You don’t actually have to both sides this. The Jewish community in the UK is not the Israeli government. You can just condemn the murder of two British Jews killed in their place of worship and you don’t have to say a single other thing.

In addition, I think also: politics is about argument! When I say 'the free movement of services, goods, capital and people is good for growth', I am not saying it because it is popular, but because it is true. It is in fact racist to say that mixed-race people should be deported!
The idea that "the median voter will feel attacked" by challenging Reform over racism is certainly not shown by the data in this piece. It shows they may be indifferent. (It may mean a different important swing voter, who isn't the median voter)
Crying racism only hurts Labour
Activists like it, but the median voter will feel attacked.

This. You're not a good man purely because you don't do bad things to women. You are only a good man if you call out your peers when they say creepy or misogynistic things or joke about sexual assault etc.
This happens often in all male groups and not enough of us call it out. It has to start here

yeah I have that sinking feeling as I settle in to read another piece about the horrible things that seemingly lovely men do to women that...
...can the actual good men not just take this now. Read about the abusers. Ask hard questions. Come up with ideas of what to do.
Just take it for a bit.

it's going to sound gimmicky but I think that women shouldn't have to read the Gaiman piece but all men should read it to the end, just as all men should have read all the long reads about the Pelicot case, so many seem to still not realise the extent to which so many men hate and want to hurt us

Elon Musk is starting to risk getting Jess Phillips killed. She's been safeguarding minister for six months. She oversaw nothing relating to the rape gangs. As an opposition MP she was one of the most prominent campaigners for the victims.
What he's doing is a travesty.
