As a working class person in journalism, it troubles me how tough it still is for working class people to break into the trade. So I'm freeing up some time in my calendar for chats with aspirant working class journalists.

Back of my Polling Card for local elections. For 1st time, photo ID is required. Card gives many options for elderly or those with disability. None, NONE, for younger or student voters. The policy is simply biased against younger voters, designed to suppress their vote.

I see the government has authorised the "emergency" use of #neonicotinoid #pesticides on sugarbeet again. Really, why keep pretending? 🙄 gov.uk/government/publicatio…

I ASK EVERYONE WHO SEES THIS TWEET TO PLEASE RT IT.
Tomorrow nurses strike. They will be put through hell by the media, politicians and the establishment.
Ahead of the action please share this tweet if you back the nurses and find it sickening that they are being vilified.

Over 1 million people have joined Mastodon since October 27. Between that and those who returned to their old accounts, the number of active users has risen to over 1.6 million today, which, for context, is over 3 times what it was just about two weeks ago!

Yesterday was my last day at Twitter: the entire Human Rights team has been cut from the company.
I am enormously proud of the work we did to implement the UN Guiding Principles on Business & Human Rights, to protect those at-risk in global conflicts & crises including Ethiopia,

The majority of refugees that arrived in Britain via the Channel were granted asylum.
Apart from the unacceptable inflammatory rhetoric, what she tries to insinuate here is not true. Again.

Sure we need border controls. The Home Office needs to get a grip. And need a Minister capable of doing so. But these are people and deserve a basic level of respect rather than still being talked about as malevolent others just as my great-great-grandparents were 130 years ago.

Back in 1893 the Tory MP for Thanet James Lowther gave a speech saying the country was being "overrun" by "destitute foreign migrants" who should go back to where they came from. He was talking about Jews, including my great-great-grandparents.

Please , please , please add your name to this . It is incredible that in 2022 we are still discussing ripping up precious chalk streams and ancient woodland for road builds that will increase CO2 emissions and traffic . . . we cannot allow this to continue .
Norfolk's chalk streams are under threat. Can you spare 5 minutes to help?
We've created an e-action to make it quick and easy for you to respond to Norfolk County Council's public consultation on the Norwich Western Link.
Stand up for nature today: norfolkwt.uk/ActNow ✋⛔

Tomorrow, 40,000 BT and Openreach workers will strike for decent pay.
Last year, BT Group made £1.3bn profit, gave £750m to shareholders and paid £3.5m to its CEO.
Meanwhile, many of its workers were forced to use foodbanks.
RT if you support their strike 👊

DWP are sitting on research they refuse to publish on whether benefits sanctions do anything useful. Not hard to guess why they are refusing to publish it.
