We’ve been lucky to receive high-profile support since we started our campaign, and we know visibility and vocal allyship matters. It doesn’t come much higher than Sandi Toksvig, who’s done so much for women’s equality and inclusion. Thank you 🙏 notinourname.org.uk

Increasingly i am of the belief that polymarket bets will be the cause of the world ending catastrophe

“.. We spotted nine Polymarket accounts .. who made collectively $2.4 million betting almost exclusively on U.S. Military operations. .. “.. Now, here is the crazy part. 98% win rates.” @mediaite.com www.mediaite.com/media/news/6...

Please can the mainstream media remember that Streeting has been a close friend of Mandleson He's deeply untrustworthy

"Public ownership is in the public interest" says Starmer. Except on water companies where he will continue to let them dump sewage.

Adder bites infographic. I hope this will be helpful & reassuring if it happens to anyone else.

I have had the phrase "biblically accurate sleep paralysis demon" floating around my head all day and I don't know why

Frankly, Streeting saying this is disturbing and misogynistic. In fact, it further reveals what he actually thinks about women in general, and which has been there for all to see for quite some time. He should not be in charge of the NHS.

80% of arguments start because someone hasn’t eaten yet.

Useful thing to use here

Nigel Farage has been accused by multiple people he grew up with of extreme antisemitic comments and behaviour. Yet he's allowed to present himself as a champion of Jewish people. Meanwhile, our only Jewish leader, Zack Polanski, is smeared - because he opposes genocide.

Remarkable similarities with the EHRC which also made the choice to take up arms against trans people and abandon what should have been its priorities.

I don't want AI to do my day job or my hobbies I want it to do my dishes and laundry

Unsuprised to see the backlash against Hannah Spencer from all the usual suspects but good on her for calling it out. Parliament remains one of those places where everyday alcoholism, sexism and weird predator behaviour - that wouldn't get tolerated in any other workplace in the UK - still goes on.

I cannot over emphasise how important this action is. Most MPs don't know this is going on, and by the time the guidance is laid it will be too late. Make sure you email your MP now – and encourage others to do the same.

Honestly if sci-fi has taught me anything, "don't make the robots able to outrun humans" is right up there www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/a...

Back in the late 90s and early 2000s, when I was transitioning, Stonewall cared more about access to power and money than about queer people. By appointing a transphobic washed-up Labour politician as Chair they have signalled a return to that position.

I speak to a lot of people about JK Rowling - many once close friends with her. I was once friends with her. And they all say she is now very changed. To pretend she is not radicalised, to give succour to her views on trans people, is an astonishing thing for Kezia, as Chair of Stonewall, to do.

The big worry here is that Stonewall is in the room with the anti-trans activist Labour government when discussing who should and shouldn’t be protected by a conversion therapy abuse prohibition bill I've said this time and time again, institutional orgs like Stonewall will absolutely capitulate

We're going to have to rethink how we do recruitment in the AI age because it's ruined job applications. I don't think i can bear to read any more applications like: This isn't an issue of [x], it's one of [Y]. The implications are clear. [A table with comparisons] Evidence (in bold) is key.

Preposterous creature

When ideological dogmatism meets the reality of ordinary people's lives "Girlguiding has taught her values of kindness and compassion, and now she’s being told those values have limits and that limit is your younger sister" www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

15 years ago, I did my master's thesis on Harry Potter. In 2020, I threw out all my Harry Potter books. In 2023 (or 4, I can't remember), I burned the letter I had from JK Rowling herself. If I can let go of them, you can too.

Trans Community Cuts Ties With Pink News sophie-molly-reports.beehiiv.com/p/trans-comm...

Good morning I burned my finger on a piece of toast today

The world has moved on and there seems to be a collective determination to forget. But to ignore the findings of the Inquiry disrespects the sacrifices of those who held key services together and those who died. It would leave us as unprepared for the next pandemic as we were for this one. 18/19

Experts from SAGE, who were advising the government, testified that the government was not following the science in the autumn and winter of 2020. 11/19

🧵The Covid Inquiry’s latest reports have made one thing brutally clear: the first year of the pandemic - and especially the second Covid wave in winter 2020/21 - was devastating. Much of that devastation was avoidable. This 🧵: impact on NHS, impact on bereaved, and avoidable harm. 1/19

Been thinking about it since I saw JK Rowling posted this yesterday about the IOC's new policy, calling Imane Khelif a man. Imane Khelif was born female. She was raised as a girl. Her original birth certificate says female. She's always been a woman. But sure. "Men punching women."

It is striking how little media appetite or interest there has been for the Covid inquiry's conclusions

Mainstream journalists need to get to grips with why it is that the countries most obsessed with "great replacement theory" are those whose history and often existence are based on either colonisation or empire building What was "manifest destiny" if not deliberate population replacement

Over the last decade, Helen Lewis has written 40+ versions of the same anti-trans article. 2015: 1 2016: 3 2017: 1 2018: 4 2019: 2 2020: 4 2021: 4 2022: 4 2023: 6 2024: 7 2025: 7 It's quite remarkable to see them as a list, so I compiled one here: www.transgendermap.com/issues/topic...

Absolutely unhinged response to a comment i made on Instagram The post was a trans person pointing out the high rate of satisfaction with gender affirming healthcare. My comment quoted something she said about detransitioners: "they are the exception i am the rule" and i added 🔥 after it.

I grew up in this community and I have a few thoughts I want to share. A short thread. www.jewishnews.co.uk/breaking-hat...

So we're all in agreement that attacking ambulances is a disgusting, craven, and unforgivable thing to do, right?

In this essay I will argue that Our Flag Means Death (2022) is an AU Fanfic of Heated Rivally (2019)

This important. I’ve been doing a small amount of research about the size of the Trans Vote. TLDR: it’s bigger than you might think… 1. Trans and non-binary people currently make up about 1% of the vote but…. 2. Many of us are supported by close relatives, parents, siblings and children… 1/n

I am all for single occupancy any gender loos becoming the norm but there's going to have to be a cultural shift around putting the seat down after if you're a standing up pisser

My MP!

Playing the "am I ill, tired, depressed, menopausal or is there a high pollen count today" game

I saw "Savage" last night at The White Bear Theatre in London and it was intense. The performances were absolutely brilliant, and the story - of love, self hate and conversion "therapy" as state sponsored homophobia, via a (real) nazi collaborator & war criminal - resonates horribly with now.
