Can we go back to the days when politicians said that they really wanted to help people but it’s very hard and takes time, rather than saying that they want to hurt people and can do it quickly?

This is such important journalism - Every mainstream paper should pick this up (with full credit) and shout from the rooftops about it. How dare he. Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government says “Exploitative behaviour is completely unacceptable". So what are you going to do about it?.
“It broke my heart, that was my savings towards a new car,” one woman who paid Milne tens of thousands of pounds told us. “He has just wiped me out.”

Every feminist I know supports their sisters, cis and trans, and their non-binary siblings, concerned with domestic violence, public safety, equal pay, employment protection, access to healthcare, and other discrimination issues. Obsessing over who uses which loo isn't feminism. It's bigotry.
