It is beyond moving to see the way Sub-Postmasters & mistresses are still supporting each other like family, 15 years after that first meet up in Fenny Compton village hall. It is a stain on our nation how hard these brave, innocent people are still having to fight for justice.

Radical right-wing charities on Tufton Street, like the Global Warming Policy Foundation, are constantly spreading harmful climate change disinformation & denial. What does the Charity Commission do to stop them? Nothing. So we're taking them to court 👇

Climate change denial and calls to delay action have been pouring out of Tufton Street for many years, but the IEA is clearly ramping up its climate culture war even further now - and the Conservative Party is following suit.

You couldn't make it up: our waters are full of shit, but rather than giving Ofwat new powers to protect our environment and hold water companies accountable, the Government is instead imposing a legal duty on them to consider economic growth.

Over 600 UK legal experts have now written to remind the UK Government of its obligations under international law to act to prevent genocide. Merely demanding explanations from Israel doesn't cut it. Weapons sales must stop now.

1 month to go until the May elections. If you're not yet registered to vote, you've got just 2 weeks left to apply. And thanks to this awful Govt, you also now need photo ID to cast your vote - if you don't have one, apply for a free voter ID by 24 April

This makes for a great April Fools Day joke, but it's an outrageous everyday reality that politicians do this. There's a revolving door between Westminster and the fossil fuel industry and it's got to stop. More on my debate in Parliament on this:

Heartbreaking, indefensible and unacceptable that the IDF have killed humanitarian workers trying to save lives and provide food to desperate people in a famine. The UK Government must hold the Israeli Govt to account.
