Greens jump in the polls for obvious reasons. 2pts behind Labour in this one.
Looking forward to seeing @zackpolanski.bsky.social on Question Time tonight!

Who'da guessed the English media would despise climate protesters painting things orange, but would have a heyday over graffiti with racism in its heart?

Correct. Fourteen years of conservative austerity has been devastating for many people's physical & mental health. This is why many people voted for change, & not more conservative austerity. So, why are you delivering more conservative austerity?

Got a citation for that claim Wes? Is it based on medical research? Or is it just the opinion of a conservative politician in a red tie who wants to slash welfare budgets rather than ask the wealthy to pay more tax?

Utterly disgraceful political intervention by hardline conservatives in schools, aiming to make children less aware of their bodies & therefore placing them in more danger. Why? Because they hate having heternomativity, patriarchy, & sexism questioned.

The "Gender Critical" hatred of all things gender-queer is becoming increasingly extreme. That the West's first institute to study trans healthcare was sacked by the Nazis, & its books burnt, is a statement of historical fact.

Just so we're clear, the government has announced £31m to help keep MPs safe - which is good. And has done this as part of an Islamaphobic, anti-protest, narrative that sows fear & division - obviously making MPs less safe.
That is actually what is happening right?

The Home Secretary of the UK is under "no obligation" to consider the "real world outcome" that he is breaking international law by leaving someone effectively stateless?

Turns out that trans* people, transphobia, & folk who realise that excluding trans people backfires & emboldens patriarchy, have been about for some time.

So, the Conservatives' swing to racist & anti-feminist hard-right politics is going well then?

Labour 20+ pts ahead in the polls, yet this Council seat swings heavily away from Labour.
Why? Well it might be that the candidate is a vicious & vocal transphobe.
Transphobia & "gender-critical" politics are deathly for the Left.

The "gender-criticals" have finally jumped the shark.
Apparently, feminism has a woman problem because most women realise that "sex-based rights" is patriarchal post-truth nonsense.
If there's an award for hardline conservative capture of women's issues, this must take the medal.

Surely the Feminist take is to question how & why police strip-search women?
Police sexual assault of *all* women is an actual bloody problem!
This bedeviling of trans women distracts from the everyday harm cis men with power do - and it's patriarchy in action you bar*tards!

The principle of biological sex was created by male imperialist thinkers with patriarchy in their hearts. Places of education have a responsibility to resist Bedenoch's anti-feminist misinformation.
