UKIP marched to Downing Street under a Ninth Crusade banner. The Met arrested four counter-protesters and no marchers.

On 29 August 2026 the UK Independence Party marched through central London under the banner of what its leader calls a Ninth Crusade. The Metropolitan Police imposed Public Order Act conditions, moving it off Edgware Road and routing it from Hyde Park Corner through Piccadilly, St James's Street, Pall Mall and Whitehall to Downing Street. About twenty people marched, against around one hundred and fifty counter-protesters. Four people were arrested that day and all four were counter-protesters. Not one marcher. The party is not coy about its subject: its leader tours the country holding what he calls crusades, says Muslims who have not integrated must be deported, and his supporters have carried placards reading 'Islamist invaders not welcome in Britain'. Criticism of Islam is protected and must stay protected. Section 29J of the Public Order Act 1986 expressly covers discussion, criticism, ridicule, insult and abuse of religions and of their adherents' beliefs, and this campaign asks for none of that to change. But section 29J construes the stirring up offences in Part 3A only. Sections 4A and 5 of the same Act cover threatening or abusive words directed at people who are present, and section 31 of the Crime and Disorder Act 1998 makes them religiously aggravated offences where hostility to a religious group is demonstrated or forms part of the motive, with no Attorney General consent required. In 2025 a man was convicted on exactly that basis for burning a Koran in public while declaring Islam a religion of terrorism. So the line is not between speech people like and speech they do not. It is between attacking a set of beliefs, which is lawful, and abusing the people who hold them in order to frighten them, which is not. No force has published where it draws that line. In December 2025 the Metropolitan Police announced publicly that it would be more assertive about chants at protests and arrests followed; we have questioned how that power has been used and we are not asking for it to be extended, only pointing out that a threshold can evidently be published when the force decides to publish one. This campaign writes to your MP, to MOPAC and the Mayor of London, to the Metropolitan Police and to the Home Secretary, asking each to publish the standard applied to anti-Muslim chants and placards at demonstrations, to say what assessment was made of UKIP's published material before the march, and to say how many religiously aggravated offences involving hostility towards Muslims have been recorded at demonstrations. It asks for no new offence, no new police power and no restriction on the right to criticise any religion.

Cllr Owain Clatworthy told 343,000 people Britain is being 'Islamified'. Report him to the Ombudsman.

On 30 August 2026 Councillor Owain Clatworthy of Bridgend County Borough Council pinned a post to his verified X account, under the display name 'Cllr Owain Clatworthy', saying that 'Britain is being Islamified'. He told readers to 'walk through Cardiff, Rochdale, Blackburn, Luton, parts of Birmingham, Bradford and large stretches of East London', wrote that 'It is not “multiculturalism.” It is one culture. Islam', that 'British families have been pushed out', and closed 'I will not sit back and watch this country become something else. Neither should you.' It has been viewed more than 343,000 times and it is still pinned. The Welsh Model Code of Conduct binds him: paragraph 6(1)(a) forbids conduct that could reasonably be regarded as bringing his office or his authority into disrepute, and paragraph 2(1)(d) applies that at all times and in any capacity, so posting as a private citizen does not reach it; paragraph 4(a) requires due regard to equality of opportunity for all people regardless of religion, which it names expressly. It is not abstract: he sits on the council's Corporate Parenting Committee, responsible for looked after children including children who are asylum seekers, and Bridgend's Deputy Leader Councillor Jane Gebbie has already said his public statements 'risk undermining confidence that every child will be regarded equally'. This campaign takes three actions in one click. It prepares a code of conduct complaint to the Public Services Ombudsman for Wales in your own words, with the dated evidence screenshot, for you to read and submit yourself, because the Ombudsman's declaration is yours alone to sign. It sends a letter to Kelly Watson, the council's statutory Monitoring Officer, asking her to log it for local resolution or the Standards Committee. And it writes to the Leader and Deputy Leader about the two things within their gift: his seat on the Corporate Parenting Committee, and what the council is willing to say in its own name. The complaint concedes that a councillor may argue for restrictive immigration policy and may criticise multiculturalism as a policy, because that concession is what separates it from a political disagreement the Ombudsman would dismiss.

The Board of Deputies is helping write antisemitism lessons for Catholic schools. It spent years demanding the definition its own drafter says silences Israel's critics.

In late July 2026 the Department for Education awarded £100,000 from its Tackling Antisemitism in Education Innovation Fund to the Board of Deputies of British Jews, working with the Catholic Education Service and the Archdiocese of Birmingham, to produce antisemitism teaching resources for Catholic secondary schools, a pilot positioned for national roll-out across the 241 schools and colleges of England's largest diocese. Children should be taught to recognise and reject antisemitism. The problem is the definition: none of the published announcements says which one the children will be taught, and the Board of Deputies has campaigned for years for the IHRA working definition, demanding its 'full and unconditional adoption'. Seven of the eleven examples that accompany that definition concern the State of Israel, its lead drafter Kenneth Stern told the US Congress in 2017 that it is used to suppress lawful political speech, and more than two hundred scholars wrote the Jerusalem Declaration on Antisemitism in 2021 as an alternative because of that record. The stakes are concrete: in September 2025 the UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry concluded that Israel has committed genocide in Gaza, and on 17 July 2025 an Israeli strike hit Holy Family church in Gaza City, killing Saad Salama, Foumia Ayyad and Najwa Abu Daoud and wounding the parish priest. Under the IHRA definition as applied in practice, a teacher or pupil who states those facts could be labelled antisemitic in a Catholic classroom, and schools carry statutory duties of political balance under sections 406 and 407 of the Education Act 1996. In one click this campaign sends a personalised letter to Archbishop Bernard Longley and his secretariat, the Birmingham Diocesan Education Service, the Catholic Education Service and its Chairman Bishop Marcus Stock, asking each to guarantee the resources will not adopt the IHRA definition, to bring in Jewish organisations the Board does not speak for, to publish the materials before they enter any classroom, or to decline the funding. It also drafts a representation for the Department for Education's own contact form for you to submit yourself. Run in partnership with Christians for Palestine.

