    Today at 1.30 we protest against the extortionate child citizenship fee outside the Supreme Court. Currently, children must pay £1,012 to register British citizenship, yet the admin costs are only £372 - with the remaining £640 used to cross-subsidise the immigration system 📢

    The multiple & sustained Taser shocks used against Dalian Atkinson were part of a toxic cocktail of abusive & discriminatory policing. Dalian’s tragic death must become a watershed moment - where our police forces show that Black lives do matter to them.

    This we are paying our respects to the Windrush generation: their journeys, the challenges they’ve endured and their indispensable contribution to Britain. Just four years after the Windrush Scandal, let's not forget that the fight for justice continues ✊🏿

    We're celebrating with gratitude the 73rd anniversary of the generation's arrival to the UK. Thank you for the invaluable contributions you made to the NHS and our society as a whole.
