Fuck me, the amount of people trying to get this Manchester City cheating scandal to be called 'The Pepstein files' is going to drive me off a cliff. Take a second and think where the joke is here and what you are using to land it. Then stop it.

I had gone into town and as I walked past a shop I made very brief eye contact with a man that looked like he was in his late 20s. A minute or so later he came running after me, to tell me how good looking I was and then left. I was 15 and in my school uniform.

Not only did this cis man cisplain the fight for trans rights to a trans man, he has now gone through and blocked several trans people for questioning his response. Fellow cis people - never ever do this, especially if you're a rep/member for the government currently endangering trans people.

The rhetoric of ‘perfection’ is so telling here, just completely minimises the harm being done RIGHT NOW to trans people and immigrants and other vulnerable people. Violence is viewed as an ‘imperfection’, and anyone speaking out against it is seen as ‘cynical’ or ‘negative’.
A post from user Sarah Murphy which reads, “Some v negative responses to posts about Burnham. I understand the cynicism. What I don't understand is the refusal to wait and see and to look for the positives. Politics cannot be about perfection. It's compromise. It's effective communication... and persuasion. Why not be prepared to be persuaded?”

I guess wanting trans people to be allowed to exist in public life, disabled people to be able to afford to live and refugees not to being hounded by racist mobs is “perfectionism” now.

One of the best episodes over the last 10 years was Heaven Sent, an episode that was literally just Peter Capaldi monologuing for an hour. Doctor Who doesn't need Hollywood levels of standards and creativity, the last few seasons prove that it doesn't work.

I posted a heartbreaking update about immigration stuff and included a small handwritten note attached to it, and my handwriting was criticized. In any other circumstances, it wouldn't bother me much. But considering the circumstances, it made me sad that that's what mattered. Really really sad.

Want to smash up hotels and homes, because you're a violent racist thug? Totally fine, you have "legitimate concerns" But you want to protect your community against a march that would bring violence to your community and so block the road to stop it? Illegal protest, you're wrong for doing so.

Chris Bryant is so ill-informed on this matter, he should resign immediately in all honesty. The “ordinary people” he speaks of are the ones lining the streets in protest to the sectarian bigotry of the Orange Order.

DUP leader Gavin Robinson has been holding a press conference.

He insists the Orange Order who had gathered at Drumcree Church at 8am for the controversial parade can wait hours, days, and months to march down Garvaghy Road.

“If it takes another 28 hours, if it takes another 28 days they will show the same steadfast determination and patience and a willingness to uphold the law that’s been there for the last 28 years,” Robinson told reporters in Belfast.

To be absolutely honest, for this particular election, I'm not concerned about 'ultimately'. Because if MAGA stays in power, not only will there NEVER be human rights for trans people, they'll be rounded up and killed or put away in camps. Democrats won't do that right now.

NHS nurse shortage far worse than official figures suggest, warns RCN

The NHS in England is facing a significantly larger nursing workforce crisis than official vacancy figures suggest, according to a new report from the Royal College of Nursing.

The report, In Short Supply: Estimating the Shortfall of Registered Nurses in the NHS in England, estimates that the health service is currently lacking around 55,000 registered nurses needed to provide safe patient care. This figure is more than double the official NHS vacancy count of 23,046 recorded in August 2026.

The findings highlight growing concerns about the ability of NHS organisations to meet increasing patient demand, with workforce growth failing to keep pace with what experts believe is required.The latest NHS Scotland workforce statistics, published 2 June, show that gaps in the nursing and midwifery workforce across NHS Scotland are leading to continued reliance on supplementary staffing, with the cost of bank staffing increasing by £37.6m compared to last year.

The statistics show that the use of agency nursing and midwifery staff has continued to decrease, following the Scottish government restricting this to exceptional circumstances only. In 2025-26, the cost of agency staff was £34.5m.Nurses and midwives in NHS Lothian are being "ground down by a vicious cycle" as figures show almost 400,000 nursing and midwifery hours were lost to mental health-related sickness in 2025/26

Patient care across NHS Lothian is being undermined by a "vicious cycle" of nurse burnout, excessive workloads and staff shortages, a union has warned.

The Royal College of Nursing (RCN) Scotland said severe workplace pressures are driving exhausted staff to long-term sickness, threatening the delivery of safe and effective care at NHS Lothian.The number of registered nurses and midwives seeking to leave Scotland to work abroad has more than trebled in the last seven years.

New figures have revealed 799 nurses and midwives with an address in Scotland applied for papers enabling them to work overseas in 2025/26.

That compares to 689 the year before, and just 248 in 2018/19 a rise of more than 222%.

The number has risen steadily, with the bulk of medics going to Australia and the US to explore new opportunities.

The Royal College of Nurses Scotland described the figures are "worrying".
