Faiza Shaheen, blocked from running in the next GE by Labour essentially for being left wing. The various reasons included "liking pro-Palestine posts on social media, including a tweet about the difficulties of speaking about Israel-Palestine."

#GE2024 What have Labour done in their first campaign week? Deselected left-wing (not Israel supporting) candidates!! Diane Abbott (not sure but looks like it), now Doctor Faiza Shaheen, in Chingford, and more. This is appalling. Really angry. #UKPolitics
EDIT: it’s become a bit of a 🧵 because i am so angry. But honestly: everyone should be very angry about this, on Faiza’s behalf and for us all.
The UK Data Protection and Digital Information Bill 🗑️ 🥳
Getting this rights-busting legislation binned off at this late stage is not just good timing.
It's down to civil society challenging the dangerous proposals in the Bill every step of the way.
The next government is put on notice.

The Tories have introduced voter id to UK elections on the flimsiest evidence and with limited docs allowed for id.
The Veterans Minister asked for the new Veterans Cards to be allowed as voter id, but the Gov refused.
This leaked doc from the minister shows clearly the reason: the Tories are trying to stop young people from voting because the evidence is that young people tend not to vote Tory in great numbers.

Brixham, a Devon harbour town, has been struck by an illness caused by a microscopic parasite - cryptosporidium - in the water!
About 16,000 households and businesses in the Brixham area have been told by South West Water (SWW) not to use their tap water for drinking without boiling and cooling it first.
Not an expert but it does strike me as symptomatic of the state of our water companies and water system. #Water #Sewage #ukpolitics

The Labour Party has been accused of “disgusting” behaviour towards a Palestinian man who lost his family in Gaza, after refusing to reveal what information the party has gathered on him.
Police dragged Dalloul Neder out of a Labour fundraising event attended by the party’s deputy leader, Angela Rayner, in January, after he held up a picture of his late mother and told the audience: “I lost my family in Gaza… I want to show you my mum.”

Another day, another Article in The Times promoting the Tufton Street cabal who re unwilling to contribute to society but very eager to leech from the public purse. Intriguingly, they are called out on it (‘fink tank’ and paper) by all of the comments as of Sunday morning.
Social care costs - who would have thunk it?
