The state is determined to follow through on prosecuting people for showing support for the proscribed group Palestine Action. Sixty-four people were formally notified of charges today and are due to appear in court in October.

Unfortunately Labour can quote deportation figures all they like but the Reform voters will not be satisfied until there are no Black and Asian people visible on the bus. And also anyone that looks like they might be Polish.

No more "dignity and respect" or "kindness" or "allyship" from politicians. We're full up on those ta. Give us informed consent trans healthcare, give us reform of the Equality Act that enforces our right to use public space on equal terms to cis people.

I’ve had the privilege of playing on the same team as Emily several times over the years. She is kind, brave, and deserves the world.

We should call the ban out for what it is: the FA is banning trans kids from playing grassroots sports with their friends. It’s not about protecting women at all.

People - and it’s no one I follow to be fair - need to stop talking about the threat of a far right government. WE ALREADY HAVE A FAR RIGHT GOVERNMENT. Said government being branded Labour makes no difference to the minorities and/or people in poverty they are constantly throwing under the bus.

stancil calls the idea that US racism influenced hitler a "buzzy and incorrect take" in the replies to this, but hitler literally wrote about being influenced by US immigration policy in mein kampf. like he just says it outright, it's not an inference or a guess or anything. he wrote it himself!

"On the important issue of discrimination, Clause 9 makes it clear that a transsexual person would have protection under the Sex Discrimination Act as a person of the acquired sex or gender. Once recognition has been granted, they will be able to claim the rights appropriate to that gender."

"On the important issue of discrimination, Clause 9 makes it clear that a transsexual person would have protection under the Sex Discrimination Act as a person of the acquired sex or gender. Once recognition has been granted, they will be able to claim the rights appropriate to that gender."

The Minister who introduced the Gender Recognition Bill in the House of Lords in 2003 made it clear that "a transsexual person would have protection under the Sex Discrimination Act [the predecessor to the Equality Act] as a person of the acquired sex or gender." /1

Said this before, but every time the "biological woman" circus kicks off I think of the millions of women, including myself, with conditions like PCOS who struggle with "masculine" features like facial hair, and how the only women I'd be afraid to meet in a bathroom are gender-policing creeps.

While Palestinian families are starved, bombed, and burned in Gaza, BoD president Phil Rosenberg found the time to chastise the 36 deputies who dared to speak out against Israel’s war.

This is not community leadership; it is moral collapse.

Watching an administration of violent, sieg heiling christo-fascists use Jewish vernacular while enacting Nazi policies against a marginalized group is more obscene than anything I could ever draw. Hope they all get what they richly deserve. πŸ‘

I am being 100% serious when I say that part of the success of the current wave of loud, public transphobia is down to misogynists realising they can use it to deflect from talking about misogyny.

'No-one is talking about young men' increasingly occupies the same space as 'we need an honest conversation about immigration'. We never shut up about young men. It's one of the only things we ever talk about, although admittedly only ever to say 'we need to be more reactionary'.

Figure skating world championships were considered to be for men only until 1902, when Madge Syers showed up and took home silver and the ISU went "whooooops guess we need to segregate them."

It happened again in 1992 Olympic skeet shooting: Zhang Shan took gold and then they segregated the event.

The Most Relevant Movie in Theaters Is Poised to Make Oscar History. It Would Be a Shameful First. It swept the critics’ awards and seems like an Oscars lock, yet it still doesn’t have a distributor.

congratulations to No Other Land, which may be the first film to win a major Oscar but not theatrical distribution.

Why is it so important to monitor the international far right authoritarian movement? It allows you to see what is coming.

I have no doubt, that as we approach Pride Month, Republican state lawmakers will seek to implement these types of restrictions. The far right online has already taken notice.

The attack on DEI shows why liberals should stop arguing about "strategic" use of language forever. DEI stands for three uncontroversial virtues that most every American accepts, and the right still turned it into a vile slur. It doesn't matter what you say - they will poison it because YOU said it.

Suella Braverman: 

Englishness has never been static or simple. From the arrival of the Romans to the waves of Saxons, Vikings, and Normans, English culture has always absorbed and adapted. How many generations must pass before one can claim to be English? Five? Six? It is a question without an easy answer.

If we are to defend Judeo-Christian civilization, British values, and the distinctiveness of English culture, there must be some form of consensus.
