30 more women to tip this over 55k today? The calm, compassionate, inclusive feminists, who might not have seen the amazing support received for the trans community and the rejection of hate so far? Go on…
We expect to hit 55k signatures in support of our open letter this week, perhaps even today. Thank you to everyone who has signed or shared. Let’s keep this going:

Seems pretty safe to assume the ID cards will never be successfully delivered.
So for future smug points, let's get some guesses on how much money gets spent and how long it will be before officially cancelled?

Nice story about a new pilot I worked around the edges on - www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...
'I pretended to be a criminal to try out latest surveillance tech'
Last time I was testing an alcohol tag - and trying to break it at the pub, this time I was again an offender in the community but now experimenting with a new surveillance survey
