I’m tired of engaging in debate on this issue with people who support the cut to WFA, refusal to raise tax threshold or reinstate CB & say cuts to disability benefits are ok bcos they are ‘just try to cut waste & fraud’. For my sanity I won’t engage any more. My position is this ⬇️
Placing the fiscal burden of the Tory legacy on poor, disabled & older people & failing to invest in the public sector we all need; instead of taxing the rich and multinationals is a political choice. We don’t have to accept it.

Please don’t hit me with the lofty nonsense that you great leftie purists knew all along from your crystal balls exactly what Labour would do in power, so us stupids who voted for them should hang our heads in shame. 1/2

Exactly right.
You’re telling me that right wing voters that Labour was trying to appeal to voted for a right wing party anyway and left wing voters decided not to vote for Labour because they’re too right wing now? Who could have possibly predicted this.

Labour are panicking about how to tackle reform. Easy. Don’t mimic them. Offer people things that actually make their lives better, not worse. Like we hoped they would. It’s not actually that difficult.

Got my vote next GE
This "debate" about who should use what toilet doesn’t benefit anyone. It doesn’t fix the underfunding of women's refuges, NHS waiting lists leaving women in terrible pain, mums skipping meals to feed their kids. How about we get on with tackling the real issues affecting women?

BMA, unsurprisingly condemns the supreme court decision on trans rights

GCs will applaud their "victory" because some political interests sided with them, meanwhile medical organisations are siding with us again!

Yet they'll convince themselves they're right and (and cite science while they do it)

Just as Truss finished off Elizabeth II, Vance did the same for Pope Francis.

You’d think this was blindingly obvious, wouldn’t you? Do the transphobes and terfs not understand basic human biology? 🤦‍♀️
The idea that trans HRT *doesn't* change your biological sex is frankly the kind of absurd nonsense which could only be entertained by someone actively resisting being informed
the way the right has boiled discussion on transness by saying trans women will always be “biological males” is despicable because taking cross hormone therapy literally changes your biological birth sex. your sex and sex functions is no longer the same after taking hormones for an extended time

I find writing helps me process things so I've written down my thoughts on the supreme court ruling, what it means to me and what I think we need to do www.libdemvoice.org/we-have-just...
We have just entered a civil rights emergency
As the shockwave of Wednesday’s bombshell Supreme Court decision has landed, we are now seeing the rapid erosion of some civil liberties in the UK. Although the court’s decision itself ruled on a fair...

Straight out of the fascist playbook. He is determined to erase entire cultures. Need to stop playing nice with this fascist.

Says it all. Pissing everyone off across the political spectrum. Quite an achievement.
Can't remember a statement by a Chancellor that has gone down as badly, as quickly, and with almost all parts of the political spectrum, as this one

We need a new, decent socialist party. And fast. Those who’ve lost the Labour whip maybe need to get their heads together.

Just when you thought they couldn’t do worse. Disgraceful, cruel and unnecessary. #taxtherich

Utterly and unforgivably cruel. Remember this when you next vote.
