Worth noting that the Title IX rules that were rescinded didn't include protections for trans student athletes, because Biden withdrew that part on his way out of office. That didn't stop McMahon from framing it that way though.

Tom Carter@thcarter123.bsky.social · 19h agoLeonard Leo & his Supreme Court Catholic Integralists are guided by 13th Century medieval law. “All truth passes through three stages: First, it is ridiculed; Second, it is violently opposed; and Third, it is accepted as self-evident.” ― Arthur Schopenhauer
Kind of wild that we are in a Common Travel Area with a country that has self-ID and no bathroom bans when you think about it
A few minutes ago I switched on Five Live to hear Wes Streeting giving a bloviating speech about terrorism and how we were strong friends of the USA blah blah and then Five Live cut it saying we'll cut back to this when he says anything important and went back to discussing the Man City situation.
Absolutely. My bill has doubled, presumably to pay interest on debts that should never have been run up, and some of which was dumped on #ThamesWater from other companies before being sold on. Households should be compensated for this.
Zack Polanski@zackpolanski.bsky.social · 2d agoLabour already have a huge majority. Another Labour MP putting Thames Water "on notice" isn't going to lower our water bills or protect our rivers. Nationalise Thames Water. Vote Green on October 8th. 💚
Tom Carter@thcarter123.bsky.social · 2d agoWith every Leonard Leo/Roberts Court ruling there is a flood of columns from legal pundits. OMG - the court is rogue, incomprehensible, not originalist, arbitrary etc. Miss the medieval Catholic faith driven rulings and you miss the story. medium.com/@thcarter123...
Things got better in the early 20thC because our rulers were piss scared of the Soviet Union. Not scared that the USSR would take over, scared that workers in the West would copy it. So they bribed us, and things got better... until the threat disappeared. Now they are free to rob us blind again.
This is where the UK government is different. It hosts international LGBTQ+ rights conferences and preaches to other nations about human rights, while annihilating trans people from public life, at home.
Peter Tatchell Foundation@petertatchellfdn.bsky.social · 4d agoRaids at home. Anti-LGBT+ rhetoric at the UN 🌈 Erdoğan’s government is presenting its “family values” agenda internationally while LGBT+ people face growing state pressure in Turkey The UN must challenge persecution, not legitimise it
There are no gender criticals. Only TRANSgender criticals.

Samantha Asumadu@samanthaasumadu.substack.com · 6d agoSo I think maybe I just figured out why @timeshighered.bsky.social has not reported anything negative about James Orr. I could very well be wrong, but here we go: In 2024, THE signed an agreement with Hungary's Culture and Innovation Ministry which oversees Hungarian higher education..
if "electable" means "we have to let some people die" then yeah sorry i don't want an electable candidate, and i'm starting to suspect there's something deeply sick about the very idea of "electability" since it only ever seems to come up when an inconvenient minority group is on the chopping block.

The Establishment's attitude to suicide is to cut off access to painless methods but not to look into what is driving people to want to kill themselves. When there is evidence, as with trans children denied treatment, this is seen as embarrassment to be glossed over. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Fifteen journalists led the Arday coverage. Between them they wrote 93 articles about a Black Cambridge professor accused of copying other people's work. Not one of them wrote a sentence about a Cambridge academic under police investigation for how a political party was funded.
This thing about a "complex situation" reminds me of liberals washing their hands of the war of persecution on trans people by calling it a #ToxicDebate #Rhetoric youtube.com/shorts/z8hxH...

Well spotted. Who else are they planning to "protect women" from?
Emmy D@emmydee50.bsky.social · last wk.So the UK Supreme Court having statemented trans women as biological men, and Phillipson’s EHRC having advised it and reinforced the decision, and SM doing its thing, Phillipson broadcasts that all women are at risk from men. Anyone else have the heebie jeebies about what happens in any new laws?