Sacha Baron Cohen retired Ali G. Amazon revived the caricature. Cinemas can refuse it.

Ali G: Who Iz I?, written, directed and produced by and starring Sacha Baron Cohen for Amazon MGM Studios, opens in cinemas on 23 October 2026, with Sony Pictures distributing internationally. Sony Pictures UK is selling it with the line 'He iz back. We ain't liable.' The character is a white comedian's caricature of Black British street culture, and the communities imitated said so from the start: the Guardian reported Black British comedians' verdict under the headline 'Comics find Ali G is an alibi for racism' in January 2000, Felix Dexter said the act lets 'the liberal middle classes laugh at black street culture' in comfort, and Jeanette Winterson asked what separates it from the Black and White Minstrels. The catalogue behind it drew the same complaint from Kazakh and Arab communities over Borat and The Dictator, in letters to Amazon and the film academies that this campaign quotes. Baron Cohen retired the character himself in December 2007. Studios sell films, but cinemas choose them, and no film is owed a screen. This campaign sends a personalised letter, in your name, to the booking, guest-relations and press desks of major cinema chains in the UK, the US, Canada, Australia, Europe, Mexico and the Middle East, every address verified on the chain's own official site, asking each chain to leave the film off its screens, to publish its reasoning if it screens it anyway, and to reply stating its position. Chains in non-English markets receive a hand-written letter in their own language. Picturehouse Cinemas has already responded: it is not planning to screen the film, so Picturehouse no longer receives letters and the campaign continues with the chains that have yet to answer. The campaign now also writes to the BBFC, the body that must certify the film before UK cinemas can show it, asking it to apply its own discrimination guidelines to the classification decision and publish its reasoning; past participants can send just that one new letter.

The Mail printed a psychiatrist's guess at Jason Arday's mind. Hours later he was found dead.

Jason Arday resigned from Cambridge on 5 August 2026 writing that he had reached 'the limits of what any person should reasonably be expected to endure'. The national press answered with at least 188 further articles in nine days, by our census of fifteen outlets. On 14 August he was found dead at his home in Battersea, aged 41; his death is with the coroner and this campaign makes no claim about its cause. It holds five publications to account for what is on the record. At 1:01am on the day he died the Daily Mail published a column headlined with the promise of 'one condition that could explain everything', although its own text admits the author had never met him and had 'no idea what has been going on in his mind'. At 3:11pm the Telegraph published its interrogation of his childhood disability, one minute before the London Ambulance Service called the police from his home. At 6:12pm The Times published a column mocking him, three hours after the ambulance call, then deleted it without a word once the death became public. The Sun ignored the story until the humiliation began. The Spectator made him its cover story and ran 21 pieces in 21 days, releasing a podcast titled 'It's a cesspool!' on the morning he died. Two days before he died, The Guardian headlined a year-below YouTuber's 'always cracking jokes' quote over two named classmates and the school's own adult helper who supported his account, and framed the supporting statements as 'organised' by Arday. This campaign is multi-pronged: a formal IPSO Editors' Code Clause 1 complaint against each of the five IPSO members, anchored to a specific dated article, plus a direct letter to each editor at the publication's own complaints address, plus four questions The Guardian's readers' editor (its own regulator; it never joined IPSO) must answer on the record. Eleven actions, one click. Complaints are filed, not upheld. Full census: newscord.org/editorials/jason-arday-pile-on

Six of one family burnt alive in Gaza. The BBC wrote it so that nobody did it.

On 21 July the BBC reported twelve people killed by Israeli strikes in Gaza, six of them from one family: Firas al-Masri, his wife Salsabeel, and their four children Faryal, Salma, Amira and Naim, burnt to death in their home in Gaza City. Read the sentence the BBC wrote about it and there is nobody in it who burnt them. Then read the two sentences that sit side by side two paragraphs later. The 1,168 Palestinians killed since the 'ceasefire' are 'according to Gaza's Hamas-run health ministry'. The four Israeli soldiers killed in the same period are simply stated, in the BBC's own voice, with no source at all, although that figure comes from the Israeli military. Both sides' numbers come from a party to the conflict. Only one side's are treated as a claim. This is the twenty-second month of Israel's genocide in Gaza being reported so that the killing has no author and the Palestinian dead are always in doubt. There are four separate breaches in that one passage, so we give each person one of them: a complaint listing four faults gets a single reply brushing off all four, while four complaints raising one fault each have to be answered one at a time. Every quote is scored and annotated in our Media Watchdog analysis of the article. Complaints are filed, not upheld; no BBC or Ofcom finding has been made.

Protect fearless defence advocacy. Stop contempt becoming a disciplinary shortcut.

