I’ve seen people forced to pack the little belongings they have because they were told they are moving, being put into a taxi to get to the office, and then being sent back in a taxi to the same place they were staying in. The HO needs to be abolished.
Dismal framing. Every aspect of most asylum seekers’ lives is controlled & paid for by the Home Office. They can’t work, are told where to live & have no autonomy or dignity. So they aren’t *choosing* to use taxis & don’t need to be “banned” from doing so. The HO just needs to get its act in order.
Government to ban asylum seekers from using taxis
The ban is set to come in February and any exemptions will have to be signed off by the Home Office.

Incredible how pretty much any sufficiently widely seen post saying "I think it's bad how people are prejudiced to trans people" inevitably attracts a whole host of replies going "But I don't see why you won't consider that trans people aren't real so prejudice against them doesn't count/matter?"
yes I don't really see how you can go "oh yikes these people have changed their political views incredibly quickly, mostly because of what Very Online people talk about on social media" and also think that people who went from never talking about gender to calling trans women predators are....normal
I don’t like subtweeting people I consider online friends, but there is a subset of people who are very worried about the ongoing radicalisation of our political elite but won’t ever acknowledge the echoes with the radicalisation of their colleagues on trans rights
