🧭"Far-right riots are shining a light on the unequal application of anti-protest laws passed by the Conservatives & pressed on by Labour"- @HRAllen.
🧭It’s unnerving to know even our more peaceful civil protests are under threat from ominous legislation.

📚#immigrant to the UK, @ClaudioOgassBil decided to embark on the work of digging into the memory of #Latin America. He knows the importance of telling more than the official story.

The @CNDuk in the 1980s and the pro-#Palestine movement have both faced intense scrutiny and demonization. Both share common strategies and challenges in countering negative portrayals.

🫵A must-read analysis by @HRAllen in @The_Prisma🫵
🍢Anti-immigration sentiment is not the main cause of Britain’s housing shortage nor of the other economic challenges that it faces.

The Maduro govt in #Venezuela has given UN human rights officials 72 hours to leave the country after the office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights expressed “deep concern” over the jailing of prominent civil society activist @rociosanmiguel. A 🧵:
So this is what #Labour are suspending a parliamentary candidate for?
This isn't antisemitism? This is anti-Israel. Big difference.
It's a fair take when you see the blissful ignorance of international outcry and law by Benjamin Netanyahu.
What is going on?!

🇲🇰 Trapped in North Macedonia.
Around 600,000 of North Macedonia's citizens won't be allowed to travel starting today as the passports not containing the country’s new name, Republic of North Macedonia, won't be valid anymore.
The state authorities failed to issue new ones on time. According to the Minister of Interior "it is physically impossible to issue all the documents by the deadline".
As part of the Prespa Agreement, North Macedonia has agreed to invalidate travel documents using its former name. This marks the end of a five-year transition period following the resolution of a name dispute with Greece.

The government of Kosova, within its competences, will not enforce any punitive measures during the transition period and is calling on other pillars to maintain the same stance dutifully. We are working on more comprehensive information, which we will unveil in the coming days.

PM Kurti's closing statement:
Serbian tabloid front pages fantasize a revenge of Kosovo on Serbs.
Yes, over 10,000 unarmed civilians have been killed. 20,000 women raped.
But we are not going to take revenge.
I want justice, and justice is justice by not being revenge.