Rajiv Menon KC faces contempt proceedings over words spoken in a criminal defence closing speech in R v Head and others on 8 January 2026. No one has found him guilty of contempt. The first route taken against him was set aside by the Court of Appeal on 12 May 2026 on jurisdictional grounds. Mr Justice Johnson referred the matter to the Presiding Judge on 22 June 2026, and proceedings were instituted on 29 June 2026, with a hearing listed for 28 July 2026. Garden Court Chambers has described the proceedings as unprecedented, and the Bar Council has warned that proceedings of this kind may have a chilling effect on the profession. This campaign sends carefully framed letters to the Attorney General, your MP and the Bar Council, with optional routes to the Justice Committee and the Lord Chancellor, asking for public-interest review, safeguards and guidance without asking anyone to interfere with judicial decision making.

A mosque is attacked in Britain every five days. The Government's £40m has not arrived.

On 22 July 2026 the British Muslim Trust, the organisation the Government appointed to monitor anti-Muslim hate, counted 70 attacks on mosques and Muslim places of worship in twelve months, one every five days, nine of them in London, with a single Birmingham mosque attacked three times. It also says the money is not reaching mosques: they wait months for the £40 million security scheme, some as long as 18 months, and applications are refused with no reason given. The eleven weeks from late April to mid July were the sharpest stretch of that year. There were at least nine documented attacks, plots and threats against Muslims in Britain and Ireland: Ishmail Hussein stabbed at his home in Southwark on the morning of the Golders Green attack; a family home in Blackburn firebombed with children inside; five people wounded in Edinburgh, two of them leaving prayers at Broomhouse Mosque; the Al Madinah Hall in Dublin set alight in daylight; a worshipper beaten outside the Noor Ul Islam Mosque in Leyton; a replica mosque burned on a bonfire in Moygashel under a sign reading 'end the threat of radical Islam'; twelve arrests over a far-right terror threat to the 15,000-strong UK Ijtima festival in Suffolk, three on suspicion of conspiracy to murder; an emailed bomb threat to a 450-pupil Birmingham school on the last day of term; and a 14-year-old charged over an alleged plot to attack two mosques in Sutton. After Golders Green the state rightly declared a terrorist incident within hours, raised the threat level to severe, and announced more than £250 million over three years. For this wave: no COBR announcement, no new money, and, by our published census, eleven times less coverage in the first 72 hours (at least 387 articles against 34). This campaign sends a personalised letter to your MP demanding equal protection and publication of how many mosque security applications have been received, approved, refused and actually paid; a formal BBC complaint on the coverage pattern and the 8 July Leyton headline; and a reader letter to eight national newsdesks, in one go. Every demand is for parity, never for the reduction of any other community's protection; all charges are allegations until decided by the courts.

Palantir's NHS contract has a break clause. The new Prime Minister decides by December.

The Government must decide by December 2026 whether to keep NHS England's £330m Federated Data Platform contract with Palantir; the break clause is exercisable in February 2027 and the Health and Social Care Committee has already recommended termination. A July 2026 investigation by Peter Geoghegan and Lucas Amin (Democracy for Sale / London Review of Books, with a Guardian comment piece on 15 July) found that 52 of the 139 trusts recorded as live on the platform used none of its applications in a year, that the flagship Cancer 360 tool ran in just six trusts, that the UK Statistics Authority is investigating NHS England's public claims about the platform's benefits, and that Palantir paid Peter Mandelson's lobbying firm Global Counsel more than £30,000 a month from 2018, undeclared as a client until 2022, under the codename 'Project Onion'. The incoming Prime Minister ran Greater Manchester's health data for nine years without a single Palantir contract. This campaign sends a personalised letter to your MP, a scrutiny request to the Health and Social Care Committee and a value for money request to the Public Accounts Committee, then walks you through a sixty-second message to the Prime Minister on Number 10's own contact form: exercise the break clause, replace the platform through open procurement, and publish the decision timetable.

Nine killed, a child among them. The BBC's headline said 'police post'.

On 14 July 2026 BBC News online reported nine people killed by Israeli fire in Gaza in one day: seven at a police post near a busy market in Jabalia, a woman among them; a man in Khan Younis; and Muataz Abu Shaar, a boy of ten, shot in Rafah while, in his aunt's words, 'sitting in his tent, getting changed'. All of it under the 'ceasefire' in force since October 2025, during Israel's genocide in Gaza. The headline said only 'Israeli strike on police post in north Gaza kills seven, officials say': the woman, the man and the child appear nowhere at headline level, while other outlets headlined 'Israeli fire kills nine in Gaza, including a 10-year-old, officials say' the same day. The first sentence branded the police force whose officers were killed 'Hamas-run', a label that attributes no claim but files the dead, and the tens of thousands of Palestinians who staff Gaza's civil institutions, under a UK-proscribed organisation before any evidence is offered. And the Israeli military's justification, that the dead were 'terrorists' and a Hamas battalion's head of military security, ran immediately after the killings with no note that no evidence was provided and that the claims cannot be independently verified, the exact transparency qualifier the BBC attaches to Gaza health ministry figures. This campaign files a formal BBC Stage 1 complaint via the BBC Complaints API, anchored to Editorial Guidelines Section 3 (Accuracy) and Section 4 (Impartiality), with the BBC's stock replies ('headlines should not be read in isolation', qualifiers are 'for transparency') answered in advance. Complaints are filed, not upheld; no BBC or Ofcom finding has been made.

The doctors' union stood up to the IHRA definition. Back them before 15 July.

