The Daily Mail making sure "transgender" is included in the framing of the story. #BBC

😆

FRANKENSTEIN is devastatingly beautiful to look at and I'll probably never see a film that drips such honey, is it heresy to say I prefer Branaghs? I find the pacing of KB's much easier to deal with, there's a more fascinating approach to 19th century ethics and an overall better interpretation.

Honestly, the BBC* can fuck right off. Its coverage of the left has been execrable, from caricaturing Corbyn as a Russian on what's supposed to be their "flagship news show", to their wall to wall disgusting coverage of trans issues. I hope they take the Guardian with them. *current affairs dept

Bob Vylan sticks it to the haters yet again. 😎 #HumbleAsThe🌞 www.nme.com/news/music/b...

I imagine @nadiawhittomemp.bsky.social will be getting the usual abuse for speaking out - solidarity with her and all those fighting against hate manipulated by the wealthy right gleefully creating a distracting wedge issue

This isn’t true, Zack has been clear on trans rights since day one, he won the leadership over it, they are still polling second, and he’s been asked about it on several media rounds

I prefer to it call reasonable concerns. 😇

THE WEEK IN SCOTTISH FOOTBALL PATTER 2025/26: Vol. 13

I concur, it IS embarrassing. Down my street we have Sikh, Hindu, Muslim neighbours and they're all lovely (except one, he's a prick, nobody likes him). We're atheists. We have Carribbean and Indian and Bengali and Turkish and Polish, everyone just wants to live in peace. Except those thick racists.

Presumably British GCs won’t ever be holidaying in France now. Far too dangerous. Quelle horreur, etc etc

A disgrace. @rgpoulussen.bsky.social

Trump says jump. The UK says how high?

Very important to note that benefits weren’t stopped because of evidence of fraud, but because HMRC thought it saw something that *might have been* evidence of fraud. They didn’t check. They just stopped paying. Absolute contempt for their victims. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

EXCL: Home Office travel records used in controversial anti-fraud crackdown were so flawed that almost half of families initially flagged as emigrated still lived in UK - Luke Butterly & @lisaocarroll.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Deform UK Ltd Councillor Isabella Kemp has been suspended from the party meaning it has lost its majority in Kent. And these are the sorts of shennangans the polls voters want to see in parliament? It would be like Boris Johnson on crack cocaine.

As a cis woman I’m actually super stoked to uncouple the concept of fecundity from the concept of cis woman & given that feminism has been trying to do this exact thing for decades (centuries?) it’s baffling to see ‘feminists’ being like ‘no ACKTUALLY women ARE defined by their ability to reproduce’

Well done to all who voted. Another defeat for farage's awful Restore Trust. Until next year..

This is where we're going. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox...

Heads up 😅 Sex Matters have launched their own MP letter-writing campaign insisting on trans segregation, an exclusionary Code etc etc 📝Let’s make sure our letters outnumber theirs+++ Template here! If you’ve already written, grab a mate & get them to write too 🤗 actionnetwork.org/letters/scra...

This morning I laid a wreath of red and white poppies at Bristol’s #RemembranceSunday service. Every November, I choose to wear both a red and a white poppy: red to help those who have been affected by war, and white to work for peace.

🥱 eleventh against fifth! #bbcsportscotland 🇱🇻 first against seventh

Good grief.

It would be such a shame if this article was shared, and upset a few more transphobes.

Finished watching Riot Women. The W Yorks setting made a lot more sense when I remembered that Sally Wainwright is not Sally Rooney. It's brilliant, thoroughly recommend, but (as some of the trailers imply) it is not for the light-hearted with suicide, SA and DV all themes.

So a transphobe is threatening @northwestbylines.co.uk with defamation over this 100% accurate and factual piece of Journalism. Support us by sharing it far and wide 🏳️‍⚧️ northwestbylines.co.uk/news/equalit...

Telling that Labour were comfortable with the capture of the BBC and other institutions.

