Alan Cumming calling out the terfs: “Feminism is about equality. How can you be against equality? That’s what feminism used to be about. You want people to have as good a life as you. But now it appears: “Mmm - but not trans people.”

If this had been a Just Stop Oil protest the police would have been all over this. Not only would hundreds have been dragged away by now but the police would definitely have known about this in advance

The Home Office has serious questions to answer

[Governor Tim Walz @GovTimWalz]

Good news: he lost.

[Brendan May @bmay]

It gets worse and worse. Reform is just a party of deranged pub bores protesting about everything and anything. They have no solutions of any kind and cannot sustain even the mildest scrutiny. Not a party for government, not now, not ever.

“Protect our women”.

Happy to be taking part in another gig raising funds for the great work that @AmosTrust do to support the Palestinian people. I’m also thrilled to be sharing a stage again with @PaulWellerHQ. His commitment to taking a stand on issues continues to inspire

According to Nigel Farage, Iceland being in the EU Single Market, having free movement of people and belonging to Schengen is perfectly compatible with national independence.

I look forward to him endorsing the same independence for the UK: back in the Single Market, with free movement and Schengen.

Farage kicks off his press conference by saying "Britain now is lawless" and that we are living through a "breakdown in society".

In January, ONS reported that homicides in England and Wales were at their lowest since 1977.

Count Binface running a very cool campaign. Clacton needs to be made aware of the immediate boost to their economy in terms of tourism if Binface gets in — he’s becoming a cult figure in America especially.

[Bob Morgan 🇬🇧🇺🇦 💙 @Bbmorg]

Like taking aid away from the Worlds poorest and inciting far right violence and undermining democratically elected governments?

Irish dancers in Orlando tell Christian Attorney General to do one after he tries to ban a girl who is trans from dancing with other girls.

Listen to girls and women.

Ignore terfs.

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

This is exactly why we have Pride.

Because a few years ago this would have just been a hateful fringe figure - but this is where our politics is heading with a Government that kertows.

We will resist. And bring hope (*and* electing progressive politicians.) We will win.

"We don't have many representations of what it actually physically means... to be English, and team is one of those representations."

Musician Billy Bragg tells @katierazz England football fans could take inspiration from their more "relaxed" Scottish counterparts.
