This sounds rather like Clinton “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell” but even more fucked up

It does set out that Trans+ service personnel are not required to out themselves to any MoD representative, but adds that this does not mean that an individual can
never lawfully be asked to disclose or confirm their sex:

Obviously the British military + civil service segregating trans employees is horrific morally but presumably it’s also a security risk cause a bunch of people with access to potentially sensitive info now have strong incentive to leak it, or are vulnerable to blackmail by hostile powers?

I don’t give a fuck about what the public ‘reckon’ about diagnoses, especially when the reckoning is in large part due to a concerted media campaign over recent years.

Seeing as you retweeted this @torstenbell.bsky.social, maybe have policies that aren’t so anti-trans, anti-migrant, and anti-foreigners as a party, eh? Talk is cheap.

Musk is again just doing what he always does: spreading lies and conning people to keep inflating his companies’ stock prices. It’s really sad to see so many people (and bots) falling for this kind of BS again. 🙄

This may be the favourite slide I have designed for our first year core module this year.

Screenshot of a Powerpoint slide. On the left hand side is the heading 'your voice is more important han the computer's voice, and a list of bullet points explaining that AI generated prose isn't very good. On the right is a photo of a person in a Hello Kitty costume, wearing a pink princess dress, holding a sledgehammer and about to smash a laptop that is sitting at her feet.

i think it's easier to just say "immigration is fine" than come up with increasingly strained descriptions of why moving from france to germany for 6 years or whatever isn't immigration somehow

Freedom of Movement is not Immigration, it's the equivalent of living in Worcestershire and travelling to London to work during the week and renting a flat. Which I did for nearly ten years.

And before that I did the same to Leiden in NL, though it was company accommodation.

There’s really only one way to mark the 99th anniversary of Roger Moore’s birth

Marc Haynes’ story: As a 7 year old in about 1983, … I was with my grandad in Nice Airport and saw Roger Moore Sitting at the departure gate, ... told my granddad i'd just seen James Bond and asked if we could go over so I could get his autograph. …so we walked over and he popped me in front of Roger Moore, with the words "my grandson says you're famous. Can you sign this?" As charming as you'd expect, Roger asks my name and signs the back of my plane ticket... I'm ecstatic, but …I glance down at the signature. … it definitely doesn't say 'James Bond'. ...I tell my grandad he's signed it wrong, … so my grandad heads back to Roger Moore...
"he says you've signed the wrong name. He says your name is James Bond." Roger Moore's face crinkled up with realisation and he beckoned me over. …he leant over, looked from side to side, raised an eyebrow and in a hushed voice said "I have to sign my name as 'Roger Moore because otherwise...Blofeld might find out I was here." He asked me not to tell anyone …and thanked me for keeping his secret. I went back to our seats, my nerves absolutely jangling with delight. My grandad asked me if he'd signed 'James Bond.' No, I said.
I'd got it wrong. I was working with James Bond now. Many years later, I was working on a recording that involved UNICEF, and Roger Moore was doing a piece to camera as an ambassador. He was lovely and while the cameramen were setting up, I told him the story. He …had a chuckle and said "Well, I don't remember but I'm glad you got to meet James Bond." So that was lovely. And then he did something so brilliant. After the filming, he walked past me in the corridor, heading out to his car - but as he got level, he paused looked both ways, raised an eyebrow and in a hushed voice said, "Of course I remember our meeting in Nice. But I didn't say anything in there, because those cameramen - any one of them could be working for Blofeld."
I was as delighted at 30 as I had been at 7. What a man. What a tremendous man.
