also (in Britain at least) part of the reason we adopted No Debate was cause we *tried* debate and producers deliberately allowed trans reps to be heckled and abused on TV and in print. Lucy Meadows was even driven to suicide! I’d be happy to have good faith chats but that’s not what’s on offer

The government of the UK has banned puberty blockers, resulting in trans kids committing suicide.

If Israel bombed a primary school in the UK and killed over 200 school children, I wouldn't think that was fair due to a governmental policy I despise and oppose.

A machine is more blameless, more sinless even than any animal. It has no intentions whatsoever but our own.

New York Attorney General Letitia James has ordered NYU Langone Health to restart the Transgender Youth Health Program, saying halting gender-affirming treatment for transgender youth violates state anti-discrimination laws #NOH8

Well, this issue is twofold. In the UK at least, negligence resulting in the death of a child is a crime.

The other issue is that these people aren't just killing their own children. They're putting the entire population at risk.

Also when the Cass Review says it relies on the York studies for its systematic review of evidence, how clear is it that Cass herself chaired the advisory group for the York studies

The TERFs have won many equally stupid lawsuits. I'm slightly heartened by the fact that they forced themselves into the Lib Dem conference and got short shrift. And their motion was dismissed out of hand.

I'm concerned that their modus operandi is to chip away at things though.

Former Chief Medical Officer calls out Streeting’s highly politicised β€˜trial’ of puberty blockers. Meanwhile @goodlawproject.org have uncovered a spike in trans youth ending their own lives because they can’t access appropriate care. This is a national scandal.

I'm a vicar in a small rural village. I could never say this to my flock because of the outcry, but Reform are blatantly opposed to genuine Christian values and it's clear that anyone considering voting for them has not been listening to a single word I say each week

I feel sorry for those people and hope they get the help they need, but that comes second to stopping them from killing other people.

I'm not interested in yelling. I'm interested in stopping them.

Refusing to vaccinate - for no good medical reason - is equivalent to running around in public randomly shooting into the air. Or driving drunk. Or dropping rocks off high bridges. Or 'treating' cancer with juices.

Ok. So what happens when they get someone killed? Because they will. And have.

Plenty of abusive and neglectful parents mean well, including ones who beat their children.

Good news, I'm not advocating for medical professionals to do that.

I am saying that if you get someone - especially a child - killed, due to irrational and disproven beliefs, you should face consequences for that.

Even if you meant well.

Agreed. And they do not have 'good faith questions'. Their 'concerns' were debunked decades ago.

Also, this is bloody ridiculous. How are we in a position where we might be forced to include filthy bigots in a political party that opposes bigotry?

It makes no damn sense.

Children are committing suicide as a direct result of the puberty blocker ban endorsed by Darren Johnson. Did that come up, @labourlist.bsky.social?

Darren Johnson: "The Greens suspended me for being transphobic, and also I'm thick enough to think children are being pumped full of drugs by the trans cabal."

Streeting: "You'll fit right in, mate."

"Left Greens and joined Labour" is a weird way of writing he was suspended and kicked out for being a bigot.

Darren Johnson was suspended by the Greens for transphobia so he's a good fit for the bigots in Labour.
I suspect he also like Labour values like genocide, anti-immigration racism, islamophobia, attacking the most vulnerable and always giving in to extreme wealth and power

Oh dear - he actually thinks the Cass Review was a real study? Goodness.

Even the TERFs & evangelicals like Badenoch know it was a fitup.

Dear god. Not only is Darren Johnson transphobic, he's actually stupid enough to think the Cass Review was a well conducted study.

Oh dear. Does he also think brain development stops at 25?

06.03.2026 16:51 πŸ‘ 16 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

He was suspended in May 2024 for transphobia.

Holding "Labour Party values" over Green Party ones isn't the win you think it is here.

Quaker Meeting House suffers second Met Police raid For the second time in less than a year, Metropolitan Police officers have raided Westminster Quaker Meeting House, arresting young activists.

"The Met Police may want to intimidate us into contributing to the govt's closing off of the right to protest... We will continue to hire space to explicitly nonviolent groups, with appropriate checks in place, just as we always have." – Clerk of Westminster Quakers www.quaker.org.uk/news-and-eve...

The lanyard thing is so fucking stupid. I don't even know what social class they're supposed to signify.

I'm so confused. Are lanyards supposed to be posh or working class? Because i've seen everyone from admin assistants to professors to cleaners to CEOs wearing them.

Nothing to see here, apart from washed up flop, Disco Rowling, slyly dredging up decades-old smears about gay folks and paedophilia.

If you are LGBT+ or an LGBT+ ally, I’d ask you to think really carefully about buying this reactionary idiot’s music.
