Some people on BlueSky are very upset at me for posting this. They're claiming it's all sensationalist lies, and that I'm trying to make trans people scared. That's really upsetting because everything I said below is true. Labour is trying to ban us from all single-sex spaces, this is a fact.
🚨 BREAKING | Wes Streeting confirms Labour is actively working to BAN trans women AND trans men from female spaces, describing their presence as "unpleasant".
Streeting confirmed to MumsNet that Labour aims to exclude ALL trans people from single-sex spaces.

Please. If you can't *clearly* say that *israel's* genocide is bad this late in 2025 then what is even the point of this sort of thing?
The new episode of Philosophy Tube is about the founding of the USA, settler colonialism, and how Thomas Jefferson made excuses for it.

why is the labour government allowing far right anti-trans groups like 'sex matters' and 'lgb alliance' to dictate policy?

The Trump administration has announced that the US will rewrite past climate reports, in a clear attempt to erase scientific history and undermine the consensus on human-caused climate change.

yes he was, and he immediately followed it up by committing a lot of crimes and otherwise attempting to destroy our entire system of government and replace it with autocracy
just because people made a mistake doesn’t mean we can’t fix it

Realising I'm agnostic after so much of my life dedicated to God has been having an utterly bizarre effect on my brain. Like, I keep questioning if it's even okay to be thinking this because I don't want to turn my back on Jesus. I just think that the ground my faith rested on has slowly collapsed.

European Herring Gull Portrait. Gulls are not often considered nice or pretty birds, being loud and bold in cities and beaches. But they do look quite stunning if you look closer, with their snowy white heads, grey “suits” and bright yellow and red beaks.
