Despite huge public outcry the #PolicingBill has been forced through, diminishing our rights and weakening democracy.

But this is far from the outright victory the government sought to win.
mirror.co.uk/news/politics/… The House of Lords kicked out some of the most draconian proposed measures, such as individual protest bans and police powers to stop and search protestors.

The gov is proposing an ‘anti-boycott bill’ that threatens our ability to campaign for social & climate justice in the UK & around the world.

Along with 40+ unions, civil society & faith orgs, we've signed a statement condemning this➡️ righttoboycott.org.uk
#RightToBoycott The bill is the latest government attack on our civil space to protest and win positive change.

It's intended to outlaw the boycott, divestment, and sanctions campaigning that pressures Israel to halt its illegal attacks on the Palestinian people and their rights.

We don't need this mine.

It won't lower bills, provide energy security, or offer secure jobs. Here's why... 🧵
#NoNewCoal
bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan… The Whitehaven mine would produce coking coal for steel production - not for energy - and 85-90% of the coal will be exported.

And the coal produced would replace imports from the U.S., not from Russia.

1/) It's #EnvironmenstrualWeek with @Wen_UK, so we're talking period plastic and access to sustainable period care...

Access to sustainable period products is an environmental and social justice issue 🩸 A thread 👇 2/) The cheapest menstrual product options are often those with the most potential to damage our health and planet, which means people with the least power have the greatest exposure to dangerous products.

⚡ YOU'VE WON! WE'VE WON! ⚡
The government has just announced an official end to their support for #fracking in England, after years of tireless campaigning. Fracking isn't wanted, isn't needed, and now - isn't happening.

Huge congratulations to all amazing campaigners! 🎉🍻💪 “This... is a tremendous victory for communities and the climate. For nearly a decade local people... have fought a David and Goliath battle against this powerful (#fracking) industry. We are proud to have been part of that fight.” - @CraigBennett3
