Home Secretary Suella Braverman told viewers the Government’s Illegal Migration Bill does not break the law It’s absolute boll****. She knows it, the Prime Minister knows it and so do the rest of the Government EVERYONE MUST WATCH THIS


#twitterstorians can anyone help? I'm trying to find watch committee minutes, police reports, general orders, officers correspondence, that might contain info on managing crowd disorder specifically leisure and sports (mid to late 19th century). #policehistory #archives #history

Inaction is pushing the people of Afghanistan further and further into poverty and starvation. We must act now. One small click can very quickly become one enormous signal that we want the UK government to lead on saving Afghan lives: action.savethechildren.org.uk/page/97799/dat…

"We don't count because we're from Afghanistan. We'll die slowly in history" Tears of a hopeless Afghan girl whose future is getting shattered as the Taliban advance in the country. My heart breaks for women of Afghanistan. The world has failed them. History will write this.