At its Annual Representative Meeting in Brighton in June 2026, the British Medical Association passed motions 22, 27, 28, 29 and 55 and Emergency Motion 2 by large majorities: rejecting the use of the IHRA definition of antisemitism in the NHS, defending doctors' freedom of speech on matters of public conscience, international conflict and humanitarian law, and pausing the implementation of the Lord Mann review, which the government had accepted in full on 4 June 2026. The IHRA definition, made mandatory across the NHS by the government, is one of the main tools used to silence healthcare workers who speak out about Israel's genocide in Gaza. The BMA is now under organised pressure to walk these motions back, and institutions hear from their critics constantly and from their supporters almost never. This campaign sends one personalised letter of support to seven BMA leadership inboxes, from the Council secretariat and the Chair of the Representative Body to the Medical Ethics Committee and the EDI Advisory Group, thanking the association and urging it to hold firm and implement the motions. The letter's opening adapts to who you are, from your own answers and never invented: an NHS doctor, a BMA member with your membership number, a UK resident who uses the NHS, or a concerned individual. Deadline: Tuesday 15 July 2026.

He told millions Dunblane was 'one murder'. It was sixteen children and their teacher.

On 8 July 2026, Rupert Lowe MP told The Joe Rogan Experience, the world's largest podcast, that over 250,000 British girls were raped by Muslim men, that 'the Hadiths' describe women as meat, and that handguns were banned because of 'one murder' at Dunblane. None of it survives contact with the record: the 250,000 figure was never counted (it is a 2018 Lords extrapolation from one town, rejected by Full Fact and The Journal, and the 2022 national inquiry concluded the true scale is 'simply not possible to know'); no hadith calls women meat (the phrase traces to a single 2006 sermon that British Muslims condemned at the time); and Dunblane was sixteen children and their teacher, Gwen Mayor, murdered on 13 March 1996. Three days after his report was published, five Muslim men were attacked in Edinburgh by a man reportedly shouting that he was protecting the country from Muslims raping children; on 7 July a worshipper was assaulted outside the Noor Ul Islam Mosque in Leyton; Tell MAMA logged a record 6,313 anti-Muslim hate cases in 2024, up 165 percent in two years. This campaign sends one letter to your own MP, looked up from your postcode and tailored automatically to their public record, asking them to correct the 250,000 figure on the record, protect places of worship, and apply emergency response protocols, including COBR, with equal urgency to every community targeted by hatred. Constituents in Great Yarmouth write directly to Mr Lowe with four corrections, including publishing the accounts of an inquiry that raised over £760,000 from 22,000 donors on a written promise of transparency that has not yet been kept. No regulator or committee has ruled on these statements; the letters ask for corrections and equal protection.

The BBC reported Israel's denial as fact. It didn't tell you Israel gave no evidence.

On 6 July 2026 the BBC reported that the Israel Prison Service rejected as false the account of detained Gaza doctor Dr Hussam Abu Safiya's mistreatment, in an online article (c07yy3pgrlmo) and in a BBC News channel broadcast at around 14:45, without noting that Israel provided no evidence for its denial and that it cannot be independently verified. The BBC applies exactly that transparency qualifier to the other party, telling audiences that Gaza casualty figures come from a Hamas-run health ministry and cannot be independently verified, and defending that practice on the ground that audiences are entitled to know the source of a claim and the limits on its verification. This campaign files two formal BBC Stage 1 complaints via the BBC Complaints API, one on the article and one on the broadcast, each anchored to BBC Editorial Guidelines Section 3 (Accuracy) and Section 4 (Impartiality), asking only that the Israeli denial carry the same plain qualifier the BBC applies to the other side: that no evidence was provided and that it cannot be independently verified. Complaints are filed, not upheld; no BBC or Ofcom finding has been made.

Trump phoned FIFA, and Balogun's ban vanished. Quansah got no such call.

At the 2026 World Cup, United States forward Folarin Balogun was sent off against Bosnia and Herzegovina after a VAR review, which carried an automatic one-match suspension under Article 66 of the FIFA Disciplinary Code. United States President Donald Trump then publicly confirmed that he telephoned FIFA President Gianni Infantino to ask for a review, saying he asked for a review because he did not think it was a foul. Within days, FIFA's Disciplinary Committee suspended the implementation of Balogun's automatic ban under Article 27, placing him on a one-year probation and making him available to face Belgium. UEFA called the decision unprecedented, incomprehensible and unjustifiable, and said it crossed a red line. Belgium's challenge was rejected as inadmissible because Belgium was not a party to the proceedings, after being given only hours to respond. By contrast, England defender Jarell Quansah was sent off for a comparable VAR-confirmed challenge against Mexico in the same round of the same tournament, and is serving the standard automatic one-match ban, with no Article 27 relief and no head of state intervening. The concern is not that Article 27 exists. It is that Article 27 contains no published criteria for when it may be applied, and that this criteria-free discretion was exercised within days of an admitted call from a head of state about a live case, which is exactly the appearance FIFA's own Code of Ethics (Articles 13 and 14) and Statutes (Articles 15 and 52) exist to prevent. This campaign files a complaint with FIFA's own compliance portal, in one action, asking FIFA to publish the reasoned Article 27 decision, refer President Infantino's conduct to the independent Ethics Committee, adopt binding published criteria for Article 27 that bar its use after government contact, and guarantee equal treatment for Quansah and every comparable case or rescind the Balogun relief.

Britain's biggest arms fair runs on caterers, florists and freight. Tell its suppliers to drop it.

