Rules forcing trans people to use birth-sex facilities delayed The Equality and Human Rights Commission set out statutory guidance on how gyms, clubs and hospitals must judge single-sex spaces based on biology

You'll have to ignore the buckets of anti-trans campaigning commentary in the piece, but the basic news is quite simple. The EHRC has failed to get the government to accept its anti-guidance in haste. Something is holding it up, perhaps for another a year www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Your daily reminder that the government continues to commercially support an individual who wants to destroy it through fascist violence.

Help give every child a fair start in life.

Every child should start life with the same opportunities. But our state-funded school system is designed in such a way that some children are blocked from their local school simply because of their parents' beliefs. Others are sent to illegal, unregulated schools & denied a proper education.

It's good to be on a platform where people express normal human empathy and dismay at the horrific synagogue attack rather than on one where they weaponise it for their grubby, divisive purposes and try to turn a tragedy into an opportunity

Starmer to end asylum โ€˜golden ticketโ€™ of resettlement and family reunion rights People granted asylum will have to earn right to invite family in plan charities call โ€˜straight from populist playbookโ€™

Labour has a chance now to turn a corner and win support from people who want it to succeed. Or it can continue with this type of vicious populist filth and alienate everyone. It's your call guys.

IT'S HERE. I am legit overjoyed to be unleashing this shit on the world: Origin Story Season 7 has arrived.

For the first time, we're doing an entire season as one story.

This is the history of socialism, from the French Revolution to the fall of the Berlin Wall

This is the standard approach through history: The community of the free. We've always had people insist on liberty, but only for their group, typically white men with property. Progressive liberalism was about rolling out those rights for everyone, a process that is now being reversed.

We must tackle rising tide of racism and homophobia claiming to be free speech, says Streeting Exclusive: Health secretary says Labour cannot afford to ignore far-right protests as Starmer under pressure

This needs to be followed by action, particularly on protecting trans people, but the rhetoric is extremely welcome www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Trans women are not and never have been a threat to women. Indeed they are women in and of themselves. If if you cared about statistics, you would understand this, rather you're just spouting the same rubbish as the rest of you terfs. Kindly go comment elsewhere please

I do, but I'm struggling to see how trans women, who are women btw, have a negative impact on cis women, or their rights. We're all trying to live in this patriarchal society as best we can & should be united... unfortunately people such as yourself cannot grasp this.

Fairly hard to enjoy my life when people like you negate my very existence. Perhaps try compassion and empathy once in a while... Sorry if that sounds condescending.

Ahh you're one of the not so lesser spotted bio-essentialist terfs. How sad that your life is so monotone, perhaps update your understanding of biology from when you left schooling.

In my experience, life is a messy and glorious multicoloured experience, one I urge you to embrace.

Women's & girls rights are not trampled on by the rights of trans people. Trans women are women & trans men are men.

When I was announced as the lead in a Doctor Who spinoff in 2023 Graham Linehan tweeted about me for TWO DAYS, tagging the BBC and others to say that I am pro-child abuse and they shouldn't work with me.

Yes, an incoming illiberal and radical UK government would have absolute constitutional power Only good fortune has prevented previous governments from misusing our constitutional arrangements more than they did

Profoundly important from @davidallengreen.bsky.social. The lack of meaningful restraints against executing power in our system leaves us utterly exposed in the face of a Reform government. They could do whatever they want.

Not even 9am. So far on Radio 6, the news bulletins have featured a mother saying her daughters aren't safe because of asylum seekers, a Tory politician lambasting Labour for crossing numbers & Badenoch encouraging councils to lodge legal challenges against hotels. An endless stream of hateful bile.
