Today, on Transgender Day of Remembrance, we remember the transgender lives lost to violence.

The Green Party stands shoulder to shoulder with transgender people in the face of increasing transphobic rhetoric in our society and politics.

The misconceived notion that the way to deal with the backlog of asylum claims is to duplicate the system so as to have exit assessments too.

In essence: addressing the problem of a queue by forming another queue, just as long.

Daft, as well as cruelly unsettling.

What is it that people expect from deporting people?

Because it won't lower House prices or rents.
And it won't make food or energy cheaper.
There won't be more jobs and they certainly won't pay better.

At what point do you realise it is going to achieve nothing?

These are the voters that Labour strategists have made very clear over a long period of time that they don't want any more, and it's a message that has now been heard
I've been out canvassing quite a lot in London lately. Labour's vote has absolutely evaporated.... it is quite extraordinary to go to places where Labour were on 50-60% of the vote at the last locals and find nobody, or virtually nobody, supporting them.

This one minor piece of legislation will have a much bigger practical impact on people's lives - as well as being almost universally popular - than any amount of trying to dehumanise immigrants.

But among all the government's hatemongering, it will go unnoticed.

I can only imagine how frustrating it must be for Labour that voters refuse to recognise the difference between the government's progressive, well-intentioned racism and the destructive, toxic racism of Reform and the far-right.

The cynicism of Labour's twin-track strategy of calling Reform racist while pushing policies designed to blame immigrants for the nation's problems is appalling and it taints any other achievements or aims of this government.

On Tuesday, Keir Starmer said he was concerned that racism was returning to British politics.

This morning, his Home Secretary is loudly letting the world know that the government intends to make the lives worse of even those found to be genuine refugees.

Just some British patriots in Benidorm, taking over a street in Spain to shout in their own language about unwanted foreigners. It’s a blessing that they are too thick to understand irony.

The fact that this person remains Health Secretary is objectively one of the most significant British political scandals of the post-Covid era. But because he's doing something the media barons like, everyone has decided it's fine.
Health Secretary Wes Streeting says that the British Medical Association, which represents Britain's doctors, is a threat to the NHS. Streeting took a record £225k from private healthcare-related donors in just two years.
British Medical Association ‘threat to future of NHS’, says Streeting ahead of doctors’ strike
Health secretary accuses doctors’ union of ‘cartel-like behaviour’ and tells it to ‘get real’ over pay demands

“Nobody at the BBC is sweating about displeasing Zack Polanski or the Guardian or even the current prime minister.”

Very good on the deeply cynical and dangerous right wing manoeuvres to compromise and ultimately destroy the BBC.

Maybe Keir should demand the heads of major US news networks any time they imply Britain is on the brink of civil war or that we live under sharia law. Or does it not work both ways?

We need to update the Frog and the Scorpion story so it's the Frog, the Scorpion and the Other Frog. The other frog has a sprained ankle so needs a little help crossing the river, but the first frog actively decides to help the scorpion because the Other Frog is trans or Frog Jeremy Corbyn.
I am hearing there’s a political campaign against the BBC by cynical liars and frauds who don’t care what’s real and only want to destroy it, and I can say: LOL too bad lads, you could not possibly more deserve to get wrecked by the wingnuts and cranks you were once so happy to promote.

Something worth noting: Rockstar is leaning HEAVILY on the excuse that the unionising employees were "leaking private company information"

They want people to assume this means game info or assets.

But I will bet you CASH MONEY this translates to:
