~40 SWANA region LGBTIQ+ groups call for #CeasefireNow and an end to Israel's #GazaGenocide .

'We stand resolute in forging a future where justice, equity, progress, and liberty are not mere ideals but lived realities for everyone—be it in Palestine or any corner of the globe.'

As of November 2, CPJ has confirmed 35 journalists dead. 30 Palestinian, 4 Israeli, and 1 Lebanese.

This 👇also don’t forget the systemic asymmetries built into the funding system. This chart from the UK research councils about the demographic of PIs and Co-Is demonstrate clearly the completely distorted allocation of research funding.

Visa and settlement costs and health surcharge payments are already extortionate and impossible for immigrant communities. It is an absolute disgrace to hear they might be even higher with the excuse that public sector workers could have a pay rise (as if there is no other way).

Currently, someone applying for a 2.5 year spouse visa with their two children has to pay £10,000 in visa fees.

Under the new proposal, this would be a MIND BLOWING £22,000. For just 2.5 years. That they’ll have to extend once and then make a settlement application.
