Starmer's statement thanks McSweeney for "turning the party around after one of the worst defeats in its history".

The general secretary of education union, NASUWT, has made clear statements AGAINST changes to the RSHE guidance, which exclude and alienate trans pupils.

Blanket rule on trans women in menโ€™s prisons would deny their identity, says Scottish government SNPโ€™s lawyer argues the โ€˜mental health and rehabilitationโ€™ of prisoners is more important than their biological sex A blanket rule to house transgender women in menโ€™s prisons, even when they pose no risk to others, would be a โ€œfundamental denialโ€ of their identity, the Scottish government has argued. Placing a trans inmate in a prison that does not align with their lived gender runs counter to the aims of rehabilitation, Gerry Moynihan KC said on Thursday as he set out Scottish ministersโ€™ position that a blanket rule on where prisoners are housed could contravene obligations under the European convention on human rights.

1/๐Ÿงต I really like Lesley Irvineโ€™s straightforward metaphor for the Scottish Ministers, hate groups are attempting to subvert the Equality Act 2010, turning Schedule 3, which was meant as a shield, into a sword, leaving trans people with nothing to defend themselves against this supposed new sword.

Russia hired anti-LGBTQ+ rightwingers to push propaganda to U.S. audiences - LGBTQ Nation The Department of Justice revealed that Tenet Media was mostly funded buy Russian state media. It regularly platforms anti-LGBTQ+ broadcasters.

And Russia has been pushing this shit for about the same amount of time the TERFs have been active, unsurprisingly.

don't mind me, just finding lots of bread crumbs showing Epstein and the League of Pederasts were a driving force in pushing transphobic hate.

The EHRC's withholding of board minutes is clear; transparency is not its intention. Something that an NHRI should be upholding as part of its duties.

We have sent an email to the EHRC asking for clarity on this matter.

Point 9.4 from their minutes stares them right in the face, and shouts out everything that is wrong with their Code of Practice.
But then they tell Phillipson that everything in it is fine and legally watertight.

JK Rowling and her team "protecting women and girls" by inviting convicted sex offender Epstein to the opening of her Harry Potter play.

It certainly is an interesting approach to child protection.

Lawsuit claims WhatsApp has a gaping security hole. Experts doubt it. WhatsApp called a California lawsuit that alleged staff could read user messages โ€œfrivolousโ€ and said it would seek sanctions against the firmโ€™s attorneys.

A new lawsuit filed against its owner Meta alleges that the company can โ€œaccess virtually all of WhatsApp usersโ€™ purportedly โ€˜privateโ€™ communications.โ€

Security experts questioned the lack of technical detail in the case, and WhatsApp denied the claims.

โ€˜Huge mistakeโ€™: Labour in turmoil as Burnham blocked from byelection race Allies of Greater Manchester mayor say No 10 has โ€˜chosen factionalismโ€™ as decision leads to a furious backlash

A truly weak and stupid decision by the NEC to block Burnham from standing. The seat will now likely fall to Reform.

Starmer is the least popular PM ever and him staying in post will hand the country to Farage.

This is the day we can be confident that Labour has completely given up on the next election. Starmer is more concerned with his job and his flunkies with internal conflict than governing.

It's a straight fight now between,

The Green Party --- and --- Refascist

Time to pick a side.

In the most unsurprising turn of events, some Labour right apparatchiks care more about settling personal scores than winning elections after all.

Even if it means risking gifting Reform another seat in Parliament. 1/2
