For Spain, granting migrants residency is about economics as much as ethics
Laura Davison, NUJ general secretary, said:
βThe NUJ will always put the safety, equality and dignity of women journalists at the heart of our work - from backing motions to end violence against women to demanding real action to close the gender pay gap.β #IWD2026

Happy International Womenβs Day
In 1987 Diane Abbott became the first Black woman elected to Parliament.
Ten years later, Oona King.
In 2005, I became the third.
That was the pace of progress until then.
International Womenβs Day I reflect on the barriers Black women still face.

Corruption in England's water industry and its regulation
2,778 serious pollution incidents reported in 2024.
Officials downgraded 2,735 (98%) to minor incidents.
Only 496 attended before downgrading; the rest were deemed minor.
Regulators collude with industry, inflicting harms to people.
Just naked racism from Farage and the Mail.
Only British and commonwealth citizens are allowed to vote. It's not 'stealing' to legally take part in your own country's elections
Israeli rep at UN plays with his phone rather than pay attention to a spokesperson for the Arab States.
How many people will die just to protect the skin of the orange toad wart? How many children may have already died in the wake of his rise to power. A war declared to avoid him being unseated. Fascism.
They shot a 14 year old child.
Then blocked the ambulance reaching him.
Then laughed as they watched him die.
This is what the IOF does every day - murder children with impunity and laugh as they do it.

The mind boggles.
Overseas nurses down by 93%, overseas care workers by 97%.
In what world does this make sense? Especially if there is no attempt to replace them by a homegrown workforce?
One thing is certain, and that is that everyone needs a nurse or care worker at some point in their lives.
A must-read for anyone who uses water. Ask your MP what s/he thinks about it. @DamienEgan

The Israeli military claimed to target Hamas; the group denies that it has training facilities in Lebanonβs refugee camps. According to the U.N., the Israeli military has launched more than 10,000 attacks since it agreed to a so-called ceasefire with Hezbollah.
Clearly gunboat βdiplomacyβ is making a comeback - did it ever go way?

This first meeting of the board of piss is no different to the its inaugural meeting. Self congratulation on steroids. But what is happening in Gaza for the Palestinians?
I am sure the people Gaza are excited to know FIFA will bring footballers to see them. The orange toad wart is excelling himself in hyperbole, misinformation, and self-praise. A disgrace to the people of America.
Trump : Such an fffing liar! Why donβt these world βleadersβ challenge him. Where is the evidence of humanitarian aid to Gaza? And what the heβll has his wifeβs film got to do with anything (and whereβs the evidence people go to see it 4 times?)
VIDEO: π΅πΈ Gazan artist's beach art welcomes start of Ramadan
Palestinian artist Yazeed Abu Jarad sculpted the words 'Welcome Ramadan' with sand on the beach in Deir el-Balah in the central Gaza Strip a day ahead of the start of the Muslim holy month
Wasnβt the Board of Piss supposed to be planning the future of Gaza? Now it would appear it is merely another vehicle for the orange toad wart to brag about himself.

The use of taxis for medical appointments, authorised by by HO, was because HO kept moving asylum seekers from town to town instead of dealing with their claims. Self-serving hypocritical headlines.
