If you photograph people in toilets, you’re a walking red flag and the police should be coming to your door.

Really?🤦🏼‍♀️ These posts pop up periodically and are mind numbingly tedious. Is TFL being “racist against white people” by offering an internship to those with a minority ethnic background? Or is it possible there’s more to this than the screenshot and tweet suggest?🤷🏼‍♀️ 🧵1/10

"Swim Glinner" is just perfect 😂😂😂

Let’s play a game of “spot the woman”. Press box equivalent of where’s wally

Pride. Hope. Happiness. Solidarity. Gratitude. We have felt it all this week 🧡 We'll be carrying the spirit of this @refugeeweek.bsky.social into all that we do to make Wales a #Nation\ofSanctuary. One thing is for certain, if you look close enough, you'll find an orange heart to lead the way

This is one of the most powerful things you’ll watch online or TV. It puts the Tories, and in particular Kemi Badenoch, to shame. Not to mention anyone else who has tried to use the horror of the grooming gangs for political point-scoring.

This is THE tweet of all time

“At The National we deal in truth, and will not be cowed by a billionaire trying to control media output to fit her own worldview.” 👏👏👏 www.thenational.scot/news/2525321...

Extraordinary I have to write this. The Roma are human too. The Roma have rights too. The Roma have been persecuted for centuries. The Roma were the last enslaved people in Europe. The Roma are last whipping boy IN Europe - on BBC this lunchtime people being openly discriminatory. STOP

This is populism at its most poisonous – promise the impossible, stir the resentment, and let someone else pick up the pieces. It’s the politics of grievance, not governance. Theatre, not transformation ✍️Owen Williams

since it’s pride and I just got a bunch of new followers let’s keep the rent low by firing some shots in the air - if someone wants to transition at any age for any reason that’s their business 👍🏳️‍⚧️

1/ Today on the 1st day of pride month and the day before Emily’s birthday the FA ban on trans women in football starts. This ban has broken my daughter in a way I didn’t think she could break. The pain and sorrow she felt at the end of her last game was soul destroying to witness.

Happy #PrideMonth! 🏳️‍🌈
