What I will never understand #47754
Why didn't the Labour govt make the eradication of child poverty it's no.1 aim from day 1? Getting rid of 2 child straightaway, adding the benefits cap. Great optics, would have given them such good will. Instead they are being dragged there kicking and screaming.
1/5 Labour’s Child Poverty Strategy marks a step forward. Its aim is to ease the stress and suffering of around 550,000 children and families. This only counts if backed by clear targets and funding.

The cognitive dissonance between Twitter and Bluesky on Girlguiding and Women's Institute policy change is a thing to behold. Where are the British commentators? Twitter. That is the problem with British political discourse - right there.

I think it's worth noticing how completely major media institutions have just gone along with the project of sacrificing the national economy on the altar of "some people in marginal constituencies don't like hearing foreign accents when they go out"
"Why do we put hurdles in the way of the people that are actually going to drive our economy? It makes zero sense."

The shift to a "digital only immigration system" is already causing distress and exclusion for many migrants.
Our work with the University of Warwick has shown significant issues with the system.
We will be launching our report later today detailing the problems.

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

We're watching the wholesale burning of every scrap of dignity afforded to trans people in the UK, their rights, their medical services, their employment, their place within society, their bodily functions.

It is a disgrace, and a disgusting stain on the government and media of this country.

Lots of associations are in a very difficult position because they are being relentlessly attacked by transphobes backed by massive amounts of money. The whole strategy is to bully these orgs into submission to make everyone else afraid to be inclusive. It's really sad.

My mum's done over 38 years for GirlGuiding. A Queen's Guide, she ran Brownie troupes, was a commissioner, even had her Brownie troupe at her wedding.

Tonight, bc of this decision, she has requested immediate removal of her membership because she stands with ALL women and girls, not just cis ones.

There are going to be so many girls leaving the Girl Guides because of this policy change and not going to Scouts because they want an inclusive girl-only space. Slow-handclap Gender Criticals, making life worse for women and girls every step of the way.
"Girlguiding had been facing legal action from a parent over its policy allowing transgender girls to join as members and trans women to volunteer in roles reserved for women, claiming it “exposes girls to harassment”
And presumably feared a sustained campaign.

I'm sorry I fucking hate the fact I have to deal with short-form video platforms. TikTok blocked my video about the Nazi content spreading across their own platform. Fine to make as many Charlie Kirk Sonnenrad brainrot videos as you want but it's apparently a problem to talk about it!!

A reminder that London is far safer than many major cities, that crime is falling and that racists hate both these truths because they undermine their vicious little divisive narrative.

Multiculturalism works. London works. And those who hate both things hate themselves most of all.
There were 93 homicides in London last year: population 9 million

In New York - population 8.5 million - there were
391.

London's homicide figure is 6 times lower than LA, 9 times lower than Miami, 17 times lower than Chicago.

And it's falling year on year despite the population increasing

From Falkirk to Aberdeen, Dundee to Inverness. Far right groups are attending anti-asylum protests across Scotland.

We spent three months investigating. People doxxed, attacked, threatened. And communities standing firm.

I see that Telegraph are going after the BBC and David Olusga for his Empire series (which is a year or so old?). Such a clear example of them hating a brown man doing history. He's not even slightly radical! Saw him in Edinburgh last week; he's the personification of mild.
