Incredibly tough day for my friends at Asian Network News. The BBC are axing their entire team. A group of brilliant journalists who tell the stories of British Asians & give them a voice on matters that affect them. Nowhere in the BBC does that. Devastated doesn’t cover it.

Following the riots, the government should be standing up — unequivocally — to the far right.
Shamefully, they are taking lessons from them instead.
Our common humanity offers a different lesson: refugees who have fled violence should be treated with compassion & respect.

Ecstatic that Marieha was found not guilty but I left the court fuming 😡 To quote Malcolm the #coconuttrial was a 'circus, with clowns and all', Exhibit A for the #PsychosisOfWhiteness We have to keep the pressure up and resist the policing of our thought

"I'm mad ... this (coconut placard) trial was a circus, clowns and all, it never should have happened!"
Leading black professor Kehinde Andrews slams the Marieha Hussain coconut trail as a waste of resources and explains how the "struggling" prosecution couldn't find experts to back their stance after Andrews and others rejected their approaches.
