If a person’s gender is something we can only discover by asking them, and there is no objective way to determine it, and a person’s gender can change at will, I’d suggest it’s not something we should base policies and laws (or, anything) around.
The news from Kiev is so ominous tonight. But I keep coming back to this. Boris Johnson’s govt is complicit. It took the dodgy donations. It enabled the laundering of the cash. It shelters the Kremlin elite. And it failed, failed, failed to investigate
This morning, @WeAreSanctuary brutally tore down these beautiful 133 year-old sandstone cupolas on James Sellars' original 1888 ward pavilion at the Victoria Infirmary. A flagrant and unnecessary act of architectural vandalism. As if they haven't debased their reputation enough.
