Labour since expanded on this? But going from this information I currently see them doing exactly what they said in the manifesto? 2.

Innocent times.
Facebook memory from 13 years ago where I have posted, "I feel physically ill when I think Mitt Romney may actually become the next president."

It gives more detail in the NGO link I posted earlier. But here's a screenshot
Richard Barnard, co-founder of Palestine Action On April 2026, Barnard is expected to stand trial for “one count of inviting support for a proscribed organisation, namely Hamas, under section 12(1A) of the Terrorism Act and two counts of encouraging ‘criminal damage’ against Israeli weapons factories under s44 of the Serious Crime Act.”

Because it's a glitch when Reddit introduced the verification. It's being fixed
Heya folks! This is a bug - we're looking into it right now so we can get it fixed. As far as we've been able to tell, this is only happening on the android app. We'll update you all once we have timing on a fix. It should go without saying, but I want to reassure you all anyway - we do not consider LGBT topics generally to be 18+, and the tags you're seeing in subreddit creation have no bearing on gating communities

FFS. Trying to protect children is not censorship. Enough of this free speech get out of jail free bullshit.
The issue on reddit is a glitch. It says so on the site.

It's a glitch on reddit. Not a deliberate attempt to censor LGBTQ.