"On contentious subjects such as slavery, colonialism and the Irish famine, eminent academics claim there has been a rewriting of history." What exactly is contentious about slavery, colonialism and the Irish famine?

"wHEre'S yA fUcKInG pOpPy!!!???" 😡😡😡 "Here." 🤍 "And here." ♥️

Is anyone surprised that the British authorities do not care about war graves of non-white soldiers. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

"I'd push back first of all and say it's not a belief, trans women are women, trans men are men and also non-binary identities also exist..." It's so easy to stand up for trans people and Polanski shows that time and time again

Zack absolutely SMASHED this. 💚💚💚

“The BBC has upheld a complaint against the newsreader Martine Croxall after she changed the term “pregnant people” to “women” and raised her eyebrows during a news channel broadcast in the summer.” This was about her imposing her personal ideological views while working in a professional context.

Great to see @zackpolanski.bsky.social on @skynewsrss.bsky.social this morning standing up for trans people. It’s clear that Trevor Phillips was trying to trap Zack by not giving him all the facts! Martine Croxall not only eye rolled, she changed a direct quote - unethical for a journalist!

If they only knew how to zoom in, they might just be able to make out the red poppy too....

To all pro-trans groups, the deadline for submissions to GANHRI for the next session is around 1 March 2026, 😉😉 ganhri.org/wp-content/u...

"An article published by The Times suggested that Iran was making donations to Palestine Action "via proxies" It turned out that the story was allegedly planted in the British press by a PR firm working for an Israeli weapons company. Read the full report from Joshua Carroll: novara.media/4hLyeUx "

"Reporting on the anti-trans demo, I was immediately met with cries of “He’s a man!” as I moved into their crowd with my assistant. Speaking with a police liaison officer, she said our presence was “causing a lot of tension’’. ' northwestbylines.co.uk/news/equalit...

Wales Green Conference this weekend has been the biggest in our party's history - and it was wonderful to be in Cardiff yesterday with a hugely energised conference! Coming up this morning, I'll be in the Sky News studio and remember to join.greenparty.org.uk!

I guess the people protesting on behalf of Palestine should start calling themselves "Zionism critical". Either they'll finally gain some legitimization of their beliefs and their right to express them, or else the hypocrisy will be put on full display for more people to see.

And that's before I even get to enabling a genocide by selling Israel weapons and conducting surveillance flights for them. And arresting over 2000 pensioners and claiming they were terrorists for protesting against that genocide. Nothing would make me vote Labour again

This aged like fine milk.

Several children and young people have now died as a direct result of Labour banning their gender affirming care. The coroners have been very clear that the lack of GA care was causative. What messaging do you think would make that more palatable?

Nigel #FarageRiots merry band of #FlagShaggers cost the UK money! observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

It blows my mind that there are real people who see a post like this and actually believe the whole “Christmas is being cancelled by Muslims” BS 🙄 Let’s have a quick look at what’s happening to Sheffield so you can put your Express reading uncle’s mind at ease!😆 1/15 🧵

Folk apparently found helpful my exposition of what I have been calling the ‘Hansard Gap’ in the For Women Scotland judgment. At the suggestion of a correspondent, I am going to set out the myriad other difficulties with this judgment one by one over coming weeks.

So Labour criticise @zackpolanski.bsky.social & the Greens for offering ‘simple solutions’ Step 1 for a compassionate new Govt for the 99% not the 1%: STOP MAKING THINGS WORSE 2: Low-hanging fruit that would improve lives & establish direction 3: Complex integrated solutions (see Green policies)

🔥 Harrods: What do the survivors do now?? The courts, the redress scheme, the police — all form part of the same legal abyss. ◾ Survivors cannot access the courts, let alone for trafficking ◾ Harrods’ “redress” is run by the institution itself ◾ The Met refuses to name the crimes as trafficking

Gavin newsom took care of the homeless problem by stealing their shit. Sit the fuck down with your propaganda from his own office. youtu.be/ERftQvyQBUA?...
