Rather than focusing on women only spaces (which has inevitably turned female "safety" into an aesthetic/ weaker sex issue) we should work on societal change.

Our common ground should be directed towards cis MEN, and wider society who undertake the vast vast amount of flashing and violence in plain sight. But that is much harder for men like you, who wish to blame a minority for everything than grapple with the truth.

Making sweeping laws based on general population aesthetic traits that are categorically NOT shared by the whole population will only ever end badly.

Waist to hip ratios are misogynistic bollocks. I'm a sewist and women/ men do not comply with the 1940's/ pornhub body ideal anymore.

What a sheltered, unobservant & beige life you must live.
Perhaps this was mostly true pre-widespread access to aesthetic and hormone procedures and good wigs/ makeup, but not any more.
And, might I add that it is a moot point anyway, rapists dont need fancy dress to push you into a cubicle.

I just dont get why _other women_ pretend not to understand this. Why? How can they not see that this is aesthetic policing rather than "feminism"

And yet when these measures result in 0 impact on people's lives, the public will rightly blame them. Sadly many will turn to reform to 'give them a chance'.

Planning stage isnt even the biggest problem. Financing is crazy expensive right now, as is construction and lab costs. Getting out the ground is more expensive than ever!

Yep, we had hope. Remember "grown up politics" & wanting to end culture wars...
Didn't take long to get to "we need to give the right everything they ask for or we will be boo-ed by the daily mail" *sigh*

Which way is up with these people. Every announcement is giving me whiplash, no wonder ministers arent making progress. Are they "studs up" hard right or centre left, progressive gov?

I dont think the conservative party want them to succeed. They know this policy will be unpopular with Lab voters and therefore take them even further from re-election all whilst doing the far-rights work for them & boosting the profile of their hot issues.

So stripping asylum seekers assets was discussed before the election? Digital ID was nowhere to be seen.
Tax rises are 💯on the table still and benefits are being reduced at every turn.
Glad you have a good feeling about all this, must be the only one apart from the home sec!

Where the hell was this far right bollocks, digital ID, tax rises and benefit withdrawal in the manifesto? Who voted for this?
A moral implosion in government. Embarrassing.

Why stop there! Shave their heads, & let their hair be turned into nice felt festive ornaments.
I cant believe we went from "grown up politics" to dehumanising the poorest in 18m. What a vile moral implosion
