Even with a health secretary that doesn't believe in vaccines, the US has a more generous COVID vaccine programme than we do

NEWS: I'm hearing that the PCS Union's NEC has shut down ALL trans related motions for their entire conference, just 24h before it starts A brazen attempt to exclude trans people and their allies from democracy. Despicable

imagine choosing to go to bat for these people

good point

#OtD 18 May 1942 the Baum group, Jewish communist factory workers, broke into a Nazi anti-Soviet exhibition and set fire to it. In retaliation, the Gestapo rounded up all 30 members +500 others and executed them all stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/9029...
