Ashley James, celebrity star of Good Morning has resigned from Girl Guides in response to their exclusion of trans girls.

I am - and always will be - proud of my time as a Girlguiding ambassador. As a former Rainbow and Brownie myself, I know first hand what a difference these spaces make to girls. I've seen it in the faces of the young people I met on site visits - including trans girls, who were every bit as bright, joyful and deserving as any other child.
Which is why the organisation's decision to exclude trans girls has devastated me.
Some of those girls and their families have now found themselves caught in the crossfire of culture wars they never asked to be part of. I am truly heartbroken for the trans community who simply want to live their lives, be included, and have access to safe, supportive spaces. Trans girls experience the same threats as other women and girls - they are not a threat to us. They are our sisters.
And so, with a very heavy heart, I will be stepping down as a Girlguiding ambassador with immediate effect.
I stand with my trans sisters today and always. Inclusion makes us all stronger, and I will continue to use my voice to fight for a world where every girl - cis or trans - grows up knowing she ngs.
N

40 years ago today the miners strike was officially called off. The longest running strike in British history without a positive outcome. The last coal was cut at Grimethorpe Colliery in 1992 leaving half of the village unemployed. By 1994, the EU would name Grimethorpe the poorest in Britain.

I wish more people understood that the anti-trans and anti-vaccine movements are deeply intertwined, and by allowing bigotry and conspiracies to supersede medical and scientific knowledge on the subject of trans healthcare, mainstream press paved the way for anti-vaccine rhetoric to flourish.

New from 404 Media: a widespread error on Instagram suddenly turned peoples' Reels feeds into a never-ending stream of horrific violence, animal abuse, murders, dead bodies, and other gore. Users wondering what the hell is going on. Some examples [warning]: www.404media.co/instagram-er...

To test this, the person let me login to his Instagram account, and I scrolled Reels for about 15 minutes. There were a couple videos about dogs and a couple videos about bikes, but the vast majority of videos were hidden behind a “sensitive content” warning. I will describe videos I saw when I clicked through the warnings, many of which had thousands of likes and hundreds of comments:
An elephant repeatedly stepping on and flattening a man
A man attacking a pig with a wrench
A close-up video of someone who had just been shot in the head
A woman crying while laying on top of a loved one who had just been shot to death
A man on a motorcycle stopping next to a pedestrian and shooting them in the head with a pistol
A pile of dead bodies in what looked to be a war-type situation
A small plane crash in front of a crowd of people
A group of people beating a crocodile to death
A few videos by an account called “PeopleDeadDaily”
A man being lit on fire
A man shooting a cashier at point blank range
