Laura described the blocker ban as ‘forced detransition’ and ‘inhumane’. The impact of the ban on her child has been severe...

"My child stopped eating and was on suicide watch, she was going to take her own life. She couldn’t look in the mirror and [imagine] having a deep voice and beard."

Rachel Reeves is going to tax work and NOT WEALTH.

Yet again, Labour are giving their banker mates in The City a leg up, while making regular people worse off.

Let’s give some help to the people that actually need it.

I will forever bang the drum in Star Trek that no, we in fact do NOT need to fill in ever last hole left after VOY or even ENT (bc Paramount is not interested in DS9 and I won't pretend it is) and it would be Cool, Actually ™ to tell new stories about new casts & new ships beside the Enterprise
i think hardcore "fans" types have a hard time with finality or maybe implications being left as just that instead of a clear cut answer. i see folks come out of stories demanding a finite answer when it's like, that kinda defeats the purpose, no ?

Jeremy Vine, "Andrew Windsor has been buried alive.. They want him humiliated"

No he hasn't. He was accused of raping a child three times and for that:

➡️ Victim received £12 million
➡️ Andrew is moving from one big house to another
➡️ Andrew getting 6 figure £ from the King

We need to talk about cis het women (especially on a hen do) sexualy assaulting/harassing others.

This is a cultural problem that's never spoken about. It must be spoken about. It's not okay for a woman to grab the bum of a man who has no connection to your party.

Andrew has paid no rent on a 30 bedroom mansion with just two people living it for over 20 years.

But someone does pay the rent, you.

It is the ridiculous excesses of the rich causing homelessness, not immigrants.

Sorry Zarah it’s taken far too long for this to happen and I’m not even sure it is happening only a meeting about it happening. In the meantime a better alternative has arisen; the greens. I’d love to see you join them. Inaction has destroyed the party you tried to create.

The monarchy is an undemocratic, antiquated relic that serves no useful purpose in the 21st century.

An unaccountable billionaire family bankrolled by the public purse.

To become a fairer country it’s time to finally abolish the monarchy.
Prince Andrew proves the Monarchy should be abolished, claims Patrick Harvie
King Charles has stripped his younger brother of his Royal titles following more embarrassing revelations over the prince's friendship with late US paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

I don't want hear about Prince Andrew giving up his titles.

I want to hear about him losing his freedom.

We have the laws to prosecute people for serious sexual offences committed in other countries.

Why don't we use them?
