Under proposed UK Government reforms to the Official Secrets Act, journalists could be jailed for up to 14 years for publishing stories that 'embarrass' the UK Government - that would be pretty much every honest news story about the UK Government then. https://twitter.com/PoliticsJOE_UK/status/1590297484550541313

Govt defeated in the Lords, 6th time, on the Public Order Bill,
247 votes to 192.
Protesters can be served with Serious Disruption Prevention Order but not be criminalised for protesting.
The Bill would return to the Commons.
Tell your MP to accept all Lords' amendments.

Hoping Greg Hands gets appointed as Party Chair. We have quite the story about him...

Mind you, appointing a Tory Party Chair these days is like searching for the sweetest smelling sewage worker.

Lords refuse powers for the police to arrest journalists/bloggers reporting on or observing a protest.
What kind of a society would we be if journalists/bloggers can't observe/report on what they see?

Don’t you think there’s something inherently wrong with BP, SHELL etc doubling & tripling their profits while OUR energy bills triple?
Or that their Execs get mega bonuses whilst many of us can’t feed ourselves or heat our homes?
Fairness requires a windfall tax that works, now
RT @eiecampaign
🚨 NEW: Energy giant BP has announced annual profits of £23,000,000,000 – more than double the previous year.
At the same time, 3.2 million British homes were cut off because they couldn’t afford energy bills.
Their profits = our pain
