"Gender critical" activists have been complaining for years about how unsafe they feel at their own events, because of the people they have to ally with. I remember one woman complaining about "Dangerous Far Right blokes" at one GC rally who was threatened with legal action if she kept complaining!

Zack Polanski blames both Conservative and Labour governments for regression in trans rights (EXCLUSIVE) Zack Polanski pointed to Conservative and Labour governments, saying there has been an “acceleration of that regression," at Trans Mission.

"It’s particularly horrendous to me when you have someone from within our own community who demonises a minority group. I don’t know what’s going on in Wes Streeting’s head, but what I do know is it’s terrifying for trans people,” he said.

In 1968 Finland banned for profit education, the few private schools that exist in Finland have to reinvest any profit they make or pay it back to parents.

It has been in the Top 3 in education for the last 20 years.

There should be no profit in education or healthcare.

If they were intelligent enough to be embarrassed at how objectively pathetic this is, they wouldn't be GC in the first place.

GC drivel

Says more about the nature of fanatical, obsessive hate than anything else.

Never heard of the Sugarbabes or Sophie Ellis-Bextor…?

lolz.

Reveals the tiny, dishonest world inhabited by GCs.

If Abba had been playing they would probably have said “some band from Scandinavia I’ve never heard of”

Spain could be the only EU country to beat energy price hikes Spain spent the last six years investing heavily in wind and solar energy, leading to some of the cheapest power prices in Europe.

Nigel Farage keeps ranting against Net Zero, saying renewables are more expensive,
This articles nails that lie.

We welcome today’s judgement from the CJEU saying that all EU Member States must provide legal gender recognition procedures to their citizens who exercised their right to move and reside in another EU Member State.

Stay tuned for more information!

Seeing proof this morning that GC transphobes aren’t just safer at trans inclusive events than trans people would be at theirs…

GC transphobes are safer at trans inclusive events than at GC events where there’s racism, factionalism and fighting!

The hate only starts in one place.

A new report shows hitting our climate targets by 2050 costs less than one oil shock costs the UK.

We need a rapid transition to clean energy to shield people & the economy from price spikes every time oil prices jump.

Some commentators still can’t connect those dots…

Not to counter your general point, with which I agree, but he was entitled to approx. half of the payout as it was a payment in lieu of three months notice.

In her first essay on trans rights, in 2020, JK Rowling told the world that a major inspiration on her thoughts on trans people was Magdalen Berns, a woman who referred to trans people as "pathetic, sick fucks." She's not "urging caution," she's a bigoted, rich activist who despises trans people.

Parliamentlive.tv Justice and Home Affairs Committee

At 11.55 here Claude Moraes correctly points out that care workers/dependants are fiscally *positive* every year until about 2045.

In response, the Home Office official misstates the facts & clearly doesn't understand either the point or the actual data/analysis

It is important that the government actually gives out - in writing - what it is claiming and not claiming about the fiscal impact of its settlement proposals. Ministers are now consistently making misleading claims, factually, in speeches outside parliament, + inadvertently in parliament itself

Even better, a continuity announcement states the lies before the interview begins. That way, the interviewee does not get the chance to lie & obfuscate again and the interview can concentrate on salient topics.

Farage claimed net migration is falling due to emigration, when 90% of the 440k fall was a 400k fall in immigration visas.

To say Nick Robinson challenged/traded anecdotes with Nigel Farage over how many people they know in London who have/ haven't experienced crime has zero relevance to my point.
