Friends of the Congo @congofriends

Congo isn't “resource-cursed.” It is exploited. The curse is colonialism, not the minerals or the people.

Just in case the government missed the message: we are not going away. A statement from the Independent Alliance on Nakba Day.

We ARE becoming strangers — not because of migrants, but because of insecure work, (anti-)social media, lack of shared spaces and low wages preventing socialising. Bring back youth clubs, fix community centres, support workers. Invest in our country — don’t scapegoat migrants.

⚠️Welsh police forces have just introduced an intrusive "on-the-spot" facial recognition app. "Resorting straight to biometric surveillance when they're using so many unlawfully held images and when this technology....it's incredibly concerning." @JHurfurt tells @ITVWales

Despite ICC arrest warrants & the ICJ's interim ruling, the UK continues to export components for F-35 jets, facilitates arms deliveries via RAF Akrotiri & conducts daily surveillance flights over Gaza. The UK is not a passive bystander to genocide. It is an active participant.

17 civil society groups have written to the Home Secretary about AI in policing. Its use magnifies discrimination and injustice for marginalised communities in the legal system. We want an outright ban on ‘predictive policing’. #SafetyNotSurveillance openrightsgroup.org/press-releases…

For the past year, millions of us around the world have made repeated, desperate calls for a ceasefire. We demanded an end to the genocide. We warned of a disastrous regional conflict. We were ignored. Governments have fuelled the machinery of war. Their indifference to human life has destroyed prospects for peace and endangered us all. All of this violence was entirely avoidable. Without urgent de-escalation, more unimaginable horror is on the horizon. It’s time to listen to the voices of ordinary people across the globe calling for peace. That means ending the root cause of this appalling cycle of violence: the occupation of Palestine.

🏘️ Many in our communities experience harm via services meant to care and protect, because of structural inequalities that prevent access, or where people receive further trauma from staff who do not know how to meet needs.

In every iteration of hatred mobilised by capitalists and exploiters like Nigel Farage, Tommy Robinson and Establishment Media, we find resistance and communities in solidarity with those oppressed.
