Human Geography at Leicester is facing closure. Staff contracts are to end in June 2026; students are to be relocated to other universities, or taught out by a maximum of two (!) teaching-only staff. Other departments and subjects are facing closure, too. Please join the demo!

Did I miss a meeting where all the people who spent the first year of this murderous slaughter screaming at us to shut up about genocide got together, and decided “everyone” had been silent for too long

This - by an EHRC Commissioner - is a *defence* of the impact of the Supreme Court judgement. The impact is obviously, and quite deliberately, to exclude trans people from public spaces, and to claim that it's fine, legally, politically and morally. Absolutely shameful.
In fact, the judgment says that the Equality Act allows trans men (biological females) to be excluded from the women’s facilities, and trans women (biological males) to be excluded from the men’s. This might happen if, for example, a trans person looks so much like a person of the opposite biological sex that it would be disruptive to accommodate them in the single-sex service.

Undoubtedly this creates a double bind for trans people, and lawful solutions that preserve dignity and enable the full participation of trans people in public life must be found. An obvious one is to provide additional mixed-sex spaces alongside single-sex ones.

The violent rage against trans people because they won't roll over and die is quite something isn't it

Katy is right about this, as usual, and further, what this ruling does it basically make it unsafe to be a non-feminine woman, or one who doesn't meet the beauty standard generally, in public. It's a movement to push women back into the domestic sphere.

I expected to find something of a political sideshow at NatCon; instead, I found a movement, perhaps the only one I’d encountered during my time in D.C.

More planning nonsense from the government. - people have a democratic right to a say about land use change - this will lead to worse outcomes environmentally & ecologically - endless economic growth is a dubious goal in a world where we are hitting limits www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

something that is especially clear if you have studied colonialism a bit: a load bearing aspect of maintaining even a semblance of democracy (or defending a sitting autocracy from democracy) is having a military that is unwilling to kill its own citizens

Once again here to say that just “bulldozing the planning system” won’t solve the housing crisis. It’ll funnel yet more profit into developers pockets & we will be left with unaffordable & inaccessible homes

As I hope we made quite clear: rent controls are vulnerable even once instituted. There are a legion of hawkish lobbyists trying to water down Scotland's Housing Bill before it even gets out the gates: it should go without saying, if you're not already a member, JOIN @living-rent.bsky.social !

fascism is stopped when enough people say one of two things: 1) "nah, I'm not doing that" 2) "nah, you're not doing that" a lot of people want to imagine how they'll say the second thing, but you should *really* start practicing the first one
