BREAKING - WE HAVE WON!

Following a successful Judicial Review brought by Huda Ammori, and a sustained campaign of defiance by defend our juries leading to almost 3,000 ‘terror’ arrests, the ban on Palestine Action has been ruled unlawful in the courts.

#pride #ally

I'm not a Springsteen fan but am behind anyone who opens a tour with "America...is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent and treasonous administration. Tonight, we ask all who believe in democracy...to rise with us, raise your voices against authoritarianism and let freedom ring!”

#nowplaying Jurg Frey's Voices. It's totally brilliant.

I love this

The Supreme Court ignored trans voices. I’m ashamed of what our law has become | Good Law Project The Supreme Court’s decision to exclude trans voices has harmed trans people – and harmed the fairness of their ruling.

UK Supreme Court Rules That Trans Women Aren’t Women under the Equality Act 2010 The legal definition of a woman in the UK now excludes trans people: This is what it means for Trans+ rights in the country

Solidarity with all trans and nonbinary people. Yesterday's ruling will make lives harder and put rights further at risk.
