It was wonderful that Melissa opened the convention. It was a pleasure to visit the University Settlement a few years ago whilst on our Jollies. They do so much inspirational work, and it always reminds me of an international youth exchange in Berlin (2010) as part of the #IFS100
Melissa Aase, CEO of the International Federation of Settlements and Neighborhood Centers, opens #IFS100 #Locality25
“The people of our movement, of Locality’s movement, have worked together as a network to build community strength, no matter where we are in the world, for the last 100 years.”

This is a desperately sad story, one doubtless repeated across the country, but it’s also desperately stupid:
“an independent report … estimated the centre is saving the council more than £500,000 a year in costs that include services in mental health, youth justice and social care”

Last youth centre in one of England’s most deprived coastal areas faces closure
Pie Factory Music in Ramsgate, Kent, runs creative projects and provides a range of support services, but the building that houses the centre is due to be sold off in February

This attempt to both-sides obvious undeniable racism is a truly grim way to report this

Is the Reform MP who says she’s driven mad by TV adverts full of Black & Asian people a racist or realist? How many migrants would the Tories expel? & should the UK be selling fighter jets to Türkiye?

Given the party's refusal to act on Pochin's brazen racism, it should be as socially unacceptable to vote for Reform as it was in the early 2000s to vote for the BNP.
And we should be prepared to say this to people's faces.

Farage tells Reform conference: “We refuse to have our children’s minds poisoned with a twisted interpretation of history.”
What I suspect he really means is that he wants children to get taught a bunch of self-affirming lies about the past aka fake history and that's really very dangerous indeed.

UK laws failing to stop rise in hate speech and violence
A new report shows racist rhetoric in UK politics and media is fuelling violence. It's personal — my friend was attacked. This must stop.

This is the documentary the BBC would not air.
Channel4 had decided to air the great documentary. It forensically examines allegations that healthcare workers including doctors have been targeted by Israeli forces.

It’s all beginning to feel a bit 1984. We’re in a battle against autocrats and oligarchs who are using money and misinformation to dismantle democracies. That’s why we’re looking for 1,984 new monthly supporters to make our biggest and boldest plans a reality (see link in bio)
