One of the tells that children are an extremely vulnerable minority is that you can just casually start hate groups and discrimination campaigns against them and nobody but people who are already fairly far on the left of the political spectrum will see anything inherently wrong with that.

Is this like when we were supposed to celebrate rishi, preeti and Sue Ellen for being brown oppressors instead of white ones

Burnham’s cabinet is the first to achieve gender parity. And the Office for Equality and Opportunity will move to the MHCLG with Bridget Phillipson remaining in post as Minister for Women and Equalities. Here’s our IfG breakdown of what yesterday’s announcements mean for women in government … 🧵

"Literature, in the Prairieland case, was turned into a vector of criminalization. In the hands of a prosecutor, the fact that a book or a zine can be passed from reader to reader became the accumulating elements of a criminal conspiracy."

“My brother is just a vessel. It’s like they have to have a body to put in jail. And unfortunately, that happens to be my brother.” Much more here from Ana Bell, brother of Prairieland defendant Daniel “Des” Sanchez Estrada, who spoke with me not long after the anniversary of her brother’s arrest:

Folks, I'm begging you. "They can be useful to people with disabilities though!" Yes they can, which is why we should heavily regulate them. A wearable designed to help the deaf hear or partially visually impaired people see absolutely doesn't need video recording or Facebook-linked facial ID!

Funny how quick they banned social media for kids but let these glasses run wild. I thought we already decided they were creepy as hell back when Google glasses came out??

Look, on the one hand they allow perverts to covertly film your children and upload the footage to pedophelia forums. On the other hand, they can save someone half a second by projecting in front of them information they'd otherwise have to glance at their phone to get. What's a regulator to do?!

Election Night 2029; Kier Starmer in his basement office in the Tel Aviv branch of the Tony Blair institute, three IPAs in, refreshing the Guardian homepage to see if Corbyn lost his seat

Our country needs a bold change of direction. Starmer lost the confidence of the country because of his abject failure to challenge the power and wealth of an establishment which has taken for themselves while leaving the vast majority in a cost of living crisis. (1/5)

Having overseen a massive rollback of human rights, it does feel petty for Starmer to talk about Labour having been "morally bankrupt". especially after calling human rights' supporters "extremists" and a Home Sec who told refugee rights advocates to "fuck off". www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...
