A military exercise that the US was invited to, declined, and then went and sank an unarmed vessel and murdered everyone on board.

We used to hang people for that.

Greens deputy leader calls for apology from Starmer over false claims that led to death threats Mothin Ali fears for his life after anti-war protest was wrongly described as being in support of Iranian regime

Our Deputy Leader and local councillor @mothinali.bsky.social has been subject to death threats in part due to false claims made by Keir Starmer and other senior MPs and media figures.

This must stop. We stand in full solidarity with Mothin.

Posting the Day Today ‘It’s War!’ skit for no particular reason youtu.be/7IEwBrJzhlg?...

A Saudi official saying this on Al Jazeera, a Qatari media outlet, is far more telling than any nugget of information carefully leaked to an American media outlet. This war will permanently alter the relationship of the Gulf states, the US, and Israel. @ H . Shaalan || همام شعلان @OSSWSSO © Translated from Arabic Show original Saudi official to Al Jazeera: Follow America has abandoned us, and focused its defense systems on protecting Israel, leaving the Gulf states that host its military bases at the mercy of Iranian missiles and drones.

I guess everyone from Cyprus to Bahrain has noticed their alliances have 1) made their countries vectors for genocide 2) has made them unwilling participants in America’s deranged wars and 3) also left them largely undefended by a superpower that appears to regard their security as secondary at best

I disagreed a lot with how neoliberal reforms altered the constitution of the British university, but on its own terms it was working. It was a successful, economically significant export market. The government basically decided to fuck it over due to racism and boneheaded tabloid brain.

Labour are like yes, your life will get incrementally worse, the country will get crueler, and yes we are playing nursemaid to a fascist Reform government, but at least you get a Greater Israel.

People are talking about risks related to DIY HRT and the fact that the purported risks are often overinflated by authorities seeking to limit access to transition entirely.

We are governed by murderous psychopaths.

Yep. Guardian’s going to Guardian I guess.

I would love to know why RAF jets are supporting US and Israeli airstrikes that kill Iranian schoolgirls. Is our government that addicted to killing brown kids that they couldn’t pass up this opportunity?

Weird that the Guardian would choose to interview an openly transphobic Dem.

"Professor Jacob George is recused from *further* involvement on the Pathways clinical trial as a precaution.”

Am pleased they admit he was involved. But you can't cure bias after the fact and our lawyers will be writing to the MHRA about its ascientific 'concerns' about the trials.

You would have to be a raging transphobe to go anywhere near the puberty blockers trial, or at least be willing to set fire to any research or medical ethics you pretend to have.

it's funny not jus bcos of the racism of it but bcos they can't figure out that if this, according to them, ultra conservative demographic doesn't give af about trans ppl then maybe the press obsession with us is actually bizarre and fascistic

a bunch of commentators and pundits went down to gorton & denton and said to muslim voters 'the greens are pro trans, what do you think?' and the response was that they supported trans rights or simply didn't care.

this is a demo the press, and politicians, view as ultra conservative. 🤷‍♀️

The Green Party: let’s all be fairly nice to each other.
The MSM: this is EXTREMISM.

Transphobia is not the vote-winner that transphobes think it is.

Why does every bootlicking POS Dem think that ‘nuance’ is some kind of get out of jail free card?

Also I couldn't be more glad at the demonstration that threatening a Manchester suburb with the threat of drug decriminalisation is a fucking stupid political strategy for Labour.

Many families will know people who have had their lives destroyed by criminalisation.

Reform on 13% of the registered vote seems about right and this is with all the major media and parties painting them as THE alternative

As always, far-right support is limited and its mainstreaming comes from the mainstream elite who try to use it as a distraction from their failures

Kevin Lister posted I was interviewed by Hillary Cass during the research phase of the Cass Review. She asked me two significant questions. 1. Did I think the transgender movement was adult led or child led? 2. Did I think there was a link between autistic children and trans children? In my interview with her, I said it was adult led and child amplified.

1/🧵 Just saw this awful post by a transphobic former teacher, who unintentionally reveals Hilary Cass to be the crank she is.

Kevin Lister @KevsTribulation posted I was interviewed by Hillary Cass during the research phase of the Cass Review. She asked me two significant questions. 1. Did I think the transgender movement was adult led or child led? 2. Did I think there was a link between autistic children and trans children? In my interview with her, I said it was adult led and child amplified.

What makes the transgender movement so pernicious now is that it is always there. It is present in schools, hospitals, social groups, on the street, on-line etc. It has penetrated all aspects of society. I would even wonder if targeted advertising is used to proactively reach out to vulnerable candidates. So, as soon as someone is feeling down the trans movement can immediately capitalise on the vulnerability and from a multitude of directions. In this respect its genesis and success lies in marketing rather than medicine. This also supports the concept of the adult led model. This reflection is also supported by Marlborough College's total lack of trans-identifying students, where the inability of the movement to gain a toehold prevents the normal mechanisms of perpetuation from being implanted. With regards, Kevin

The transgender communities then offer these students a place of unequivocal belonging. I then wonder if the act of transition acts like a rite of passage into these groups, after which the much sought after belonging is assured. So rather than the focus on autism as a possible primary cause, then maybe the focus should be on the general vulnerability that we all experience at various times in our life and to varying degrees. The combination of recession and darker times ahead along and higher expectations on children increases the sense of vulnerability they may feel.

----_ Date of email: 05/07/2022 Dear Hillary and Sally, I was further reflecting on the questions that you were asking yesterday, in particular on incidents of autism in trans identifying students. As I reflect back on the trans-identifying students that I have had, I would not say that any were obviously autistic and I don't recall ever seeing a diagnosis for autism in the college notes. What I would say though, and with a degree of certainty, is that those who were transitioning were all "socially vulnerable." Students in this category are those that are not fitting in with their peer groups as well as they could be. There are a myriad of reasons for this, ranging from problems in their home life, to natural self-doubt, poor academic performance, or to some other childhood trauma.

2/ Full screenshots. This is the same Kevin Lister who harassed trans pupils in 2021, was dismissed from the college in 2022, and lost his employment tribunal in 2024.

In 2022, despite being fully aware of his misconduct and legal troubles, Hilary Cass asked Lister to confirm her bias.

Israel is also changing the ingredients in baby formula sent to Gaza on a weekly basis, making it harmful to children who need the formula their body has grown used to. Genuinely unhinged country.

@sheacoffey.bsky.social

If anyone out there is as upset about Hillary Cass & her biased un-scientific report.

@www.helenwebberley.com has put forward a formal complaint.
