Labour continues to troll the trans community - and to prioritise pleasing the right wing press. We know Hilary Cass was selected for her transphobic views: Kemi Badenoch told us exactly that.
So why is she running trans policy for Labour?

Oh do fuck off. All these big business owners are pushing the right wing narrative, as they continue to avoid taxes and mistreat staff.
I'm sick of them all.

Tomorrow's episode of Bold Politics is so so rare in British politics: real people who are unafraid to just be themselves for an hour because they know they don't have to protect any vested interests.
It's time for a clearout of robots in Westminster.

But there won't be, because Republicans hate brown people and LGBTQ people more than they hate Pedophiles.
It's also their Evangelical Ideals - They want to be able to marry 13 year olds.

This myth making around Starmer "the decent man" has got to end! He knew exactly what he was doing appointing Mandelson and the line he was just badly advised isn't working we don't believe it!

I will always be sad that I departed from Monkey Cage but the relief I feel about being able to speak out about abusers and bigots without expecting a phone call upbraiding or questioning me is a relief - so much anxiety expelled
Starmer gets worse every day - this apology is no good at all - Mandelson took up Epstein’s hospitality while he was serving time for child trafficking - this was well known - see also Zak Polanski’s letter to Wes Streeting #epstein #starmer #mandelson #greenparty

Nigel Farage's pitch to the worst people in Britain
Nigel Farage says that he wants to cut the price of a pint by 5p, and pay for it by re-imposing economic sanctions on British children for the "crime" of having more than one sibling.

last dressing down I got from Monkey Cage execs on day I resigned was for a Bluesky comment on some of the sexual abusers who had been close to Prince Charles - Mountbatten, Van Der Post, Peter Ball - I didn’t do it to be sensational, I did it because it shows how abuse is just ignored by power

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.
