Also so many institutions and employers have already started to respond to the previous EHRC guidance (although plenty have not, and have staunchly pointed out it was only guidance). So irresponsible from the EHRC!
None of those newspapers (or the BBC) that gleefully ran stories when the EHRC gave trans people a shoeing will now report on the EHRC admitting they (and hence those stories) were wrong. Are those outlets craven - or dishonest?

EHRC Drops Workplace Toilet Advice Amid Legal Threat - Law360
Britain's equal rights watchdog has dropped its advice to employers that they must provide single-sex toilets in the wake of a landmark U.K. Supreme Court decision in the face of a court challenge.

A typical European car is parked 92% of the time. It spends 1/5th of its driving time looking for parking. Its 5 seats only move 1.5 people. 86% of its fuel never reaches the wheels, and most of the energy that does, moves the car, not the people.
Sound efficient?

The most obvious solution to stopping supporting exploitation of workers is to buy fewer new clothes from foreign sweat shops or abusive companies.
I try to buy 2ndhand but don't have the time to trawl the shops, and don't like buying un-tried-on online, so I mostly just get less and less smart.

How do people think fast fashion works?
So many people don't seem to consider that it inevitably involves exploitation, and quite often trafficking and/or modern slavery.
There is a huge cost beyond the price tags people see for it. #r4today

I seem to have upset the Nigel Farage fan club - so let me be clear.
This man sows hate, lies and division.
He is a grifter and a conman.
He does not represent the vast majority of Britons.
Repost if you agree
P.s. multiculturalism is great.

Cheers Chris. It was the 100th performance of the show this afternoon. Just three more weeks to go, then we’re off to Dublin across February. #DrStrangeloveOnStage
Saw @aiannucci.bsky.social’s Dr Stangelove tonight.
To say it is genius is an understatement. Performances are obviously incredible but the staging, the direction, the adaption is something else. Chef’s kiss is a cliche, but fucking hell it’s the best thing I’ve seen on stage for years.

Political donations are institutionalized bribery.
Donors get access to policymakers, shape laws, tax privileges, lax regulations, govt contracts/subsidies, honours, power.
Banning political donations is a necessary step for free and fair elections and democracy

How our democracy has been hijacked by corporations and wealthy elites
The only effective remedy is to ban all private donations, or bribes, to political parties.
