Michelle, will you be holding a protest every time a white man is accused or convicted of sexually abusing a child? Or is this a service exclusively for black and brown men? xoxo
It is NOT far-right nor racist to want to protect women & children. Folk have been pushed into having to defend their own communities because the ‘powers that be’ insist on increasing the risk to them, ignoring their safety concerns. We even have a minister for women’s safety…
Speaking from first hand experience, a) private consultants do not always accurately copy in NHS GPs (or even copy them in at all) so patients will have to chase it themselves, b) I have got countless stories from people of NHS primary and secondary care rejecting private…
Where's the outrage now? There was plenty of hate and outrage when disabled people were being accused of defrauding the system, so why not the same outrage when DWP staff are caught stealing?
DWP staff have been caught stealing disabled people's benefit money The @theipaper reported the story, but don't think it downplayed DWP staff stealing from claimants - instead, focusing on... yes, you guessed it: benefit fraud. A 'few bad apples'??? thecanary.co/uk/analysis/20…
She was just minding her own business in her bulldozer in a house and the damn thing collapsed on her!
🚨BREAKING: Israeli soldier Lenny Shoham was killed this morning in Jabalia after a house collapsed onto her bulldozer during a military operation.
DWP internal documents show Labour assurances on Universal Credit cuts are worthless Internal WCA assessor training obtained by the Canary just blew a hole in Labour's assurances on fluctuating conditions under the Welfare Bill. @h_sharland reports: thecanary.co/uk/analysis/20…
New from me - Labour is gutting "substantial risk" for new UC claimants - the legal safeguard protecting suicidal & vulnerable disabled people from DWP pressure. This is life-and-death so please write to Lords for Tuesday & have it centred in Timms review tinyurl.com/4h8fazur
Stop paying MPs expenses, stop western imperialism displacing people in the Middle East, and start asking why so many idiots are paying attention to rich, powerful, white men
Empty the hotels, deport the lot and launch a national removal operation targeting all those who entered the country illegally. Importantly? Apologise to, and compensate, the local communities affected. Join Restore Britain to help us push for it. restorebritain.org.uk/join_us
My latest article for @TheCanaryUK: BR-319 threatens the Amazon in the name of 'progress' and politics. The BR-319 is more than just a highway; it’s a symbol of a dangerous world where politicians allow short-term profits and corporate greed. thecanary.co/global/world-a…
If anyone thinks the Wall Street Journal wouldn't vet this story before publishing it, they're dumb enough to vote for Trump 3 times.
This highway threatens the Amazon in the name of 'progress' and politics The BR-319 is more than just a highway; it’s a symbol of a dangerous world where politicians allow short-term profits and corporate greed. @MAPICC2021 has the latest news #BR319 thecanary.co/global/world-a…
As someone actually trained in behavioural psychology—unlike most MPs—I can tell you: financial precarity doesn’t “incentivise” sick people to work. It breaks them. Stress worsens health. Fear doesn’t create productivity. It creates collapse. #TakingThePIP
DWP boss just said Universal Credit gives disabled people 'perverse incentives' not to work Liz Kendall's shocking comments came just as a new report slams the DWP for failing vulnerable claimants. So which is it??? #TakingThePIP thecanary.co/uk/analysis/20…
Kneecap police investigation exposed as a political stunt as cops drop all of it The investigation into @KNEECAPCEOL was nothing more than a witch-hunt designed to unnerve anyone standing up for Palestine, writes @wordsbyHG #Kneecap thecanary.co/trending/2025/…
As a high school teacher, I can honestly say I'd rather trust democracy to 16 year olds than spiteful, elderly Daily Mail readers every day of the week.
Are those saying 16-year-olds shouldn’t be given the vote because they’re children and don’t know what they’re doing the same individuals who said Shamima Begum knew exactly what she was doing?
If Diane Abbott has been suspended for her comments today… are we to take it that the British Labour Party believes that Jewish people and travellers *can* be positively identified by physical characteristics?! Because that is *far more* problematic than anything Diane has said.
You don’t really think 16 year olds are to immature to vote. You’re just worried they won’t vote for the same nasty right wing politicians that you do
Weird how all the people saying that 16/17 year olds shouldn’t vote are the same ones currently giving a platform to a 12 year old girl. 🤔
(Not sure if anyone can see my posts anymore tbh but...) I'm trying to find anyone who has experienced any #ActivistAnomalies over the years using social media platforms. This has been happening to me since 2016 and I know that this has affected 1/5
GB News STILL refuses to apologise for guest's 'starve or shoot' disabled people comment With a constant drip of 'scrounger' scapegoating in politics and the MSM, is it any wonder a GB News presenter can say this though, argues @wordsbyHG #TakingThePIP thecanary.co/trending/2025/…
The DWP admits a shocking revelation to the Canary over its plans to cut PIP It told @h_sharland in a series of FOIs its rationale for saying 90% of claimants wouldn't have their PIP cut was that they'd be MOTIVATED to score more points on assessments‼️ thecanary.co/uk/analysis/20…
