I live in the same District and County as Ken Clarke. Everything he's said here is correct
Ken Clarke humiliates Danny Kruger's new party, Reform UK on #BBCQT
"I live in a county with a Reform UK council"
"Most of them had no idea what the country council did"
"They fought on the promise of reducing waste and council tax"
"And they just put up the council tax by the max"

v good thread to show to your cis people who don’t understand the kafkaesque web of insane bureaucratic nonsense that british trans people have been trapped in for decades
I want to explain a few things and then it might be clearer why UK trans people are upset.
In 2001 I married my wife, Sylvia.
In 2005 I started medical transition. (1/13)

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”
It costs a lot less to house people.

Season 3 of The Diplomat done. I've been trying to pick out my favourite actor in S3. It's a difficult task, but maybe Bradley Whitford's deadpan performance edges it from Keri Russell (Kate Wyler)

Drove to Chepstow today. Met my younger half-brother, his daughter, his grandson, and a bunch of their friends. Had lunch. Drove home. Picked up emails. Edited the shooting club website. Tried to solve an htaccess issue for a different website (failed on that one). We are, predictably, knackered

BBC theory 1. As the charter is up for renewal very shortly, today's resignations are all about manufacturing sufficient outrage to put the skids under the BBC licence fee and turn the corporation to subscription only

A terrorist targeted federal workers last week. There wasn’t much reporting on it. But I’m not finished thinking about it! 🧵
An anti-vaxxer fired more than 500 gunshots into CDC Atlanta, shattering 150 “blast-proof” windows on 6 buildings. Employees were pinned down in terror.
