This is absolutely wild. Accused of directing a racist slur at Vini Jr, this guy says "oh no it was just a homophobic slur you got this all wrong" and people presumably think this is better

313,000 people complete A levels each year. We have 158,000 qualified electricians and 150,000 plumbers in the UK at the moment. You'd saturate the employment market within two years

Exactly how many plumbers and electricians do they think we need?

New post: LABOUR'S SECTION 28 IS HERE - ACT NOW. I explain how the Labour government's proposed revisions to the guidance on "keeping children in education" are designed to erase trans children in England. But it's not a done deal - there is plenty we can do to oppose this.

I assume the government is delighted that the Supreme Court has brought clarity to this situation

Has anyone already named the phenomenon that any post found on the internet which ends with "just my opinion" is always completely wrong

Look, we've already changed the Prime Minister several times and results haven't improved. You've got to look at the board - they just haven't invested.

This week can we please commit to at least having 2-3 days of gloating before being hectored by the "the next one will be even worse" brigade. We know.

Bit worried about this constant changing of Prime Ministers thing. What if we run out of talent and end up with a shit one?

Former board member of Sex Matters... Funny how often this stuff happens, eh?

I bet there's a fantastic reply-all email thread at Downing St this morning

Hold on, let him cook

It's not right that people who don't go to Parliament bear the cost for others to Am I doing this right?

It can't be that negatively selected because Matt Yglesias isn't here

Nine years to the day since Graham Linehan foresaw his own fate.

Why have 30 people followed me today. Is this another Twitter exodus or did I do something

There is extremely fertile ground for communism in the local town Facebook groups of Britain. The people in these groups all seem to want a planned economy, and seem to hanker for a grand authority which dictates which shops open in any given town, irrespective of business case.

Jonathan Ross is one of those names, like Benito Mussolini or Leopold II of Belgium, where all of the people named it are the worst sort of cunt

To be clear, this is Graham Linehan appearing to celebrate the murder of a woman.

🚨 Get ready for the FvH Awards 2026 shortlists announcement! 🩷⚫️🏆 From 5pm GMT on Wednesday, we’ll be revealing the contenders in 11 categories for this year’s big #LGBTQfootball celebration, on Instagram Here on Bluesky, we’ll be posting the full list, just a little later 👍 #FvH2026

This is a crushing blow for the reputation of the FlFA Peace Prize

One week they're crying about people getting visits from the police because of tweets, the next week they're calling for inquiries into tweets.

We have such a ridiculous attitude towards driving. Having a licence is not a right, and it should be denied if you can't be trusted to do it. One thing that always annoys me is that driving is the only discipline where you're treated more leniently if you need to do it for your job.

So I'm basically a car person and I essentially agree with this. There is no excuse for not having low speed limits and enforcement in urban driving. Where I think the frustration is, in the UK at least, is the proliferation of really pointless 30mph limits on what are basically semi-rural roads

Is he shaking hands with danger

"women's champion" She has refused to condemn or speak out about the sexual abuse of people in sport she actually knows.

This Times article is the sort of egregious propagandising lies that really needs to carry very serious consequences, but won't. I would however be happy to contribute if the wronged parties here did want to try to ruin some wankers

I remain fairly convinced that the Labour govt is composed of two types of people who know they're in government and want to do bad stuff, and people who don't even realise they are in government

there's a trans woman in prison, a man's prison, right now bcos she gave a blowjob to some guy and he claimed he didn't know she was trans. they sent her to prison for that. this guy lied to two women for five years, raping them all that time, but it's fine bcos it's state sanctioned.

This wouldn't even work - the far right and the compliant media would simply lie more and in different ways. You can't compromise with the far right, you have to fight them.

I'm continually amused that the language of car reviewer YouTube often involves phrases like "Living with [incredible car]" as if driving around in a 911 GT3 Touring is like having IBS or something. Just incredible use of language.

Interesting aside - Morrisons employed a transphobic consultant to give some training several years ago, praised her work giving her one of the only reviews on her website, never apologised or explained themselves and I haven't set foot in their shops since

Britain in 2025: restaurants expected to inspect people's genitals before deciding how many chips to give them

This appears to be the usual situation where the GCs have lost on the substance of the case they're really interested in, but got a couple of procedural wins because people don't follow their HR processes properly. Seems like almost entirely good news here, given they'll always claim a win anyway

Brazil, Morocco & Scotland is extremely France 98 coded somehow

Has anyone asked Max Rushden if Croatia are tired yet

The best thing about this is that to win any motion you want, you just need to identify a bunch of women who you think will vote against you and report them to the authorities for being trassexuals, and then they won't be able to vote whilst they're being 'investigated'

Everyone’s talking about whether Farage was racist to schoolchildren as a boy when he was racist to schoolchildren THIS WEEK. All the kids who are of reading age can read what he says about them.

See this is very clever - kids hate to be seen doing the same things adults do, and so because kids now see adults constantly bullying kids, they don't do it so much. Genius when you think about it

This is very important. For all their total capture of media institutions and so on, they cannot *make* the average person in the street want to call the police on us using the toilet. They can't make people want to kill us, sooner or later they have to get their own hands dirty.

I'm in the Netherlands and I don't want to alarm anyone but I haven't had a single bus or train be on time yet

We need more of this

This, but also it's about making the participation of trans people in society in the remaining cases so suspicious and unusual that someone else kills us

I was behind a woman earlier in the queue to get on a plane whose commitment to doomscrolling was the best I've seen. She had two wheeled suitcases AND a backpack which she was carrying in her hand inexplicably, and every time the queue stopped moving she whipped out a whole iPad to scroll...

New JKR character just dropped. This is presumably a trans woman footballer

I have an exceedingly high bar for this, but in all seriousness, if they were to do this, it might be my 'leave the country'. This feels like getting ahead of a potential wave of jury nullification incidents.

I get that these articles are mostly click/rage bait, but I do wish journalists would ask the people more questions as often their answers really do not add up and it makes you think they're setups. Like couple #1 here: www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Since the beginning of time, man has yearned to destroy the Sun

Increasingly I'm just actually looking forward to seeing them try to implement this patent nonsense. They are clueless.
