Unfortunately Labour can quote deportation figures all they like but the Reform voters will not be satisfied until there are no Black and Asian people visible on the bus. And also anyone that looks like they might be Polish.
And the reason is simple: Solutions for the cost of living crisis require fundamentally altering both the architecture of capitalism internal to Britain *and* relations to external, global capital flows, while immigration is nebulous and can be performatively addressed through spectacular violence.
The cost of living crisis is far and away the biggest concern for voters but the media and political class is just going to demonise asylum seekers and trans people until the planet combusts (which may be soon)

No more "dignity and respect" or "kindness" or "allyship" from politicians. We're full up on those ta. Give us informed consent trans healthcare, give us reform of the Equality Act that enforces our right to use public space on equal terms to cis people.

I’ve had the privilege of playing on the same team as Emily several times over the years. She is kind, brave, and deserves the world.
We should call the ban out for what it is: the FA is banning trans kids from playing grassroots sports with their friends. It’s not about protecting women at all.

People - and it’s no one I follow to be fair - need to stop talking about the threat of a far right government. WE ALREADY HAVE A FAR RIGHT GOVERNMENT. Said government being branded Labour makes no difference to the minorities and/or people in poverty they are constantly throwing under the bus.

Said this before, but every time the "biological woman" circus kicks off I think of the millions of women, including myself, with conditions like PCOS who struggle with "masculine" features like facial hair, and how the only women I'd be afraid to meet in a bathroom are gender-policing creeps.

While Palestinian families are starved, bombed, and burned in Gaza, BoD president Phil Rosenberg found the time to chastise the 36 deputies who dared to speak out against Israel’s war.

c) retribution against everyone he believes has wronged him

Watching an administration of violent, sieg heiling christo-fascists use Jewish vernacular while enacting Nazi policies against a marginalized group is more obscene than anything I could ever draw. Hope they all get what they richly deserve. 👍

I am being 100% serious when I say that part of the success of the current wave of loud, public transphobia is down to misogynists realising they can use it to deflect from talking about misogyny.
I post one gym pic with an arm flex. Post about men’s confused and harmful reactions to visibility muscular / athletic women.
Now my mentions are in meltdown about trans women in sports.
Deflecting from the actual issue - men’s insecurities and urge to control what women should be or look like.

'No-one is talking about young men' increasingly occupies the same space as 'we need an honest conversation about immigration'. We never shut up about young men. It's one of the only things we ever talk about, although admittedly only ever to say 'we need to be more reactionary'.

Figure skating world championships were considered to be for men only until 1902, when Madge Syers showed up and took home silver and the ISU went "whooooops guess we need to segregate them."
It happened again in 1992 Olympic skeet shooting: Zhang Shan took gold and then they segregated the event.

The theme of IWD was set in 1911: socialist feminist revolution!
Every IWD I have the same tantrum! There is no “theme”! A PR company that has nothing to do with the feminist movement makes it up! The “theme” website is run by Aurora Ventures! I’m sure they’re perfectly nice but they have nothing to do with feminist socialist grassroots movements!!!
