Homeowners and aspiring homeowners are really resistant to any challenge to the idea that they should get to sit an indefinitely inflating asset, benefit from that inflation in the value and that the rest of us should just suffer the consequences.

Breathless reporting across the industry on unconfirmed reports that Kirk's killer may have once breathed same air particles expelled by a trans person, meanwhile no interest in ironclad proof that yet another school shooter was a Nazi.

As several have pointed out, this also applies to the massive (100,000 or so) Trans Pride event. Almost entirely blanked.
Here's how the real two-tier Britain works:
1. Whatever Nigel Farage says, however stupid, is looped and discussed by the media, while left-wing voices are treated as noises off.
2. Tiny far-right protests get massive airtime, while 10s of 000s gathering for Palestine or green causes are ignored.🧵

Bottom line is that anti trans politics is part of fascist politics and you can’t fight fascism by taking on and surrendering to its ideas

I’m kind of speechless with this one. I can’t imagine the kind of person who continues to make the argument that it doesn’t count as real starvation if the kids were already sick.

Oh look, another "dignity and respect" letter, saying they are welcoming and "inclusive" for everyone while telling trans members they must out themselves. Do any of these companies realise that article 8 rights are a thing while the EHRC interim guidance is just that, guidance?
Well. I am cancelling my GymGroup membership because they are happily abiding by the flawed EHRC interim guidance and instituting transphobic policies. Please share this so that other queer members have this info and can make informed choices.

It's amazing watching the ideological descendants of Blair try the same shit, but even less convincingly.
In an op-ed in the Observer, UK Home Secretary Yvette Cooper has doubled down on her claim that Palestine Action is a violent terrorist group, but declined to provide evidence for the claim.

Teachers and other school staff who aren't okay with this institutional abuse are going to have to refuse to enforce this bullshit.
If you're a parent with kids at school in Edinburgh it's time to get in touch with your school admin and make clear you will not accept them bullying trans kids out of education.
This is cruel and discriminatory behaviour. Child cruelty.

The revolution isn’t a revolution without marginalised people, and that includes trans people. Corbyn and Sultana wanting to “debate” trans rights shows they still need a lot of work when it comes to the trans community. You don’t debate people’s right to exist safely.

Exactly. Also, while Corbyn and Sultana are the faces of the party, the 4 single-issue MPs who Corbyn has allied with since the election mean that, whatever Corbyn/Sultana might believe, as a group, they do not collectively support trans rights. So they won't be coming out in support anytime soon.

BBC Today is reporting that “at least 94” data centres will be built in the next 5 years in the U.K.
How can we possibly justify doing that when we can’t get a full electric car charging network built, & the power infrastructure is insufficient to connect new wind farms, never mind water shortages

The thing about "legitimate concerns on immigration" is that the more they're indulged, the more they shift. It starts as an innocent worry over raw numbers competing for jobs & public services. Then it becomes about incompatible cultural values. Then it's just open racism.

Trans people are already at a higher risk. But a nightmare scenario of mass confinement hangs over the order - the right defines trans people as inherently mentally ill.
