With the new ECHR guidelines out today, which I firmly believe is unlawful and discriminatory towards the trans community. Maybe people should start complaining en masse when Maya Forstater goes to the loo.

A reminder that Rod Liddle also said child sex abuse “porn” should be legal. Seems to also be missing from his obituaries…
Rod Liddle was an active and enthusiastic member of the truly crazy rump SDP. Feel this important detail has been somewhat absent from his obituaries.
Just watching this now on #C4News and people complaining about tourism being impacted by low river levels. If governments don’t act responsibly now on #ClimateChange there won’t be anywhere to go to be a tourist. Businesses will be gone, yet they’re ignoring the warning signs. Time to act!
Wildfires. Water shortages. Low river levels. Reduced power generation capacity and increased demand. The new normal for Europe in this climate catastrophe. #C4News

Every single second, the world hands $6,000 to the fossil fuel industry in subsidies. That’s $5 TRILLION every year. Renewables? Barely a fraction of that. We are literally paying to cook our own planet. When does this madness stop? 🌍💸 #ClimateCrisis #FossilFuels
I’m going to be quite frank about this now. This was & never will be about women’s rights. All I see is a world famous author using her position, her platform to bully organisations that have integrity when it comes to supporting those who are being targeted, bullied & abused. An empowered bully.
JK Rowling offered to bankroll legal action against Féile Belfast, because JK Rowling is the GCs legal "heavy" when it comes to threatening organisations. "We're backed by a billionaire," is a very scary threat to most orgs, which is why Rowling was so snide and confident here. But, they lost.
Reform has a habit of removing anything LGBTQ from libraries of councils they control. My book would be removed because of 2 reasons 1) It’s by an LGBTQ author. 2) Details exactly what real predators do with children which Reform wouldn’t want you to know. Information is vital, knowledge is power
Jonathan Porritt has been arrested. As he says "trying to save lives is not terrorism, exposing this Governments complicity in genocide is not terrorism."
NEW: Sir Jonathon Porritt, arrested under Terrorism law outside Westminster Magistrates Court. As police escorted him away he said "I am a supporter of Palestine Action, trying to save lives is not terrorism, exposing this Governments complicity in genocide is not terrorism." www.wedonotcomply.org
This is the right outcome for @zackpolanski.bsky.social and he has my full support. The preposterous accusations from Reform are no more than political posturing, especially when Reforms leader has incited riots & racial division with absolutely no consequences. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
No further action against Zack Polanski over guillotine re-post, police say
The Green Party leader has said he made an "inadvertent mistake" when he shared the image with his social media followers.

The last time a government and their officials used language like this millions of people were sent to concentration camps and died in gas chambers.
“Tow the line” Their unpleasant entitlement is only exceeded by their stupidity.
Just texted the Reform Councillor at his public office phone number. Educating people on the consequences of anti LGBTQ hate is what my purpose is. Let’s hope Councillor Owain Clatworthy makes the connection.
I just wanted to live my life without persecution but people like you enabled this to happen to me. This isn’t political, it isn’t a billboard, it’s called acceptance and a signal to us that we’re not seen as inhuman.
I’m sick and tired of being subjected to abuse by drivers in Wetherby because I’m stopped legally outside a customer’s house picking up their dog for a walk. What gives anyone the right to abuse a member of the public who’s just going about doing their job?
Your daily reminder that the donor who gave Nigel Farage five million pounds, billionaire Christopher Harborne, is knowingly lying to the local council & electoral commission about his residency in the UK thus committing an offence by doing so. As per @channel4news.bsky.social special report.
Still awaiting Nigel Farage to be investigated for inciting rioting…
Excited to share the news that I’ll be attending & speaking at this years #DarlingtonPride. As a living witness to what our community’s experienced in the past & a survivor of child trafficking, I’m grateful for the opportunity to share my experiences in order to protect our whole #LGBTQ community.
