No one should face exclusion or discrimination because of who they are. The Green Party stands in solidarity with the trans community and will keep fighting for equality that includes everyone.

Pagan, gothic, hippy, cat person. I am neurodivergent and disabled. I believe in human rights, respecting the natural environment and making the world a better place. I do not tolerate the far right or fascists. Member of the Scottish Greens.
High-stakes exams are not a fair way of evaluating young people's ability. One bad day, an illness, or challenges beyond their control can ruin a year of work. Scottish Greens want to build a fairer, more modern system built around continuous assessment.
Nothing could be more damaging to our climate and the future of the North East than offering up even more of our North Sea to oil and gas giants. To create well-paid, long-term jobs in the North East and tackle the climate emergency, we must invest in renewables.
"Ignoring extreme heat and raging fires isn't just complacency. It's a dereliction of duty." Experts warn the climate crisis is already costing lives and urgent action from the Government is needed.
Damaging new guidance from the EHRC will shut out Trans people from daily life simply for existing, and anyone who doesn't conform to narrow ideas of how people should look could face suspicion and confrontation. We are taking a stand against this attack on human rights.
This is what climate failure looks like. Nature, homes and livelihoods are being destroyed. The Government must act now.
EHRC Code of Practice comes into effect today so remember to be an absolute pain in the arse to any service provider who is trying to actively enforce it.
Central government has never felt more out of touch with reality. If our farmers can’t grow food what will we eat? And if our children can’t learn and patients get ill because their hospitals are too hot, how can we live as normal?

You have got to be shitting me. The BBC only does transcripts for the podcast about disability. Because disabled people only care about benefits and shit, why would we ever want to learn about other things?

Echo the Australian magpie annoying a tuxedo cat named Gilbert in Thames, New Zealand. The pair are known to be friends, though the magpie is often described as an annoying sibling that frequently pushes limits. They are part of a group called "Tuxedoes Unite" located in Karangahake, New Zealand.
Rod Liddle spent years spouting divisive and hateful rhetoric - turning other people’s lives into clickbait, culture wars and newspaper copy for money. Now the privileged media class are passing judgment from the safety of their TV studios and opinion pages on the very people who he targeted
The new CEO of Bluesky wants to change Bluesky from being a leftist bubble. The thing is, there’s nothing wrong with being a leftist bubble: the idea that everything has to be all-encompassing and suitable for everyone is a trap. 🧵 1/4
Brilliant letter from Stuart Thompson to Jeremy Clarkson about his comments that benefit claimants should write weekly thank you letters to tax payers detailing how they spend their benefits each week.
As Rod Liddle has died, I notice this column I wrote in 2019 about his attacks on people with M.E. is on the most read again. Rebekah Brooks, of News UK, described Liddle today as “provocative”. In reality, he spread lies about very sick people for cash. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
Rod Liddle vilifies disabled people. I’m tired of the hate. We all should be | Frances Ryan
Whether it is ME patients or another target, huge swathes of the media have normalised hatred of minorities for years, says Guardian columnist Frances Ryan

Tom Bennett the government’s advisor on behaviour is in favour of stopping kids peeing until they are physically ill
I really don’t know what to say about this to be honest, but there it is
Very disappointing from the new Prime Minister, very much sounding like the previous PM. These are among the world’s most vulnerable and desparate people. They need safe routes and humanity from responsible politicians, not grandstanding. This isn’t doing politics differently.
Families say medication prescribed through WellBN will end with no clear replacement pathway in place. They fear this amounts to care being withdrawn without a safe alternative.
WellBN “alleviated the distress” of children “in the short term” by providing puberty blockers
A report into the WellBN GP service has concluded that the service "was inappropriately prescribing medications" despite acknowledging how it helped the young people

Across Britain’s quango state, hundreds of individuals hold multiple public appointments at once, and there is no central register showing how many also sit in firms that bid for, advise on, or benefit from public contracts. Parliament does not see the full map because no official map exists. FFS
