The only people who have spoiled the nature of this area were the mindless thugs who came to our homes last evening and created chaos.

I’ve never been scared by the asylum seekers. I’m terrified that the angry mob will return.

So, how do I get *my* country back from them? I’ve genuinely no idea

I wrote to M&S about the stupid lingerie department story - confirms nobody offered a bra fitting to a teenage girl. The Telegraph and JK can (always) do one.
Screenshot of an email: Hi Rachel, Thank you for contacting us about the article you’ve seen. We want our stores to be inclusive and welcoming places for our colleagues and customers. We have written to this customer and explained that our colleagues typically work across all departments in our stores and customers can always ask to speak to the colleague they feel most comfortable with. We also explained that our colleague was asking a customer if they needed help; they were not working on bra fit or offering this. Thank you again for getting in touch.

The Courier reports on Sandie Peggie's racist posts, where she used the term "p*kis" and said that, following devistating floods, Pakistan looked like a "giant bowl of coco pops".

Sandie Peggie is supported in her case by Sex Matters.

Incontrovertible evidence, now, of *police* investigating families supporting their kids with gender affirming healthcare in the UK. For trying to do the best for your child, following best practice in most of the world, here you get a visit from the police.

Thank you, Wes Streeting.

I'm not great at algebra but if programming an AI system to not be woke turned it into a nazi doesn't that mean that being woke is a good and dare I say necessary thing?

🚨 Last night JK Rowling attacked The National as an "anti-woman newspaper". I think that is absolutely ridiculous chat.

Here's my open letter setting out why this kind of attack does not work on our team.

My view: The “interim update” from the EHRC, and doubtless the actual “guidance” when it is produced, will try and obscure the fact that any exclusion of trans people is not compulsory, it is a choice. If anyone is excluding trans people from anywhere they are choosing to be transphobic, they…

1/8
Following the Supreme Court decision, if you are excluding trans people you are choosing to do so. You do not HAVE to, you are doing it because you WANT to. You are not defining trans people, you are telling the world who YOU are.

Children have particular rights under both US and international law. When you disappear children, lock them up, and deny them access to their parents, legal counsel and education, that place is no longer a "detention center." It is a concentration camp.
marisakabas.bsky.social Marisa Kabas @marisakabas.bsky.social · Apr 5
Sackets Harbor, NY is so small that there’s one pre k-12 school with 475 students. Three of those students were disappeared by ICE.

Here is a statement published today by school principal Jaime Cook:
< Jaime Montana Cook is at Sackets Harbor Central School. 5h • Message from the Sackets Harbor Principal As the principal of these students, I need to speak plainly. Our three students who were taken by ICE were doing everything right. They had declared themselves to immigration judges, attended court on their assigned dates, and were following the legal process. They are not criminals. They have no ties to any criminal activity. They are loved in their classrooms. Their family has worked at the nearby "Old McDonald's" petting zoo and dairy farm for 15 years. They lived in a house on the same road as a home ICE had a warrant for. The fact that ICE went door to door is unfathomable. The fact that our students were handcuffed and put into the same van as the alleged criminal from down the street is unconscionable. When I think of my third grader's experience, my stomach twists and it is hard to breathe. We are in shock-and it is that shared shock that has unified our community in the call for our students' release. We are in direct communication with our students. Let me be clear: they are not "being medically evaluated." They are not being "questioned as potential victims." Calling a detention center by another name does not change what it is. We deserve better than spin and misinformation. My teachers and my students are already hurting. Please, think about how long every hour feels for a third grader in a detention center. The wait had already been too long a week ago. I have no other agenda. Please release my students and their mother back to our community. Jaime Cook Prek-12 Principal Sackets Harbor, NY
