βAt no point did this fact ever make the front pages of British newspapers, or lead news bulletins on the BBC.β
Youβd think the service level agreement/contract would/could have specified reduced pricing for non-commercial hire. A serious lack of foresight from a so-called progressive council. And a failure in imagination of not asking a not-for-profit to run these venues for greater social value.

Itβll be hugely damaging to individuals inc in short term never mind longer term risk to individual and population health, and shockingly expensive in more ways than I have space for in this post.

Thanks for sharing. I donβt understand the strategic rationale behind current covid/SARS-CoV-2 policy decision making. Whether in the UK (where I am) or the US. Itβs a total rejection of reality* inc normal public health processes. It makes zero sense.

Polanski will get more Lab recruits, and that increases Farage's lead.
08.11.2025 14:24 β π 83 π 29 π¬ 4 π 12οΈβ£The BBC isn't alone in referring to male criminals as women, or using female pronouns to describe them, when they claim to have a female "gender identity".
Women rarely commit violent or sexual crimes, so this practice gives a totally false impression.
No one can change sex, despite appearances.
1οΈβ£Wouldn't normally share anything from GB news, but listening to Peter talking BS, I had to.
This was because BBC News is accused of not making the sex of criminal perpetrators or sports people clear when they claim to have a gender identity, so confusing the audience.

Yikes. Nominations for the British Independent Film Awards. Two women and 10 men. How do you think that gender-neutral thing is going, folks?
03.11.2025 22:51 β π 13 π 4 π¬ 2 π 0How does taking cross sex hormones and undergoing extreme body modification make a transwoman not a biological male? We can accept transwomen as transwomen without pretending someoneβs underlying biology has changed and they have actually changed sex - a biological impossibility.

Whatever your political persuasion, whatever your ethical boundaries, surely there is point beyond which the sheer misery inflicted upon ordinary people by exploitative bastards like Andrew Milne should make us question how society ought to protect itself from such people.

This is a vital step in recognising the role violent porn plays in shaping attitudes and driving dangerous behaviours, as well as regulating an industry that promotes and profits from VAWG.
