Despite numerous complaints about racist, Islamophobic, and other discriminatory content, the platform has failed to take adequate action. Furthermore, recent changes to the way 'likes' are amplified have only served to exacerbate the spread of hate speech.

Along with 80 anti-racist and migrant rights organisations, we've written to @Keir_Starmer asking for Parliament to be recalled to address the scale of this crisis. The new govt must foster zero tolerance for far-right, racist and anti-migrant narratives.

Our thoughts are with the families and community of Southport who are grieving the tragic loss of three young girls: Elsie Dot Stancombe, Bebe King and Alice Dasilva Aguiar. We’re sickened by these despicable acts of violence against children and their teacher.
