Even the forehead's the same π€£
This is what happens when governments set up studies and reviews with a predetermined conclusion to deny support to marginalised groups. It's so important to defend trans and non-binary rights. That's why the work of groups like @goodlawproject.org, @transactualuk.bsky.social, et al is so important.
I wish this quote wasnβt still so relevant
So raiding Quaker Meeting Houses and arresting pacifists is a suitable use of police time, but when a bunch of gammon-faced racists routinely/constantly harass refugees in hotels, the authorities turn a blind eye.
Ffs.
BBC News headline: Trump: 'No deal with Iran except unconditional surrender'
In case anyone out there still believes this was ever about freeing the Iranian people
Mindblowing story. The UK met most of the costs of a key propaganda tool used by the Israeli Government to launder its genocide in Gaza - then tried to cover up the fact it had done so.
What are Shabana Mahmoodβs changes to the asylum system?
π¨Inhumane, definitely
π¨Illegal, quite possibly
π¨Ignorant, absolutely
π¨Counterproductive, unarguably
π¨Inconsistent with Labour's claims to be "progress, most certainly
π¨Costly, without a doubt
π¨Risking lives, one hundred percent
That should answer it.

Pay attention to the verbs. Pay attention to who gets named. Pay attention to who βsaysβ and who βdid.β
Thatβs how perception is shaped - not with blatant lies, but with careful framing.
The Gaza genocidal playbook is being repeated in Iran.
Donald Trump has admitted what Keir Starmer wonβt: this illegal war is being fought for Israel and its expansionist Zionist ambitions across the Middle East.
Not in our name.
If the fact we're at this point doesn't scare people, then I don't know what will
This isn't surgical. It isn't tactical.
It's straight-up mass slaughter. Of innocents.
This is some Crusades-level 'holy war' bullshit
Israel just put boots on the ground at the border with Lebanon. They cut off shipments into Gaza. World Central Kitchen is going to run out of food in a couple days. They feed a million hot meals a day in Gaza. They will starve. Bibi is running the show, trump is following. This will be a genocide.
Israel-Palestine conflict
Under the shadow of the Iran war, Israel finds another way to punish Gaza
The curbing of NGO operations and the blocking of aid due to closure of the border crossings are meant as another collective punishment.

In all the chaos, don't forget the kids of Gaza.
All border crossings have been closed almost a week now.
And the aid groups kicked out.
Its grim.
Don't forget them.
β‘οΈIPC bars Ukrainian team from wearing uniform featuring map of Ukraine at the Winter Paralympics.
The International Paralympic Committee barred Ukraineβs Paralympic team from wearing their ceremonial uniform for the upcoming Winter Games, saying the design featuring a map of Ukraine was political.
People who doubt the evil of this administration are either ignorant or evil themselves. Torturing prisoners in the guise of "helping them recover" from being themselves is not fucking okay. This nazi administration can't end soon enough. #TransRightsAreHumanRights
Lib Dem Leader Ed Davey:
"Tax exiles like Isabel Oakeshott and washed up old footballers who mock ordinary people who stay in the UK and pay our taxes... As we protect them, it's only right for tax exiles to start paying taxes to fund our armed forces, just like the rest of us".

I hate how accurate this tweet is.
The UK's permission for the US to use its bases in attacking Iran amounts to complicity in the crime of aggression. It drags us into what could be an endless war, without democratic or even parliamentary consent.
There has never been a better time to accept and vocalize that Jews and the Israeli government are not the same thing. Yes, the Israeli government has worked hard for decades to make us believe opposing its actions is inherently antisemitic. But it isnβt true. It never was.
I'm so glad Farage wasn't successful in obtaining German citizenship. I'd hate him to rig my country's elections, being foreign-born and all that ...
Most coffee shops are a lot for me, sensory-wise, but this sounds amazing, honestly.
NIGEL FARAGE: Allowing non-British citizens to vote in the UK poses a grave risk to our democracy By NIGEL FARAGE For years, I warned of the looming threat of sectarian voting. Naturally, of course, I was derided by the political establishment and accused of spouting outrageous hyperbole.
Grubby racist whinging from a pathetic loser who can't accept that majority of the public just aren't buying bigotry.
People legally allowed to vote didn't vote for him so Farage talks about stripping that legal right from those who don't support his racism.

I am so fucking tired of innocent people dying in old men's wars
I fell like it should be pointed out that the so-called 'pinpoint bombing' by the US and Israel took out a SCHOOL FULL OF CHILDREN
