Not that I was planning to visit the US any time soon but this has really set the seal on it...it's not the social media that bothers me, although that is an issue, but more the potential requirement for biometric data. Er...you can fuck right off, Donny.

The irony of conversing with a right winger in the UK, who claims that the BBC and Channel 4 News are biased then cites GB News as their source, which is basically just Reform UK's propaganda channel.

A short but very good piece on the real threat to women and girls in the UK, reinforcing what most of us already knew - in the vast majority of cases the abuser is known to their victims and it's not an asylum seeker.
