearly 3 years.

Palestinian Families Sue US for Sending Weapons to Israel Despite “Gross Violations” of Human Rights The U.S. “has irresponsibly embraced, ‘See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil,’” toward Israel, the lawsuit says.

A group of Palestinians in Palestine and the U.S. have filed a lawsuit against the U.S. government, accusing officials of breaking domestic law by continuing to send Israel weapons despite numerous “gross violations” of human rights in the past year in Gaza and for decades beforehand.
