How to buy yourself a needy malignant narcissist? Just offer him a phony, made up "Peace Prize" & he's all your's!!! No need for a formal ceremony as he'll snatch from the box & put it on all by himself. Both laughably pathetic AND pathetically laughable. ๐คก ๐ซฃ

When trans folk say organisations like Sex Matters (which have the ear of govt ministers) want to โeliminate trans peopleโ I know that sounds febrile/alarmist. But the fact is they simply want to make transition illegal/impossible. I would not be alive today if I could not have transitioned.

It's not asylum seekers who jack up rents, undermine the NHS, hold down wages and keep people insecure. It's capital. The role of the far right is to shift the blame for decades of economic attacks by the rich and powerful onto powerless people who have only just arrived here.
