A massive week (for me) begins.

Ollie and Seren got me up at 3:40. I took them out and went back to sleep. Now I'm up again and on my game! πŸ’ͺ🏻🍳πŸ₯“β˜•πŸƒπŸ»β€β™€οΈ

It’s St David’s Day πŸ₯³πŸ΄σ §σ ’󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿πŸ’ͺ🏻 and I was woken up at 4 by two Welsh Collies who wanted to go out walking in the rainy darkness.

So I took them out and then slept in until far too late. πŸ₯±β˜•️ I’m now racing against time to get my boat jobs done in time for a very important week! πŸƒπŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸ‘©πŸ»β€πŸ”§β›΅οΈ

Moore is a horrible, horrible piece of work.

I’m 50 and have lived with being trans every day of my life.

People like this, motivated by nothing but hatred, should have absolutely no business commenting on our lives.

My fried tomato played me a bagpipes song as I put it on my plate. 🀯

Not sure I want to eat it now. There was intelligence and soul behind it.

It’s a dark start to this last day of February, but the sun should be out by lunchtime.

Ollie and Seren got me up at 6 when it was raining heavily. The gods obviously like me atm because they got it to ease off for 10 minutes to take them out.

They’re back asleep now. I’m doing my breakfast. πŸ˜›πŸ³πŸ₯“β˜•οΈ

The vile shitbag responsible for the biggest assault on LGBT rights in UK history, which could yet see me barred from public places, has branded the Green Party β€˜extreme’.

If only we still had functioning journalism in this country.

This is a disgusting government with a disgusting Prime Minister.

The Labour party didn't just lie.

They ran a disgusting gutter campaign.

The sort of campaign you'd expect from far right hatemongers.

What they did in Gorton and Denton must never be forgotten. They must never get away with it.

It's not the brightest of mornings out there, but that can't spoil the good news from Gorton and Denton! πŸ₯³

Because equality is not something you can allocate to your favourites and still get to say you believe in.

Either it’s for everyone or it’s not equality.

Labour believe in privilege for those they like, and subjugation for those of us they don’t.

I’m thinking GRA2004 and EA2010 were both opposed by Labour governments who got beaten at the ECtHR.

And now they’re gloating about the Equality Act whilst destroying the above laws, and proving they are no defenders of equality.

They had to be dragged kicking and screaming through Strasbourg to give us the Equality Act.

And that was a relatively benevolent version of the party compared with the inhumane utter disgrace they are today.

At this point in UK history, any Labour politician saying they’re proud of the Equality Act, and claiming to stand up for it, is taking the piss in a very sick way.

They don’t believe in equality. They believe in persecuting minorities. They believe in privilege for some and subjugation for others.

Hearing that man say he’s proud of the Equality Act makes me feel physically sick.

You don’t get to exclude demographics from such a law and pretend you’re anything but a vile, fascist piece of shit.

Labour have become absolute scum. Only the Greens now represent any sort of human decency.

Hopefully everyone eligible to vote today is now aware of this, and Labour's vote share falls through the floor like they deserve.

I can't believe how scummy they've become.

I so hope Labour take the battering they deserve tomorrow. Absolute scum party.
