The EHRC has finally, five months after producing its wildly transphobic and, we believe, unlawful Interim Guidance now taken it down. Our judicial review challenge to that Interim Guidance will be heard in less than one month.

The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session.

Want to know why?

Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out.

Call GOP and tell them to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

J-Novel Club released the final volume in English back in 2022. I guess the anime is to support sales of the manga? It was fine, but I prefer Firehead's current novel series 'Mercedes and the Waning Moon' which will also be getting an anime.

Can we also stop supplying weapon parts to Israel, suspend trade and impose a sports and cultural boycott to try and ensure there's a Palestine left to recognise?

The Labour government: We're different to the Tories

Also the Labour government: Hires Thames Water’s reputation manager and a member of the board of the anti-trans charity Sex Matters.

They have lost their fucking minds.

47% of people think immigration is primarily illegal. There were 4% irregular arrivals in March

New YouGov polling. A monumental failure of our political class to educate, a monumental failure of our media to report fairly, for a generation

Global firms ‘profiting from genocide’ in Gaza, says UN rapporteur Report by Francesca Albanese singles out companies such as Palantir and calls for prosecutions

Palantir, who Keir Starmer went to show his support for in Washington DC? Palantir, who Wes Streeting wants to hold your confidential healthcare data? That Palantir? www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

As a Jew I am far, FAR more alarmed by our institutions equating me and other Jews with the IDF, who are responsible for the murder of over 80,000 Palestinians, by dint of framing any critique against the IDF as ‘antisemitism.’

Linking all Jews to the IDF is *actual* fucking antisemitism.

Nearly 4 million households will also receive an income boost with the main rate of Universal Credit set to increase above inflation every year for the next four years – estimated to be worth £725 by 2029/30 for a single household 25 or over. This is around £250 higher than an inflation only increases. The Bill will also rebalance Universal Credit rates by reducing the health element for new UC claims to £50 from April 2026, fixing a system which encourages sickness by paying health element recipients more than double the standard amount.

I’ve been making my way through the Welfare Reform Bill and this paragraph on the gov.uk website is genuinely disgusting.

Receiving a decent disability benefits rate “encourages sickness”, does it? Funny, I thought it just enabled severely ill and disabled people to eat.

They both also oppose assisted dying and the dignity of trans people: ie they are perfectly aligned with their bosses at The Times.

As Klarna flips from AI-first to hiring people again, a new landmark survey reveals most AI projects fail to deliver Just 1 in 4 AI investments bring in the ROI they promise—but CEOs just can’t resist the technology.

Sure, AI may be an environmental disaster and produce mid outcomes in cases where it doesn't straight up lie, but at least it's extremely unprofitable.

As Labour Government 2025 prepares to curtail the right to trial by jury, a reminder of what Labour Opposition 2020 said when the Conservatives made the same threat.

"in a case which is fundamentally about the rights of trans people with gender recognition certificates the Supreme Court excluded all trans voices and added in the voices of those opposed to the right and dignities of trans people."

Reckon when islands inhabited by penguins and no people have tariffs imposed on them, that trying to find sound reasoning is a lost cause.

DWP impact assessment text: "The potential impact of these reforms on poverty projections has been estimated using a static microsimulation model. Using this model, we estimate there will be an additional 250,000 people (including 50,000 children) in relative poverty after housing costs in 2029/30 as a result of modelled changes to social security, compared to the baseline projections."

The DWP forecasts that - without factoring its employment support package or its as yet opaque protections for severe lifelong disabilities - its disability benefit cuts will lead to 250,000 more people, including 50,000 more children, living in relative poverty after housing costs in 2029/30

the tesla protest might objectively be among the most successful in history already just in terms of immediate response, if you consider they forced the world’s most powerful person & its most wealthy to fully degrade themselves like used car salesmen on live TV while the whole world watched agog.

A statement titled "Cross-Party Statement on Wes Streeting’s Engagement with Anti-Trans Groups" expresses disappointment over Wes Streeting’s meeting with the Bayswater Group and other organisations advocating for anti-LGBTQIA+ conversion practices. The statement criticises Streeting and the UK Labour government for failing to work in good faith with LGBTQIA+ groups. It highlights concerns about the Bayswater Group’s actions in blocking a Conversion Practices Ban and mentions trans young people’s pleas regarding puberty blockers. It also condemns Streeting’s support for the Cass Review, which is described as flawed and influenced by anti-LGBTQIA+ groups. The statement concludes with a call for Streeting to resign as Secretary of State for Health and Social Care. It is signed by Rainbow Greens, LGBTQIA+ Greens, LGBT+ Liberal Democrats, and Out For Independence. The image includes logos of these organisations at the bottom.

We don't have to speculate about whether Hilary Cass was chosen for her gender critical views. Kemi Badenoch has more or less told her she was.

Professor Alexis Jay said that starting a new inquiry could hinder the implementation of the recommendations from her 2022 report. "We have set out what action is required and people should just get on with it," she told the BBC. She added: "I've certainly been very unhappy about the politicisation of child sexual exploitation and child sexual abuse in the way that many people, sometimes in a very uninformed way, have waded into the argument."

Professor Alexis Jay, who led a 7-year review of sexual abuse which reported in 2022, says starting a new inquiry would delay any implementation of her own recommendations:
