Last year my wife had breast cancer and a double mastectomy. This morning, for the first time ever, she was challenged in the changing rooms at the swimming pool. Her breasts were not what make her a woman - but, breasts or not, she is entitled to dignity and protection from vigilantes.

Free Palestine. End the apartheid. Stop the ethnic cleansing of Gaza. Settlers out. Use your privilege to speak against Israel's genocidal actions while you still can.

World leaders can make as many statements as they like opposing Israel's actions in Gaza. Until they end the sale of weapons to Israel, they remain complicit in the mass murder of Palestinians. Stop arming genocide, now.

Today was the first time I've felt genuinely happy with myself. I have worked so hard to escape where I've been these past 10 years mentally. There have been so so so many days where I thought it was all for nothing. I think today was the first time I knew the opposite. I am in shock.

Asylum seekers CAN'T claim benefits. You need a NI no for that. Asylum seekers WANT to work. But it's not allowed. Asylum seekers DO NOT live in 5* hotels. They live in cramped rooms w/o access to cooking facilities. Asylum seekers get £49.18p/w to live off. ... Is THIS the luxury you speak of?

"An average of 320 patients a week died needlessly in England last year due to very long waits in A&E for hospital beds, according to calculations by the Royal College of Emergency Medicine" [Politico] Will we see emergency legislation for this, or is that just for trans people?

Glasgow Greens are appalled by the UK Government’s policy plans & offensive rhetoric in regards to immigration. We know that migrants make Glasgow - so we wanted to give some of our members an opportunity to share their thoughts on this week's events. Committee member @malenagla.bsky.social:

Ten years ago, the UK was the best in Europe. Now under Starmer's Labour, we've fallen to 22nd. Of the last five Prime Ministers we've had, the best on LGBT+ rights was checks notes Theresa May. This decline is a badge of shame, and that includes for our party. We must reverse this fall.

In 2015, the UK was the leading country on LGBTI human rights in Europe according to IGLA-Europe, with 86%. In 2025, we have dropped to 46%.

Besides the fact he is pro genocide, dehumanises immigrants and has zero regard for the working class people of the country im also not a fan of him conflating the views of British Jews celebrating a holiday with an invasion of multiple countries from an ethno state 2.5 thousand miles from the UK

How nice to be told by Keir Starmer that my mother who delivered babies, as a midwife, worked nights and damaged her back lifting patients as a nurse, was a pillar of her community as a health visitor has caused “incalculable damage” to the UK !

When a government is functionally racist, transphobic and ableist, it's beside the point whether its leaders, members and voters hold racist, transphobic or ableist views. It's the practical effects they're enabling that matter. If you're behaving like the bad guys, that's what you are.

There’s a generation of left-leaning voters in their 30s who, until last year, hadn’t had an election go their way in their lifetime. Now they have, and they still get all the policies they voted against. I don’t think this is going to help trust in politics.

It's unreal how many times I hear "illegal immigrants" on a day to day basis. It is NOT illegal to seek asylum in the UK. Seeking asylum is a legal right recognised under international law, and the UK is a signatory to the 1951 Refugee Convention. The end.
