Of course. Starmer, what do you expect?
Trans folk are human, will that do it? Even better, there cannot be a just society without transrights. How about you, are you pro workers rights, anti-racist and anti-imperialist?
It's time for a new kind of political party - one that belongs to you.

About time & very welcomed, we need a new socialist party! Time to provie a real working class alternative to Reform. As for the Greens, they're a mixed bunch, not all leftists, remember Brighton council?
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Disability rights groups reject government concessions on disability cuts The document announces that a coalition of disabled people and disability rights groups has rejected the government’s alleged concessions related to Universal Credit and Personal Independence Payment Bill. Groups quoted include: • Disabled People Against Cuts • Mad Youth Organise • Disability Rights UK • National Survivor User Network • Crips Against Cuts Quotation from the groups: “Disabled people and disability rights groups totally reject the performative politics being enacted by the Government, in response to being challenged by a growing MP rebellion and a tidal wave of anger from the public. We will not sell out generations of disabled people past and future by accepting this sham of alleged concessions on welfare spending so that they can save face. The reforms are ill thought out, and MPs still do not have a full understanding of their implications and impact. We reject the concessions, and demand a pause until all information is published and scrutinised both by disabled people’s organisations and MPs.” ENDS CONTACT: mail@dpac.uk.net
From DPAC. Please share far and wide. These concessions are meaningless. They will still heavily negatively impact current claimants during renewal, as well as new claimants. Disabled ppl *will* die because of this, just like they’ve died when they’ve attacked disability benefits before.
Rich, private schooled, has been disabled for less than 2 years and his 'work' is as a life peer - a job so easy you don't even have to do it.
Do you have the link to sign the letter please?
Can't seem to find the words "racism" or "sectarianism"? Can't condemn the UDA? This is a weak response and let's down the real victims here, there is no legitamacy to these far right riots and your response feeds into mainstreaming the idea that forced migrants and migrants are the issue. Shame.
A UDA gang that protects sex offenders is involved in Ballymena riots… this violence is just sheer racism

As always, Allison nails it!
What is happening in Ballymena is not a protest about women's safety. It is vile, blatant, targeted racism and nothing else.
Did I miss the rioting for these women??
BBC News - A picture of violence: The 25 women killed in four years
www.bbc.com/news/article...
Speaking on BBC Newsline, Jim Allister said his primary thoughts were with all who suffered in the violence but also the 14-year-girl who was the alleged victim of the sexual assault, and for whom "thousands gathered last night to show empathy". "My fear was, and it turned out to be true, that that vital demonstration of opposition to violence against women would be overwhelmed by a resort to violence by those who had other ideas and other agendas, and sadly that's what happened." He added that the underlying tensions had been "there for a long time in this particular part of Ballymena" because there was "an oversubscription of migrants who had been placed there", causing "tensions to rise to the surface".
A reminder that Jim Allister took a paedophile and woman beater back into his party.
He'a an egotistical opportunist who gives not one fuck about women and children.
A crowd stands on a city street facing a large fire and thick smoke, with the Green Party logo above bold white text reading “SELECTIVE OUTRAGE IN BALLYMENA.” Overlaid in yellow, the text asks: “Why does violent, racist outrage erupt only when the accused are outsiders, while crimes by locals – often family or friends – are met with silence and inaction?” The image is branded as published and promoted by the Green Party NI.
When an alleged assault by non-locals hits the news, Ballymena explodes - protests, violence, chaos. But when local men face charges for domestic violence, rape, or child abuse, where’s the outrage? Where are the crowds demanding justice for victims?
No riots. No burning houses. No headlines.

Sending love to all those celebrating Eid today, thinking of those celebrating while under occupation and blockade. "Eid Mubarak" 🇵🇸
Correction: "a charity targeted"
Very suprised to see @thirdsector.co.uk using #Mermaids, an charity targeted by vehemently transphobic TERFs, as part of their "when charities go wrong podcast" despite the overall findings by the regulator & the wide pool of inquiries to choose from. Be nice to know why they've piled on?
Coming to festival near you; KKR building illegal settlements and buying artistic and cultural events across Europe & the US.
Bought a Saturday #Guardian for the crossword, and cross words is all I have for this rag, liberal sprinkling of zio bias all the way through from a hummus review to the article on Gary Linekar. Remembered why I stopped buying it #wronsideofhistory #genocideapologists
