If Britain is now resetting the clock on trans rights, where will that leave us? | Gaby Hinsliff There is both joy and dismay after the supreme court judgment. Compassion and leadership are really needed now, says Guardian columnist Gaby Hinsliff

@gabyhinsliff.bsky.social agree with this. There needs to be more empathetic and reasonable accommodation than some are suggesting. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Is the Trump admin following a script written by @aiannucci.bsky.social

This would be hysterical if it weren't so scary.

@papercutsshow.bsky.social really sorry to hear you're closing up shop. Have really enjoyed your shows. Feels like all you needed was more time to get established.

Be clear about what Trump and Musk’s aid axe will do: people will face terror and starve, many will die | Gordon Brown The decimation of USAid is already having a terrible effect in some of the poorest places on the planet. It damages America: it will harm us all, says Gordon Brown, the UN’s special envoy for global e...

This new stance is not just β€œAmerica first” but β€œAmerica first and only”

Difficult to underestimate the damage this will do.

Trump seems to genuinely believe a trade imbalance is the same as a subsidy. Bizarre.

Even in twitter's better days (before you could buy a louder voice) I saw few examples of mind changing. Occasionally though you could have a decent debate, but now all is drowned out by the blue tick army.

I assume you also didn't get into journalism to fight with blue tick trolls. Surely engaging with less foaming is more rewarding?

The problem with the US's presidential system is it's almost impossible to get him removed, regardless of how much it falls apart. They really need to rip up their constitution and start again.

Depressing how easily some take to overt racism once the behavioural bar is removed.

For a post to get community noted it must reach a critical mass. Disinformation strategies could be easily constructed wide and thin to avoid noting.

Ministers resist calls to block Musk donations to Farage’s Reform UK Government fears moves to curb any potential cash from the tech titan could backfire and play into Reform UK’s hands

This mess is *entirely* of Labour’s own making

In opposition they promised to end sleaze and tighten money in politics.

They could have laid out plans for this as soon as they got into office

Instead they prevaricated. And this is the outcome. So depressing

There is no lofty argument for allowing foreign interference in our democracy.

The Philadelphia corridor only came into existence as part of the disengagement agreement. Didn't exist as a concept in 1979.

Didn't Israel refuse a ceasefire unless they controlled the Philadelphia corridor?

I had that issue. Its a bug. If Ursula VDL goes to her profile, edits handle, but just re-types it as is and saves, this will fix it,

very glad we seem to have come to a consensus, and that it isnt promoting a social media monopoly.
