"Left on the economy, right on the culture," is just fascism in the end. Also it will never take you left on the economy in the long run, because a machine built for eating people will keep eating people.
"Left on the economy, right on culture" is also, as needs repeating a hundred thousand time, the central lie of fascism.

OF COURSE it appeals to the in-group who thinks their well-being AND their prejudices will be pandered to.
The thing about "left on the economy, right on culture" is it's based on analysis of swing voters. Those voters are often low attention and their politics are often not especially coherent. Which is fine for them, it's not their job to run the country, but, you know, the government is

I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk?

But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession.

But that's just me

With that in mind, I have to ask the rebels: do you actually care about justice and disabled people's right to life, or was it only ever about votes for you? #disability #TakingThePIP

Honestly, the more I look at Starmer's deal on disability benefits, the more it strikes me that what he is trying to say to rebels is that the new rules will apply to very few people voting in the next general election. #disability #TakingThePIP

There is one error in this article. Helen Joyce’s conversation with Helen Staniland in which she declared trans people were a huge problem in a sane world and their numbers should be reduced, was made public 10 hours before Alice took her own life on 26th May 2022, not 2023 as stated n the article.

The BC Human Rights Tribunal found an employer guilty of discriminating against a disability when they forced an immunocompromised employee to work onsite during a disease outbreak.

This is a big deal for people who are being forced back into the office.

British people are not any more transphobic than anyone else, "TERF Island" is just a statistical error. Transphobia Jo who lives in a cave and does 10,000 transphobias a day is an outlier and should not have been counted

The UK parliament has enacted a trans ‘bathroom ban’ on its estate, 48 hrs before a mass lobby taking place there today.

The EHRC is an anti-trans led group with huge power.Its recommendations will force trans people
out of places of education, work, recreation and leisure, out of hospital wards.
If Parliament changed a rule they didn't have to change to specifically ban you the day before you were due to turn up to Parliament, you'd think it was targeted, too.

The decline is attributable to transphobia in the UK. Bridget Phillipson offers *not one single solitary suggestion* to tackle that. And that would be because she is a transphobe.
