Not a cat on stilts wearing a trench coat. Definitely not a cat. Much less, a ringtail (aka the Miner's Cat). No, sir-ee! Ursula K LeGuin destroys JK Rowling's writing any day

For anyone who doesn't know "Article 8" is the European Convention on Human Rights right to a private life This is the head of the EHRC saying that she does not believe that *anyone* has the right to privacy when it comes to being trans or cis Brazenly immoral, legally untrue

I 100% guarantee you that absolutely no-one crossing one of the world's busiest shipping routes in order to seek asylum was doing it based on the timing of the spending review.

The ‘Millionaire Exodus’ the UK Media Told You About Never Actually Happened The equivalent of 30 stories a day were published about an exodus of wealthy people that a new study finds was "non existent" bylinetimes.com/2025/06/10/t...

“The more people who say that they can ‘live with’ racism and misogyny in a candidate, even if they’re not enthusiastic racists, the more the enthusiastic racists and the fascists become stronger.” Thoughtful interview with Judith Butler on staying curious and building solidarities for justice. 🌈🎓

A thread on Green Party Executive Elections! It's not just the leadership. There are a lot of roles up for election. I'm going to try and keep track of all the candidates here. Let me know if I've missed any The roles are: Deputy leader/s Chair Campaigns Co-ordinator Elections Co-ordinator

Conclusions now I’ve had a break: - EHRC aren’t trying to hide that they’re transphobic & their interpretation of the Supreme Court judgement makes no sense - MPs regularly cited what they’re hearing from members of the public in their questioning. Keep writing to them. They’re listening.

Today during our questioning of the EHRC, I asked how interim guidelines could possibly adhere to trans people's right to private life. The interim update has many consequences and unanswered questions - for organisations and individuals. I will continue to ask them in our committee.

Here it is... the smoking gun that should bring down this entire EHRC committee.

I have emailed my MP and asked them to support this amendment. The link below makes it incredibly easy to do the same, and if you are a UK resident I very strongly encourage you to do so. Abortion is critical healthcare and we must decriminalise it NOW.

dude this party is such an echo chamber. it's just friends hanging out and chilling and having a good time. you need to invite some people over who want to kill you with hammers

Just spoke to Jim Diamond at LBC about the need for a wealth tax. Rachel Reeves has made her own self imposed fiscal rules. It's obscene to be squeezing international aid & development at the same time as spending money on more bombs.

Chancellor talks about energy security but yet again - just another way of funding private capital. What about investing in renewables & nationalising our energy companies? What about energy efficiency & prioritising insulating homes of poorest households? Bring bills down. #SpendingReview

Not just that, 3:56 p.m., she literally said they haven't spoken about human rights at all. Freudian slip? It is a little confession that she doesn't see us as human. It's literally the meme that was circulating a few days ago

Head of the EHRC saying that she doesn't think trans people in the UK should have the European Convention on Human Rights Article 8 right to private life Also worth noting that demanding random cis people "prove" they are cis also violates their privacy rights too

👀

At 15:56:10 today, Kishwer Fallner said, after spending 1hr 30 minutes being questioned on trans rights "We haven't spoken about human rights at all today." What the fuck. This is why the call "trans rights are human rights" is so important because it is so fundamental to any human rights convo

True but they don't care. They do not care at all about holding contradictory worldviews. It does not matter to them at all. They don't really believe that cis people pretend to be trans to commit crimes, they just hate trans people and need an excuse

I see that Kishwer Falkner has attacked Good Law Project in her appearance before the Women and Equalities Select Committee. Here is the evidence that the EHRC backed its landlord's failed attempt to stop protests. (The documents are all here. www.tintagelhouseinjunction.com)

In the USA the destruction of abortion rights followed hot on the heels of attacks on trans rights. Just so it is happening here, and it's the same people behind it. #WarOnTrans #WarOnFreedom

What a fucking psycho this Falkner is wtf

The TERFs what is a woman question always only makes me think of this.

"Wes Streeting's here"

On March 31st 2024, Lune carried out a solo protest on Trans day of visibility in Singapore. She has been charged under the public order act, her case is ongoing. She raising money for legal defence / fine. gogetfunding.com/help-lune-de...

No one likes to talk about El Salvador. The place where America runs its concentration camps is the place where it has time and again tested unspeakable horrors. Even today, ordinary Salvadorans are subject to martial law while the upper class enjoys the modernised amenities paid for by Bitcoin 🧵

Cmon Starmer, now you've got to sanction the rest of them and finally fucking cut arms to Israel But you won't cuz you're a spineless chicken

Bezalel Smotrich responded to the UK sanctions by cutting off Palestinian banks from the Israeli financial system and ending the waiver allowing Palestinians to use the shekel. In other words, he's unbanking all of Palestine. www.jpost.com/israel-news/...

ICE seemingly confirms they are using National Guard as security to conduct immigration raids. Let's call this what it is, militarized ethnic cleansing.

I know many people get stuck on the "trans people in sport" issue - this article is a great explainer

So like, between the workwear guy, the LA scanner, Canary mission and the Palestine arrests, we gonna start admitting that posting on twitter is a severe threat to your own safety or are we in denial about that? Like Nazi bar yes but c'mon now this is self-preservation

Trump is starting the dehumanization process to get the military ready to fire on US citizens on US soil. To get the military to that point, they must see fellow Americans as enemies and less than human. These are the seeds of mass atrocities.

There's one quote in NYT's podcast about trans healthcare that perfectly illustrates what's wrong with how media organizations frame this kind of coverage. www.readtpa.com/p/the-quote-...

THIS: "this isn't really about medical protocols or research quality or protecting confused children. It's about the refusal to accept that transgender people exist at all"

I joined Twitter to follow this account about nine years ago. This is disturbing.

GET OFF THAT FUCKING WEBSITE AND TELL PEOPLE TO GET OFF THAT WEBSITE CHRIST

Once again, for the people saying it's about fairness in sports, I was repeatedly told (until I eventually sued) that unless I was required to practice law under my deadname and whilst presenting masculine, it would be unfair to women. It's not about sports and it's not about fairness.