From 20 to 24 July 2026, Farnborough International Airshow hosts one of the world's largest arms and aerospace trade fairs, where the biggest weapons companies meet buyers and sign deals. Among the exhibitors are the Israeli firms Elbit Systems and Israel Aerospace Industries; Elbit supplies around 85 per cent of the drones the Israeli military uses in Gaza, where a United Nations Commission of Inquiry has found Israel to be committing genocide. The fair cannot run without the independent firms that cater it, dress it with flowers and move its stands into the halls.

Their own members voted to suspend Israel. Now the FAI plans to play them.

The Republic of Ireland men's team is scheduled to play Israel twice in the 2026-27 UEFA Nations League: on 27 September in Debrecen, Hungary, and on 4 October in Backa Topola, Serbia. In November 2025 the FAI's own General Assembly voted 74 to 7, on a motion brought by Bohemian FC, to formally request that UEFA suspend the Israel Football Association for breach of UEFA statutes. UEFA has not acted, and the FAI Board has told members it intends to fulfil both fixtures, warning of forfeits and financial losses; more than one tenth of its members triggered an Extraordinary General Meeting, convened for 8 July 2026, to challenge that position. The October 'home' game cannot even be staged in Ireland: at the FAI's own request it will be played behind closed doors in Serbia, with season ticket holders compensated. In February 2022 FIFA and UEFA suspended all Russian teams within four days of the invasion of Ukraine, a decision upheld by the Court of Arbitration for Sport, and it was the refusal of national associations to take the field against Russia that made that suspension unavoidable. This campaign sends, in one click and with each channel optional, a representation to the FAI Board via the governance and reception inboxes published in the FAI's own Customer Service Charter, and prepares a shorter representation for the FAI's official contact form, asking the Board to decline the fixtures, stand by the mandate of its members, and press UEFA publicly to act on the suspension request the General Assembly instructed it to make.

FIFA banned Russia in four days. Israel has killed 567 Palestinian footballers, and FIFA still won't act.

On 29 June 2026 Israeli forces shot dead Saleem al-Ashqar, the 32 year old goalkeeper for Khadamat Khan Younis, in al-Qarara, according to the Palestinian Football Association. He is one of 1,009 people from Palestinian sport the Palestinian FA says Israel has killed since October 2023, 567 of them from football: players, coaches, referees and board members, many of them children. This is happening within a genocide that the United Nations Commission of Inquiry has found Israel to be committing in Gaza. FIFA's own rules are not being applied. Article 64.2 of the FIFA Statutes says no member association may play on the territory of another without its approval, yet at least six Israeli league clubs are based in settlements on occupied Palestinian land, documented by Human Rights Watch in 2016 and Amnesty International in 2026, and in July 2024 the International Court of Justice found Israel's occupation unlawful and its settlements illegal. In January 2024 the Palestinian FA asked FIFA to investigate the destruction of Palestinian football, including seven destroyed stadiums and 288 damaged or destroyed facilities, and it is still waiting. FIFA can act fast when it chooses to: it suspended Russia within four days of its invasion of Ukraine and stripped Indonesia of hosting a tournament for refusing to host an Israeli team. Palestine first moved to suspend Israel in 2015 and again in 2024. In March 2026 FIFA refused all sanctions, calling the West Bank's status an unresolved and highly complex matter, a question the International Court of Justice had already resolved in 2024, and Palestine has appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport. This campaign lets a member of the public file a human rights report with FIFA in one action: we email FIFA's Human Rights Complaints team for you, and we prepare and walk you through a report on FIFA's own official reporting portal. Both ask FIFA to put the 2024 suspension motion to a vote, to enforce Article 64.2 or apply the same standard it applied to Russia, and to publish the legal advice behind its inaction and the independent investigation the Palestinian FA requested in January 2024.

The British Museum made false claims about erasing Palestine. Its own emails prove it.

When the British Museum was caught stripping 'Palestine' from its displays in February 2026, it told the public that 'audience testing' showed the term was 'no longer meaningful'. Internal emails released under Freedom of Information law, published by Middle East Eye on 2 July 2026, show no such testing ever happened: the labels were rewritten within hours of complaints from the Board of Deputies of British Jews, UK Lawyers for Israel and the Anti-Defamation League, against internal advice. The Director's public account is contradicted by his own office's correspondence. We put these findings to the museum and received no response. Send three letters in one click, to the Director and Board of Trustees, the museum's press office, and the Department for Culture, Media and Sport: demand a public correction within 14 days, reinstatement of the four altered displays, publication of the lobby correspondence and an independent review.

CPJ affirmed its definition of a journalist. Good. Now finish the job.

On 1 July 2026 the board of the Committee to Protect Journalists voted to affirm its existing definition of who is a journalist, anchored in international humanitarian law, a definition that includes journalists who work with media affiliated with an armed group. That was the right call, taken under real pressure, and it was the first thing we asked for. It is not quite enough. Affirming the definition on paper does not undo the damage of reopening the question, or prove the definition will be applied fairly from here. This follow-up campaign thanks CPJ's board for affirming the definition, then presses the three demands that remain, in one click to CPJ's board, general and press inboxes: remove Jacob Weisberg as chair of the board, the chair who drove the move to reopen who counts as a journalist; appoint a Palestinian representative to the board; and have an independent international human rights lawyer, working alongside Palestinian representation, review the methodology and every contested removal against the affirmed definition, publish the basis for each, and reinstate any name not supported by clear evidence of direct participation in hostilities. It names no journalist as anything, and routes only through CPJ's own institutional inboxes.

Khan blocked Palantir over London's values. Then Palantir threatened to sue, and he gave it a contract anyway.

