Rest in peace, Bernice. You will be widely remembered for your time in helping get women priests into the @churchofengland.org and for the service you gave the ministry; within the family we remember the deeply personal ceremonies you kindly delivered to us. X

Evidence from 23 studies showed that HPV vaccination lowered the incidence of high-grade cervical precancers.

Unsurprising and good to see that many men will not suffer life changing side effects unnecessarily.

Yeah, but voters do care, Mahmood, they care a lot

They care that you’re tearing children away from the only home they’ve ever known and sentencing them to years of fear, instability, and trauma

They care that violent racist criminals like Tommy Robinson are applauding your policies
Green MP Carla Denyer accuses Shabana Mahmood of trying to "out Reform Reform" and says "toxic racist narratives and the scapegoating of migrants" are to blame for "tearing our country apart" not migrants.

Mahmood: "I couldn't care less what any other political party has to say about these matters"

it's basically impossible to argue with this, they have won significant policy concessions, and there's no reason to think they'll stop pushing now that Labour have opened the door for them
They must be proud with this endorsement, they worked hard for it.

i really believe in tackling gender inequality but few things seem quite as wrongheaded to me as the demand to transfer wealth from poorer younger generations with a far-distant retirement age, lower real wages and very little hope of property acquisition, to wealthy boomers who didn't read a letter

Conservative Shadow Culture Secretary Nigel Huddleston tells GB News that the BBC should "grovel" to Trump.

Amazing how many British 'patriots' are spending their time telling our national broadcaster to prostrate itself before a hostile foreign leader

Trump wants to destroy the BBC and take our money. And Nigel Farage is egging him on.

All true patriots should tell them both: hands off our BBC.

However well intended this campaign is, blaming the messenger rather than the message isn't going to solve the problem.

The problem is that trans people are stigmatised in the media and by our politicians. A lack of phones won't stop kids seeing radicalising bigotry on browsers in computers.
On Brianna's 19th birthday, this morning I joined @cheshirepcc.bsky.social and the Brianna Ghey Legacy Project Phone Free Education campaign at the launch at Jodrell Bank of a new £150k initiative to make Cheshire the first county in the UK where ALL state high schools have lockable phone pouches.

’This has been turned into something much bigger, very deliberately.’

After dissecting Trump’s original 2021 speech, @mrjamesob.bsky.social and caller Al conclude that the BBC’s edit is not the 'heinous misrepresentation’ it’s made out to be.

Serious journalism. If only...
It’s not at all clear to me how the BBC can do any kind of serious journalism if its top two bosses can be forced to quit over such an obviously confected scandal. There is no substantive error here. How can the BBC report on Trump, or Farage, or anyone else, in these circumstances?
