This is a Facebook ad for ‘project makeover’ a game aimed at young girls… it shows a woman being punched by a man several times in the first seconds, and suggests the cure for this is a makeover… 🤬 #vawg ⁦@womensaid⁩ ⁦@BBCWomansHour⁩ ⁦⁦@RefugeCharity⁩

Labour are backtracking on a plan to help save birds: by blocking a new rule that would make developers put a £35 nest brick in every new home. They think it'll help win them votes - we need to show it would do the opposite. Sign the petition 38d.gs/zcpv

What a hero!!
Wow. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde fearlessly calls out Trump and Vance to their faces. This is heroic.

Decent article here. Nothing surprising in it sadly, Starmer’s Labour have let us all down. And Starmer likes Coldplay… it’s all very predictable, but it’s still disappointing! inews.co.uk/opinion/swept-up…

This didn’t last! 🙄
Today, Ofgem have announced an energy price cap rise that almost triples bills since last winter. This rise will be devastating to people across the country. Labour has a fully costed plan to freeze energy bills, meaning people won’t pay a penny more this winter.

Jeeze, knife crime involving/affecting young people has gone up as youth work has been slashed. Youth work isn’t “tough love”, and this sort of rhetoric smacks of Thatcher’s ‘short sharp shock’ approach, which frankly caused more damage…

Why aren’t politicians listening? We literally can’t go on like this, we are part of nature - as is the air we breathe, the water we drink, the food we eat! Nature is not something remote that we can occasionally visit and look at!

Too right, privatisation isn’t working for consumers!
It would take the average UK worker more than 32,000 years to make what British Gas just made in 6 months. This is a cost-of-greed crisis — and millions of people are paying the price. There is an alternative: bring energy into democratic public ownership!

Hearing many reports of very hot workplaces… this was #Mansfield @BandQ today. Employers have a duty to keep temperatures comfortable…
There's no law for maximum working temperature, or when it's too hot to work. However, employers must keep workplaces at a comfortable temperature. Check out the @H_S_E official guidance here: hse.gov.uk/temperature/index…

Tonight’s result is momentous, and hard won - for half of the last 100 years women were banned from playing…
In 1920, 53,000 fans watched Dick, Kerr Ladies beat St. Helen's Ladies 4-0. In 1921, the FA banned women from playing football in England due to that game - which raised the equivalent of £140k in today's money, of which they had no control over. The ban lasted 51 years.
I’ve never been interested in football …BUT I’ve been drawn to watching this, and tbh I’m absolutely chuffed for them. A massive achievement in women’s football - which has historically been underfunded and overlooked! Well done 👏👏👏
WE ARE EUROPEAN CHAMPIONS! 🤩🏆
