Solidarity Brenda, Hackney Council needs to reinstate her original photo

Our statement on the UK government’s demand that all content on all devices sold or used in the country be scanned, on the presumption of nudity, using a dystopian combination of age verification and content scanning. This proposal will not safeguard children. It endangers us all. signal.org/blog/pdfs/2026-06…

New: Nuffield-funded research paper on England’s school accountability system appears riddled with errors educationuncovered.co.uk/new… Document produced by UCL’s EPPI Centre and the Centre for Education Systems appears a case study in the dangers of over-reliance on AI in research.

Over 21,000 people have signed our petition calling on the government to investigate the activities of UK nationals who have served for Israel amid the Gaza genocide. Add your name here: 👉 declassifieduk.org/sign

Shut the whole HELL UP, you disgusting war criminal. You told Peter Mandelson you knew there was targeted violence against Palestinian women and children by 'israel'. But you knowingly chose loyalty to Labour Friends of 'israel'. Instead of being a normal human being, you hunted NHS medics who opposed genocide and supremacy — including attacking me personally. You threatened the medical regulator AND tribunal (@gmcuk, @the_mpts) to suspend me after I won my tribunal. You pushed for the IHRA definition to silence British healthcare workers. You significantly deepened the privatisation of the NHS. You described the International Court of Justice (ICJ) genocide case against 'israel' as a 'DISTRACTION'. The @guardian is despicable for trying to sanitise your complicity. You do NOT get to pretend to be horrified by the genocide you participated in. May you receive a punishment from God in this life and the next. May He trap you in hell with your 'israeli' funders, you zionist traitor to Britain and humanity.

Happy Pride Month 🌈❤️
