@ew6389.bsky.socialReposted by @amnestyealing.bsky.socialPLEASE sign this, we are so close. The cruelty in these measures is hard to convey, a signature seems a bare minimum way you can fight back 🧡

The day after the U.S. announced it will livestream a firing squad execution, a lawyer who has successfully fought against the death penalty globally wins the Nobel.
@brentharrowpsc.bsky.socialReposted by @amnestyealing.bsky.socialThank you to all the Kilburn businesses promoting the National March for Palestine tomorrow, Saturday 10 October - part of a global day for Palestine marking 3 years since the start of Israel’s horrific genocide in Gaza.

@amnestyuk.bsky.socialReposted by @amnestyealing.bsky.social🚨BREAKING: The government's own statistics show there was a *record level of terrorism arrests* in the year leading up to June this year. The vast majority of the enormous increase in terrorism arrests are of grandparents, teenagers and everyone in between for peacefully holding placards.

@amnestyuk.bsky.socialReposted by @amnestyealing.bsky.social“They shall not pass.” 90 years ago today, as antisemitism and fascism were on the rise throughout Europe, Oswald Mosley’s racist British Union of Fascists planned a provocative march through the Jewish community of East London.
@amnestyealing.bsky.social@amnestyealing.bsky.social joined thousands of trade unionists and community groups at the #CableStreet90 commemoration of the battle of #CableStreet when Oswald Moseley's fascists were blocked from marching in the East End. Communities under threat still need to be protected today. No Pasaran !
@unhcr.orgReposted by @amnestyealing.bsky.socialEducation can unlock incredible opportunities. Just ask our Goodwill Ambassador Mary Maker.
She grew up as a refugee in Kakuma, Kenya and recently attended #UNGA in New York to share a clear message.
Refugees need more than words.
They need action.
@reprievehq.bsky.socialReposted by @amnestyealing.bsky.social"'It is hard to see how this can be allowed to continue — not only in Tennessee, but nationwide,' said Maya Foa, the chief executive of Reprieve, an anti-death penalty group. She called the failed attempt to kill Ms. Pike 'one of the most catastrophic executions' in US history."
@amnestyealing.bsky.socialAsk UK government to uphold our human rights commitments by dropping the charges and not pursuing prosecutions against all those who have participated in peaceful protests in support of ‘Palestine Action’. www.amnesty.org/en/documents...
@amnestyealing.bsky.socialThe arrest of peaceful protestors is a violation of the UK’s international obligations to protect freedom of expression and peaceful assembly. The UK now has political prisoners including 28 year old Michael Sackur, who was born and raised in Ealing ! www.amnesty.org.uk/get-involved...
@amnestyealing.bsky.socialJoin the @amnestyuk.bsky.social bloc at the march to commemorate the 90th anniversary of the Battle of Cable Street. 4th October 11:45am, Tower Hamlets Town Hall E1 1BJ. No Pasaran!

@amnestyuk.bsky.socialReposted by @amnestyealing.bsky.socialPatients, health workers and communities are clear: we want Palantir out of our NHS.
Last night, hundreds of us rallied outside Palantir's London HQ to say so. Thank you to everyone who showed up, from local actions to the rally 💛
