Labour policy is being celebrated by Tommy Robinson.

I'm sad to learn Muriel Gray is a terf. Back in the day she used to do cool stuff. When she was relevant, I guess.

I have thought of a solution to Britain's failed roads.
Forget Wanksy. Stencil the name we're not allowed to say, of that direct action group whose target is the genocide in Palestine and the government have decided are terrorists, on the road next to each pothole, and it'll be fixed within a week.

I was around in 1975, at primary school. Grownups were very pessimistic, the country was broken.

We're a country of worn-out failed roads passing million pound houses while hundreds of billions are wasted on grand projects, a country of food banks and poverty, one where opposing genocide or climate change means arrest, and millions have no hope.
But it's trans people that are the problem.

Nothing illustrates the arseholery of the IOC and the British Press more than the use of the image of a not-Trans woman to illustrate a story about trans women being banned (because there are no current trans women competing at this level)

What happened here is Labour reached out to support her and they had conversations at which point some Labour wanker said "we've got this great initiative and we'd like you to champion it" and Esther obviously said yes because she was told it would help kids like Brianna.

I wanna address this one real quick because this is what we call "scapegoating".
Do you honestly expect us to believe that after her daughter was murdered in a way that had nothing to do with phone use, Esther Ghey came begging for you to ban phones during school time?

You're genuinely deranged if you think I believe either of Brianna's killers deserve less than the life sentences they were both handed, or that I think Brianna was in any way at fault for her own murder.

The sad thing about the BBC story is they have bent over backwards to dance to the right wing tune. On Gaza, small boats, trans people, and more. But still this happens.

Once every 20 years or so, the director-general of the BBC is forced to resign for being insufficiently rightwing. Alastair Milne in 1987. Greg Dyke in 2004. Tim Davie in 2025. The great irony is that the BBC was in all cases profoundly biased towards established power. But just not biased enough …

The whole BBC bias story is a manufactured one in order to weaken the organisation.
It's an organisation packed with appointees of the previous government, that has swung consistently to the right for years.
But it's more important for the far right that it be weakened.