On 20 May 2026 the Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime, Kaya Comer-Schwartz, acting for the Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC), blocked the Metropolitan Police's proposed contract with Palantir Technologies for the Unified Operational Analytics platform, worth up to £50m. City Hall gave two reasons: a 'clear and serious breach' of procurement rules (the Met engaged only one supplier, did not put its strategy to the Deputy Mayor for approval, and did not demonstrate value for money), and that public money should not support firms that 'act contrary to London's values', citing Palantir's work with the Israeli military and with US immigration enforcement. Palantir's UK chief executive, Louis Mosley, then attacked the decision in broadcast interviews, accusing the Mayor of 'putting politics over public safety' and leaving the Met 'fighting criminals with their hands tied behind their back'. Palantir's lawyers sent a pre-action letter to MOPAC and the company launched a challenge in the High Court. On or around 24 June 2026, within days of that legal challenge, MOPAC granted Palantir a pilot contract worth about £2m, lasting at least 12 months, while the Met runs a fresh procurement. The company did not change. Palantir's strategic partnership with the Israeli Ministry of Defense, signed in January 2024, supports a military campaign a UN Commission of Inquiry has found to amount to genocide in Gaza, and it still powers US deportation operations. The values City Hall invoked did not change. What changed was that Palantir threatened to sue. This campaign sends, in one click and with each recipient optional, a formal complaint to MOPAC and the Deputy Mayor, a letter to the Mayor of London, and a request to the London Assembly Police and Crime Committee to put the reversal on the public record. It does not allege the contract is unlawful and does not ask anyone to compromise public safety. It demands transparency and consistency: a values test set in London's name should mean something, and not collapse the moment a wealthy supplier threatens court.

Reuters ran Netanyahu's claim as fact. Tell them to attribute the headline.

On 28 June 2026 Reuters published an article headlined 'Israel destroys Hezbollah underground infrastructure in southern Lebanon'. The headline states as established fact a claim that rests entirely on a statement by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The attribution appears only in the first paragraph, behind a paywall, where most readers who see the headline never reach it. Reuters attributes contested operational claims made by other parties to a conflict, and the same standard should apply here; the Israeli government's account of its operations in Lebanon is contested and has, in numerous past instances, not been borne out by independent verification. Because Reuters runs a news wire, the unattributed headline has been republished verbatim by subscribers including Al Arabiya, so the framing travels far beyond Reuters' own page. This campaign files, in one click, a formal Editorial complaint on Reuters' own official liaison contact form, asking that the headline be amended to attribute the claim, at minimum 'Israel says' or 'Netanyahu says', and that the wire correction be applied so subscribers can update it. It is a complaint about headline accuracy and sourcing, not a political objection, and never about any individual journalist.

The Spectator said a UN report has 'no evidence' Israel targeted children. The report says otherwise.

On 24 June 2026 The Spectator published a comment piece by Jonathan Sacerdoti, in its Coffee House section, headlined 'No, Israel isn't deliberately targeting children in Gaza'. It concerns the UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry report 'The essence of childhood has been destroyed' (A/HRC/62/CRP.2, 18 June 2026). The article tells readers, as fact, that the report's weapon findings rest on 'a doctor's guess about which weapon caused a wound', that its material is 'unverified' with 'nothing connecting the dots', and that 'after 94 pages, the Commission cannot produce one' documented case. The report contradicts each: it consulted two independent forensic pathologists with CT scans (paragraph 10), conducted independent forensic analysis in 15 of 17 cases (paragraph 65), used audio ballistic analysis to identify the weapon (paragraph 52), verified thousands of open-source items through cross-referencing and forensic authentication (paragraphs 8 and 10), and documents specific cases including a 10-day-old baby shot in Nuseirat camp on 12 April 2024 and a four-year-old girl shot in Khan Younis on 24 August 2024. This campaign files, in one click, a formal IPSO Editors' Code complaint to The Spectator under Clause 1 (Accuracy), 1(i) and 1(iv).

They dropped the word genocide. Tell the Herald and ABC to correct their headlines.

On 23 June 2026 the United Nations Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory found that Israel's deliberate targeting and killing of Palestinian children amounts to genocide and atrocity crimes in Gaza, alongside war crimes in the West Bank. The United Nations news service led with the word: 'Israel continues to commit genocide, atrocity crimes by deliberately targeting Palestinian children, UN independent commission finds'. Many outlets carried the inquiry's own term in their headlines, including the UN's own news service and Al Jazeera. Two did not. The Herald (Scotland) ran 'UN committee finds Israel targeted Palestinian children'. ABC News (Australia) ran 'UN inquiry accuses Israel of deliberately targeting and killing Palestinian children'. Both report the lesser element, that children were targeted, and drop the finding that gives the targeting its legal meaning: genocide. This campaign sends, in one click and with each recipient optional, a direct accuracy correction request by email to the Herald, and a representation prepared for the ABC's official audience feedback form, anchored to the ABC Code of Practice.

26 testimonies. Who protected the protesters at the Edgware demonstration?

On 14 June 2026, an event marketing property in illegal Israeli settlements went ahead under police protection at a venue in Edgware, NW London. The protest outside it was co-organised by Jewish groups including Jewish Bloc for Palestine UK. The New Arab's on-scene reporter described counter-protesters crossing the road to attack peaceful demonstrators, shouting, shoving and hitting them, and appearing to target visibly Jewish pro-Palestine men. Demonstrators have since given 26 accounts of sexual harassment and physical and verbal abuse, and describe a policing response that failed to protect them while force was directed at peaceful demonstrators. The Met confirmed 14 arrests. This companion to the media-and-trade campaign sends, in one click and with each recipient optional: a request to MOPAC (which holds the Met to account) to commission an independent review and refer the operation to the IOPC, a concern to the IOPC, and a concern to the EHRC about the equality and human rights duties engaged.

