A reminder the NHS Fife employment tribunal many are losing their minds over is not about whether trans people should use certain bathrooms, it was about allegations of bullying and harassment against a trans doctor. Despite campaigners claiming differently, it's not up to NHS Fife to drop the case.

🚨 Call for evidence on banning unpaid internships 🚨

Today, the Department for Business and Trade has announced a new call for evidence to inform what action the Government should take to put an end to unpaid internships!

This a very positive announcement ⤵️

No this is such a dumb argument I can't... 😭
Then you have to explain why a party should be allowed to change the voting system in a way that (it thinks) advantages it

Edinburgh’s economy has outperformed London’s for the first time ever, according to new ONS data.

The figures showed a gross domestic product per head of population of £69,809 in Edinburgh, compared to £69,077 for London.

🚨BREAKING: After years of campaigning, the Gypsy Traveller community has finally received an apology for the cruel Tinker Experiments.

This is not the end of righting wrongs. The @scottishgreens.org are proud to have raised this in with Parliament, most recently last month.

I'm glad to live in a world where we're finally waking up to the fact that cars have killed our cities.
Fête de la Musique in Paris, aka Music Day, is today. There’s literally music everywhere. The whole city is public life. Including on the edge of the Seine, in a space that used to be a highway for cars. #MusicDay #ParisPlage

We can fit a lot into cities when we rethink cars.
