I note that the excremental Lawrence Fox has been whining about @zarahsultana.bsky.social wearing a poppy.
He would like her to "go home" (neat trick if she can manage it, seeing as she was born in birmingham).
He also objects to her wearing a poppy, seemingly because that is for true brits only.

Boy! Does Starmer/New Labour know how to seize the moment!
After a decade or more of frozen politics, under which austerity and punishing the masses somehow became common currency, we have arrived at a crossroads.
An inflection point.

A District Judge has cleared Tommy Robinson on a terror charge because he found Robinson had a protected belief. How does that pass the 5th limb of the Grainger test?

www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crim...
![Grainger criteria
To qualify as a 'philosophical belief' under the Equality Act, the belief must satisfy the five criteria set out at para 24 in Grainger plc v Nicholson [2010] and mirrored in the Equality and Human Rights Commission Code of Practice 2011. These are that:
The belief must be genuinely held
The belief must not simply be an opinion or viewpoint based on the present state of information available
The belief must concern a weighty and substantial aspect of human life and behaviour
The belief must attain a certain level of cogency, seriousness, cohesion and importance
The belief must be worthy of respect in a democratic society, not be incompatible with human dignity and not be in conflict with the fundamental rights of others.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:noqaydlcbia5upq6va2p2znw/bafkreidbknxirxpcidqg6kgd7ejugwdwzncsxcm7foh6wxc5rf5qbs6pny@jpeg)

Putting this out here for #TransgenderAwarenessMonth becausea) i am increasingly sceptical of the usefulness of the season and b) allies with no heart are as much an issue as outright bigots.

A week ago: all of the media explained how Charles could not do this and an Act of Parliament was needed.
Yesterday: Charles did it.

Beginning to think tis tome to turn off autocorrect, as the proportion of posts containing wrong words introduced BY it reaches ridiculous levels.
This morning alone, i got "flag staggers," for shaggers.
And "emissions" when referring to a friend called Emi.

Lucy Powell has been elected Deputy Leader of the Labour Party on a 16% turnout of the membership. See? Even THEY don’t care. Unfortunately Bridget Philipson no longer needs to worry about the damage to her prospects when she tables the EHRC’s Trans Exclusion From Toilets and Societies […]

Just putting this out there, because already we are seeing folks pretend Powell and phillipson had no significant differences, and once more erasing trans folk.

No real difference?
Nah. Because standing up for the humanity of despised minorities like trans people is so easily dismissed by "clever" bigots in the Labour Party...

Nothing typifies the corruption of UK politics more than the fact that after she has spent 5 years trashing the EHRC, barmy Baroness Falkner will no doubt walk away with a peerage.

Fairly obvious out-take from yesterday's cheese by-election.
Despite the proliferation of political parties, voters still divide left vs right.
In most seats now, the right role is no longer filled by tories, but Reform.
And the left role? Anyone - Plaid, SNP, Greens, Lib Dems - but Labour!

So. I was thinking of writing a piece about a woman - a writer and maker of films - who did very well for herself.
And then did rather less well, as things she'd said and done and written came out.
In the beginning it all went so well...
