I think Transactual put it best (in reference to the girl guides) and now Labour too:
"There is no problem being solved here, only harm being done."
All to appease the right, who hate them anyway - shame on them.

So much talk of economics and far right radicalisation but my increasingly view is we are all - myself included - underestimating the impact of both internet culture and (more importantly) the economics of the internet/social media on politics and radicalisation
Last night I heard of another friend of a friend who has been lost to a rabbit hole of online propaganda. We need to start treating this as a serious public health concern.

There is something odd about this picture that the Reform candidate for Caerphilly Llyr Powell has put out.
It looks edited. Someone removed perhaps?
Can't imagine his former employer Nathan Gill (who has just pleaded guilty to accepting Russian bribes) would have been there🤣
