The third in @guardian's horrifying Base Justice investigation - repeated instances of US military, based at Lakenheath airbase, carrying out acts of sexual violence against women on UK soil, but the cases being handled by (questionable) US court martial theguardian.com/uk-news/2026…
We've been looking into the disappearance of Lisa Wiese for some time. She went missing seven years ago and her family are waiting on answers. We are continuing to dig - anyone with insights get in touch (details in the article). theguardian.com/uk-news/2026…
What happened to Lisa Wiese? Seven years and a 500 man-strong police raid later, her family are still waiting for answers. A very sad story by @maevemcc. theguardian.com/uk-news/2026…

Important piece from @our_MoH
“It’s remembering as I call it comrades or friends who have been out there – slept out, been through it, been in the homelessness situation. We’re just remembering them.”

🚨Please remember that the alarming rise in "rough sleeper" numbers reported are only the official figures of those who have 'engaged' with outreach services.
