A reminder: there is nothing feminist about enforcing a static biological definition of sex and insisting on gender policing based on how “manly” or “womanly” a person appears. These are logics of fascism. Just saying.

This is off the scale sexism and misogyny.

As well as breaking a manifesto promise, this tax (adding 20% VAT cost to taxi journeys) would disproportionately affect the disabled and carers who rely on adapted vehicles to get out and about.
This risks becoming the 2025 version of ‘pasty tax’.

👏 Today marks 75 years since the creation of the ECHR.
We should celebrate the vision that Winston Churchill showed in recognising everyone’s human rights.
But there are now calls for the UK to leave ECHR.
As with Brexit, leaving would strip all of us of fundamental rights.

Leaving the ECHR won’t “Take Back Control” – it will hand your rights to politicians
The myths are seductive, the reality is very different – without the ECHR your freedoms rest on whichever Home Secretary wakes up grumpy
