Just to put it all out there, the four day period February 8-11, 2024, saw four consecutive days with global surface temperature 2.0°C above the pre-industrial baseline. What was once inconceivable is now normal. Rinse and repeat.

‘They turned my life upside down…there were times when I had suicidal thoughts.’ Balvinder Gill was accused of stealing £180,000 as sub-postmaster and sectioned three times. He spoke to #newsnight about the impact it’s had on his life.
In Prince Harry’s High Court victory against the Mirror, the judge found there was no doubt that Piers Morgan, as editor, knew Harry’s phone was tapped. (Piers, of course, says he didn’t.) Mr Justice Fancourt also says two ex-Mirror execs, Richard Wallace, now head of TV at…

"The legal community is gravely concerned by the experience of Jacqueline McKenzie. No lawyer should be criticised, or made the subject of a targeted campaign, for doing their job." - Nick Vineall KC & Lubna Shuja @TheLawSociety @LawSocPresident bit.ly/3DNIWXh

Of the 30 hottest days ever recorded, no fewer than 21 have occurred THIS MONTH. Temperatures in July 2023 could well be the highest for 120,000 years. This story is the lead on the BBC website, 7th on The Times, 69th on The Daily Mail, & hasn’t yet been mentioned by The Sun.
It is incredible that our parliament can pass this illegal Migration bill with so little wider public criticism. It is shaming. What have we become? Has our right wing press cowed us into this degree of inhumanity and betrayal of civilised values?

#RefugeeBanBill set to become law. The right to claim asylum in UK shaken to its core - people fleeing human rights abuses and persecution stripped of their rights. The new law is undoubtedly unworkable but the damage to our collective rights is immense….

'The world has just endured the hottest week ever recorded since instrumental measures of air temperatures began in the 1850s.' "July could be the hottest month ever... 'ever' meaning since the Eemian, interglacial period, some 120,000 years ago." theguardian.com/world/2023/jul…

Immigration detention is harmful and unnecessary, but the ‘Illegal’ Migration Bill will make it much harder for someone to challenge their detention, and will make it possible to detain people for longer. 1/3
Age disputes - a thread: The determination of a young person’s age is central to their experience of the asylum legal process, their access to education, the support and care they receive, their accommodation situation and often their future chances in the UK.
@celticmaid4 @JujuliaGrace @CatHobbs @YourNHS2021 @danielgoyal @drbobgill @AndrewMeyerson I don't have a love-hate relationship with the NHS I have a love-love relationship with the NHS. If ever I find something wrong with the NHS I don't hate it I care about it like I might care about someone who needs more help.
Wrote from the heart today about the assault on asylum and how our country does not have to be so cruel and punitive. Thank you to Jo & Leyla at @wlondonwelcome and Alphonsine & Sophie at @4refugeewomen. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
Huge news as the Court of Appeal rules the government’s Rwanda scheme unlawful. The ruling finds the Rwandan asylum system to be unsafe. These proposals have caused huge distress to the young people we work with – this is a win for them. theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/j…
