Talk about projection - Dmitry Medvedev says the German Chancellor is acting out of a sense of revenge for the crushing defeat in World War II and calls him a Nazi.

It is, of course, Russia's leadership that is dominated by fascism and is acting out of a sense of revenge for defeat in the Cold War.

It is a huge complication, of their own making.
They could cast him adrift; maybe they fear that would create an even worse impression - hard to imagine.
IANAL but a number of different lawyers seem confused as to how Jane Russell can represent both, now that the internal inv. has cleared SP.

I wonder what shocks and suprises #PeggieVsNHSFife will bring us today?

Who will sit in the Chair of Truth? (Truth being whatever you self-identify it as, of course).

What new form of corporate kamikaze will NHS Fife think of to make the job of Jane Russell even less practicable? #popcorn

As most people are now aware, NHS Fife could rest their case, call no more witnesses and allow the judges to proceed to judgement.
Why they do not do that is unclear.

From the notes of the internal investigation. It appears it was Dr Upton who was trying to smear SP by including in his complaint incidents that never happened so who can trust his word as to what happened in the changing rooms. This is truly shocking.

It's open-goal time for arch-unionist like Mr Massie, thanks to the incompetent and incomprehensible policies of Sturgeon and her adherents.
All the gains of 2014 have been squandered on stupid soundbites and senseless slogans promulgating pseudo scientific claptrap.

If MPsโ€™ salaries had grown at the same rate as junior doctorsโ€™ since 2010, they would earn about ยฃ72,312 today โ€” roughly ยฃ19,000 less than their actual 2024 salary of ยฃ91,346

That's why doctors are balloting on potential strike action

โ€ฆ at what point are we going to recognise that many of these delays arenโ€™t just long waits, they are denials of NHS care, created because politicians have intentionally undermined the NHS and enabled profit creation for major corporations?

Fight for healthcare for all. Fight for the NHS.

Do you mean "the North East" of the UK?
If you mean England, make it clear you're talking about England.

If the law hasn't changed (hint: it hasn't), then we can modify your earlier quote: "Trans men - biological women who look every inch a man - *HAVE ALWAYS HAD* to use women's spaces by law."
So where is the fault/who is at fault here?
Who was misrepresenting the law?

๐Ÿค” Scottish Labour are currently running Facebook ads through a Facebook page that isnโ€™t using their branding (around ยฃ20k spent so far). This is a technique the Tories have used in the past on leaflets due to the toxicity of their brand in Scotland. www.thenational.scot/news/2511719...

You still seem to be labouring under the misapprehension that something was changed last week.
Nothing changed; the existing law was merely made clear, which was only necessary because so many bad actors had been deliberately spreading misinformation about what the 2010 EA said.

Let's be clear on what you're saying.
You say that this week's judgement: that "sex" in the 2010 Equality Act refers only and always to biological sex, and which makes no alteration to any existing law or any existing rights, is going to encourage bad men to take advantage of women-only facilities.

18.04.2025 18:50 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 3    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

I'd be concerned if you were correct.

That would indicate that you have very little understanding of the wider ramifications of the sex/gender question.
Which, in fairness, was the obvious conclusion to be taken from your original post.๐Ÿ‘Œ

Presumably, you don't think sport is important, or that fairness in sport and equal opportunity in sport is important?
Do you also dispute that male advantage in sport persists, regardless of levels of testosterone?
I don't have a comment on your bathroom q, or on the accuracy of it's premise.

It's the issue that first got me interested in the debate, about ten years ago. And I note you haven't answered the question.
