Thousands have queued in the rain for hours to lobby their MPs to vote for a #CeasefireNOW in Gaza

Why cutting emissions is not enough without a system change, and why global injustices are a big part of the story we need to change. Great new resource and graphics. #ClimateJustice

In November, five fab folks from the Slotervaart neighbourhood in Amsterdam Nieuw-West came to Birmingham for @CIVIC_SQUARE’s #neighbourhoodportrait launch.