She spoke up for another prisoner. Then Bronzefield put her in segregation and denied her medicine.

Joy Gnapi is held at HMP Bronzefield, the women's prison in Surrey operated by Sodexo. After she advocated for a fellow prisoner, Faiza, who was in urgent need of mental health care, Ms Gnapi was segregated from the rest of the prison and held in cellular confinement for 21 days. During that period an officer, Charlyann Dennehy, is alleged to have denied her access to her prescribed medication, mocked her accent, asked why she could not speak English, and remarked that she did not like how big Ms Gnapi's eyes were, before refusing to provide the medication. Withholding prescribed medicine from a person in custody is a risk to their health, and racist abuse of a prisoner is a serious breach of a prison's duty of care. This campaign sends a personalised welfare concern and formal complaint, in one click, to Bronzefield's correspondence and safer custody teams at Sodexo, demanding that Ms Gnapi's medication is restored, that her welfare in segregation is independently assessed, and that the conduct alleged against Officer Dennehy is formally investigated.

On 14 June 2026, 'The Great Israeli Real Estate Event' marketed property in illegal Israeli settlements at Edgware United Synagogue, NW London. The UK Government says these settlements are illegal. Lawyers put ministers, the Met, and the venue on notice; the event went ahead under police protection. Only 95 of 650 MPs have signed Early Day Motion 1266 calling for a trade ban. Three national headlines erased the reason for the protest: the Daily Express called it 'angry protests' and 'police forced to wrestle activists'; The Independent used a withdrawn arrest figure and 'clashes' for a one-sided attack; The Guardian named the event but called it 'rival protests'.

Words the Family Never Said. File a BBC Editorial Guidelines Complaint About the Newry Headline.

On 4 September 2024, BBC News online published an article headlined 'Attack witness ran to her death rather than safety' (article c7v5yn6q15do), about the death of Anu Okusanya, a 46-year-old care worker who had moved from Nigeria to work in Northern Ireland's care sector and who died after fleeing the scene of an attack on another person near her home in Newry during weeks of anti-immigration violence. The headline puts words inside quotation marks that the family never said. The BBC's own article quotes them, 'She thought she was running for her life. Unfortunately she ran into her death', the BBC's own video is headlined 'ran into her death, family say', and the clause 'rather than safety' appears nowhere in the article. The same headline reduces a woman who had been attacked twice before in the same area, who reported both attacks to police, and who 'had to run to protect herself', to a mere 'Attack witness'.

Royal Mail Lists Gaza and the West Bank as Israel. Tell Them to Correct It.

Royal Mail's website and parcel tools categorise Gaza, Khan Yunis and the West Bank as part of Israel, or as a destination in their own right, rather than as Palestine. Its international incident bulletin lists all three under the country heading Israel, with no entry for Palestine; its Parcelforce destination page presents Gaza and Khan Yunis as a destination of its own in Delivery Zone 12; and its send.royalmail.com country selector lists Gaza and Khan Yunis under Israel (a search for Israel returns it as one of two Israel options) and defaults the recipient phone country code to +972, the dialling code for Israel. This is inaccurate: Gaza, Khan Yunis and the West Bank are Palestinian territory, recognised as such by the United Nations and by the United Kingdom, which formally recognised the State of Palestine on 21 September 2025.

On the documented record, masked groups set fire to occupied homes, vehicles and a bus, forced families to flee, and went door to door targeting residents by their race or perceived migrant status; fire crews fielded 256 calls and attended 62 incidents in a single night and police deployed water cannon. The events were described as riots across the political spectrum (the First Minister: 'outright thuggery'; a Belfast MP: 'race-based pogrom') and by the stabbing victim's own family, who called for an end to 'the riots'. GB News reported the violence itself the same night, and a studio guest challenged the denial on air, but it was repeated rather than corrected.

Media Complicity in Covering Israeli War Crimes During Eid Al Adha.

On Eid al-Adha, Netanyahu announced he had ordered Israeli forces to seize 70% of Gaza, an expansion of a military occupation past the 'yellow line' the October ceasefire confined them to, and an occupation the International Court of Justice ruled unlawful on 19 July 2024. Western outlets headlined it as administration: CNN wrote 'take over 70% of Gaza', Reuters wrote 'Expand Gaza Control to 70 Percent', and Sky News wrote 'Israel will move to control 70% of Gaza'. The October ceasefire confined Israeli forces to the 'yellow line' at roughly 53% of the strip, context these headlines strip out. The Independent and the BBC went further, hiding the perpetrator of the same strike: The Independent's 'Gaza mourns 10 killed in Eid strikes as Netanyahu vows wider control of the strip' does not say who killed the 10, while its own first sentence reports they were killed in Israeli strikes, including five children. The BBC's 'Gaza City hospitals say several killed in strike, as Israel targets Hamas leaders' names Israel only as targeting Hamas while leaving the killing agentless, when its own first sentence reports at least 10, including five children, killed in an Israeli strike.

On 28 May 2026, BBC One broadcast a Question Time 'AI special' on the future of artificial intelligence in the UK.

