Can’t believe Sir Keir just went on the telly to announce that it’s actually safer in Dubai right now than in most parts of the UK

the UK is largely a remarkably safe place to live and tbh I think people here should appreciate that more

Cardiff is actually the safest feeling place I've lived in (York 2nd)

lived in Dubai for 18 years and I can firmly say that I did not feel less safe living in London than I did there (in case anyone is doubting whether right-wing grifters are in fact melts).

'Vast majority' of parents should be involved if children question gender, schools told School leaders welcome the "greater clarity" on how to handle the polarising issue for parents and pupils.

The UK just proposed new school guidance that effectively bans even social transition for trans students (using a different name, pronoun or haircut). It implements a full bathroom ban while requiring mandatory outing of trans youth if a teacher suspects they are trans.

The hypocrisy is off the scale. Does a puff piece in The Times. Then sends a notice via the press regulator telling journalists, those worthy of the name, not to harass him.

one thing that's great about Bluesky is when there's new Chotiner piece we all meet up like fans of a band for a surprise listening party
