An important reminder to the Labour Party that the anti-trans extremists they keep giving almost everything to can never be placated or pandered to sufficiently.
They will never be content without the complete eradication of trans people. Nothing else will ever be enough.

It's important to give conservative politicians their dues when they're on the right side of an issue like this, because we want elections to be fought over housing policy and taxes and stuff, not demonising minorities.
Make politics boring again!

It's the inherent contradiction of the reactionary mind. They want the Restoration of the Old Regime to feel like a cathartic triumph over their Revolutionary adversaries. But of course, the Old Regime never actually felt like that at the time, so why would it now?
Like MAGA, transphobes have gotten everything they wanted in 2025. And, like MAGA, they've never been more vitriolic toward the institutions they've captured, more disgusted by their wounded victims, more ready to plough forth into realms of cruelty that even they would have balked at a year ago.

A prime example of how the far right can never be appeased. Give them whatever they demand and they’ll bank it, then use it as a new base camp to strike out for more and worse.

Cruelty is anhedonic. It rarely delivers the euphoria promised because, in the abstract, what feels righteous and joyful inevitably reveals itself to be sordid and small. Then it's "No not like that". "No not enough". "No the real battle, the forever war to make this feel good starts now". Forever.
Note how these awful people are getting exactly the exclusions of children that they demanded and *that still isn’t enough for them*: they demand everyone be delighted about it and kiss their arses for being brilliant.

Personally I think it shows the deep tolerance of Scotland that it allows so many kids to keep speaking a foreign language like English. Forcing them all to learn Gaelic, Scots or Norn seems a bit much to me.

It doesn't matter what language you speak at home, or on your first day at school - if you live in Glasgow, Glasgow is your home. Farage and co think multilingualism is somehow a bad thing. I know, firsthand, that it's a strength.

This is genuinely massive, like earth-shakingly big in terms of pushing back the anti-trans exclusion drive.
The anti-trans movement have lost a case they didn't expect to lose and really couldn't afford to.
I can't imagine them not appealing (near infinite money) but now the precedent exists.

This is like an extra layer of infuriating to me: it is one thing for you to want the law to say something, it is another thing entirely to insist we must believe it says and always has said that despite all evidence to the contrary and the most basic application of logic
if you genuinely want to argue that the Equality Act, when introduced, intended to make unlawful an approach to trans inclusion that has existed *since the 1970s*, I absolutely cannot take you seriously
