Angela #Rayner: Hands off our allotments
We call on you to stop any further #sell-offs of our precious #allotments and to reverse any sales that can be reversed.
Listen to local people.
Once allotments have been sold off, they are lost forever.

The Act is already impacting freedom of expression in the UK
You can help us gather evidence of how content is being #censored through our Blocked tool. We’ll compile these examples for a future report on how the Online Safety Act is chilling #FreeSpeech and access to information in the UK.

#DemocracyNow brengt een indrukwekkend interview met Anthony Aguilar, een afgezwaaide Amerikaanse luitenant-kolonel die van mei tot eind juni als 'subcontractor' werkte voor de Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), en die nu als klokkenluider de publiciteit zoekt om breed bekend te maken dat Amerikaanse huurlingen en het Israëlische leger zich systematisch schuldig maken aan oorlogsmisdaden bij de hulpdistributiepunten van GHF.

You wrote: "For more than half a year now, I’ve waited for a single leader in the field of trust and safety to stand up and say something about this retrenchment. To quit their job, to write an op-ed, to call a reporter and talk on the record. To say: this work was important — it saved lives — and it’s wrong that my company isn’t doing it anymore. "
Ummm... You haven't looked very well, then? I have said it on the record in the #Guardian, on #DemocracyNow, on the #BBC and even Australian TV channels seem to be able to find me well enough.
And, Trustcon is the worst place in the universe to find anyone who isn't just a corporate bootlicker.

Interview with Michael Mann on the ongoing climate breakdown
#UK public’s trust in our #politics has collapsed
Only 1 in 10 people now trust the government to put the country first.
This is a dangerous territory to be in and without serious #reforms we risk people losing faith in #democracy altogether.
Introducing a fairer, more #ProportionalVoting system would start the process of restoring trust and confidence in our political system.
