This is Labour’s poll tax. Its tuition fees. It is - as Iraq was for Blair - the moral stain that will mark Starmer’s government and the party for years to come. Severely disabled people are going to be starved, isolated and degraded. No Labour MP who backs this will be forgiven.

Now available for sale in the Labour Party online shop. This is just disgusting. I am genuinely speechless.

Trans Woman Arrested, Sent to Men’s Jail For Entering Florida Capitol Bathroom www.erininthemorning... #transgender #trans #LGBTQ #LGBTQIA 1/2

I frequently talk about securitization of particular minorities, including gender minorities and this is a really useful background to the framework

Utter disgrace. I was at this demonstration the evening before and it was peaceful, moving and deeply sad. That the Guards saw fit to treat some of the best most empathetic people in Ireland in this way is an absolute outrage. Hope the commissioner is called to account and apologise to these women.

"It is important that the UK respect and protect freedom of expression.” This is the same country that arrests people in Quaker halls for discussing peaceful protest. The UK and the US are in a race to the bottom of removing free speech and right of assembly.

2 week old charcoal drawings of my two puppies !!! I had to draw them for an assignment and it was soo fun !!! I love drawing them whenever I can bc theyre so cutie patooties ^__^ !!! #CharcoalArt #SillyDogs #Drawings #charcoal

I have some very lovely friends putting on this event in North Wales. Yours truly is also doing a talk on Runes #pagan www.pagan-village.co.uk/north-wales-...

I'm sure y'all know that black cats are the main cats that are least likely to get adopted & are more likely to get euthanized. But did y'all know that black cats are literally the most common cat breed, meaning the majority of cats are Black? I'm so happy more are getting adopted because of this.

this is what fascism looks like. fascists depend on cowardice, but crumble when we defend each other & uphold solidarity. we keep us safe. ICE must be destroyed.

👉NEW VIDEO -- Yemen scandal: How Keir Starmer secretly helped Trump bomb children Journalist @ionacraig.com reveals how the Labour government was quietly involved in Trump's bombardment of Yemen last weekend. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBjg...

The reality is, the govt failed to release the impact assessment with Kendall’s reform announcements because they wanted the reality of 250k people (including 50k kids) falling into poverty to be buried. Forcing worried people to wait another week to know the truth. Disgraceful.

thank you for all your donations so far! if i can meet the goal, it'll be a life-changer 💜

Snatched from the street by thugs acting like secret fucking police.

Listen: I've organized all of my capacities since 2016 (even before that) around negotiating the descending polycrisis Climate change, pandemics, rising fascism, disintegrating communities, a skewed cultural relationship to mortality and dominance, devaluation of intuition and our place in nature

On a white nationalist livestream, a so-called traditionalist Catholic priest who, in recent years criticized Pope Francis, called the Holocaust "the biggest lie in history." angrywhitemen.org/2025/03/25/t...

Flashback to the time Stock challenged me to a public debate because I called out her shit in the local paper. www.whtimes.co.uk/news/educati...

Rachel Reeves is right that the world has changed - so why won’t she change her strategy to reflect it? Rigid adherence to arbitrary fiscal rules & refusing wealth taxes is a political choice that’s causing huge pain & harm, as well as laying out the welcome mat for the populists at Reform UK

One of the things that I don't see people talking about much is just how weird and disconcerting it is that "Gender Critical" people are so willing to just totally disregard "the social contract". Even when the person I'm talking to is a hateful extremist I find it hard...

The phrase "self-censor" is so stupid because the notion we all could or should go around freely expressing every thought we have is absolutely wild. I'm only human, sometimes I think mean things or am exasperated with people (personally and professionally) but I don't SAY that because it's rude!

Fined £585k for saying be nice to trans people because it makes bigots feel like they can't be bigots. It also says Stock was dismissed. She resigned.

Just the most insanely dishonest description of Dr Stock from Branwen Jeffreys at the BBC She's campaigning to remove almost every right trans people have today, she's a trustee of a hate group, and they went with this?

Unequal societies, the IMF and OECD have found, grow more slowly than more equal nations, and social mobility collapses in countries riddled with inequality. Tax reform can address inequality, so is better for growth, and it will raise the money that Reeves says Britain needs. What’s stopping her?

Unsolicited writing advice, no. #291 (b): When I say "read your work aloud", I mean READ YOUR WORK ALOUD. Getting an app to do it for you isn't at all the same thing: it engages different parts of the brain, and you're more likely to be distracted. You wrote the book in your voice: read it that way.

Please don’t ignore this If anyone can help a black transfem friend of mine I’d really appreciate it She’s genuinely one of the nicest people I know and she’s been having a hard time with stuff as of late

For the evening shift, I spoke with a number of #BlackLibrary authors about their thoughts on Meta’s “use” of their work in training its AI. Their thoughts- and why we should be alarmed in my latest for GH. Reposts gratefully appreciated. 🤘 #Warhammer #Nerdlings #BookSky

It's Trump language. They are trying to imitate his aggressive style.

Alberta, please come get your idiot already.

If you’re concerned & p***ed off that all guidance on patient registration for trans folk has been removed from the NHS website here’s one way to complain👇🏳️‍⚧️ For info, here’s the guidance that used to exist (archived): web.archive.org/web/20250201... The page now: pcse.england.nhs.uk/help/patient...

This is appalling, but sadly not unexpected. Take away people’s healthcare and people die. Or if they don’t die their mental health deteriorates, with long term consequences on multiple outcomes. But hey, ho, no matter, as long as the we have more babies to feed the capitalist machine.

I have created a Starter Pack for British Trans Activism Let's start organising and making the UK a better place. We've been on the defense for too long 🇬🇧🏳️‍⚧️✊ go.bsky.app/N6Qai5F
