Where did you last have it?

Probably better than the alternative, of an actual world war

I don't think that's fair at all. It would be lost in a stadium

Board meetings | EHRC On this page, you can find minutes of all Board meetings for the last three years.

(Most of the) missing EHRC Board meeting minutes have finally been published, up to 10 months late.
I haven’t read them yet, but there’s probably some pretty interesting stuff in there… 🫣🫣🫣

Sorry about that

If you have questions about @nionwomen.bsky.social are and what we’re all about, hopefully we’ve answered a few of them here!

Nearly two years ago in fact!

Also you've allowed him to persist in the lie that he resigned when he was actually kicked out

If this is the kind of person you want in your party...

Oh wow he resigned over a year ago lol. Reminds me of Maureen Lipman still producing 'why I have left the Labour Party' articles in 2019 after having resigned five years earlier under a different leader

Does there exist anywhere a person called Darren who isn't a complete cunt?

He’s Mandelson’s protege in so many ways

There is plenty of evidence by now though that Streeting’s transphobia is ideological. It doesn’t make him RFK jr, but neither is he being purely tactical. It only took the slightest excuse for him to kick the trial into the long grass

I'm the person who gets to spend my Friday morning in court finding this stuff out btw.

Thanks. It wasn’t ideal, I only had a couple of seconds to grab some images (FlightRadar was really balky and a bit delayed), and I wasn’t very well placed, but a couple came out not too bad. Yes, it looked lovely in desert camo. Apparently this aircraft had Mediterranean theatre history

This is the dumbest cyberpunk dystopia.

Yes, absolutely. Might is right

(For all the bullshit about the wholesome nature of Christopher Reeve Superman, let’s not forget that in Superman II he carries out a petty act of violent revenge on someone who physically humiliated after he’d lost his superpowers)

I don’t actually think they are. It’s white, β€˜western culture’ superiority through strength, violence and being above the rules. Mask is increasingly off

It’s becoming more and more obvious that when then say American, they mean white

I like how they’ve got the Dire Straits really high up in the mix in an effort to drown out that nasal whining
