funniest possible outcome would be if Burnham did this and the cross-party consensus they ended up coming up with was the Malthouse Compromise

People can and should block whoever they want. However, if they don’t fancy becoming the main character for the day or experiencing a bigger pile-on…sometimes it’s judicious to mute and ignore instead

I think two things can be true 1. Labour have destroyed trans people's civil rights, and don't deserve faith from trans people 2. Fixing trans rights is going to need many different approaches which includes mainstream orgs/parties trying to address transphobia in their ranks

I doubt Dr Upton would have cared if the nurse hated trans women. What she reported to HR was a verbal tirade of transphobia and accusations of being a rapist. If someone called me a rapist at work, i'd go to HR too. You might too. As you know it wont stop there.

Just a whole load of horrifying crimes here where we can’t now say “if only the world knew, if only everyone could see”. The world knows very well and anyone who wants to see, can see just fine.

I want to tell non-celebs on reality shows, including Bake Off, that there aren’t in fact broadcasting careers to be had off the back of this anymore and they’re effectively playing Edinburgh Fringe. Better hope it’s for the love of it!

Notable that the speech ended with a call to action, “we all need to get behind this” moment. Reminded me of Mamdani’s comms, which always position him as just one of many in a community capable of making change.

Burnham "will try my best to find common ground" but fight hard where he can't agree for what he believes in: such as an emotional defence of the United Kingdom, not independence for Scotland (and his Dad not knowing he had become PM)

I remain to be convinced that a lack of vocational education in schools is, in fact, the root cause of the Neets crisis, as implied here by Andy Burnham.

Drop the triple lock/create a national care service is a proper policy offer. But I am slightly confused about setting out a manifesto for 2028/29 in late 2026 with years of governing still to go.

one of the things I find fascinating is that, even though I constantly hear about how AI (previously "big data") is going to improve everything, it's apparently no one's job to anticipate that the pavement will be full of bikes and the road full of holes at the same time as it's also bin day

You came into power and raised the cost of employing people, especially for entry level jobs and have been non-stop talking about how amazing AI is to boost productivity, which in reality comes through reducing entry level roles, and now have decided the cause of youth unemployment is welfare

With this particular piece (which is in The Cut if you are desperate to read), I think we're also seeing the effect of fanfiction without community. When you're actually *in* fandom, you all share ideas and enthusiasm together. When you just consume in isolation, you write....whatever this is.

I do have to question how @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social can claim she believes trans people should be treated with “dignity and respect”, seconds before saying she would ban trans women victims experiencing rape or abuse from shelters. It’s just so fucking blatantly dishonest and bigoted.

Kind of weird how Wes went from unquestioned heir apparent to tragic no-hoper, apparently all in the five minutes it took for everyone to clock Peter’s emails to Jeffrey. One moment it’s Tomorrow Belongs To Me, the next it’s King Of The Road, and no explanation.

Sounds like Wes Streeting has ruled out another future leadership bid •e
He tells a Fabian fringe event: "I am - for the first time since I was probably about 15 years old - not running to be leader of the Labour party, and it's quite a liberating position to be in."
Asked if that's the case "for now", the defence secretary says: "That ship has sailed."
