The Home Secretary says "we have become the destination of choice in Europe, clearly visible to every people smuggler and would-be illegal migrant across the world"

Another chilling aspect... The Tories simply passed a law declaring Rwanda "safe".

This is just how the Equality Act is structured re. all sorts of things (including, eg , provision for disabled people as well). You can obviously have criticisms of how that Act is structured but in terms of explaining how it currently works, I don't think the Minister's position is bad.

Seeing a lot of people I frankly thought better of misunderstanding this. It means case by case re. the service provider not the individuals using the service. This is how the Equality Act has worked for years - with providers having to justify exclusion as proportionate.

when RWers say "grooming" they mean "threatening my patriarchal sexual authority, corrupting my property, damaging my goods." they don't actually mean anything to do with sexual abuse, which they see as perfectly permissible under the right circumstances.
