Zelensky rightly refused to sign the awful minerals deal, and so the felon and vance became vengeful children. Hideous to watch.

On 22 January, GB News presenter Josh Howie repeated a homophobic slur linking the LGBTQ+ community to paedophilia. This is offensive, wrong and unlawful. Join me and @GoodLawProject to file a complaint to Ofcom :point_down: action.goodlawproject.org/ofcom-stop-g...

The London Library Emerging Writers programme is such a brilliant scheme. If you’re trying to write in any medium/genre, are any age over 18, are in or near London, and aren’t yet professionally published, it’s well worth applying.

This is wonderful! I'm the archivist at The London Library and we'd love to know where you spotted it. We sadly don't hold a copy.

You know what? The EU & UK should put tariffs on US goods (from red states) in solidarity with Canada and Mexico. Rather than watching others get bullied and waiting our turn - we should unify against this bullying until the bully drops that behaviour.

The @Telegraph, @thetimes, @MailOnline & @TheSun publish corrections to their scaremongering on undocumented migrants in London. Imagine between them the reach & power of these papers. The fact is they are using that power to instil Trumpist hate & we are ill-equipped to resist.

The second terrible tragedy in as many days after the chewed wotsit fired aviation officials. But I'm sure it was DEI hires that caused this.

UPDATE: The Trump admin has expanded systems showing if a person applying for a passport renewal has EVER had a passport with a different gender marker. Trans people should avoid even routine passport renewals until there is more clarity about the updated policies.

If you stopped reporting him and his travesty of a government as normal and not the terrible and inhumane snuggle up to fascism that it is, I might have more desire to read your articles. You are supposed to report the truth ffs.

Julie Gray, wife of Holocaust survivor Gidon Lev, who joined Musk in his visit to Auschwitz speaks out. She says that Musk felt nothing during the tour & only "cared about how he looked." She shared this with me privately shortly after the tour, and I'm grateful she made her thoughts public.
I see people posting that Elon was at Auschwitz this time last year - therefore, his recent "gesture" is not antisemitic. I was there, too. Last year. With Elon. I am embarrassed that I have photos of this on my phone. My love, Gidon Lev, was the "special guest" of this photo-op event. We thought, at the time, that it would be good publicity. But I would not share the photo today. I chatted with Elon Musk. I spent hours with him and walked with him through Auschwitz. I stood with him, looking at the nauseating heaps of hair, luggage, and shoes flooded with violet light meant to preserve it.
Is Musk an antisemite? People, actually, it's worse - he doesn't care whatsoever. Elon, father of "little X" as he described his freezing cold son to me, literally does not care. He was unmoved by the experience. For Gidon, to be in the place where his father, Ernst, died on a death march - whether shot by the side of the road or having simply collapsed - was a huge deal. Elon did not care. He was about his press junket and his bodyguards. I was ten feet from him as he posed for the cameras of his entourage. He was utterly detached. He cared about how he looked. When he placed a wreath at Auschwitz and Gidon was overlooked, he walked away with the cameras whirring. This is Elon Musk. A sociopath, if ever there was one. To deduce, from this visit, that he is a friend of the Jews is desperately naive.

Nazi salutes, rollback of LGBTQ rights, withdrawal from the climate agreement and the WHO, troops to the southern border, pardons for rioters. Rolling Stone has got it right. I feel sick.

Yes, and having this guy on today's programme defending it and basically praising Musk is irresponsible. But mostly, it follows the kiss the ring model the British media is currently following.

What screams out to me with all these papers and media outlets reporting this story is the sheer willingness to elevate Musk and trounce their own government and PM. Beggars belief. Exactly what the US media did.

HBO waiting until they saw the culture had shifted to more overt transphobia to overtly stand behind JK Rowling AND doing it on Trans Day of Remembrance showcases how cruel and cowardly they are.

I did this last year, vowed not to do it again, but totally forgot! So obviously did it again this year 🤦🏻‍♀️However, I found that compared to my partner, only 1 arm was out of commission & it healed more quickly than both of hers. So now I don't know what to do next year!
