British journalists are always like "I only had 4 annual european holidays growing up, because my father, the Baron, was a bit of a cheapskate, so really I am working class" then 5 minutes later decree an actual working class person a faker because they drink coffee

Readers shouldn't be tasked with this. Reporters being flip about these lines also makes life harder for all literary nonfiction features writers who do follow the rules.

She's not an expert. She was chosen to perform the review because they couldn't find anyone with actual expertise in the area who would have produced the desired outcome of providing an official rationale for government measures to remove trans people from society altogether

I'm aware that a lot of people find it fun to attack minorities @news.rte.ie. But we're talking about children here.

Kids are dead because of Hilary Cass, her transphobia, and her decision to lie about medical research. Please have some decency and remove this article from publication.

hilary cass has no expertise in any field relevant to gender affirming care or the endocrine system or psychology or psychiatry.

she's literally just a transphobe hand picked by kemi badenoch to rubbish decades of fully peer-reviewed medical science.

it's a massive scandal and the dam will break.

Join Limerick @ipsc.bsky.social Wednesday 25th February, 7pm, Absolute Hotel. Palestinian citizens of Israel face an escalating campaign of repression, criminalisation and state-backed efforts to erase not only their Palestinian identity, but their very presence in their homeland #FreePalestine

Simon Harris on the radio trying to muddy the waters around the Occupied Territories Bill. The one side only ceasefire in Gaza is irrelevant. Israel is still robbing Palestinian land and installing settlers against International Law. They shouldn't be allowed to profit from it.

What they mean by the term is "white people stuff"

it’s hot if you alt text your art

there should be an oscar for bluesky story arc and @notalawyer.bsky.social should win

New data shows surge in trans kids’ suicides following healthcare rollbacks | Good Law Project A freedom of information request by Good Law Project has found that deaths by suicide of trans young people under 18 surged following the withdrawal of gender-affirming healthcare

No mention of the increased rate in suicides amongst trans kids since care changed after the report came out.

I was at a party and few years ago when this discussion came up. The only opponents of UBI in the room were the people who said they themselves would "abuse" it.
They assumed the rest of us are as lazy as they are so they'd prefer that nobody has it. It's nonsense.

Still talking about a review that has been disproven and claiming a non expert is an expert is shameful journalism

Interesting that there's no name attributed to this piece which speaks uncritically about the Cass review, a biased & unscientific piece of propaganda that resulted in the death of dozens of children.

What's the play here RTE? Stoke up a bit of transphobia in Ireland?

If you want to fight fascism, you must practice disability justice.

If you’re claiming to be on the left but believe disabled people are “expendable”, you’re aligning with fascists.

If you are against tyranny but refer to people like me as “a drain”, you’re carrying water for the Nazis.

Quite right and if the FAI insists on going ahead, the players should refuse.

FAI Boycott Israel Games! Ireland should not play UEFA games against Israel. We should demand Israel are banned from the competition. Sign and share the petition if you agree

A few people have said, is it not better to play and beat them than boycott? And the answer is no. Playing them legitimises their place in civil society. If the FAI don't step up, the players need to come together and refuse to play

Screenshot of a Wall Street Journal opinion article titled “A Guaranteed Income Won’t Stop People From Wanting to Work,” by Abhijit V. Banerjee and Esther Duflo. A subheading says evidence from programs around the world suggests basic income does not make recipients lazier. Below the headline is a photo of several women sitting outdoors at a table working.

"Not only don't people work less when they are guaranteed an income, they might actually put in more effort at work. And the fact that they have more money to spend leads to the creation of more jobs."

Damn, they really were

I suppose it's at least a good sign that they're moving on from AI

I hate this

There's no such thing as non-political art!!! It's the whole entire point of art!!! If you try to claim your art doesn't mean anything, that in itself is a meaning. Staying apolitical is a political choice and a political statement. If it's not political it's not art, it's just a piece of paper

Pressure mounts over mentally ill people held in prisons In the days following RTÉ Investigates' two-part documentary on acute psychiatric care, questions about how the State treats its most vulnerable patients moved quickly to what needs to happen next.

Mentally ill people are being sent to prison because there isn't enough space in our psychiatric hospitals

Our medical system is so close to collapse. We need more doctors, more nurses, and more physical infrastructure
