Half of Rotherham's riot arrests had already been reported for domestic abuse – is enough being done to de-escalate before violence occurs?

We're very focused on our campaign against Palantir in the NHS but we can take a break to observe Trans Day of Visibility! Some of us working on the campaign are trans ourselves and allies.

If you're trans and in South Yorkshire, we'll boost your stuff!
