How revealing.
The left don’t think a pregnant woman can be promoted on merit, only as a symbol of ‘progressiveness.’
I may be growing some feet and eyeballs, but my brain is just fine.
Glad to be a Conservative because we don’t define women by their maternity status.
“The baby could arrive before the end of the tournament,” said Belgium winger Jeremy Doku. “I would like to be there.
"No father would want to miss that. I know that the federation is aware and we will see what we can do.”
This did not seem controversial. And yet, over the days that followed, those three sentences sparked a backlash against the 24-year-old.
The baby, yes, would be waiting for Doku on his return. That is both true and beside the point.
The birth of a child — particularly your first child — is a life-changing event. There is no substitute for being in the room.
You are not there wholly for the baby, even if those early moments of bonding are important. You are, in part, there for yourself. More than anything, though, you are there for the person giving birth.
Make no mistake: sport is a wonderful thing. It delights and diverts. It can seem incredibly important. It is also, for those who play it, a job. It won’t love you back. It won’t look after you when you’re old.
If Jeremy Doku wants to be there, that should be the end of it, writes @jacklang

When I was struggling with how elitist Westminster was when I first started in the lobby, she gave me an important pep talk on how we can't let privileged people make us feel like we don't belong in these spaces

Important News about about @Consensys v. Gensler. Judge O'Connor granted our request that he consider the merits of our case on an expedited basis: whether the SEC has Congressional authority to regulate MetaMask as a securities broker and issuer. Those questions would be considered alongside any arguments the SEC would make that we don't get to bring a case against them.
As for the timing of a ruling?
🎶It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas 🎶
Anyway, happy ranty Wednesday and here's the link to Labour's "Financing Growth" policies. (4/4)
**also meh on the CBDC but it's cRyPtO aDjAcEnT so for the purposes of this tweet let's just go with it

I'm all for Ireland 🇮🇪 like, absolutely pop off yas kween etc etc, but what happened in the UK? Just over 40 approved registered cryptoasset firms and the MLRs kicked in over 4 years ago now lmao (1/4)

Listen, I'm all for Labour "embracing securities tokenisation and a [CBDC]"** but let's not pretend there aren't a million other use cases for the crypto industry. Plus I'd love to see whether Labour actually take any sort of tangible interest in the crypto industry. (3/4)
Would be incredibly surprised (and as always, happy to be proven wrong) if crypto doesn’t get a negative narrative or totally abandoned at best in the UK. I for one am tightening up my seatbelt. (3/3)
So who was actually optimistic that the proposed secondary legislation on stablecoins and staking in the UK (as promised by Bim Afolami) was gonna get implemented before Labour inevitably replace the Conservatives? (1/3)
https://t.co/NH6Lj289JT
Let’s not forget, crypto is an interest bolstered by the Tories. Labour folks are not going to expend as much energy on crypto policies and legislation, notwithstanding any dismay industry people might feel about that. (2/3)
I’m betting we’ll see 3-4 more Wells Notices before May is over*
*Disclaimer: I have zero foundational basis in coming up with this number lmao
