The United States is responsible for killing at least 175 people, many of them children, in a Tomahawk missile strike on an Iranian elementary school on the last day of February.
Donald Trump has previously suggested, without evidence, that Iran was responsible for the strike.
Missed this while I was off. A Kent county councillor (elected for Reform) has been sentenced to 12 months in prison after admitting controlling & coercive behaviour.
There's a by-election next month in his seat, and it looks like another Green/Reform/Labour fight...

"report shows the racism that is at the core of Reform UK’s politics—and its membership. What motivates the support for Farage’s organisation is anti-migrant racism. Tackling this head on is key to undermining its support"

Turns out lowering bills, protecting the NHS and rebuilding our public services is really popular.
This is just the beginning - people are seeing through the attacks and demanding something better.
And we're making hope normal again - together.

Protection should mean the chance to rebuild your life in safety. Refugees have already lost home and community. What they need next is stability.
Instead, this government is putting a countdown on their safety - deliberately keeping people in limbo.

Hilarious that the oppression and silincing of South Asian woman is being used to excuse the result, but no South Asian women from the area have actually been asked themselves 😂
Children copy what they see.
And educators across the country are seeing exactly what happens when children are exposed to the far right’s harmful narratives.
It’s sickening.

❌ You can’t fight poverty with racism.
❌ And you can’t fix a broken system by scapegoating migrants.
Blame the corporate greed at the top. We’re talking to you, Farage + Musk.
#MarchAgainstFarRight #Together
Successive interviews by Nick Robinson this morning perfectly sum up the BBC:
with Zack Polanski: sneering, aggressive, constantly interrupting.
with David Bull, Reform's Chairman: polite, nodding along, barely any interruptions.
Amazing. Will share the link when it's up so you can listen too.
The level of dirt thrown against Zack Polanski and Hannah Spencer this week from the Gutter Press and from Labour/Reform was unbelievable.
And for what crime? Just wanting to make Britain a better place to live.
But in the end it did not work. Shows there is still hope in this world
Unions enforce your employment rights.
Unions can help if you’re discriminated against or mistreated by your employer.
Reform doesn’t want you to have that help.
They don’t care how badly you’re treated at work.
They’re taking the piss out of you.
You should mind.

“It wouldn’t happen here…”
Think again. They’re working on it.
We won’t let ICE-style thugs terrorise our communities as they have done in the US.
March together with us on 28 March to say out with the far right.

I have to correct myself here — Nigel Farage’s Chagos Islands press stunt wasn’t bargain-bin at all.
It was a 5,000-mile private jet joyride to the Maldives… for a day.
Truly inspiring stuff. Nothing says “serious statesman” quite like a carbon-heavy photo op with all the depth of a puddle.
Well said...
Transport details for #Hastings & St L confirmed. 🔥 Thanks to Hastings NEU, subsidised train tickets to be part of the Hastings SUTR continent on the TOGETHER against the far right demo on Sat 28th March. www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/hastings-t...

What’s happening in the USA needs to be a wake-up call. If we don’t act now, this is exactly the future we’re slipping into.
We see time and again that the only force that can stop the horror of authoritarianism and fascism is people united in love.
We cannot let the far right win.
