In this story, there is a lot of support for trans people that you rarely see covered in the media unless they're being attacked. Businesses and individuals all standing up and saying 'I will not be a part of this' and I think that needs to be highlighted because it can feel lonely out there.

‘Carnage of concern and upset’: Women’s Institute groups close after transgender ban
Members warn NFWI decision has opened up toxic culture that deters younger women from joining
At least 12 Women’s Institute (WI) groups are closing or considering closure after the organisation barred transgender women from membership.
Members say more groups are likely to close, and that the federation’s decision has opened up a toxic, traditionalist culture that will deter younger women from joining. Continue reading...

I hadn’t realised that the Epstein files are full of chat about London as the place for rich swine to sue and crush people reporting on their activities. Completely blunt about it, sounds like: if you’re a rich criminal who needs to squash someone, you should always sue them in Britain.

Quite striking how the argument the Green Party have been making for some time now - and getting called all sorts of silly names for by the Labour Government - is the most popular position with the British public.

Strikingly even current conservative voters are most likely to say it’s best for UK national security to align with the EU - along with majorities of Lib Dem, Labour and Green voters while Reform voters are more likely to say it’s safer with the Commonwealth/CANZUK or the US

But then her cousins are just like "Oh, you're a boy? OK. Let's have an adventure". They accept them for who they are, pretty much immediately. And they went on to appear in TWENTY more books up to 1963, and stayed as George the whole time, and nobody tried to ban them because of it.

My thoughts are that my basic political requests were always 1) less deliberately horrible, cruel and vicious political/media culture 2) more and better public services and 3) far less complicity in America’s horrifying wars. I note this has been regarded as insanely extreme ideological lunacy.

Dual British nationals have been warned they may be denied boarding a flight, ferry or train to the UK after 25 February unless they carry a valid British passport.
The warning by the Home Office comes amid scores of complaints from British people living or travelling abroad who have suddenly found themselves at risk of not being allowed into the country.

Love that the High Court ruled that prescribing Palestine Action as a terrorist group was unlawful but as they also ruled the ban must remain in place until a future hearing, the BBC must remind its reader that expressing support for them will get you arrested.

Again, this is transcribed direct from Cass. And *why* do we need to be careful? Because Cass doesn't like the idea that a child could turn out to be trans. Because bigotry.
Of course NOT accommodating social transition if requested is EQUALLY an active intervention. A transphobic punishment.
