Wonderful opportunity for more people to discover the brilliance of this remarkable humanist. Bertrand Russell's dedication to reason, his tireless campaigning for peace, & unwavering belief in humanity's potential for good remain as important as ever!

When I said we weren't here to be disappointed in Labour but to replace them. I meant it.

A lot of us have been asking what the grounds for the arrest were, and there's no answers coming back from LedByDonkeys or Ahmed Masoud and I don't know why?
heh, what time is it now?

25.06.2025 16:18 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0I'm grateful for all of the responses. But this is happening to thousands of women, cis and trans, up and down the country. Every day. The only difference is she and I have a voice.
Fuck all of those, especially the institutions, who didn't do the work before piling in on 'the transgender issue.'
Last year my wife had breast cancer and a double mastectomy.
This morning, for the first time ever, she was challenged in the changing rooms at the swimming pool. Her breasts were not what make her a woman - but, breasts or not, she is entitled to dignity and protection from vigilantes.
To be fair, he's always been forthcoming about which side he's on.

Segregating them, like in the pre Civil Rights racist USA, dangerously outing them whenever they need to use the toilet or have to go in to hospital.

At the top, the text "A Ladybird book for misunderstanding democracy." Keir Starmer is standing on top of some injured older trans women, one holding a sign saying "trans rights are human rights". A young boy looks on, with a look of concern. In the background, the Houses of Parliament.
The way the Labour Government have behaved, just weeks after confiming their manifesto promise to improve things for trans people in the UK, is deeply shameful, with zero ethics, morality or backbone.

This week I've been managing personal harassment on X. And I don't even use the platform. This harassment was then amplified by the Daily Mail.
Let's talk about it...

Labour's new policy - of humiliating trans people by requiring them constantly to self-identify - we believe puts the UK (again) in breach of its obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights and will seek a declaration of incompatability. goodlaw.social/0r6l

Screw the so-called Labour Party; screw the so-called EHRC; and screw the so-called Supreme Court: you've not made even one woman safer but you're causing great cruelty to tens of thousands of people leading blameless lives.
