I will credit Labour with one good idea. The mansion tax has pretty universal support from the left and right, and calling it mansion tax was a stroke of genius. Everyone complaining about it is getting roasted on Facebook, be interested to see what X's reaction is.

Imagine journalists asking MPs what problem this is intended to solve and not letting them weasel out of an answer.

Not a single major news outlet has covered this story. There is such a blatant, obvious attempt to suppress any and all news that deals with the actual facts about transgender life and experience. As the government rolls back our rights on an unprecedented scale, we have been left out to dry.

"Suicidality scores among the [study's] patients who provided responses dropped by over 67 percent."

"[O]f the hundreds of patients who started hormone therapy, only seven discontinued their treatment."

It's interesting how some resistance libs are lapping up islamophobic rhetoric from a blatantly republican account.
They do not belong here.

Workers who win their employment tribunals are rarely being compensated. This ineffectual system is something anarcho-syndicalists have complained of for a long time, and it has only gotten worse.

Anarcho syndicalism advocates bottom-up, self-managed workers organisation to replace capitalism and the state, aiming for a classless, stateless, moneyless society. it rejects elections, parties, and bureaucrat run unions for direct action, solidarity, and opposing oppression.

Mass uprisings in Indonesia, Nepal & Madagascar showed raw collective power. But in Indonesia, influencer led “17+8” demands turned revolt into reformism, proof that representation kills genuine people’s resistance and buries solidarity beneath politics.

This is going to become an issue very soon, I'm out of work, and my partner has just had to pay for car repairs, I'm not asking on our behalf. It's for a friend who has been living with us for over 6 months. We can't continue to support her.
I am thinking about starting a crowdfunder for some friends who need homes. I don't know a great deal about crowdfunding or how it might affect benefit claims (UK - England based). If anyone has any advice, I would really appreciate it.

They don't get the irony, though. These are the people you're trying to satisfy. This is your base now and they fucking hate you.
- It is entirely legitimate for the Home Secretary to highlight the overt racism that she receives for taking part in public life.

- Everybody should oppose that racism against her, whatever their politics.

- But it is important to make several other points about this argument about racism.

Okay, let's heal the rift with some gentle humour:

How many Labour MPs does it take to change a light bulb?

Two. One to change the lightbulb, the other to ask Nigel Farage if he needs anything else doing around Number 10 before he moves in.

I want to talk honestly about the experience of doing antifascist work and defending these hotels because I've been told I can be "macho" about it on here, and that's a coping mechanism. I'm tired, scared, and in pain. I have permanent injuries and scars. I've cried like half a dozen times today. 1/
