Right hates trans people - most public go "it's the right, they're nuts". So-called left join in - "Well now, what's going on, there must be an issue if they agree!" It's why the Guardian/Labour going anti-trans is, ultimately, more much more harmful than the Times/Telegraph/Tories doing it.

So I'm heading into Motorsport Manager. Not sure if this means I have to survive the year without being fired, but as long as I don't blow all of the team's money and make our objective to just finish the season even if we're last, I think I should be fine?

The EHRC have been giving privileged access to gender critical campaigners again today. I will say, I do find it interesting how much these campaigners are now vocally aligning themselves more with Christian nationalists.

BASH BACK @bashback.bsky.social · 26/07/2026
Here is our full response to Lord Walney's article calling for us to be proscribed as a terrorist organisation:
Lord Walney (former government advisor on ‘political violence’) has published a Times article calling for BASH BACK to be ‘proscribed’. this would officially designate BASH BACK as a terrorist group
and make it a crime to support us.

We completely reject the idea that we are a "terrorist" group. WE ARE a non-violent direct action group that demands the total liberation of trans people, and opposes the rising tide of anti-trans bigotry.

As our action guide states: “we do not condone causing physical harm to any human being”. 

We take action to defend ourselves and our community from violence.threatening a non-violent group of queer activists with proscription, the day after a horrific right-wing terrorist attack on berlin pride, smacks of cruel double standards.

the british state has encouraged fascist thugs to rampage through the streets, sat back as far-right parties surged in membership and done nothing as muslims, disabled people and queers are subjected to  violence and threats by the right.

yet its lackeys like walney roar into action to label bash back as “terrorists” for engaging in non-violent direct action.

proscription is a tool of control wielded by the ruling class against those who challenge their power.

BASH BACK @bashback.bsky.social · 27/07/2026
The article has now been amended to include our comments.
In a statement posted on social media, Bash Back said: “We completely reject the idea that we are a ‘terrorist’ group. We are a non-violent direct action group that demands the total liberation of trans people, and opposes the rising tide of anti-trans bigotry.”

The group said its action guide stated: “We do not condone causing physical harm to any human being”, and added: “We take action to defend ourselves and our community from violence.”

It described Walney’s intervention as “cruel double standards” because it came a day after what it called a right-wing terrorist attack on Berlin Pride. German authorities have said the suspect was an Islamist. 

Bash Back said: “Proscription is a tool of control wielded by the ruling class against those who challenge their power.”

There is a reason you know which bathroom trans people use and do not know how much your congressman is paid by the defense industry.

There is a reason you know the details of every celebrity political opinion and do not know the name of the private equity firm that bought your local hospital and eliminated the ICU.

There is a reason the news cycle moves fast enough that no story, no policy, no exposure, no documented crime by powerful people, ever stays in focus long enough for organized political response to form around it.

The information environment is not chaotic.

It is precisely calibrated.

Calibrated to maximize engagement, which means maximizing outrage, which means finding the fights that produce the most heat and the least structural threat to the people who own the platforms, the channels, and the politicians discussing them.

You are not being informed.

You are being managed.

The distinction matters.

When racists and bigots march the media has it plastered on every front page and insists this means the far right cannot be "ignored". When trans people and their allies match, there is silence. Trans voices continue to be ignored. Nevertheless we will not be silenced.

The term "biological sex" was adopted widely only in the last decade as a reaction to mainstream acceptance of trans people. It was rarely if ever used before that. By any metric, from legislative usage to search query usage, it's plainly evident this is a novel term only made popular by the right.

If you can get people to agree trans women have no place in women's sport you are getting them to concede they are not really women and everything else flows from that. They have said this themselves as they campaigned for the ban.

Britain is more than halfway towards reaching Net Zero. Most people don't realise this, not least as the fossil-fuel fanatics want us to think achieving it is impossible. Via YouGov


**UK public support net zero, but underestimate UK achievement to date**

"Thinking about the government's target to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2050, how much progress, if any, do you think the UK has made towards achieving this target?"

**Long way / less than halfway** — 50%

**Don't know** — 28%

**Most of the way / More than halfway** — 8%
