This ruling must not stand. Please join me in supporting Good Law Project's challenge.
🏳️‍⚧️ NEW 🏳️‍⚧️

We believe the Supreme Court – which disgracefully refused to hear from trans people before its decision last week – has placed the UK in breach of its obligations under the Human Rights Act.

So we’re readying a challenge – join us:

Remember when we were told the stock market would crash, unemployment and inflation would rise, our allies wouldn’t be taking us seriously anymore, the war in Ukraine would still be going, and the ceasefire in Israel would collapse if Kamala Harris became president? Good thing we avoided that.

Turns out that those multimillionaires who funded the Orange Ape’s campaign

Now don’t like what he’s doing, despite him being completely frank about what he intended to do.

Can only assume they’re stupid.

And we’re all paying

If the local slimming club isn’t called Marlborough lites then they should all be ashamed of themselves.

Well that’s it, our first AGM at the home of football. It means a lot to be able to do this at @torquayunited.bsky.social It says it all when we walked up the stairs to the cove and saw this on the screen.

‘Welcome’

Don’t think we need to say any more.

The hilarious thing is she was probably advised to.

As usual, politicians are scared of even touching on the subject of anything negative about the monarchy.

Well done @vicderbyshire.bsky.social

It’s a fair question that deserves a fair answer. Royals shouldn’t be exempt from inheritance tax.

The fish rots from the head.

"King Charles can choose to pay inheritance tax if he wishes. Is it fair?

"I'm not going to comment on individual taxpayer’s situation."

Treasury Minister James Murray responds to @vicderbyshire.bsky.social on whether it is fair that King Charles can choose to pay inheritance tax.

I was in Poland last year. On one night it was -29. It was way below zero every day. Mostly in double digits.

The trains worked.

Why are our trains so bad in the UK?

Today’s weather isn’t unprecedented. It’s winter. It gets cold.
