‘It’s encouraging Gov recognises transnational repression as a human rights issue, but its response fails to realise the breadth & seriousness of problem. We need a dedicated hotline and clear, time-bound plan for working with the community’- Sara Rydkvist

Tommy Robinson is a thug who represents the very worst of Britain. His presence undermines those genuinely working to tackle Islamist extremism and foster community cohesion. Minister Chikli has proven himself to be a Diaspora Minister in name only. In our darkest hour, he has ignored the views of the vast majority of British Jews, who utterly and consistently reject Robinson and everything he stands for.

In the wake of the horrific Manchester terrorist attack, Israel and the Jewish people stand firmly with our allies in the United Kingdom.
On behalf of the State of Israel, I am proud to host British patriot @TRobinsonNewEra who will visit Israel in mid-October.
Tommy is a courageous leader on the front line against radical Islam.
At a time when Jews across Europe face rising antisemitism, it is vital to strengthen bonds with allies who refuse to be silent.
He has proven himself a true friend of Israel and the Jewish people, unafraid to speak the truth and confront hate.
Israel will always stand with the Jewish community and our allies worldwide. Together with friends like Tommy Robinson, we will build stronger bridges of solidarity, fight terror, and defend Western civilization and our shared values.

New @moreincommon research out today for the Common Ground Justice Project, exploring public attitudes on criminal justice reform - suggesting more nuance than our binary ‘tough’ vs ‘soft’ debate

Gauke sentencing review today comes as 2 in 3 Brits say they want major changes to the criminal justice system. So do proposed reforms address concerns or deepen the public's loss of faith? Explored in new More in Common research ⬇️

NEW: Computer Says No lays out how broken systems - from GP bookings to council websites - is quietly fuelling frustration and reshaping politics.
Most people get that the govt got a duff hand with cost of living and Trump.
But this - gov can and should fix.

Enjoyed #Alterations at @NationalTheatre this evening - a human story told with warmth & humour, that speaks of the post-Windrush migrant experience (without lecturing the audience). Hope members of the @100Windrush network enjoy too

New @BritishFuture research finds 61% of the public would prefer current levels of international student migration to stay the same or increase. Only 27% would reduce or stop student migration, which makes up around 40% of total UK immigration [Thread]

Great to be back in my hometown for the launch of ‘unravelling history’ at Leamington Art Gallery.
Annabel Rainbow’s quilted portraits of local Windrush Generation elders - who were there too- help bring these stories to a wider audience. Do go, it’s free!
