I lived next to the reservoir which inspired the Two Towers in Erdington.

Not really a claim to fame more an acceptance we couldn’t afford to rent somewhere nicer.

EHRC drops interim trans advice and urges ministers to act fast to approve its guidance Equalities watchdog removes interim response to supreme court ruling on legal definition of a woman from its website

A Whitehall source said: β€œUnfortunately this looks like the EHRC deflecting – they still haven’t sent ministers the information requested in order to assess the draft code. The EHRC should be cracking on with their job, not giving lectures on timing while government still awaits their material” πŸ”₯

I may have temporarily agreed to Labours policies and resigned from the Greens to use my political TU vote for Powell. Then I uncrossed my fingers.

And that we should sacrifice our families, friends and own rights so that they can keep doing the same with no consequence.

It is a choice to be right wing and follow Farage and even Badenoch.

Wah not his fault isn't cutting it.

And whoever said you did nuanced argument needs a dictionary.

You seem to be lost utterly and have no ethical mooring at all.

What I am hearing is that it is someone else's fault that Starmer lurched right and abandoned his voters.

Its somehow OK that they are not delivering anything because politics is hard.

You somehow believe that this is recoverable

True - now that Labour have abandoned anyone left of Thatcher it isn't even a difficult decision.

What you mean the one to respect trans people?

Do tell whet that has got to do with your excuse?

Or pick any of the ten lies he told and try your best to make up some justification as to why he is frit to deliver what he promised?

Or is him lying also Boris fault or maybe the Man in Moon?

and they are deluding themselves that there are only two options.

Honestly anyone LGBTQ can’t see any difference.

I’m never voting for a party that is actively removing mine and others rights. ”Labour” are doing just that.

Always has been. I joined about 20 years ago and it was too left radical for me. Wish I’d stayed now as I’ve caught up now.

Anyone optimistically supporting Starmers Party should be blushing but with embarrassment.

I left after he trashed all the promises he made to get elected and he has just got worse since. Why not join a left wing party?

We don't have a "Liberal" Government - we have a right wing Government which was once based on a left wing party but has jettisoned every progressive policy and all ethics.

It is right of Thatcher and Reagan - nobody would call them Liberals.

It really is. A friend of mine had a massive gambling debt and a payment agreement on that debt. They told me they had no spare money and were only just covering repayments but their credit score was excellent.

Honestly been quite surprised at the number of cheap foreign manufactured saltires on the lampposts here in Dundee. So it’s not just far right English racism’s after all. Although I get the two groups would fight like rats in a sack with each other given the chance.

Isn’t exactly difficult to position to do nothing, culture war, reform cosplay party as a continuity of the status quo erm because they are and decided not to deliver for the country because reasons.

And bearing in mind trans people are taking the UK Govt to the ECHR because they are denying them Human Rights why is that better?

I’ll wait.

Good grief. Which rock have you been hiding under. You post that on a post about how Labour are removing rights.

I assume you are one of those that thinks voting for a Labour Party right of Thatcher is something we must all do because despite them copying reform somehow reform are worse?

Better tell my wife she’s a man then. She’s better at carrying various bags of stuff than me and doing strong things. I just teach stuff of high shelvea and do IT things.

What a load of old tosh that paper is.

And you’d be right because their views repel most people.

They are taking advantage of the fact that liberation groups as optional and not an actual part of the party directly. They also took the organisation over so what now looks an AstroTERF name was originally not. They should be disaffiliated.
