Today, on Transgender Day of Remembrance, we remember the transgender lives lost to violence.
The Green Party stands shoulder to shoulder with transgender people in the face of increasing transphobic rhetoric in our society and politics.

So, after his illegal invasion of a sovereign, democratic state, Vladimir Putin is about to largely get his own way - given to him, by his pet poodle Donald Trump.
Meanwhile, in our own country, a Putin-admiring Trump fanboy leads the opinion polls...
Scared yet?

I remember the kids with additional needs at my school in the 70s. No ear defenders then. They were beaten & humiliated constantly, no compassion, no kindness, no understanding. I still feel sad when I think about those little souls. Is this what Tice wants to go back to?

Tice’s comments not getting the attention it should in relation to the cruelty of of his ideas
Stopping ear defenders would result in pain and discomfort for thousands of individuals who have enough to cope with in trying to integrate in society
Tice doesn’t have a clue, also true of Reform

Let's not forget Reform's targeting children with special needs. Acute lack of resources for some of our most vulnerable children, but no, problem is over-diagnosis and other children feeling left out. One solution - ban neurodiverse children from wearing ear defenders in school. Utterly disgusting

Reform’s deputy leader Richard Tice does not understand SEND children or the system, claiming there has been an 'over-diagnosis' of kids with SEND, saying it’s 'insane' to see children wearing ear defenders in classes & accusing parents of playing the system.

Q. Why do autistic kids wear ear defenders?
A. So they can’t hear Richard Tice moaning about a perfectly reasonable protective measure.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social CHATGPT interpretation of Farages 'rhetorical agreement'
Why Farage might choose that wording
Because “rhetorically agree” is vague, it gives him flexibility:
It sounds like agreement without committing to the details.
Typical!

As Labour proposes limiting the protection of the ECHR, we must remember what it was set up to do; protect us all from abuses of power by our govts.
Be v wary then of anyone calling to do that. You may not be the target now. But why shouldn’t you be next?

Very long-winded way of answering ‘Yes’ to that question.
Not sure how that sits then with Mahmood’s previous demands that refugees must integrate and contribute to their communities. Much harder to do that if you never know how long you can stay.
Depressing in its dull-witted cruelty.
