@thetradesclub Hello, I have one ticket for Michael Head tonight. Sadly been struck down with a virus of some sort and can't make it. Tried to give it away on social media but no takers so far, do you know anyone who might be glad of it? Don't want money, just a good home.

Mohammad could be executed any day for joining protests in #Iran. But a massive global outcry could help save his life and shine a spotlight on the horrific pace of executions in the country. Sign and share now! #SaveMohammadJavad secure.avaaz.org/campaign/en…

@bbcfivelive Let’s also not forget that the Suffragettes had to upset a lot of people in order to secure the vote for women.

@bbcfivelive Dismayed at the lack of balance in the piece about the threat of protest at the F1. Adrian, you allowed speaker to portray protesters as evil law breakers. Just Stop Oil might not always be good at winning friends but they are trying to save our planet.

Every time I think 'what's the point?', 'what will it achieve?', I remind myself of this.

"This is not a free country when we do not have the right to freely protest"
Police arrest peaceful anti-monarchy protesters & have erected giant barriers to osbcure pro-republic banners. Right to freely protest suppressed. Shame!

As an alternative to the national anthem at Anfield, how about a rousing chorus of Oh Jeremy Corbyn? @jeremycorbyn #Coronation
On the train heading up to Anfield for Liverpool v Brentford. Should be an interesting afternoon! 👍

While the UK celebrates a new monarch, they may also wish to mourn the passing of a democracy. #Coronation theguardian.com/uk-news/2023…

Mike McCartney sings praises of All Together NOW, the publication providing information and inspiration in equal measure to anybody affected by disability, health or age-related issues. A retweet would be just lovely. @ATNnews #health #Disability #Ageing

Charitable newspaper All Together Now provides a vital service to readers on matters of disability, age and ill health. Shortlisted for an award, winning would bring much needed funds. If you can spare a minute, please vote – this has link to voting form: alltogethernow.org.uk/all-to…
