I am so bloody tired of government by electoral attack strategy. You WON, now get off your collectively irresponsible arse and govern for survival, happiness and prosperity, not the fantasies of billionaire US tech-and-sex-party magnates.

Turns out - thanks to some great fact checking by our friends @taxwatch.bsky.social and @taxjusticeuk.bsky.social - the billionaire actually moved to Monaco in 2014. When our media is owned by the super-rich - are they really acting in the public interest, or their own?

There is a rather wider minority for abolishing the Monarchy (about 1 in 5 to 1 in 4) than for the controversy of whether only white people can be English (1 in 10). It is weird the media classes are so rarely across how niche this 'controversy' is - about 1/4 Reform voters, but few others

Not only a fringe view currently being aggressively promoted for desperate reasons, it’s not even an interesting talking point as most pub conversations settled this decades ago. Less than 16% support for the (nonsensical in the case of Englishness) race essentialist view. Boring as well as nasty

It's clear many of these cases wouldn't be happening without the seemingly unlimited funds of the anonymous donor who is determined to push transphobia into every corner of Scottish life. This looks less and less like a grassroots women's rights campaign and more and more like a personal vendetta.

Or about climate breakdown. Or about any other protest that challenges established power.

If you put ten children in a room with a single large red button that launches all nukes, it would be a genuine threat to humanity. But it doesn't mean children are a human extinction risk. It means the person who puts them near the nuke button is a human extinction risk.
