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.

I have never heard of any allegations about him, if he's a safeguarding concern I'd like to let GPEW know about this, I don't want sex pests in my party and it would be good to know what the allegations are to facilitate this. I'm sorry if you were involved in this case and I've caused you upset.

Guardian headline that says "Gen Z males twice as likely as baby boomers to believe wives should obey husbands: global survey shows young men and boys hold more traditional views about gender roles than older generations"
If younger people believe them more than older people shouldn't we stop calling these views "traditional"? Maybe something like "discriminatory", "patriarchal", or "misogynistic" instead?
Yay welcome to bluesky and to the new Green Cllr 🤩

I don't know how anyone is staying in the Labour party I really don't.
It's an old BNP policy from their 2010 manifesto. Literally... except they are offering less money. See my TL earlier.

Hmmm, resigned from government but not as an MP... which is a shame as our Greens in the NW are a tight by election machine at the minute! www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
As Nigel Farage is now so concerned about the influence of "foreign-born voters" can he finally explain why a Kazakhstan-born billionaire appears to be bankrolling his own political party?
When the Prime Minister spreads lies about people - there are consequences.
He's made some outrageous smears. It's debasing our politics.

Image shows Churchill Square in Brighton on a sunny day. A police live Facial Recognition van is parked and multiple police officers can be seen stood in front of it.
If you are visiting glorious Brighton on this sunny day (as you definitely should), please be aware that at Churchill Square this van is live scanning everyone’s faces and making the city look more like a police state than the gorgeous day out it is!
Many years before I got involved in politics, I went speed dating with politicians on Newsnight.
