Love this so much. I am so lucky that this is my summer every year. What will my devious little brain create do with this year's gorgeous casts...i don't think it even knows yet ✨🧠✨

Chris Kaba’s family has issued a statement: ‘The not guilty verdict leaves us with the deep pain of injustice… this decision shows his life - and many others like him - does not matter to the system.’ Full statement attached.

If the sight of human beings burning alive won’t stop the UK government supplying arms to Israel, what will?

My perspective of the world has been completely changed over the past 12 months. My faith in the idea of universal human rights has been shattered. The truth, I now realise, is that if the USA supports a nation state then that state can do whatever it wants to whoever it wants.

Woken up to see videos of Palestinians being incinerated by Israeli bombs, one of them writhing about screaming on a hospital bed, burned alive with an IV drip still in his arm. I don’t know what kind of person isn’t irrevocably changed by this.

The rest of our lives are going to be filled with people pretending they didn't understand what's been going on in Gaza for the past year, when they absolutely, 100% did and were ok with it.

With the revelation that Dave Grohl has fallen, it's finally time to admit that it is all men.

Clive James, not terribly impressed with what Lindsay Anderson did with an Alan Bennett piece, comes up with this line about a sense of humour. It's just made me catch my breath slightly.

The rain it raineth every day … but it couldn’t dampen the spirits of the dazzling stars of ⁦@weareopenbar⁩ tonight ⁦@RedLionBarnes⁩ - on song, on form, on the money with a marvellous Much Ado - dark at times, funny, true & touching, too. A 5 star palpable hit!

daily reminder that tracy-ann oberman is a massive zionist and transphobe and should have never been brought back by eastenders. the producers should be ashamed of themselves for putting the show above their morals.

Chrissie’s back. #EastEnders, this September on @BBC One and on @BBC iPlayer. #ChrissieWatts

🧵 Okay folks, big news. 📣 I'm currently setting up a charity to help Neurodivergent actors and drama school students. I'm looking to connect with lots of different people with a view to getting the word out there and eventually finding suitable board members/trustees.

So my tour is coming to an end. As of next week I will be unemployed. Will be an available for acting/assisting work. Also if anyone London bases knows anywhere that’s willing to hire an out-of-work actor (preferably day work/no evenings) then I would be entirely grateful

we need this. we need to stop pretending people are saying normal things when they are talking about actual violence. watch till the end.

My wonderful, beautiful and brave friend Eva has, along with four others, been sentenced to one year in prison today in Glasgow. She has been imprisoned for taking peaceful action to save Palestinian lives - by occupying an Israeli arms factory. This is an evil decision

BREAKING: Five actionists were sentenced to prison today after they occupied and cost Thales' weapons factory in Glasgow over £1million. For disrupting Scotland's complicity in colonialism and genocide, three were given 12 months and two were given 14 and 16 month sentences.…

.@nelsabbey "[far right] are showing up in areas with low ethnic minority populations but an ethnic minority presence, meaning they'll be limited resistance, but thankfully anti racist groups have mobilised people to those areas" The presenters & Mail hack aren't keen on that!

In the Labour Party they will throw you out for disagreeing with child poverty but they allow disgusting transphobes like Duffield a free pass to spread hate

hi @UKLabour @labourlgbtq i think it’s pretty clear no standing uk mp should have a public facing profile like this, or indeed hold these views, while in office. you need to remove the whip immediately and stop the spread of this hateful (and factually incorrect) transphobia now

Nicky Diss Reposted

Of all the people to make a statement like this, I did not expect it’d be Nicola. Not only is this factually inaccurate and unsportsmanlike, it’s also irresponsible to be adding fuel to a completely baseless and hateful fire that could tarnish/ruin this poor woman’s career.
