I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees.
No refugee underfunded a school.
No refugee closed a hospital.
No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled.
We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!
What an absolute disgrace. A FIFA-certified referee being denied entry to the United States purely because he is Somali.
The World Cup is meant to bring people together. This is racism, plain and simple. Shameful.

The US bombed a primary school in Iran, killing 168 girls.
Why is nobody talking about this anymore?
These abominable war crimes should not be forgotten — and nor should the lives, hopes and dreams of human beings who were slaughtered with impunity.
Water privatisation has been a complete & utter failure.
It is absurd that the government's report into the water industry didn't even consider public ownership.
That's not a report. That's a political broadcast for the private sector.
Put water back into public hands, now.
The government was wrong to cut winter fuel payments.
It was wrong to keep the 2-child benefit cap.
It was wrong to slash disability benefits.
Pushing people into poverty is the wrong thing to do. The right thing to do is redistribute wealth and power so that everyone can live in dignity.
It was great to catch up with Chelsea Manning.
Chelsea paid an enormous price for exposing US war crimes to the world — and continues to speak out against state surveillance and defend the human rights of others.
She is proof that acts of courage can change the world.
Billionaires should not own social media platforms.
Billionaires should not run our newspapers.
Billionaires should not control our politics.
A free media is a democratic media - a public good that is owned and run by us all.
There is a very simple reason why the UK government refuses to acknowledge the genocide in Gaza.
If they did, they would be admitting their own complicity in one of the greatest crimes of our time.
End all arms sales to Israel, now.
The ICC’s arrest warrants are long overdue.
The Prime Minister & Foreign Secretary must immediately endorse this decision. That is the bare minimum.
Will the UK government now, finally, honour its international obligations to prevent genocide and end all arms sales to Israel?
I am really saddened by the level of vitriol and hatred being directed toward the trans community.
We are losing our common humanity. How hard is it to treat people with kindness and respect?
Trans people are human beings — and they deserve to live in dignity like anyone else.
Millions of people are worried about paying their rent, feeding their kids or losing vital disability benefits.
If the government cared about people's security, it would reverse cruel cuts, end child poverty and pursue an agenda for peace.
Let's fund welfare, not warfare.
Our government is sleepwalking into climate catastrophe.
My piece for @theguardian.com on another broken pledge slipping under the radar.

The US has launched an unprovoked and illegal attack on Venezuela.
This is a brazen attempt to secure control over Venezuelan natural resources.
It is an act of war that puts the lives of millions of people at risk, and should be condemned by anyone who believes in sovereignty & international law.
80 years ago, the US dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima.
We remember the thousands who were killed in a crime against humanity, as well as the survivors who carried the pain of the past.
Today, let us honour them by vowing to rid our world of nuclear weapons once and for all.
We are an unstoppable movement for peace, for justice, and for Palestine.

Israel has destroyed the last remaining hospital in northern Gaza.
We have witnessed the total decimation of Palestinian healthcare, met with silence from political leaders who refuse to acknowledge the horrors they have enabled.
This is the dehumanising reality of genocide.
Politics is not a game. It's people's lives.
The Government's welfare cuts will have a catastrophic impact on the sick & disabled, and plunge hundreds of thousands of people into poverty.
It's simple: show some humanity and drop this Bill, now.
I have referred Sky News and GMB to Ofcom over disgraceful and baseless smears that have been made about me.
There is nothing antisemitic about supporting the people of Palestine.
I will continue to speak out against racism, apartheid and genocide.

This government could have taken on the super-rich to tackle inequality.
They chose to fan the flames of racism and embolden the far-right instead.
Our country needs a change in direction, now.
It’s time for a real alternative that redistributes wealth, ownership and power.
Your bills are going up because this government would rather protect the profits of a few corporations than the livelihoods of millions of ordinary people.
End this outrageous rip-off, and take water and energy into public ownership now.
The President of the United States welcome a leader wanted by the ICC and officially endorsed ethnic cleansing.
Now would be a good time for our government to defend international law.
If they won’t say it, we will: Palestinians aren’t going anywhere.
World leaders can make as many statements as they like opposing Israel's actions in Gaza.
Until they end the sale of weapons to Israel, they remain complicit in the mass murder of Palestinians.
Stop arming genocide, now.
This is a seminal moment: a Labour government cutting disability benefits. Not just continuing Tory levels. Cutting.
This comes after a week of speculation, itself an act of cruelty by a government toying with people’s dignity.
These cuts are disgraceful - and they will cost lives.
The government could have finally brought Royal Mail into public ownership.
It sold it to a Czech billionaire instead.
We are being ripped off. It’s time to put Royal Mail back where it belongs: in public hands.

Palestinians are not “facing” starvation.
They are being starved to death by Israel.
Yet our government still refuses to end all arms sales and implement sanctions, granting endless impunity for Israel's crimes against humanity.
End the blockade — and stop the genocide.
