The UK government is proposing radical and punitive changes to settlement rules. This is settlement, not citizenship. The consultation is open until 12 February; please respond to it and oppose these evil proposals. Amnesty have a good guide: www.amnesty.org.uk/resources/gu...
Does anyone know of opportunities to volunteer with people in distress? I ask as someone looking to apply to train as a psychotherapist with an organisation that requires such volunteering experience
I urgently need a new job and sense of direction after a period of illness and a planned withdrawal from my PhD
Regardless of whether Reform's deportation plan "works", if they get a chance to try it - like the Tories' Rwanda policy, or Trump's deportations - it will ostentatiously torment thousands of people and further engrain racism in British politics. It must be opposed on that basis.

Has anyone written about epistolary form and 20th-21st C poetry?

Keir Starmer comes to mind: 'He doesn’t know what he dreamed last night – or ever: “I don’t dream.” Just hits the pillow at 11 and – “bang” – is out till around 5. He doesn’t have a favourite novel or poem, wasn’t scared of anything as a child.' www.theguardian.com/politics/art...
An entire news crew working for Al Jazeera was killed by Israel as they sought to bring the world firsthand reporting from #Gaza.
Among them was prominent journalist Anas Al-Sharif, who had been previously smeared and threatened by the IDF.

An open letter to M&S that people can sign
openletter.earth/an-appeal-to...
Eighty years since Hiroshima – I remember the strangely superficial terms in which the event was discussed in history classes: as a curious moral dilemma, an exercise in moral reasoning and the calculus of human life/death, quick to pass over its monstrosity
“This landscape of destruction looks otherworldly, yet it is not; it is this world, and what is happening may yet come to define one of its darkest eras.”

NUS: Stop silencing students on Palestine palestinecampaign.eaction.org.uk/NUSstopsilen...
A quick reminder of why we are here.
Thru their medical campaign, Sameer, partnering w/TechMed, will help Misk, who lost her parents and siblings in an airstrike. She is now the only survivor along w/her uncle. She needs surgery, emotional support, and nutrition.

‘In making Palestine Action a proscribed terrorist organisation, the government has added it to a list that includes al-Qaida, the UDA and the neo-Nazi Atomwaffen Division, all of which advocate terror and murder to achieve political ends.’
Huw Lemmey: www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...
'At the same moment as this genocidal famine reached a crisis point, Columbia University agreed to a $221 million settlement with the Trump administration to atone for student protests against the destruction of Gaza.' open.substack.com/pub/immersch...
'Among those arrested in London on 19 July were protesters carrying placards which read ‘Ban Starmer not Palestine Action’, although saying that Palestine Action should not be banned is the one speech act the Act expressly permits.'
‘The proscription of Palestine Action crosses a new threshold. In the injunction proceedings, Mr Justice Chamberlain accepted that PA had not committed violence against any person or endangered life or created a risk to health or safety.’