Yet every one of the five panellists was an advocate for, or had a direct stake in, the rollout of AI: a Labour minister championing AI across government, the Conservative technology shadow, a former Google executive and AI author, the Tony Blair Institute (funded by the billionaire Larry Ellison and a prominent lobbyist for AI in government), and the chief executive of Synthesia, a deepfake-technology company.

File an Ofcom Complaint Against Sky News. 'Targeted and Specialist' AI Framing.

A Sky News segment, fronted by the channel's military analyst Professor Michael Clarke, told a UK audience that Israel's AI targeting in Lebanon is 'targeted and specialist'. Three weeks earlier, the Los Angeles Times (Nabih Bulos, 4 May 2026) had published a major investigation on the same class of Israeli AI system that reaches the opposite conclusion: Israel's AI builds target profiles in seconds where the same work previously took hundreds of investigators several weeks, and flags relatives and financiers as combatants because they share communication patterns. An Israeli AI specialist quoted in the article warned the system uses 'data, not logic' and would repeat mistakes 'faster and with more confidence'. +972 Magazine and The Guardian (3 April 2024) report that Israel runs Lavender with an acknowledged 10% error rate, that Israeli analysts spend around 20 seconds reviewing each target, that Lavender flagged up to 37,000 Palestinians as targets, and that Israeli forces used Where's Daddy? to wait for a marked individual to enter their family home before striking. The Washington Post (29 December 2024) reports that Israel built Habsora to 'blast open the human bottleneck' of conventional target generation. The UN Secretary-General is 'deeply troubled'.

8 Western Outlets Covered 'Silenced No More'. None Disclosed What Was Missing.

On 11-12 May 2026, CNN, BBC, Daily Mail, GB News, Washington Post, France 24, Le Monde and NYT all ran the Civil Commission's report. None disclosed the author's documented Harvard misrepresentation, the recycled 'Screams Without Words' witness ecosystem (ZAKA, Shari Mendes, 50+ professors' letter, NYT cutting ties with co-author), or that Kristof's parallel NYT column on Israeli sexual violence against Palestinian detainees ran 24 hours earlier. Send 8 personalised complaints (1 IPSO, 1 BBC API, 6 editorial-standards emails) in one click.

Restore CPJ's definition of a journalist, and remove the board chair who rewrote it.

The Committee to Protect Journalists has changed its definition of who counts as a journalist, and the effect has been to drop Palestinian journalists killed in Gaza from its record. CPJ's board chair, Jacob Weisberg, has been the driving force behind the change. The definition was not CPJ's to change: its own rules, consistent with international humanitarian law, treat a journalist affiliated with an armed non-state actor, even one some governments class as a terrorist group, as a civilian, not a combatant, unless directly participating in hostilities, and CPJ's own database states it found no evidence that the removed journalists were. By the account of CPJ's own former board member Nika Soon-Shiong, the move to reopen who is a journalist followed a 27 May 2026 Washington Free Beacon article that attacked the board as insufficiently pro-Israel; the board member who put her concerns in writing is no longer on the board. This campaign sends, in one click, a formal demand to CPJ's board, general and press inboxes: restore CPJ's own definition and reinstate the journalists removed under the change, remove Jacob Weisberg as chair of the board, appoint a Palestinian representative to the board, and have an independent international human rights lawyer, working alongside Palestinian representation, review and sign off on the methodology. It names no journalist as anything, and routes only through CPJ's own institutional inboxes.

Al-Aqsa is in occupied East Jerusalem, not 'in Israel'. File a BBC accuracy complaint about From Our Own Correspondent.

On 27 June 2026, BBC Radio 4's From Our Own Correspondent introduced a despatch from Jerusalem with the words: 'Today, we're in Israel where the status quo at Jerusalem's holiest site is under threat from Israeli nationalists.' The holiest site is the Al-Aqsa Mosque, on the Haram al-Sharif in the Old City of East Jerusalem. East Jerusalem is occupied territory under international law, and the BBC's own published style guide on Israel and the Palestinians says so: 'Israel has occupied East Jerusalem since 1967. It annexed the area in 1980 and sees it as its exclusive domain. Under international law the area is considered to be occupied territory.' The same guidance tells BBC journalists not to suggest East Jerusalem is part of Israel, and to say it is occupied where relevant. The despatch did the opposite: it located the site 'in Israel' and never once mentioned the occupation, even though the threat to the status quo from Israeli nationalists, its very subject, is inseparable from the occupied status of the site. This campaign files, in one click, a formal BBC Stage 1 complaint via the official BBC Complaints API as a radio broadcast complaint, anchored to Section 3 (Accuracy) and the BBC's own style guide, on two points: locating Al-Aqsa 'in Israel', and omitting the occupation where it was relevant. The complaint addresses the scripting and editorial decision, never any individual presenter, does not cite IPSO (the BBC is not IPSO-regulated), and asks the BBC to apply its own guidance. Complaints are filed, not upheld.

We Demand: The Immediate Release of Global Sumud Flotilla Participants and Full Accountability for Israel's War Crimes

50 civilian boats. 428 participants from 45 countries. Kidnapped in international waters by the Zionist entity. This is how far they will go to hide their crimes and maintain their siege. Pick countries individually (Turkey 88, Spain 44, France 41, Italy 36, Malaysia 29, USA 25, Greece 19, Ireland 15) or select all 45 and we send a personalised email to each country's foreign ministry; for the 9 largest delegations that maintain an embassy inside Occupied Palestine we also send a firmer email to that embassy, demanding the immediate release of every captured national, full accountability for the unlawful seizure of a civilian humanitarian fleet, and concrete steps to end the siege and the genocide.
