The questions about the UK legal system boil down to the same questions about the UK media

Class

They all went to school together

If you burned Eton to the ground and salted the earth it might just break this cycle
It is genuinely insane to see a judge describe Graham Linehan as a “generally credible witness” in a trial where he claimed Sophia Brooks has been engaged in “trans activism” since 2013 (when she would’ve been 6 years old), then, when challenged, claimed her drivers license lied about her age.

It fascinates me how much people really love outing themselves as bigots on the internet. Every time I post something which critiques misogynists or racists and their behaviour - LOADS of people show up to announce themselves as misogynists and racists. It’s such an effective virtual flytrap.

A Briefcase Cunt will be along soon to say "YOU LOT WILL NEVER BE HAPPY!" and, like, I also don't applaud my cat for not puking on the floor m8. And I think I should expect less of my cat than the government elected with a massive majority.

OOOOOOOOOO Labour is planning to FREEZE rail fares for the FIRST TIME IN THIRTY YEARS! Fantastic, now I can continue paying what I've paid all year for trains that are frequently delayed, cancelled and so packed I get a backpack in the face.

Not much to say about Trans Day of Remembrance anymore besides “try loving and celebrating us while we are alive”

We've all been there. We've all had moments, or chased moments, where we have been patted on the back for being 'one of the good ones' for fitting in. But we are stronger together, all of us, the passing and the non-passing, the butch and the femme, together we mean something.

Today is the Transgender Day of Remembrance. Trans people have literally always been here; every time I see someone sneering "oh but there were no trans people when I was in high school," well. I dated a trans girl in high school, and was close friends with a trans guy.

Both the Conservatives and Labour have very deliberately chosen Brown faces for their most virulently racist policies. This is a feature not a bug. Every single one of these Brown lemmings to White supremacy is fully aware of what they are doing.

Priti Patel. Suella Braverman. Shabana Mahmood. Brown women desperate to be good little foot soldiers to white supremacy. Zora Neale Hurston was absolutely right when she said all skinfolk ain’t kinfolk.

I'm an immigrant. Please don't talk to me all smiles, friendly and respectful while you're paying for these nasty racists and their nasty racist policies.

You are a hypocrite and my enemy.

International-level athletes are, not to put too fine a word on it, genetic freaks. They, M & F, cis & trans, are much more like one another than they are like the rest of us slobs. But only certain facets of that freakery, the ones which don’t accord with gender stereotypes, are to be punished.
"Cis women having male levels of testosterone" is another big giveaway about what this is. What is a "male" level of testosterone and how can a cis female have it naturally occurring in their cis female body if its specific to men? Is there a male level of height?
Its telling where the IOC will let claims of scientific rationality be applied as a cover for their bigotry and where it wont. I'm assuming they wont be barring athletes for having the advantage of being too tall or too much lung capacity?

China will be the global leaders, no question. Trump is causing the political and financial collapse of the U.S., and has abandoned our former allies. He has completely lost any sense of reality and rationality, exhibiting actions that have proven him to be truly insane.

Questions;

What did Mandelson know about this, and when?

What has he failed to report?

What did Starmer know about Mandelson’s involvement when he appointed him US ambassador?

Which other senior UK politicians are involved?

What is Peter Thiel’s involvement?

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.
