I get it. Instead of a broad tent, #KierStarmer seems to want a singular, "centrist" positionBut, Britain is in the same state as America. #Johnson and #Truss and the #PolicingBill all show that #Tories are a threat to democracy. We need a coalition of all parties to stop them. No one party is "the answer".
#TacticalVoting is the key. With tactical voting, we have some ability to influence the actions they take.

You don't outdo Tories, Populists, Libertarians, Haters & Otherers by aping or pandering to them.
You don't prevent erosion of Rights by staying silent or spouting half hearted BS!
You change Vision & Narrative, form a #ProgressiveAlliance across all parts of the UK & fight to fundamentally change our 2 party political hegemony, the Constution, ElectoralSystem & ReferendumProcess!

"Commander Vimes didn’t like the phrase “The innocent have nothing to fear,” believing the innocent had everything to fear, mostly from the guilty but in the longer term even more from those who say things like “The innocent have nothing to fear.”

So Iranians can protest, but British can't?
There is something seriously wrong here!

Arrested Journalists Speak Out over New Policing Act
Josiah Mortimer talks to Tom Bowles and Rich Felgate who were locked up for covering an environmental protest, and reports on more repressive legislation to come

Tory MPs just voted *again* to ban protests which are "too noisy" - a direct assault on our democracy & precious #RightToProtest. Just hope it gets reinstated in the Lords (who ironically seem to be doing a much better job at defending civil liberties than Commons) #PolicingBill

💪 Overnight the House of Lords defeated a series of chilling authoritarian new amendments outright that the Government had tried to tack on to the #PolicingBill.
✊ This is a BIG WIN for human rights and civil liberties in the UK!

RT from Mark Johnson (@Mark_AJohnson)
The Government cynically tried to railroad in a load of particularly draconian amendments to the #PolicingBill, last minute. They are falling like dominoes in the Lords. A good moment for human rights and civil liberties in the UK and a push back against the authoritarian tide.
-
✔️It’s vital that Members of the House of Commons now accept these changes, which help safeguard our protest rights and mitigate some of the worst parts of this #PolicingBill.
-
🚨Breaking🚨
Members of the House of Lords have voted to REMOVE measures from the #PolicingBill which would allow the police to limit protests where they are deemed to be too noisy AND measures that would give police more power to curtail static assemblies.
-
🚨The House of Lords is now debating the draconian #PolicingBill at Report stage.
Rushed amendments to this Bill seek to STOP some citizens from taking part in protests altogether.
❌These unprecedented measures need to be quashed.
-
Members of the House of Lords will vote to amend the draconian #PolicingBill at Report Stage today.
🪧 Exercising your right to protest should NEVER be a crime
🚨 Peers MUST safeguard our rights & strip out these damaging anti-protest measures

❗Next Monday, members of the House of Lords have an opportunity to stop the Government from making the draconian #PolicingBill even worse.
Will @UKLabour confirm that they will vote against the Government’s rights-altering new proposals?

⚠️'The govt's move to add Orwellian anti-protest amendments to the #PolicingBill at this late stage is a cynical attempt to bypass parliamentary scrutiny' @Mark_AJohnson
It is vital that all opposition parties vote against these new amendments.

I just signed this #petition against the UK government's dangerous new #PolicingBill. You can addyour name here: https://action.libertyhumanrights.org.uk/page/78339/petition/1

Amendments to the #PolicingBill are being railroaded in at the last minute, including:
⚠️ Stop & search for protesters *without* suspicion
⚠️ Stripping people from their right to protest
These draconian measures must be stopped!

Govnt’s amendments to the #PolicingBill take this legislation from bad to worse.
Allowing officers to stop & search protesters “without suspicion” treats those exercising their fundamental rights as criminals.
This is a grave threat to our democracy.
-
⚠️ The Govnt's #PolicingBill creates a new "public nuisance offence". The offence includes where an individual risks causing another person to suffer "disease".
This will be used to arbitrarily arrest protesters and violate civil liberties. It must be removed from the Bill.
-
Members of the House of Lords are expected to begin scrutiny of Part 3 of the #PolicingBill in Parliament today.
⚠️The Bill poses a critical threat to protest rights in the UK.
You can read our briefing on Part 3 of the Bill here:

⚠️Tomorrow, the Government's #PolicingBill will enter the Lords for its Second Reading.
Provisions in the Bill directly threaten freedom of expression in the UK.
We've written to @pritipatel, alongside other groups, telling her to abandon these plans.⤵️
