The Not Cat

Jolyon suggests that if the EHRC loses it should apologise to trans people. I won’t be accepting an apology from a transphobic organisation that’s been forced into saying sorry. If they lose 🤞, then they need to be disbanded and replaced with a proper NHRI that can rebuild trust with our community.

'I used to pay £200 for trans healthcare - now I pay nearly £2,000' 'I just feel like my GP can, at any given time, ruin my life.'

Seems many UK trans people are losing their NHS prescriptions - including when requested by the official NHS GICs!

Reaction when I stood up for trans women made me realise I had to do more Manchester City and Netherlands player explains why she has become an LGBT Foundation patron and the importance of keeping football free of hate

"I felt very strongly about the supreme court ruling, politically and emotionally. It really hurt me, even though I’m a cisgender woman, and it still hurts me because it targets people within my community." www.theguardian.com/football/202...

Was about to point to this as evidence of Wes Streeting's failure - but then realized his private healthcare investors would regard it as evidence of his success.

🚨 Hundreds, possibly thousands, of GPs are refusing Trans+ adults their healthcare

We always said the Trans+ Healthcare scandal would get worse

"Given the complexity and unique medical considerations involved in hormone therapy [we're no longer authorising your prescription]" - GP

“Britain is a nation of neighbours, not strangers — and it’s time we built a politics of hope that reflects that.”

Zack Polanski with a message of unity and hope having been out door knocking Handsworth today.

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.

Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.

Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.

Amen to that.

Admittedly the Greens under Zack Polanski have seen an uptake in popularity. Under a platform of economic justice and not treating minorities (including trans people) like garbage.

Jeremy Corbyn's party has promise. Though there's too little known about their agenda in key areas.

Pretty amazed that zack polanski straight up, genuinely defended trans women to piers morgan on his tv show. Can't recall the last time I saw a politician do more than just a soundbite and walk away from it.

I sometimes worry I exaggerate the collective madness of our media but the people who cheered Brexit, Boris Johnson & Liz Truss's mini-budget are now applauding Kemi Badenoch's speech. 'Parallell universe' doesn't come close. I suppose her not falling over is a win of sorts for them at the moment.

"The one about Zack Polanski vs. a bunch of different flavoured Tories"

Give 'em what for @zackpolanski.bsky.social 💚

Disunited kingdom • Michael Jacobs Keir Starmer’s Labour government is struggling to position itself in a fragmented political landscape

"The Green Party had a particularly strong conference season under Polanski... with a bold platform of nationalisation of major utilities, a wealth tax and stronger environmental policy."

Power and wealth have taken our assets. We must take them back.

Michigan Avenue right now.

I can’t believe I have to say this, but historically, masked men who kidnap families in the middle of the night are usually not the good guys.

Jenrick could have visited Handsworth to listen to residents – he chose to pass through and make a judgement based on the colour of their skin. Instead of getting to know our nation of neighbours, he chose racism.

The Tories, Reform and Labour want to divide us.

The Greens say enough is enough.

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

We flounced out of the EU on the say-so of politicians who lied to us. And what a total shitshow that’s turned out to be. The polar opposite of what they promised. Now the call to flounce out of the ECHR. By the same people. Telling the same lies. Has the country been kicked in the head by a horse?

i think bluesky needs to decide what they're making. if they're making a protocol, like some of their developers say, they should shut down the social media app that's causing them so many problems. if they're making a social media app, they have to engage with it like adults.

These are just our first steps.

Let's keep going.

One thing that comes through awfully clearly in these ICE videos is how many of these goons gravitated toward the job because being able to assault people with impunity is a big thrill for them.

I said what I said.

IL Congressional candidate Kat Abughazaleh: "I think Kristi Noem should have consequences. I think she should be tried at The Hague."

BlackRock will buy AES, one of the largest publicly traded utility companies in the U.S.

AES is a major power provider for Big Tech companies building out data centers.

Yes: while these data centers drive up your electricity costs, wealthy financiers are going to make a killing.

In all honesty, it’s not rhetoric any more. It’s not narrative. I’ve experienced more racism in the last 4 months than I can ever remember. The wheels are off in the UK and it’s being led by 3 political parties.

Manchester synagogue: Four people injured in car and stabbing attack Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham says it's believed the suspect is dead, and that the immediate danger appears to be over.

Oh no 😣 www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cx...

HOLLO.

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane
