This is the most perfect example I've ever seen of the extremely common tendency for British people to fantasize that whatever they're doing to minorities is reliably much more decent than whatever America is doing to those same minorities.
Quite incredible conjunction of news stories under the transgender tag at The G, The Trump administration, far right pressure groups, The "Equalities" Commission and the a Labour government, all essentially working on the same side

Feels like they're not going to stop doing this until a few key players see the inside of a prison cell
Right? It would be foolish to pretend all the troubles of a nation have easy solutions but more of them do than our betters are willing to admit

Frontline healthcare is probably the cheapest investment governments can make but they've brain genioooused themselves into thinking it must be more complicated than "give clinics money" and it simply isn't

For the longest time I honestly thought it was an Americanism that had escaped containment. I have no idea why I had this belief.

I genuinely think Feeds are a more useful way to follow topics than anything Twitter ever did. Pin them to your timeline bar and you can flick back and forth as you want
The only one I follow is Al Jazeera but I think the Guardian's on here too, but there are plenty of informed people posting on specialist news topics. Eg Ketan Joshi curates an environmental feed called Greensky

Welcome to Bluesky, Twitter refugees! 🙂 Methinks you have a thing or two to learn as you explore your new home 😜 We call posts skeets! 😂 There's no ads... yet! 😅 A few people can't take a joke, but that's alright 🙃 you're also allowed to threaten the mods with hammers 🔨

people out of work love to be lectured about how low unemployment is
You do understand that 4.5% unemployment is not high tho right? And you do understand that a MoM change in rates will not impact the unemployment rate the following month.

Interest rates are not high. And cutting them so people can finance their next trinket is not the move

The bad scenario I see people talking about (MT Sweeney on here e.g.) is a real face to face liberal arts education for the children of the elite and intellectuals, religious/patriotic charter schools for the middle class, and basically kid jail/work programs for the poor kids
There absolutely is but I think he's got enough moxie to go all the way to the top of the list
