I am not in favour of banning/proscribing Palestinian supporters for non violent direct action. I took action at Greenham common and Brawdy US base in South West Wales to protest against and try to prevent nuclear use and our populations being made a target. I would do it again.

Diversity, equality &!inclusion are core values of true socialism & Labour values. Don’t forget, equality legislation is about inclusion and fair treatment of everyone. Many that Reform would wish to recruit; Women, low waged, disabled, are still not treated equally. NO TO BLUE Labour
I hope #ukgov doesnt go down this path to eliminate #DEI as Trump is doing.
The Equality Act 2010 is an essential piece of legislation and prevents discrimination.
DEI gets a bad name because some focus on quotas instead of creating a level playing field - as I wrote about here bit.ly/3Q4OBP2
