Polanski is talking nonsense about wealth taxes.

The Spectator (owned by GBNews owner Paul Marshall - estimated wealth of £800 million) doesn’t like taxing wealth fairly.

I wonder how they got to this editorial decision?

Let’s tax wealth fairly, fund front line services & make hope normal again.

told to ignore experts, and dismiss those who defend our freedoms as loony leftys and traitorous judges.
I fear we dismiss this too easily, and reassure ourselves it can't happen here when it already is.

They won't just use religious extremism. They didn't use that here to go after trans folks. They'll use money and whisper campaigns and play to people's arrogance and ignorance.
The UK doesn't have the same level of anti intellectualism and anti-science propaganda as the US, but we're already being

These people firmly believe that only cis het rich white men get control of their own bodies. For everyone else, there will be "concerns" and "sincerely held beliefs" till one day the rights and access we've had to healthcare will seem like a fairy tale, if we're even allowed to remember it at all.

📢Scotland's land belongs to the people, not the super-rich land hoarders.

And white women? You're not safe. Your safety lies with everyone you've been told is a threat, or weird, or broken. Narrow, non-threatening femininity is a trap. You will never fit that cage, no matter how hard you try, or how well you think you're doing.

Noo!

I prefer “anti-fascist“ for a host of reasons and this is a nice practical one.

something quite brain-melting about the hard right's position apparently now being "we hate all Muslims and distrust Muslim states, aside from that one Muslim place that still has slavery because that sounds fun"

But I didn’t and still don’t like making a cult of women’s knowledge, preening ourselves on knowing things men don’t know, women’s deep irrational wisdom, women’s instinctive knowledge of Nature, and so on. All that all too often merely reinforces the masculinist idea of women as primitive and inferior – women’s knowledge as elementary, primitive, always down below at the dark roots, while men get to cultivate and own the flowers and crops that come up into the light. But why should women keep talking baby talk while men get to grow up? Why should women feel blindly while men get to think? Ursula K. Le Guin

it just feels like.

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.

Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.

Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.
