My letter in today's Financial Times

Letter: ‘Irresistible’ rise of eugenics: something we must all fight From Natalie Bennett, Green Peer, House of Lords, London SW1, UK The other side of Quinn Slobodian’s op-ed, which online ran as “The irresistible rise of libertarian eugenics” (November 15), is an explosion in the use by many of the prominent would-be eugenicists, and their allies, of abusive terms for the learning-disabled and others they label inferior. These are terms that seemed to be consigned to history, but are being proudly brandished in America, by everyone from Elon Musk to Joe Rogan, who described the return of the word “retarded” as “one of the great culture victories”. Acknowledging that every human being has strengths and capacities, has the right to equal respect and dignified treatment, and the right to be supported to develop to their and the right to be supported to develop to their full potential, was one sign of progress in the late 20th century. We cannot allow the return of eugenicist thinking.

The new version of John Bulmer’s book The North looks fantastic but will only happen if it hits its target on Kickstarter. This is a book which needs to be published, please support it if you can www.kickstarter.com/projects/fru...

Asylum seekers, housed in hotels in Manchester, are reaching out in their own words to address the concerns of the local community.

Please take a minute to read their letter, & share it with the people in your life who need to hear the truth about the people they are protesting.

Guess what makes immigrants feel integrated, wanting to be part of their communities? Feeling welcomed, embraced, appreciated - like I felt from the moment I stepped in Scotland nearly 10 years ago. The people here made me feel Scottish, by simply not being xenophobic twats demanding I prove myself.
