Post from Salma Yaqoob: "Almost feel sorry for the haters who are trying to spin Muslims voting for a woman in a party led by a gay Jewish man is evidence of Islamic sectarianism. In fact it's evidence of genuince tolerance, rejection of superficial identity politics and ability to prioritise tackling common concerns of costs of living, protecting public services and rejecting warmongering. And the promotion of mutual respect and individual freedoms. The coming together of people is terrifying for the ruling elites."

Fashion designer Pam Hogg: 'Just don't call me normal' Her catsuits are worn by Rihanna and Kylie, while her shows feature blood, needles and nudity. We meet Britainโ€™s most provocative designer

The news about Pam Hogg doesnโ€™t feel quite real. Quite brilliant, possibly the most alive person Iโ€™ve ever met. She did a marvellous interview with @timjonze.bsky.social here for a show we had up here with DuoVision in the Gallery. RIP you bloody legend www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

Some good news.

London is meeting legal limits for toxic NO2 pollution for the first time โ€“ almost 200 years earlier than predicted โ€“ following the Mayorโ€™s "world leading air pollution policies," City Hall announces.

The Ultra Low Emissions Zone - and similar policies - really do work.

Charlie Kirk in his own words: โ€˜prowling Blacksโ€™ and โ€˜the great replacement strategyโ€™ The far-right commentator didnโ€™t pull his punches when discussing his bigoted views on current events

Good that the Guardian is calling Kirk โ€œfar rightโ€ and showings its readers his views - not โ€œcommon senseโ€, not โ€œconservativeโ€, but far right conspiracy.

Iโ€™m sure if you read the whole piece youโ€™d realise that is referring to the climate of fear that has persisted until recently. The rest of the feature talks about how it is no longer being seen as radical but necessary to speak out
