I'm sure we can all look forward to Patriot Platform becoming a proscribed terrorist organisation, now that PP and supporters are consistently engaging in property damage including leader Danny Thomas slashing a dingy which had an RLNI volunteer on it. Right?... RIGHT!?

Quite unusual for the BBC to be publishing a piece on the release of an indie game that has garnered little interest & wasn’t developed in the UK, but then you see it’s a game by Jonathan Blow and you remember he’s pro-MAGA, anti-diversity and generally very right-wing, so it makes a bit more sense

Braid-creator Jonathan Blow on making the 'biggest puzzle game ever'

So, Jeffrey Archer got into Oxford on the back of made up A level results and a non existent degree from an American university. Interesting to compare the different reaction from media and politicians to that which was handed out to Professor Jason Arday.

It seems unlikely that a BBC editor who e.g. made a film that “accidentally” accused Tory staff of screaming “Hitler was right” at colleagues and later quietly clarified this wasn’t correct, in an election year, would ever work in current affairs again.

All ethnonationalism is racism. Sorry to burst bubble. You can't run around criticising boat stabbers for their 'English patriotism' and then say 'oh but all ethnic groups deserve their own homeland' like @owenjones.bsky.social What, anyway, is an 'ethnic group' if not race by another other name?

Researcher from the University of Westminster recruiting participants for research on trans attrition (death and involuntary detransition/desistance). Contact: transattritionresearch@gmail.com

Background, cloudy trans flag. QR code in bottom right corner. Text over grey background.
Header: Request for interview participants -

Body: I am researching the attrition of the UK trans population. Attrition refers to whatever is reducing the number of trans people, which includes involuntary detransition/desistance, and death. My research extends to the whole of British Territories. I would like to interview:
People who work with trans people, providing social services or other forms of support such as counselling, advocacy, or social groups. This includes over 50's and youth groups, as well as people outside of London.
Community organisers who organise with trans people, including community groups, harm reduction, social groups, and mutual aid.
People who have been bereaved by the passing of a trans person in their life who feel comfortable talking about this experience.
People who have known someone who detransitioned involuntarily or against their wishes, or who desisted in transitioning due to barriers.
People who lost contact with a trans person they knew and are uncertain of what may have happened to them.
I am investigating the attrition (or gradual wearing away/down) of the United Kingdoms trans population, either through death or through involuntary detransition/desistance. Attrition includes people who have died, passing away due to various causes external or natural, as well as people you may have known who have detransitioned or desisted from living as trans for reasons in part or whole involuntarily.
I am a researcher at the University of Westminster, and this is part of my PhD project. I will make my research findings available to participants in an accessible format. It is my hope that this research will help identify where interventions are most necessary and where oversight exists. This may prompt further awareness and research, but also community and third sector projects aimed at tackling these gaps. At the least, we will know more about

I'm not sharing the Braverman posts because every single one of them addresses the wrong problem. The problem is not a fringe politician expounding on her 19th century racial science theories. The problem is a publicly funded broadcaster platforming and normalising them. Several times a day.
