On Intersex Remembrance Day, we remember past harms and celebrate progress. Europe has taken a historic step and adopted the first-ever Recommendation protecting intersex people’s human rights. Here’s Kitty Anderson, co-chair of European intersex organisation @oiieurope.org, on what this means.

84% of trans people polled by YouGov said Britain is “fairly unsafe” or “very unsafe” for trans people. A terrifying story - founded on actual data - which the BBC still refused to carry.

Court convicts two donors for illegally diverting £100k to Eurosceptic think tank run by Nigel Farage's girlfriend. She definitely doesn't sound like the sort of person who would get involved with tax fraud on a house purchase.

A white journalist at a white BBC has made what looks like a hit piece about a white writer charged with racism by a number of writers of colour. The twist? The BBC attacks the writers of colour.

Solidarity with all Black and Brown people fighting to be treated with dignity. Screw the racist BBC.

A year ago, Donald Trump was re-elected to the White House. Since then, trust in the US has changed dramatically - we have the latest numbers and analysis ⬇️ 👀

These Trump fact checks are getting kind of long. Can we shorten things up on those columns and just tell us which parts are true? I feel like that would save a lot of time.

Nigel Farage Says Minimum Wage Should Be Cut for Young People The Reform leader said cutting the minimum wage for young people would boost business, as he attacked plans to raise taxes on the wealthy

Nigel Farage Says Minimum Wage Should Be Cut for Young People

The Reform leader said cutting the minimum wage for young people would boost business, as he attacked plans to raise taxes on the wealthy

Who would have guessed

Cut benefits, cut minimum wage, raise retirement age, means test pensions, get rid of the NHS.

Why are you voting for Farage?

🤬💙🤬💙✌️

House Speaker Mike Johnson signed bill cutting $186B from SNAP in July 2025 Users shared this true claim amid uncertainty regarding whether Americans would receive federal food benefits during the 2025 government shutdown.

It's no coincidence, they targeted SNAP months ago.

DO NOT BE DISTRACTED & STAY LOUD!!!

TRUMP & EPSTEIN ARE SEX TRAFFICKERS!!! I’m gonna post this every day so nobody forgets exactly who Pedophile Trump is and why the Epstein files have suddenly disappeared.

3. Europe at a Crossroads
Verhofstadt: “The EU is one of the greatest political achievements in history.”
Let’s not take it for granted. Verhofstadt warns of rising authoritarianism, global instability, and the need for unity. Europe must respond — together.

2. @johnswinney.bsky.social responds:
Scotland’s First Minister calls Verhofstadt’s message “a wake-up call.”
Shared values, shared challenges — time to act together.

1. Guy Verhofstadt in Edinburgh
“Europe’s political moderates must urgently counter threats to stability and prosperity.”
A powerful call to action from Guy Verhofstadt at the EMiS annual dinner. The time for complacency is over.

The people on the right getting mad at Tucker Carlson for hosting Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes on his podcast don’t seem to have gotten mad at all at Donald Trump for hosting Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes at his home for dinner. Funny that.

Andrew Tate has been charged with rape, human trafficking, controlling prostitution and actual bodily harm. Nigel Farage described him as "an important voice for young men". That tells you all you need to know about Farage's moral compass.

What a punk-ass racist piece of shit

Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Pennsylvania has an important Supreme Court race coming up on Tuesday, November 4. If you live in the Keystone State, or know someone who does, vote YES to retain three justices who will protect your fundamental rights and freedoms.

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

It just keeps getting better.

"After more than a decade of engaging in shameless bothsidesism, whataboutism, and fanatical, greed-driven appeals to far-right eyeballs, America’s corporate, legacy media appears poised to fall victim to the grave, fascist threat it helped bring about"

"The Right in 2025 Sounds a Lot Like the Nazis in 1925"

Today’s far right may know it’s wrong to talk about a “superior race,” so it just frames it as a “superior culture” instead:

It's not just immigrants he hates.
It's women.
It's poor people.
It's Disabled People.
He even hates the people who vote for him, just like Trump.

Charles should be heckled everywhere he goes, Andrew is receiving millions from the taxpayer, all while accused of the most serious crimes and Charles lets it continue, and hides it.

I see that the United States' peculiar brand of Christian Nationalism includes judging the poor for needing SNAP benefits (judging is something Jesus said *not to* do) but not helping the poor with SNAP benefits (helping the poor is something Jesus told them *to* do).

Media must cover — not cover up — Trump’s unfitness The president benefits from the failure to focus on his broken brain

Trump’s “mental faculties are crumbling like blue cheese, and major media need to write prominent stories about this alarming problem – not just stick a sentence into the 14th paragraph of a news story.”
My free Stop the Presses newsletter.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.
