Antivaxer to lead US study of link between vaccines and autism — The Times and The Sunday Times A researcher who claims that there is a link between vaccines and autism in children has been asked to lead a US government study on the issue. Much of David Geier’s work has been discredited and he w...

Dismantling the Department of Education has nothing to do with improving outcomes for our kids, it’s simply about taking away resources from our public schools.

Time for Sky to get its head out of the clouds Pressure mounts on Ofcom and Sky to take action to end GB News’ campaign of hate.

“Sky can continue to fund GB News to perpetuate dangerous lies about the LGBT+ community or it can claim to value those communities. But it can't do both.” www.campaignlive.co.uk/article/time...

"A whole new level of cruelty": Health experts decry "devastating" cuts to HIV treatment programs The Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation said the latest cuts will deprive 350,000 people of HIV treatment.

“What’s transpired over the last three or four days just takes it to a whole new level of cruelty and inhumanity and, frankly, a whole new level of stupidity in doing this is the most non-strategic way.” Tens of thousands of people will die as a result of this action.

Might save a life.

The Evidence for Gender-affirming Medical Interventions for Adolescent Gender Dysphoria Research suggests gender-affirming medical care results in better mental health. Here are the studies.

LGBT people have always existed. It will be foolish to think we are free of history #LGBT+historymonth #LGBTQhistorymonth

Blimey - the most aggressively right wing and hateful network in the UK being funded by Marks and Spencer!

I often talk about how Good Law Project tries to speak the only language that politicians understand: that of political pain. We are now trying to speak the only language that GB News understands: financial pain. This is how you help. 👇🏻

Infant mortality increased along with births in most U.S. states with abortion bans in the first 18 months after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, according to new research. Babies who were Black, lived in Southern states or had fetal birth defects died at the highest rates.

'I am only asking for basic respect' says trans doctor in NHS changing room row A tribunal hears Dr Beth Upton denied being a man multiple times in a row over who can use women's changing rooms.

What Dr Beth Upton is being put through in this process is horrendous. The far right pos who is doing this to her ought to be ashamed of herself, but we know full well that these horrors never feel shame. Absolutely foul. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Several years ago, in an interview the Guardian censored, Judith Butler predicted that "Terfs will not be part of the contemporary struggle against fascism."

Janice Turner and The Times have proven Judith right.

DOGE Staffer Resigns Over Racist Posts A staffer for Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency whose access to U.S. Treasury payment systems was approved by a federal judge on Thursday has links to a deleted social-media account that...

I linked DOGE staffer Marko Elez to a deleted X account that advocated repealing the Civil Rights Act, backed a “eugenic immigration policy,” and wrote, “You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity."

He just resigned. www.wsj.com/tech/doge-st...

Thank you Royal College of Anaesthetics to invite me a s speaker this afternoon , raising awareness about trans healthcare @rcoanews.bsky.social @rcgp.bsky.social @bma.org.uk #transhealth #LGBT

This is good to see, but also feels a little hypocritical given @bmj.com recently desk-rejected a "letter to the editor" by myself and colleagues responding to significant disinformation and bias in its journalistic reporting on trans healthcare.

Here’s a shocking finding, gen Z: democracy isn’t perfect | David Mitchell According to a new poll, half of our 13- to 27-year-olds can’t see the point of all those time-wasting elections and parliaments. Why do they not know that authoritarianism is worse?

This Govt has raised tuition fees, won't reopen Erasmus, is killing their trans friends, isn't serious about climate change, won't tax the rich, and has done nothing on housing. And it's elected and pretends to be left. And you ask why Gen Zs don't like democracy? www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

HIV, transgender care and other federal websites go dark Several CDC pages were taken down Friday afternoon. Some redirected users to other sections of the site.

This is a digital book burning of vital and critical data and information.

“having met with Bayswater Parents, I think that's been a – I'd go so far as to say – traumatic experience for some of those families, and that's really stuck with me.” Wes Streeting

I can tell Wes a few things about trauma, but it’s as if I, and Alice’s story, don’t exist to him. Transphobic ass.

I would like to be explicit here. Bayswater as not *just* a conversion therapy group. They are explicitly a child abuse enabling group.

In the Bayswater discord, parents talked about destroying their kids possessions and blocking access to childline.

This is what Trump’s cruelty and chaos has unleashed.

Kemi Badenoch is bad at PMQs. Again While her choice of topics has narrowed, her inability to land blows on a PM with a current approval rating of -42 is mindblowing

White House $50m condom claim doesn't hold up under scrutiny A former Biden administration official called the claim of having blocked $50m in condom shipments to Gaza a ‘feverish dream’

Spreading fake news and undermining the suffering of millions of people in Gaza. Another new low in the ongoing cruelty by the Trump government. #Gaza #cruelty #FreePalestine

Peter Mandelson calls past remarks about Trump ‘ill-judged and wrong’ — The Guardian Labour peer says president has won ‘fresh respect’ ahead of expected confirmation as ambassador to the US

It’s totally pathetic as Trump is going to think less not more of him for it and it keeps lowering the Overton window for monsters and dictators. Mandelson’s words won’t do the UK and the world any favours .It’s his personal ambition he did this for, not Britain. @teamlabouruk.bsky.social
