Violent racist rioters who tried to burn refugees alive get shorter jail sentences (2-3 years) than peaceful @JustStop_ Oil protesters (4-5 years)
That's the real 'two-tier injustice' in UK today. SHAME!

Birmingham: Strong and United turn out against the rise of fascism & racism in the centre of Birmingham. The fascist will not be allowed to spread their hatred in our City.

If the Tories claim that you must have earnings of £38,000 to live sufficiently within the UK as an immigrant, why do they expect 70% of Brits in the UK earning less to be able to do so? – at South West, England

I'm the sole audience member for these guys who are playing old miners' songs and because I'm the only one they've made me a cup of tea 😌

POV: You’re a station I’m trying to use and I need to buy the 50% wheelchair discount, but I can’t because the ticket office is closed and TVMs don’t sell them.
Object to the closures now: transportforall.org.uk/campa…

I am a graphic designer. The twitter bird logo/brand presented a kind, welcoming, open, light-hearted community. I think this new logo/brand is dark & sinister, overtly masculine, unwelcoming and threatening, not to mention rather self-obsessed.

My heart goes out to the parents talking on radio 4 about private school fees going up and having to consider the local school. Really moving report. (You can't buy self awareness)

4.2 million reasons I'm campaigning for the commencement of the #SocioEconomicDuty in England, to match Scotland & Wales, which is also the focus of my MRes Masters thesis #research at @DerbyUni @DerbyUniPGR + work with @equalitytrust
Did you know there were 4.2 million children living in poverty in the UK in 2021-22? That's 29 per cent of children, or 9 in a classroom of 30 🧑🏫
We need a human rights-based response to poverty and the cost-of-living crisis

1. Taxpayers is an irrelevant Thatcherite term, taxes don't pay for anything, the govt prints what it needs. Taxation is a control on inflation.
2. What prompted such a eugenicist question? What sort of question is this? Why not just ask, should the country bother with you if you get sick or happen to be disabled?
3. No wonder I gave up watching after Matthew Wright left if this is the level of questioning you've stooped to. Its sick and twisted and the most vulnerable have been demonised enough. You should apologise for even positing this.
Signed a disgusted unpaid carer for two disabled people.
Absolutely shameful..I really don't think it's an exaggeration to say this is a war against disabled people. We could do so much better as a country to enable rather than disable people with this hateful rhetoric
Ah the normative family? Name me one "normal" family and I'll raise you a whole load of issues. How quaint..
OOh this looks fab.. I look forward to visiting it.
A sculpture titled 'Black British History is British History' was unveiled yesterday in Winson Green #Birmingham, celebrating 2,000 years of Black heritage in Britain.
Created by sculptor Luke Perry and emerging artist Canaan Brown, the artwork was commissioned by @LegacyWM1.
