It’s been a wild few days in the US Congress.
The highlight: spending some time with the one and only Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
From NYC to LDN, we face the same challenges. We’ve got to do London next @AOC!
In the early hours of this morning, my father tragically passed away after having contracted COVID-19.
Please keep him in your prayers. This virus is taking millions all across the world. Please ISOLATE and listen to medical advice!
إِنَّا لِلّهِ وَإِنَّـا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ
URGENT CALLOUT
We are so close to making history. So close to making Boris Johnson the first PM to lose his own seat. But we need more volunteers!
Come out to Uxbridge in the last hours:
📍 Uxbridge HQ: Friends Meeting House, Corner of Belmont Road and York Rd, UB8 1QW
So @owenjones84 does more in 2 minutes than some in the British Press have done for weeks. Boris Johnson is dangerous. He is a charlatan, a serial liar and will be the worst PM in our countries history.
There is still time to stop him.
I’m sorry we couldn’t give you the result you deserved.
To each and everyone of the activist who joined us on this journey: thank you so much.
We are building a new world. It may not have come today, but it is coming. Don’t lose hope.
When our economy was crashed by reckless bankers and billionaires in ‘08, my family, community and generation paid the price with a decade of heartless austerity.
None of you called that a class war.
Now the wealthiest are asked to contribute a little more and all of a sudden..
Remember, that Jeremy Clarkson article was not a slip of the tongue or a tweet written in a moment of madness.
It was an article written, read and re-read. It was seen by multiple editors and copywriters. All of whom must have thought, “this is okay.”
This is a *media* problem.
So @BorisJohnson has said he will not attending the local hustings in Uxbridge & South Ruislip and it has therefore been cancelled.
Local hustings are a vital part of our democracy. Every resident deserves the chance to hear from ALL their candidates and ask questions.
😡😡😡
Imagine being 26 and having experienced:
• Trebling of Tuition fees
• End of EMA
• Scrapping Maintenance grants
• Global financial crash
• Era of austerity
• Brexit
• Biggest wage stagnation in decades
• Biggest rise in hate crimes
• Global Pandemic
Running out of spac
Interestingly, I haven’t had a single media request on a mosque being literally set on fire today.
But I had 7 on first-cousin marriages last week.
