🤬🤬🤬 Malcolm Clark, is definitely a self-hating gay!!

I will be asking to remove 'Queer As Folklore' from the long list for the Polari Prize 2025.

Did the filter suck your speedos off!

Sorry, another Twitter screenshot (I went on to look at something else), but yup, just another day and one of the biggest transphobes teaming up with one of the biggest homophobes (she also hates trans people too) to liken LGBTQ+ folks to Nazis 🙄

Nope, still not distracted. Release the Epstein files.

Mmmm

Polari first book prize Longlist with Sacha coward, Jason okundaye, Amy twigg, and Mae diansangu's books crossed out to show they've withdrawn

The Polari book prize Longlist, with no books withdrawn by authors.

Keeping track of people withdrawing from the Polari Prize Longlist over the inclusion of proud self-described "TERF" John Boyne.

Let me know as we get updates on authors pulling their books in protest.

Guardian headline/sub headline World news Arrests begin in London at largest Palestine Action protest since group's ban Met police says it has drawn officers from other forces to form 'significant presence' in busy weekend of protests

The fact that you can protest against asylums seekers outside a hotel, using highly offensive and inflammatory slogans on banners and boards and be fine legally, but can’t peacefully protest against the murderous Israeli regime, says everything about how fucked up politics has become here

That was my Saturday childhood, along with Tarzan!

Birds of a feather...

🤣🤣🤣

Good to hear it went well. Now to rest and recover 💕

Re. the Polari LGBTQ Book Prize inclusion of a transphobe on their long list:
If it was a trans person who boasted of their homophobia, and used their platform to ridicule and abuse gays, I do not believe they would gain a place on that list.
Boyne’s inclusion normalises transphobia.
Shameful.

Mmmm

Armed police told Laura Murton, 42, that her demonstration in Canterbury, Kent, last month expressed views supportive of Palestine Action, which had been banned under terrorism legislation earlier in July.

Inside the split over trans women that could drive a wedge through Labour A poll has laid bare the split in the party following the Supreme Court ruling in April.

“the majority of members aged 18 to 44 believe that the government’s stance was wrong, while members aged 45 to 65+ believe it was correct”

In the next 20 years, as the bigoted transphobes die out, the horrific way trans people have been treated will be seen as the next ‘Post Office’ scandal! 😣

Wasn't her leaving paid for?

👏👏👏👏👏

If the IDF has nothing to hide with its military and aid operation, it should allow international journalists into Gaza

Love the back view!

The Height of Misinformation: How a Bra Fitting Became a Culture War How one routine customer interaction became weaponised — and what it teaches us about countering fear with strategy, not silence.

“This incident is a case study in how transphobic ideology launders itself into public discourse under the guise of safety and dignity” - @joannelockwood.bsky.social

Here’s what the headline should’ve read: M&S employee offers customer service. Customer projects bias. Media fuels anti-trans panic!

Definitely worth it!

Weather possibly too hot

Agreed!

Or who paid for her going away

Ghislaine Maxwell also raped kids, so *of course* Donald Trump doing that wouldn't concern her.

Besides, she is notorious for lying (even under oath) so why is she in any way credible?

There must be hundreds of LGBTQ residents in Kemptown (St James area) who could be interviewed to give both the pros and cons of Brighton Pride and in particular the Street Party!

That's just not cricket!!

Maybe I'll ask Jay at the vets!
