Dramatic rise in water-related violence recorded since 2022 Experts say climate crisis, corruption and lack or misuse of infrastructure among factors driving water conflicts

As we witness the horror of attacks on desalination plants, we need to be aware, on a warming planet, conflict over water, using water as a weapon of war, & targeting people seeking water is on the rise

- in the past 4 years, it's nearly doubled:

40 far right with union flags surrounded by cops on every side boxes into a small huddle

Bristol Patriots having a shit day out today. All 40 of them, totally boxed in by hundreds of antifascists.

Police turned them around and marched them back the way they came.

Despite using batons and horses against antifascists, people held their ground and the fascists did not pass.

again and again... there is NO SUCH THING, no such thing, NO SUCH THING as automation as presented by AI companies!

Children's Toys Are Shipping With Adult AI Inside Them Despite banning minors from using their chatbots, AI companies are happy to let their models be used in children's toys.

New report “suggests that leading AI companies are doing little to police how developers who pay for access to their AI models are using them. One consequence, the group warns, is that AI toymakers can ship products to children that are powered by AI models that are only intended for adults.”

"They will travel, and they will arrive, stripped of their caveats, in classrooms and clinical assessments and local authority decision-making, as permission to dismiss what autistic people say about their own experience - even more than there already is."

In a paper, published today in the British Journal of Psychiatry, a group of experts say there is no robust evidence that ADHD is over-diagnosed in the UK.

Westminster Meeting House raided by Metropolitan Police again. Statement: “For Quakers, faith and action are inseparable. Peaceful protest, prayer and nonviolent action are integral parts of many Quakers' religious life. Whilst we take the planning of criminal acts very seriously, we believe that this incident is a deliberate targeting of committed young people who want to make our country a more equitable place. This raid is part of a systematic stifling of dissent. That this is the second time in a year that the police have raided our meeting house dramatically illuminates the broader trend in the UK of cracking down on those who disagree with the government. The right to protest is fundamental to our democracy. It's a key part of how people make their voices heard between elections.” – Oliver Robertson, Head of Witness and Worship Quakers in Britain, 5 March 2026

Yesterday evening, for the second time in a year, the Met Police raided Westminster Quaker Meeting House and arrested a number of young nonviolent activists.

Serial NHS greasy-poll climber, private sector cartel lobbyist, Mandleson associate, bagman for fascist surveillance firm Palantir, *and* chair of Citizens Advice ?

Meta sued over AI smart glasses' privacy concerns, after workers reviewed nudity, sex, and other footage | TechCrunch Lawyers say Meta's marketing materials promised privacy and user control over sharing footage. But an investigation found that subcontractors are reviewing footage from customers' glasses.

That escalated quickly.

TL;DR Labour's policies:
🚨Increase use of irregular routes
🚨Increase human trafficking
🚨Increase number of people forced to be undocumented
🚨Force people into deprivation
🚨Leave, particularly women and children, at risk
🚨Cost more than current policies
🚨Violate international law

Opinion Restoring order at the border speaks to Labour values. Without that, we won't be able to do anything else at all Shabana Mahmood Our approach, unlike that of the Greens and Reform, is in step with the British people. They don't want extremes - they want a system that is managed and fair Shabana Mahmood is the UK home secretary

This is a hot mess of outright lies and misinformation from the Home Secretary, designed to try and persuade people that a government which is implementing some of the most hostile anti-immigration/asylum policies, in practice, for decades is progressive. 1/

Mothers campaign group to leave Newham flats Members of a women's group occupying flats in a council estate near east London's Olympic Park are told by a court to leave the premises.

"Sir" Robin Wales is the guy who tried to force a bunch of single mothers living in temporary accommodation to move miles away from Newham - the Focus E15 campaign

They then occupied social housing that had been left empty for years on his watch www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-engl...

Is it that these Very Important Men have so little curiosity in learning, creativity or human connection, that trying to destroy all of these things in other people makes them feel good ?

Tick tock to shabana mahmood announcing her defecation to Reform

Yeah, I spelled that right

Someone told tech companies the phrase “mass surveillance” is radioactive, so now they spend a bunch of time trying to pretend they are actually doing something different.

Big watching.
Large looking.

I'd call these people ghouls and jackals, but honestly ghouls and jackals gafe more reverence and respect. Jfc

I was born in an Iranian prison. My parents were held in their jails. My uncles lie in their mass graves. Nothing you can tell me about the crimes of the Iranian regime that I haven't lived in blood and bone. That doesn't mean I want my people bombed, maimed, killed, their homes in ruins. If your vision of liberation comes only through the destruction of innocent lives, then it's not freedom you're after. Sahar Delijani, Iranian author

I am pro Iranian people. I stand with them against their own government’s repression AND against the imperial violence in the form of bombs dropped from the sky from Israel & the US who have already killed hundreds.

I support neither imperialism or dictatorship.

Sahar Delijani said it best:

Black and white photo of Marjane Satrapi with the quote: "The world is not divided between East and West. You are American. I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same."

Once again.
