This is honestly outrageous.
Emily Maitlis brags about her, Deb Cohen, and Hannah Barnes getting the Tavistock GIDS service shut down.

What she doesn't talk about is how Newsnight journalists manufactured outrage and concocted "scandals" based on unethical journalism - which they were called out for, but tried to hide...

BBC News' report on the Darlington nurses just now was utterly disgraceful.

Misgendering the trans person throughout, presenting it entirely from the complainants' perspective and including no trans voices, using transphobic tropes and making the trans woman out to be a pervert. Impartial, my arse!

Poppies & cornflowers became symbols of 11 Nov thanks to women forgotten by history. Every year on the anniversary of 1918 Armistice, English-speaking countries traditionally wear a poppy, while the French don a cornflower. This custom was intended to raise funds for wounded war veterans

My cishet white RP-speaking son hates walking through the flagged-up areas in his uni city, while feeling very much at home among, for example, the fireworks of Diwali a few weeks back. If he feels uncomfortable, I can’t imagine what it’s like for anyone with a different skin tone, accent etc.

Reform's response is that what they oppose nationally, they do not oppose locally: “Whilst at a national level we oppose second home council tax premiums, we accept that councils have far fewer levers at their disposal than a national government when it comes to addressing urgent housing shortages.”

The EHRhas sent a new draft Code of Practice which would lead to the exclusion of trans people from public life.

The decision now is up to this government, will they sign a trans bathroom ban in secret?

Want to know why the prisons system seems to be suddenly falling apart?

Well, it's not sudden. It's just suddenly being REPORTED. This rot was a deliberate policy choice, and I kept the receipts. Because I'm not the BBC.

These are the people who forged Electoral College vote certificates and tried to pass them off as real, right in front of the whole country.
