🚨 BREAKING: TAX THE RICH FLAGS AROUND BILLIONAIRES' ROW
Kensington Palace Gardens is one of the most expensive residential streets in the world, with security checkpoints, photography bans and properties selling for up to £200 million.
This level of wealth is obscene when there are 4 million children living in poverty in the UK.
It's time the super rich were made to pay their fair share. We need a House of the People with powers to tax extreme wealth. Sign up for action: takebackpower.net/take-actio…

The use of a microphone could lead to an arrest under the terrorism laws!!
The UK police have become an absolute joke.
Take Back Power retweeted
AMAZING MOMENT
A woman came back still wearing a custody tshirt having been released for a terrorism arrest.
While being arrested for declaring support for Palestine Action a second time, another woman came back to do the same.
The opposition to this ban cannot be contained.
Take Back Power retweeted
More @metpoliceuk lies.
People were arrested for:
• Being elderly & sitting down
• Clapping
• Reading poetry
• Speaking loudly
• Announcing the news that the ban will be appealed in the High Court
You don’t have to support Palestine Action to be a “terrorist” anymore.
The protest has now concluded with a total of 152 people arrested by officers.
The vast majority of arrests - 134 - were for expressing support for a proscribed organisation, under Section 12 of the Terrorism Act 2000. This included two people arrested for attempting to put up a stage at the event.
4 arrests were made on suspicion of encouraging or assisting a crime, under Section 45 of the Serious Crime Act 2007.
A number of officers were assaulted while making arrests, but thankfully none required hospital treatment. Two people were arrested for assaulting emergency workers.

“I have had 5 letters from West Yorkshire Police telling me to go to a police station, don't go to a police station, go to Leeds Magistrates Court, don't go to Leeds... go to Westminster... I emailed the court: 'Do I have to come?' They emailed back and said yes. I got here and they said no.”
Outside Westminster Magistrates Court, an activist who traveled down from West Yorkshire exposes the sheer administrative breakdown facing defendants summoned under anti-terror legislation.
After receiving contradicting instructions across five separate communications, she confirmed her attendance in writing—only to arrive in London and be turned away at the courtroom door. While court officials acknowledged the failure to notify her and offered to reimburse over £100 in travel expenses, the incident highlights a deeply dysfunctional system burning public funds and dragging ordinary people across the country for last-minute adjournments.

Utter chaos in court tomorrow as, according to the daily court listings, 1855 people from Defend Our Juries are listed to appear in courtrooms at Westminster Magistrates Court on the same day.
Many with incorrect names/details, relating to cases the court said were adjourned.
🚨 BREAKING: TAX THE RICH FLAGS AT REFORM HQ
We've just put up our reimagined Union Jacks outside Millbank Tower, as well as on Westminster Bridge, as a symbol of community, solidarity and welcome.
The national flag is being used by some groups as a symbol of hate, intimidation and division. But the only minority destroying Britain are the billionaires in their super yachts.

Today in Exeter and Manchester, Take Back Power supporters took down flags being used to spread hate and division, and put ones up which stand for community and welcome with a message we can all unite behind: tax the super rich.
Life is getting harder because billionaires and big corporations are squeezing us dry. They're the ones destroying our country, and it's time they pay their fair share.
We'll be Reclaiming the Flag again tomorrow!

🚨 PEOPLE SUPPORT TAXING THE RICH
Nuclear physicist Jake saw us putting up our reimagined Union Jacks outside No 10 North today and gave a message of support.
Other people were posing with our flags and cheering.
It's clear: the super rich do not pay their fair share, and ordinary people should be in charge of deciding how to tax extreme wealth.

we’ve had no rain for months, three (!) heatwaves, temperature records shattered, wildfires, thousands dead and we’re only halfway through summer. of course we should be hitting net zero within 10 years you maniacs
Andy Burnham’s new Energy Secretary called for Britain to hit net zero within 10 years rather than the current target of reaching net zero by 2050

Brian Eno is one of more than 100 millionaires asking Andy Burnham to tax them more.
A 2% tax on people worth over £10m could raise £24bn a year for Britain - and this is an idea that 80% of UK-based millionaires support, according to Patriotic Millionaires UK.
“We can see how disaffected people are by the way politics is going. We can see why people are looking for desperate solutions and why they’re being driven to extremes,” musician and songwriter Eno told Sky News.
"It's because they realise the cards are stacked against them and in favour of the rich. So some of the rich are saying, the cards don’t have to be stacked that way. We want to pay more tax. We want things to be more equal."

Listen to this powerful explanation of why we put up "England for Everyone" flags around Wembley Stadium this morning.
If we want a better life for everyone, we must come together to ensure the super rich pay their fair share. We need a House of the People with powers to tax extreme wealth.

Alice, 20, was one of the people putting up "England for Everyone" flags around Wembley Stadium today.
Before taking action, she said:
"While I'm not usually a fan of football, seeing how the World Cup has brought communities together has made me feel a connection with the people around me. Our billionaire backed government tries to convince us that it is migrants, people with disabilities, or other marginalised groups that are tearing our country apart, but at Take Back Power we know this isn't the truth. Once ordinary people come together, we can finally build a country that feels like ours. We need a permanent tax on the rich, to put power back into the hands of the people, so everyone can feel like they are cared for."

🚨 BREAKING: ENGLAND FOR EVERYONE FLAGS HOISTED AT WEMBLEY
Football brings us together. We we can't let fake patriots like Farage and his billionaire sponsors drive us apart, when the only minority breaking Britain are the super rich.
The England team is powered predominantly by players from migrant backgrounds. As @BellinghamJude wrote last night: "Don't let the unity and love we've seen in our country end with this campaign".
This summer we'll be Reclaiming the Flag, demanding a citizen-led assembly with powers to tax extreme wealth. Download our reimagined Union Jack design or sign up to join an action team at takebackpower.net/take-actio…
