absolutely nothing wrong with that imo. do you believe the police are above criticism

Not once in this entire political biography of Phillipson does the Guardian note that she signed off on a society-wide toilet police regime to spite trans people www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

basically, if the "plans for Nigel" had involved a more drawn out and distressing means of execution he'd have been fine with that

have found this from 2018

This is prime centrist rake-stepping material. Farage under pressure for once but the libs are irrationally confident in Burnham so they feel like they can indulge in some good old fashioned Left Bashing and let Farage wriggle away again.

have you got a reference to hand for this btw? i tried to search for it but despite typing "Brexit party guillotine" it assumes I meant "reform" and gives me a bunch of stories about today's faux outrage

you're trolling right?

Yeah, can we finally say this out loud now? The Lemkin Institute is basically a blog. Which is fine. But it's not a particularly citable authority on anything. There is a reason I have never cited it. But the UN and CoE experts raising concerns actually are!

The article has now been amended to include our comments.

People are still eligible for PIP and the like even if they're working, it's not an on/off thing. You also don't "get people back to work" by cutting benefits, people are not turning down a job because UC is a fortune to lounge on

indeed, you "get people back to work" by supporting them with PIP, Access to Work, and indeed by providing them with housing and nutrition!

Are there or are there not people who have to work for a living and if they did not they would starve or become homeless (or both)?

spot on. today they're delivering parcels or answering phones, because our traditional industries have been gutted by half a century of thatcherism, but capitalism demands the existence of a working class and it has never gone away

Burnham announces that he is going to make life harder for people already struggling. But it’s OK because he is announcing it in “Number 10 North”. I stand by my view that he is going to be worse than Starmer.

all I can think about re: bill oddie is that rathergood “bill oddie bill oddie, put your hands all over my body” bit. I apologise, but this is what my brain decided to pull from the archives

My Trans Pride interview included a reference to Cass that UK reports left out, but interestingly the Murdoch owned NT News Australia did broadcast these words. ‘If you continue adhering to the Cass report, which has been widely discredited, you are complicit in the deaths of these young people’.

It is remarkable just how much Labour have degraded proscription and made it an entirely worthless "thing I don't like" button
