For all survivors, everywhere. #conversiontherapy has to be banned fully. It harms people’s body, mind and spirit. Peace and love. ❤️🩹 thank you @PatrickStrud
My pastor raped me to try to 'heal' my lesbianism. Boris Johnson must ban all gay 'cures'
Exclusive from @PatrickStrud speaking to a survivor of corrective rape and calling for a complete UK ban on LGBT+ conversion therapy.

Agreed good people need to come forward when they see these incredibly harmful behaviours. We can’t ignore it because of blind loyalties, because of conspiracies or because someone feels redeemed.
'There were people who knew stuff and they stayed silent'
Former chief prosecutor Nazir Afzal told #BBCBreakfast 'we shouldn't be reliant on the victims to keep reporting what happened' after Russell Brand was found guilty of one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault

One of London's most iconic festive sights is back.
Regent Street’s angels are bringing a little extra sparkle to the capital and giving everyone a reason to look up.
Christmas in the capital is officially on its way.

We stand in solidarity with the women who were sexually assaulted and abused by Russell Brand. We hope the public and the judges will do the same!
These women’s testimonies are simply heartbreaking!

ALT Louisa Compton, Director of News, Digital and Audience Trust at Channel 4 said: “The outcome of the Russell Brand trial belongs to all of the women who had the courage to speak out – all of those who participated in the criminal process and those different women who shared their testimony in the original Channel 4 Dispatches and The Sunday Times and The Times investigation. “The trial heard that women involved in the criminal case came forward after seeing the Channel 4 Dispatches film. It is a powerful demonstration of why fearless, independent, investigative journalism in the public interest matters. We remain profoundly grateful to every woman who trusted the Channel 4 reporting team.”
I realise that there are people who have no idea how very hard it is to come forward, when someone has been a victim of rape or sexual assault, from someone who abuses their power. I was struck by how many people would not come forward as a character witness for Brand…..my guess is, they knew. And kudos to one of his former friend who took the stand to be a witness for one of the women. And my heart goes out to the women who came forward to hold Russell Brand to account. bbc.co.uk/news/live/cmde8w42…

Charities like @chooselove and @refugeecouncil do incredible work supporting refugees and people seeking sanctuary.
Fabulous to see @RomeshRang and @SebastianCroft stay faithful to the values so many of us share by donating their winnings to two great charities.
Charities and #CelebrityTraitors are the best of us 👏🏾

The entire £83,000 #CelebrityTraitors prize fund going towards supporting refugees and queer displaced people feels bloody wonderful in such wretched times marked by fearmongering and inhumane politics – even more so knowing there will be many right-wingers enraged by that. ❤️

Sir Patrick Stewart was best known for playing heroes on screen, but one of his bravest acts was telling the truth about his own childhood and speaking up for human rights.
For many years, he stood with Amnesty and spoke openly about the violence his mother suffered at home to support our campaign to stop violence against women. His honesty gave courage to survivors around the world.
Our thoughts are with his wife, family and friends. The best way to honour him is to carry on the fight he believed in. It should appal us all that the scourge of violence against women and girls continues, and Governments must do far more to end it. amn.st/6010BHUwSr
It’s ok to question stuff. It’s ok to have an opinion. It’s ok to question and look at opposing opinions. It’s a good idea that people are thinking…. “You know what, I’m going to get back out there, reconnect……with actual real 3d living people” 😆 See you on Tuesday. #Halloween #CelebrityTraitors #TouchGrass
What a lovely post 🥹
We mourn the passing of Patrick Stewart, who inspired countless individuals at NASA (and beyond) to boldly go where no one has gone before.

I like this. It’s not a soccer/pantomime/American Football match….its about people’s futures. You just have to look at the way Donald treats people, talks about people. And the ripple affect - affects us in the UK too. #midterms

We are facing a crisis of impunity. That's why we built The Rule of Law Project — to investigate unlawful conduct by federal officials, and work with state and local prosecutors to hold them to account.
