A UK court ruled that victims of trafficking and slavery should be allowed to stay in the UK while their asylum claims were heard. Tory ministers secretly decided to disregard that ruling.
To me it seems unjust to make asylum seekers leave the country they are asking for asylum in while their cases are decided. Especially by sending them to a country which is unsafe (Rwanda) by means of a law saying that courts should disregard that country's unsafeness.
US citizens: call on Congress to reject the creation of a "fiscal commission", since that is a scheme to cut Social Security and Medicare.
US citizens: call on Congress not to make new tax cuts for the rich in 2024.

A UK proposal for taxing the wealthy more heavily refers to family with middle-class family incomes, equivalent to $85k per year, as "wealthy".
Using the word "wealthy" with such a low threshold surprises me, and I can understand why people and families with such incomes conclude that "the highest 10% of incomes" is too broad a filter to be defined as "wealthy".
