👋Hi Barbie!
Happy Barbie day everyone🎟️💅
This week not only marks the cinematic event of the summer, but the Illegal Immigration Bill also passed a few days ago and it looks as though someone has been doing some alternative promo 👀

Picture of bus stop poster of mimicking Barbie movie marketing with Suella Braverman. Text on poster reads “This Barbie is not claimed by her ancestors.” “Suella Braverman told reporters it is her “obsession” and “dream” to deport the most vulnerable migrants and asylum seekers to their death. Fuck her. #ThisBarbieIsAC*nt”
Picture of bus stop poster of mimicking Barbie movie marketing with Rishi Sunak. Text on poster reads “This Ken is a massive C*NT.” “Rishi Sunak has presided over the most forceful pushback of the human rights of migrants and asylum seekers in modern British history. #ThisBarbieIsAC*nt”
This government’s treatment of migrants and asylum seekers is an outrage that violates human rights and fails to protect those fleeing from persecution and conflict. It will make life even more dangerous for people on the move.

Picture of bus stop poster of mimicking Barbie movie marketing with Jacob Rees-Mogg. Text on poster reads “This Ken is a white supremacist” “Jacob Rees-Mogg enjoys cosplaying as a 1930s era aristocrat, boasting of his pride in Britain’s colonial past, defending concentration camps and shouting racial slurs in The Commons. And so much more… #ThisBarbieIsAC*nt”
Picture of bus stop poster of mimicking Barbie movie marketing with Robert Jenrick. Text on poster reads “This Ken is a simp for imperialism.” “Robert Jenrick thinks that “migration threatens to cannibalise the compassion of the British public”, while simultaneously painting over kids’ murals in detention centres. I OK hun? #ThisBarbieIsAC*nt”
It’s important to remember that serving cunt and being a cunt are two very different things 😘 #ThisBarbieIsACunt

Picture of bus stop poster of mimicking Barbie movie marketing with Lee Anderson. Text on poster reads “This Ken is a class traitor” “Lee Anderson is a class traitor. From a working class background, Lee is now fanning the flames of fascism for an ego boost #ThisBarbieIsAC*nt”
Picture of bus stop poster of mimicking Barbie movie marketing with Priti Patel. Text on poster reads “This Barbie is gagging to deport your grandma.” “Priti Patel orchestrated the Rwanda scheme despite admitting that her own parents might not have been allowed in the UK under her immigration laws #ThisBarbieIsAC*nt”

Yesterday queer activists held a die in to return the depoliticised @prideinlondon parade to its roots as a protest against police violence.

huckmag.com/perspectives/a…
Over the past few days, many traditional media platforms like the Guardian, the BBC and the Independent have acknowledged the call for no cops at Pride.
While we welcome the decision to ban uniformed police marching, this is not enough and does not reflect the demands we have been making for years.

Queer activists just held a die in and halted Pride in London for 23 minutes, one minute for every person who has died in police custody in England and Wales since the start of 2021.

WE DEMAND NO COPS AT PRIDE✊🏳️‍🌈
@PrideinLondon admitted yesterday that policing presence makes many members of our community feel unsafe by asking cops to not wear uniforms

However the cops are still here !!

🚫 THIS IS NOT ENOUGH 🚫
Many people in our community face police violence on a daily basis. The cops are institutionally racist, sexist, and transphobic – whether they be straight or gay, in rainbow t-shirts or in uniform.

🌱✨🎉 ORGANISING WORKS! !🎉 ✨🌱

theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/j…
We've been campaigning on this for years, as have many other incredible people and groups!! It's so so good to see the institutionally racist, sexist, and homophobic police held to account
But also it comes at a cost. It shouldn't have taken what it's taken to get here. We shouldn’t have had to draw on the deaths of young gay men or a gay man being deported during pride month to get Pride in London to listen to us.
