It doesn't really matter, but thanks. I'm in Marsden & hoping we're on track (excuse the pun) for reopening tomorrow morning as I've just been told by TPE. Supposed to be in Manc & I don't fancy bus replacement 😬

Yesterday, the government removed vital support from disabled people. Today, the government will criminalise protestors who want to stop genocide. I opposed the government's attack on the disabled - and I will oppose the draconian proscription of Palestine Action.

This proposal by the BBC is explicitly anti-democratic. As @natashadevon.bsky.social and others have pointed out, more women are moving to the Green party than are men going to Reform - yet the national broadcaster is falling over itself to pander to the extreme right. Why?

Of course, we should never forget The Holocaust but we also know that the word holocaust is a synonym for genocide, & we should never forget any of them. Those who were so horrendously oppressed by the Nazis have themselves become hideous oppressors of Palestinians

Far be it from me to suggest that Allison Pearson’s characteristic journalistic rigour has misfired, but in her haste to portray Lucy Connolly as a non-racist victim of injustice - punished for a single, fleeting misguided tweet - Ms Pearson does not appear to have researched her subject’s views.

Left(ists), 'centrists', progressives... whatever faux-left liberals want to call themselves still haven't got it. Starmer's rise, Corbyn's demise, was a coup, classic entryism designed to destroy Labour. The Tory party isn't dead, it just has a new name. www.dumptheguardian.com/commentisfre...
